A documentary following a food chain. Each time something gets eaten the narrator is just "well, i guess this is a _____ documentary now." And resumes as if it were always about the current animal.

This is basically what David Attenburough does

Side note: I still have to skip past the walrus part of Planet Earth. I will ugly cry for an hour or more, and it will ruin my day. I've handled a lot of traumatic situations with stoic resolve, but for whatever reason, I cannot compartmentalize the walrus tragedy.

I need to watch Planet Earth again, thanks for reminding me.

Turns out I was referring to "Our Planet." We have "Planet Earth," "Blue Planet," and "Our Planet" playing so frequently that I get them confused. Do not watch the walrus scene. Nobody needs to see that to know that we have to do a better job of environmental stewardship.

Cool, I was wondering why I couldn't remember a traumatic walrus scene 😂 I'll skip Our Planet, and if Blue is the one that goes deep in our oceans that's on the watchlist too

Don't skip it! It's great! Just don't watch the walruses.

Yeah, I'll leave an "F" for respect here, too.
