The full episode is on the column on the right of the page that this is linked to. I just liked it because it showed quite a few dart frogs. It is really a great documentary. A MUST WATCH for all frog hobbiest. Post a comment of your thoughts to keep the thread active so others will watch.

Hey Dennis,

It was a fab show...I think you are not getting responses as there was a thread or 2 last week when it originally aired. However it is surely worth seeing again and letting others know who missed it.

Hi Dennis - the reason you're not getting to much action over here is that this has been posted a few times already. Here are a couple:

PBS - Frogs: The Thin Green Line premieres Sunday, April 5 at 8pm
"Frogs: Thin green line" on TV
Thin Green Line

It is a very cool show - I'm glad there are so many people watching it!

EDIT: Sally beat me to the punch! Thanks!

My apologies for the shameless plug, but if you are interested in testing your frogs for chytrid TWI is giving out some free test kits here ASN Chytrid Study 2009

I would like to see a lot more shows like this one on various frogs, reptiles, orchids and any other unusual plant or animal. Way too many shows on sharks, crocidiles and such. So much so that I change the channel when I see one of these shows.
