Evolve - Sex

Episode 4

In the history of life on earth, sex may be the ultimate survival skill, because the bottom line is: reproduce or die. This episode looks at sex in its many forms, from sharks – among the first vertebrates to have intercourse – to dinosaurs that had to figure out how to join their giant bodies together to mate.

From the stick insect (that mates non-stop for 10 straight weeks) to macaques monkeys (about once an hour)… and finally to humans. This driving force of life comes in many forms. How will sex evolve in the future? Are we evolving beyond sex? In fact, is a time coming when we will be able to seize control of our own evolution… not via sex at all, but through genetic engineering?

Evolve - Jaws

Episode 3

It’s one of the most important developments in the history of life. An adaptation that lets animals kill, butcher, and devour. There is perhaps no instrument more important to survival than a strong set of jaws.

From the shark’s rows of razor-sharp serrated teeth, the crocodile’s overwhelmingly swift-snapping-trap, to the lion’s shredding canines–all have evolved in response to the never-ending struggle between predator and prey. But just how did these ultimate killing weapons develop in the first place?

Evolve - Guts

Episode 2

It doesn’t just take willpower to survive. It takes guts–in the form of a digestive system that turns food into fuel. Look closely at the role guts have played in shaping some of Earth’s most successful animals: tyrannosaurs, snakes, cows, humans and others.

Take a 575-million year journey that begins with the planet’s first multi-cellular organisms and ends at our dinner tables. Watch as live-action natural history sequences, CGI, epic docudrama, and experimental science help to illustrate our and our fellow species’ eternal struggle for survival on earth.

Evolve - Eyes

Guys, this time I'm bringing you this great documentary series called "Evolve". This is an 11-part documentary series that focuses on Evolution as the results of Natural Selection.

Episode 1

Seeing is believing … not to mention evading, eating and surviving! Learn how the eyeball evolved from ancestors of jellyfish who developed light-sensitive cells to the unique adaptations that allowed primates to better exploit their new habitat, while the ability to see colors helped them find food.

Through the Wormhole - Dark Matter: Beyond the Darkness (Last Episode)

Episode 8

What is the universe made of? If you answered stars, planets, gas and dust, you’d be dead wrong. Enjoy the final episode of Through The Wormhole with Morgan Freeman.

Thirty years ago, scientists first realized that some unknown dark substance was affecting the way galaxies moved. Today, they think there must be five times as much dark matter as regular matter out there. But they have no idea what it is — only that it’s not made of atoms, or any other matter we are familiar with. And Dark Matter is not the only strange substance in the Universe — a newly discovered force, called Dark Energy, seems to be pushing the very fabric of the cosmos apart.

Hosted by Morgan Freeman, Through the Wormhole explores the deepest mysteries of existence — the questions that have puzzled mankind for eternity. What are we made of? What was there before the beginning? Are we really alone? These questions have been pondered by the most brilliant minds in history.

Now, modern science may be able to provide us with answers.
