Speaking Evolution

http://www.aptv.org/episodes/983162/Speaking-Evolution//

This brand-new show on Alabama Public Television (made by the Alabama Museum of Natural History) asks the question why do the products of natural selection look so much like design? Debbie Elliott narrates and many of the world's experts discuss various aspects of this question. Fantastic footage shot all over the state of Alabama demonstrates just how diverse and beautiful Alabama's wildlife is, while illustrating the narrative.

I have seen the show and it is incredibly good. I expected cogent arguments, good explanations, and beautiful footage, but all of these expectations were greatly exceeded by the show.

Disclaimer: I had a very small part to play in the making of this show.
