The A-List
Episode Guide
Join top celebrities and comedians for a hilarious and unexpected look at the animal kingdom as they count down who made The A-List on Animal Planet.

lovers
   LOVERS (TV14 - D)
Ah, Romance! On this edition of The A-List, we're counting down the best lovers in the animal world. From the bugs that will risk death for love to the boy-snake that will dress up like a girl-snake, when it comes to love, animals have it all over people. And then there are the female lizards that have done away with the male of the species entirely! All with the affectionate annotations of our creature comics.
Featured Experts: Trista and Ryan Sutter (The Bachelor and The Bachelorette)
loud mouths
   LOUDMOUTHS (TV14)
"I can't stand loudmouths!" proclaims our featured guest, Gilbert Gottfried, but even he has to shut up when he faces the top ten loudmouths of The A-List! Where did howler monkeys get their name? Why do SOME persistent birds send out over 10,000 calls for love before they get the hint? How does one tiny creature generate a sound as loud as a rocket? You — and our comedians — won't believe their ears!
Featured Expert: Gilbert Gottfried
troublemaker
   TROUBLEMAKERS (TV14 - DL)
Who are the biggest troublemakers of the animal kingdom? In this episode of The A-List, we count down the birds, bugs and beasts who, through no fault of their own, cause problems for human animals — from a bull elephant seal who falls in love with a herd of cattle to vultures that play dueling banjoes on a rooftop. Who makes the most mayhem in the animal kingdom? Find out!
Featured Expert: Danny Bonaduce (The Partridge Family)
flirts
   OUTRAGEOUS FLIRTS (TV14 - DL)
People flirt to get a date. But for animals, flirting is a matter of survival of the species — and their ways of attracting a mate are somewhat... unusual. On this edition of The A-List, our team of comics count down the most outrageous flirts of the natural world. From the bower bird that does interior decorating with its own saliva to the crested black macaque that gives new meaning to "baby got back." Which animal goes furthest in their quest for love? Find out!
Featured Expert: Jackee Harry (227)
moms
   MOMS (TV14 - DL)
It's time to give props to the moms on The A-List. We're paying tribute to maternal instincts of the animal kingdom. From the mothers who carry their babies on her back for months to the slumbering mama who doesn't even wake up to give birth. The A-List comics get to deal with their mother issues — and put moms up on a zoological pedestal.
Featured Expert: Shirley Jones (The Partridge Family)
dads
   DADS (TV14 - DL)
Who makes the A-List of dads in the animal kingdom? This episode shows that fatherhood can range from lions who'd rather sleep than sire to an undersea father that actually becomes pregnant instead of the mother! Our creature comics count 'em down while tossing in tidbits about dads who swallow their young to protect them, and others that spit up food to feed their kids.
Featured Experts: James Eckhouse (Beverly Hills 90210) and Don Grady (My Three Sons)
survivors
   SURVIVORS (TV14 - DL)
What does it take to be a survivor? The A-List shows that it takes an ability to weather everything from storms to predators to nuclear holocaust. From the camels who can last weeks in the desert to tiny critters that can actually put themselves into suspended animation, we'll count down the top survivors of the animal kingdom. But can even these creatures survive the quips of our comedic commentators?
Featured Experts: Gloria Gaynor ("I Will Survive") and Colby Donaldson (Survivor)
