Life After People

In this special documentary that inspired a two-season television series, scientists and other experts speculate about what the Earth, animal life, and plant life might be like if, suddenly, humanity no longer existed, as well as the effect humanity's disappearance might have on the artificial aspects of civilization.

Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Overall it is a good show but it is very repetitive and it is too much focus on American landmarks, most of which are places that are extremely insignificant like who the f**k cares about a creepy elephant statue in Atlantic City or some random church in Boston. Australia was only in one episode and it was only about the Sydney Opera House and the Harbour bridge, nothing else. I think the episodes should have set up so certain groups of episodes would be dedicated to a certain continent and another episode about one of the capital cities.Take the episode "The Capital Threat" for example, it is an episode dedicated to capital cities and the only one one featured is Washington D.C. and Los Angeles is NOT a capital city why didn't they feature a city like London or Canberra. It would have made much more sense.

As it's based on scientific conjecture anyway. Where's history where's there no people to live it? And no I don't believe the monkeys will evolve. Yep, swap this with Sci-Fi Channel's Ghost Hunters which deals with histories of sites and lives. History's movers and shakers must be they so desperate to get it's emphasis off WWII they'll leap on anything—and such a stupid pointless anything. I've tried watching and I just can't. It goes over the same progression—One day , month, year....Blah. And it's mostly CGI—make a video game out it please. I'm giving it a 3 for the animal shots that said it could be transplanted to Animal Planet. Please History drop this; make more episodes of "Gangland", much needed new episodes of "Civil War Journal" hey even "Modern Marvels" which though I don't like all that much it provides the background of inventions. If it has to stay on History it should be a series shown on random occasions—weekly doesn't work to for me.

This movie was definitely interesting. I loved imagining what places like New York City would look like without people. The images of zoo animals' establishing an ecosystem in deserted cities really makes you think. The one thing that I didn't quite get was how people are going to disappear and all the wildlife still live on unaffected. I know that was not supposed to go into how people vanished but the entire premise was kind of like if we took off in a spaceship or rapture or something. I think that in reality, whatever causes people end our run on earth will affect most of the wildlife also. Regardless, this was a well thought out film that causes us to think of humanity as a very temporary part of earth's history and not the end-all-be-all of the universe.

Good work but relies so much on the fact that people disappear as they evaporate. Anything that can kill us till the last man shall have some effect on the environment that we live I assume. Even a deadly epidemic can not kill everyone instantly. From my point of view, they should have dwell on the possible causes of our extinction and create scenarios depending on these. If it is climate changes for example, buildings will fall before they rot because of hurricanes or what so ever.Another point is, once a species like human disappears totally from a habitat, a lot of other species must disappear as well. As we are the main predators on the planet, without our existence, it is quite difficult to say what can survive and what can not. They tell the story in a way that nothing but people disappears. They focus so much on trees and plants. If we disappear, the bug population will explode since there will be a lot of corpse to eat. After they are done with us, they can destroy the forests. What I want to say is, we already changed the ecosystem some much. Without us, before a fair balance, another species (may be bugs) that may not be as sane as us (I mean it, we do not destroy totally) may destroy more species in a quite short time period than we did over the history of man.
