Documentary
noun
1. a movie or a television or radio program that provides a factual record or report.
synonyms: factual program, factual film
This show should not be in the documentary category because it is more like a reality TV show for people who would get bored watching an actual documentary. It gives shallow inconsistent information about a bunch of animals and then proceeds to subjectively rank them in a game-show fashion. The music is melodramatic even in the most unrelated scenes, the narrator sounds like he's hosting Fear Factor, and the information given about the animals are completely arbitrary. The information varies from their venom etc, to their shamanic purposes and how shamans curse those who hunt the animal without holy permission etc. The ranking criteria is non-existent; the show claims to 'rank' the most dangerous animals, but then proceeds to rank non-deadly ants, venomous frogs, and stingrays in the same criteria, which is never clarified and is totally absurd. I still do not understand their rankings, is it pain, lethality, chance of encounter? Can anyone imagine BBC Planet Earth ranking biomes or species, it's just stupid. On top of this, the experts who are interviewed are not relevant in their fields, and gives the impression that the documentary makers just interviewed whoever they could get a hold of. This is as documentary-like as a History channel special about Aliens and Thanksgiving. If you're looking to get informed about wildlife, toxins, biology, or anything factual, then steer clear of this show. However, if you just want to sit down with your friends, get drunk, and mindlessly watch a weird gameshow-reality TV-documentary mashup, for giggles, then this show will not disappoint you.
