Despite my hormone-induced case of ever so slight anxiety over the giant salamanders (rather creepy) and also the crocodile, I was thoroughly impressed with the Fresh Water segment of Planet Earth, as produced by the BBC and broadcast via Discovery Channel. Beautiful scenery, fascinating cinematography, concise yet eloquent narration by Sigourney Weaver (at least for this segment). Did you know there is such a thing as a fresh-water dolphin? Would love to have the entire series on DVD. Very very cool.

We have it and LOVE it, we also have Blue Planet which is all ocean. These two sets are the coolest thing ever, I think we've watched them both in their entirety now. Good idea for Santa perhaps...Matt and my parents got them for Christmas last year and we gave them to Jeff for his bday.
I've also seen ads from Discovery channel where they'll be running season 2 of Planet Earth. Check local listings for details ;)
