Queer Planet (2023 TV Special) User Reviews

A show we needed about science and facts

[santiagoramirezsaid · 9/10 · 23 May 2024]

Let's put preconceived notions of what is good and wrong behind. This is a great show based on scientific evidence of natural animal behaviour in the wild.

Any judgment you want to attribute to this natural behaviour is personal but I won't change the irrefutable scientific fact that this behaviour has a very common space in nature. Denying it is denying scientific evidence.

This great show is meant to illustrate a reality in nature, with facts and data. It's not meant to be watched with judgment or ideologies up front. True science does not work like that. Open your mind, allow yourself to learn and you just got a great show to watch! A big thanks to the producers and cast for sharing knowledge with the audience!

A Must View For All To Watch

[georgegrimes · 10/10 · 28 December 2023]

This documentary has made me very, very angry. For years as a gay man I have had society treat me with both hostility and irreverence. This abnormal response by the "normal" is the misconception that homosexuality or similar is non productive, which has been emphasised by our religions, which founded the basis of Common Law. In this documentary, matters of scientific fact completely dispel our human illogical, irrational and paranoid perceptions regarding sexuality. This documentary proves that same sex couples adopt orphans and raise them as their own and so much more. What makes my blood boil is that for tens of years, television documentary makers have filmed in the wild and have misrepresented the animal kingdom to us all. Who's playing God! Well done to all for this documentary. More power to your elbow.

This is a must-watch for nature enthusiasts and anyone seeking a deeper appreciation of the world around us!!

This nature documentary is a stunning visual journey that immerses viewers in the beauty and complexity of the natural world. With breathtaking cinematography, the film captures the essence of diverse ecosystems, showcasing the intricate lives of animals and plants in vivid detail. The narration is both informative and engaging, guiding viewers through the wonders of nature with clarity and enthusiasm. The documentary's ability to highlight the delicate balance of our planet's ecosystems is both awe-inspiring and thought-provoking. This is a must-watch for nature enthusiasts and anyone seeking a deeper appreciation of the world around us!!

Love this

Not only does representation matter, what it's so imperative that members outside the scientific community know that the natural world is very queer. We need more of this. Over 70 different species of mammals alone have homosexual relationships and that's not even the baseline of it. Brava.

We are in a new era where film makers now need to show the truth of what the animal kingdom is. It's beautiful and unique, filled with queerness and has proven that biology is not an excuse to be homophobic. This is disproving the biology take on far right and homophobic views that homosexuality and transgender is not "right". I hope they stay mad.

Highly recommend!

Highly recommended!

Important and timely

[hpfqbzyxh · 9/10 · 23 May 2024]

Queer Planet finally legitimises centuries of natural history observations of queer animals. This documentary may be confronting to those with idealistic repulsion to natural animal behaviour but will be validating to millions that are told they are "unnatural". This work fearlessly tackles the anti queer history of our most famous naturalists (Darwin). The cinematography is as good as any other nature documentary. The narrator and interviewees are entertaining but not made into caricatures of queer people. One of the most engaging and interesting documentaries I have seen and I look forward to more!
