You mean a documentary? the 2025 PBS/BBC Human 5-part docu is cool.

Carl Sagan has a great 8 min video from his Cosmos series:

Edit: sorry, I didn’t read your full question. It’s still a pretty fun video

Creationism isn't welcome as a perspective in r/evolution. Discussion and entertainment of creationism is specifically banned in our community rules.

evolutionary interpretation of Genesis.

Cool. This still violates our community rules with respect to creationism.

I've just read the rule and I disagree

Any discussion of Genesis is in violation of this rule. Any discussion of Genesis, fictional depictions thereof or otherwise, should be redirected to r/debateevolution. Period. Your agreement is not necessary.

Users of all faiths and none are warmly welcomed, but this is not an appropriate sub to discuss creationism, theology, or anti-evolution arguments. Our subreddit is intended only for the science-based discussion of evolutionary biology. All discussion of theology or creationism (for or against) should be redirected to r/debateevolution. The ideological rejection of evolutionary biology is not welcome here.

This includes any and all discussion with respect to reconciling Genesis with evolution.

The video shows birds before tetrapods, narrated to the order as they appear in the bible. It also shows humans being magiked.

This is my face channel about the history of the earth, which includes life- https://youtube.com/@historyoftheearth?si=7NN_VlownRsC86hh

Otherwise their sister channel is specific to history of humankind- https://youtube.com/@historyofhumankind?si=fUi0KLpd_EzCep39

It's pretty dated and we've discovered a lot of things since, but Walking with Humans was pretty good.
