These episodes are masterfully produced and filled with amazing information. The Narration of Coby Batty is really good as well. His voice is a soothing and yet authoritative.
The episodes have been transferred in widescreen 1.78:1 aspect ratio and in dts-HD Master Audio. The episodes look and sound stunning. I was really inpressed with the clarity of these episodes. This is a very good little documentary series!
