The National Geographic channel has an amazing new series that starts on November 7th, 2010. It’s called Great Migrations, and as the name suggests, it follows some of the most intense migrations in the animal kingdom.
The National Geographic Great Migrations team spent two and a half years in the field, traveling 420,000 miles across 20 countries and all seven continents to bring this ambitious production to television. Seven hours in total, Great Migrations premieres in the U.S. on Sunday, November 7, 2010 and in 330 million homes, 166 countries and 34 languages, with four core hours chronicling epic animal migration, narrated by two-time Emmy, three-time Golden Globe winner Alec Baldwin. Additional hours include a special on scientific investigation of the mysteries of animal migration (airs 11/9 at 10pm ET/PT); a behind-the-scenes special on the advanced technology (airs 11/14 at 10pm ET/PT), dramatic challenges and passion required to capture these spectacular events; and an hour-long visual concert comprised of the stunning footage set to original music (airs 11/20 at 8pm ET/PT).
