Welcome To Earth (Disney+, 3:01 a.m.): National Geographic and Disney+’s six-part limited series is hosted by Will Smith, who co-produces along with Darren Aronofsky. The actor goes on a once-in-a-lifetime adventure around the world to discover Earth’s many great wonders, from scaling volcanoes and exploring deserts, to learning about animal swarms and scuba-diving and kayaking. ““I’m throwing myself into the unknown,” Smith says in the trailer. He will be guided by various explorers, including marine biologist Diva Amon, polar expeditionist Dwayne Fields, photographer Cristina Mittermeier, and mountaineer Erik Weihenmayer. Welcome To Earth was filmed in 34 countries. All six episodes will be available to stream today, in case you wanted to binge-watch Smith’s globe-trotting adventures.
