From "The Alienist" to 'Insidious': 11 Top Picks for January6 of 11
"Planet Earth: Blue Planet II"
Breathtaking visuals and heart-stopping drama made this wildlife series the most-watched show of 2017 in the U.K., amassing around 17 million viewers across TV and online — 5 million more than watched the first "Blue Planet" in 2001. Now U.S. viewers will be given the chance to see fish snatching birds out of mid-air, an octopus that can disguise itself using shells, and crabs making death-defying dashes from moray eels. After spending four years making the series — filming more than 6,000 hours across 39 countries — the results are nothing short of spectacular. — Michael
"Planet Earth: Blue Planet II" premieres Saturday, Jan 20, simulcast across BBC America, AMC, IFC, WE tv and SundanceTV. Remaining episodes will air Saturday's on BBC America.
