Hubbs Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Those of you with satellite or cable packages might want to check to see if you have the Science Channel, which I believe is owned by the Discovery Channel and is pretty much what the Discovery Channel was before it turned into the Reality Shows About Alaska Channel. There's a series called Through the Wormhole with Morgan Freeman that's one of the most incredibly interesting shows that I've ever watched. It's basically an extremely well-produced examination of all sorts of mysteries of the universe—what existed before the Big Bang, if there are parallel universes, the scientific evidence suggesting that humans have some form of a sixth sense, how time travel might be possible according to the laws of physics—with each episode's story guided by the man with the world's greatest voice, Morgan Freeman. (Seriously, I would listen to him read the dictionary, even South Park has made jokes about it.) The reviews of the show are pretty fantastic, and I'm not just talking about reviews by professional critics. I just typed "Through the Wormhole" into the Twitter search box, and I've never seen results like this. It's literally tweet after tweet about how awesome the show is. Here are a few of them, and these were all found by barely scrolling down at all. I'm not kidding when I say that almost EVERY tweet is heaping praise upon the show. Through the Wormhole with Morgan Freeman is THE BEST show on T.V. i love Through the Wormhole with Mr Freeman on the Sci Channel... serious.. can watch this all night.. I'm addicted to "through the wormhole", so friggin' interesting. (also Morgan Freeman's voice is epic) Watching "Through the Wormhole with Morgan Freeman" on faster than light travel, this show is so awesome I only watch 2 things on TV: Through the Wormhole with Morgan Freeman on the @ScienceChannel & Sunday night @HBO Through The Wormhole w/ Morgan Freeman is a great show "Through The Wormhole" w/ Morgan Freeman on the Science Channel is 1 of the most amazing and informative shows regarding life & the universe Through the Wormhole. Smart dudes. Morgan Freeman among them. Mind blown. Can't turn it off. In conclusion, watch this ****ing show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweet Sassy Molassy Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 I love this show. It records to my DVR and I usually watch the backlogged eps with my wife. I love it. I'm a science nerd though, so the Science Channel is my ****. BTW, An Idiot Abroad (also on Sci Chan) is a pretty good/funny show, I recommend it.

mightymouse Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Gotta find and watch now. Awesome. I am not a gifted in the sciences, but I loves this show as well. The time travel episode was great. I had to watch it a couple of times to wrap my head around it, like the other episodes, but I really like the show! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skins_Fan82 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Loved that series. Anybody see that 2-hour special called " journey to the edge of the universe" narrated by William Baldwin?! It gave me goosebumps. It was a continuous 2 hour animation. They would travel 500,000 light years, stop, look around for a few minutes, then go a million light years. Then 5, 10. it went deeper, and deeper, and deeper into space. TRILLIONS of light years away and animations of what it might look like. No astronomists talking, no still photographs, nothing but a non-stop two hour animation. It was BY FAR the most amazing space documentary I've ever seen. I was blown away. Now that I think about it, I think I created a thread for it a few years back... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
