An Hour on Earth
Using pioneering seamless filming techniques, each film explores magic moments when Earth bursts into life - fleeting windows of time when the conditions are just right and animals spring into action.
From the rush hour just before dawn in the Kalahari, as desert creatures dash to beat the morning heat; to the hour after the rains in the Amazon, when the forest fills with activity; and from the hour of high tide in the Australian coral reef, this series takes the audience on a mesmerising cinematic journey through nature's most extraordinary moments. This is natural history on a deadline.

Saturday Night Live
Saturday Night Live is an Emmy Award-winning late-night comedy showcase.
Since its inception in 1975, "SNL" has launched the careers of many of the brightest comedy performers of their generation. As The New York Times noted on the occasion of the show's Emmy-winning 25th Anniversary special in 1999, "in defiance of both time and show business convention, 'SNL' is still the most pervasive influence on the art of comedy in contemporary culture." At the close of the century, "Saturday Night Live" placed seventh on Entertainment Weekly's list of the Top 100 Entertainers of the past fifty years.
