Discovery's "Daily Planet"

Discovery's, Daily Planet continues to be the dynamic, educational, and informational show it's always been. I think it's great that Discovery has a show like this as it brings us, as viewers, close to the many different things that our world has to offer. This show follows a very simple format, we start off with a short introduction of what's to come during the segment, packed full of interesting b-roll, then we are introduced to the hosts, Dan Risken and Ziya Tong.

Watching this show, I'm very much aware of the overwhelming amount of information I'm receiving. Not to say that it's a bad thing, because it really keeps me interested and wanting to hear more. The episode that I was fortunate to watch, (May 02, 2012), which can be viewed here, was really fun to see.  From fire fighting robots to walls that change wallpaper according to one's preference, it all sounds pretty amazing. My favourite segment of this show is "Future Tech", which is a fairly new segment that has been added to the show. It discusses the future technological advances that are on their way into consumers hands and it's extremely good at dropping our jaws and does so with the help of  Lucas Cochran, "Daily Planet's" Tech Correspondent.

This show does it day after day, giving us new and exciting things to see and think about. it takes us on adventures and opens our eyes to the amazing things that surround us. The hosts are entertaining and pleasant to watch, which is always good, and overall, helps us stay in touch with what's to come in the future.
