This is the website for a tv show (set to air in early 2003) about the evolution of life in the future, from 5 million years to 200 million years, done in the style of <a href="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00004Z4SU/internetinfidelsA" target="_blank">Walking With Dinosaurs</a>:

Obviously this is more science fiction than science, but it looks like they did consult a lot of scientists to try to make the future scenarios plausible, and like Dougal Dixon's <a href="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0312194331/internetinfidelsA" target="_blank">After Man</a> this sort of speculation can give people a better sense of evolution as an ongoing process. Anyway, it looks like it'll be pretty cool.

(most of the info about the show itself is "the concept" section of the site, although there are also some sample clips in the "marketing channels" section, along with the longer clip that you see when you first load the page)
