NatGeo Planning "Earth: The Biography" Mini-series

National Geographic Channel announced this week at The Cable Show that it will premier a mini-series event called Earth: The Biography on July 13-15 beginning at 9:00 PM. The mini-series is five hours, has been two years in the making and was filmed on all seven continents.

This sounds a lot like HD Theater's Planet Earth mini-series to me but that's okay because this kind of programming looks positively spectacular in high-def. I'd recommend tuning in.
