For those who grew up in the golden age of television, Mutual of Omaha’s Wild Kingdom wasn’t just a show, it was a Sunday night staple that brought families together. They’d gather around the TV to watch Marlin Perkins transport them to some of the wildest places on earth.
Starting July 6, you’ll be able to relive those cherished memories. Those classic episodes of Wild Kingdom will air once again on MeTV from 7-10 a.m. Eastern Time/Pacific Time.
The Wild Kingdom tradition continues
When Wild Kingdom first aired in 1963, it created the blueprint for every nature documentary that followed.

The show didn’t just entertain; it educated and inspired generations to care about wildlife conservation.
