I think it is an interesting concept and would really make you think. If it is from History Channel it is probably well done.

The History Channel does good work. It would be interesting to see the world without people.

My thoughts on Life after People is that it would be truly something to think about the future as we do not know it.
ReplyDeleteI have been following the series on the history channel. It is a very compelling series. I would like to have the set.

I watched this documentary when it was on television. I felt so creeped out watching it. It's so scary to think about what could happen in the future.
ReplyDeletethis would be interesting to watch I bet

Very good documentary! Would love to see it all again and share it!
ReplyDeletefrogz60@hotmail.com
I saw part of this on the History Channel. It is a great show and very thought provoking.
ReplyDeletenovel idea, but probably very fanciful in relaity
ReplyDeleteThe very thought of life without people on Earth scares the hell out of me.
ReplyDeleteit will all start over again mverno@roadrunner.com
ReplyDeleteI'd love to see this
ReplyDeleteI think the film will present a harsh reality but a good wake-up call as to what we are doing to our planet.

I haven't seen the show, but it looks like something to watch and give some thought to.
ReplyDeletelife after people will be like it was before people...the way it should be...natural...

hmmm... life after people... sounds quite intriguing. people do suck.
ReplyDeleteI've been wanting to see this, creepy.

I think it's a wake-up call to the very real dangers the earth is is.
ReplyDeleteThanks!

A genetic time bomb in our DNA that could cause our bodies to simply give out - fascinating concept (rather than natural disaster, plague, or nuclear war causing our demise) of life after people!
ReplyDeleteIt looks interesting. I'd love to own this.
ReplyDeleteI think it would very interesting to see what a paradise earth would be if we were ever able to get rid of all these dang people! ;-)
ReplyDeletegood luck to all
ReplyDeleteWe watched this from our local library and it was definitely eye opening to see how much of an impact our being here has had on planet earth. I would love to own a copy of this film.
ReplyDeleteropeswing77 at yahoo dot com
I've always wondered what this would be like. I think everything would just purify itself eventually and other forms of life would go on.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds interesting, I often wonder how long it would take for nature to obliterate all traces of mankind if people were no longer on earth.
ReplyDeleteI read the book "The World Without Us", anbd saw the first epdisode of this series. This is a fasciniating concept-it amazes me how quickly our "footprint" would vanish from the planet. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteFrom all I've seen about this movie it looks absolutely fascinating. I really want to see it that's for sure.

Thinking of life after people is kinda scary. I hate to think that one day humans will no longer be around
ReplyDeleteThe documentary was well done, basically about how if there were no humans left on the planet how the things we built would decompose over time and how long till no sign of us existing remained. The special effects were fantastic.
ReplyDeleteI have not seen this documentary but am intrguid. I think it would be fasanating to see how long it would take for buildings and things to deompose. Also it is scary to think about all the hazardous materials what it does to the earth after a long period.
ReplyDeleteWooo Hooo Make me a winner!
ReplyDeleteYou might think the prospect of no people on earth is scary but as I watched the first program and now the first episode of the 10 part series, I don't find it scary at all....if they delve into the problem of what happens to the human remains left behind, then I will be scared!
ReplyDeleteMost of the people I know try to do something to be more earth friendly. I think seeing this would encourage us all to try a little more, and perhaps motivate those who do nothing. It's not for us, people, it's for our children.

I watched the special when it was on the History Channel. Very interesting show. I am looking forward to the regular series. Thank you for the great give-away.
ReplyDeleteInteresting look at what may occur
ReplyDeleteThis series is a great wakeup call. If we aren't careful we may indeed see this happening.
ReplyDeleteVery interesting and very sobering!! Thanks for the chance.
ReplyDeletemogrill@comcast.net
I believe nothing else could live here on Earth after we R gone because we haven't been kind to our Earth & it would probably B A toxic unhealthy place by then, thanks 2 man.
ReplyDeletepkbailey@charter.net
It looks like a very unique take on the future. I would love to see the whole thing
ReplyDeletejason@allworldautomotive.com
The series is wildly imaginative and beautifully produced, but what a bunch of sensationalisms. A pandemic disease may greatly reduce the population and the megacities will be abandoned in favor of a more agrarian lifestyle, but life will survive. Life may not be as most Americans new view it, but it wouldn’t change much for the vast majority of people currently living in the third world. So, the series if very entertaining, but far from reality.
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen this yet, but it looks pretty interesting. Kind of like I am legend
ReplyDeleteVery hard to even imagine something like that happening. But even worse would be being the last person left on earth. Now that would be scary.
ReplyDeleteI have been watching parts of this..kind of weird looking future. Would love to show my kids this dvd. Already follow. Thanks so much for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI love the show, it's very heavy material
ReplyDeleteI think it's a thoughtful, frightening and disturbing documentary. Please accept my entry. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteI've heard about this but haven't seen it yet. I've seen the commercials for this series and it looks interesting, as well as frightening.

I am completely fascinated by this subject. I do not have cable tv to watch it on History but I am hoping to get it from the library eventually! Looks fantastic!
ReplyDeletelife after people... is going to be a mess. We have the need to create things that aren't meant to last the test of time. It's all going to start being reclaimed by the earth... andin too many cases, spit back out...

ReplyDeleteGood Show
ReplyDeleteThis looks like an important and sobering look at our world.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds fascinating. I'm interested to consider how this perspective fits/contrasts with the Bible.

Life After People sounds like a real possibility, considering the Earth's ever-changing nature AND the fact that the sun won't be burning and warming our planet forever. I guess the cockroaches short gestation period would work to their benefit. And, if the ozone layer thins, the alligators scales would be helpful. Theories from scientists would be insightful and possibly sobering.
ReplyDeleteI would love the chance to win, thanks.
ReplyDeleteerma.hurtt@sbcglobal.net
I have seen a little of this and to be honest, it is kinda eerie to watch! It is crazy to see how much we have changed our environment and how it would overtake the landscape once we were gone.

My Wife would love this!
ReplyDeleteI have thought about life after people, but I haven't seen this series. In high school we had to read "On the Beach", which was about the end of the world due to a nuclear war. I've had bad dreams about that since then! The choices the characters had to make were extreme.
ReplyDeleteI think that a program like Life after People would be an appropriate way to celebrate Earth Day. Should be thought provoking!
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen it yet but I think it's terrifying and I hope it has the shock value to wake us all up.
ReplyDeleteI subscribe.

ReplyDeleteMagnificent extrapolative ideas here!
ReplyDeletetheyyyguy@yahoo.com
This sounds like one heck of an interesting dvd.
ReplyDeleteladycat713@yahoo.com
I saw it and it was interesting, but the narrator took obvious delight in the destruction of all things man-made. It was a bit disturbing.
ReplyDeletecaught some of this last season on the history channel and it was very interesting, love to watch the entire series
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen the show. I fully believe that this world will go on quite nicely without us.
ReplyDeleteI have always wondered what would happen if everyone mysteriously went away, and the History Channel took my idea! That's ok, because it looks intriguing and something that would give me more food for thought. I'd love to win so I can share with my other fanatical friends :) Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI've seen some of this on the History Channel and it's one of the most intriguing shows I've seen in a long long time.
ReplyDeletePart of me thinks it's silly for them to speculate(and scare many people in the process!) on what Earth will be like after humans are gone. The other part of me really wants to watch this DVD and find out what their theories are!

Among other things, I am an RN, so I know a bit about what goes on in Healthcare -- and the strange way the media is handling the current swine flu pandemic (haven't read much about it recently, have you) makes me shiver. Look outside, notice all the dinosaurs?? Extinctions happen...
ReplyDeleteI find this really interesting -- the book has been on my reading list for a while. :)
ReplyDeletethefatesarevicious at yahoo dot com
It's scary to think that we're all stuck here, crammed into and dependent upon this one lifeboat. All the graphic images from this show seem to imply no externally imposed catastrophe, like an asteroid impact, etc, but instead show all the buildings still (mostly) standing, decaying in place. Disease, apparently. Oh, joy.
ReplyDeleteMy thoughts are that everything would be as it would be except mankind will be gone. This won't affect the evolvement and extinction of animals or insects...except maybe domesticated animals will become a wild strain.

History Channel puts out some excellent shows. I'd be very interested in this DVD.
ReplyDeletetraymona[at]aol.com
The premise of this show is really fascinating, an eerie mix of science fiction and science fact, and I'm really eager to see the different ways the world would be affected for better and worse by the absence of humanity. Thanks for the awesome giveaway!

ReplyDeleteIt's an intrguing idea and looks interesting to watch.
ReplyDeleteI have not seen this series yet, but just thinking about it is quite scarey.
ReplyDeleteWe've read about this and are truly fascinated (and sometimes terrified!)
ReplyDeleteBut in any and all cases, we feel that seeing this and considering the implications is imperative.

I had heard of this sometime previously and thought I'd really like to watch this, I think it would be great to watch in our homeschool for social studies!
ReplyDeleteI saw about 15 minutes of this show while at a friends house! I would love to see the whole thing!
ReplyDeleteFrom what I saw ~it was truly amazing!
Witout humans maintain things ~buildings would crumble & the plants & animals would cover & take over everything.
Really make you think.
How easliy all traces of mankind could vanish forever!
