Synopsis
A seven-part science series examining forces that have shaped 'our ever-changing planet,' as narrator Richard Kiley put it. Produced in association with the National Academy of Sciences, 'Earth' covered areas ranging from earthquakes to 'nuclear winter,' and compared Earth with the other planets in the solar system. The series shared 1986's Best Informational Series Emmy with a multipart 'Great Performances' biography of Laurence Olivier.
