On the shores of the Andaman Sea lies a lush tropical paradise called Thailand, a peninsular finger reaching down from the Southeast Asian mainland toward the equator. KET presents a look at this exotic land with The Living Edens "Thailand: Jewel of the Orient," Wednesday, Jan. 26 at 8/7 p.m. CT.
Thailand's jungles are the domain of the tiger. Elephants amble through the dense forest while white-handed gibbons swing from branch to branch. This is a mysterious world of flying snakes and lizards, where cobra is king. Beneath the warm surrounding waters, brilliant coral reefs shelter bustling aquatic life while sharks, manta rays and octopi continue their timeless ballet in the shadows.
The Living Edens continues to open magical vistas to viewers through the expertise of renowned natural-history filmmakers. Its state-of-the-art cinematography creates an intimate sense of place and captures a world of wonder as it transports viewers to isolated, undisturbed corners of the globe.
The Living Edens "Thailand Jewel of the Orient" is produced by ABC/Kane Productions in association with Trebitsch Produktion International. The program is closed-captioned for the deaf and hard-of-hearing. Viewers can find out more about programming on KET by visiting the KET Web site at http://www.ket.org, a Kentucky.com affiliate.
Editor's Note: This program will be broadcast in HDTV in the Louisville area from WKPC-DT/17.
