Shark Week: Alien Sharks
Alien Sharks, just like last year, seems to be the only show during Shark Week that isn’t super dramatic and is actually about Sharks.
So if you have Alien Sharks recorded on your DVR, grab a KitKat, and watch it. So many pretty sharks. So short of a show. But….. Frilled Sharks… Megamouths…
Shark Week 2014
Shark Week is back on Discovery starting August 10th and it looks absolutely terrible.
Besides playing the exact same reruns during the day as last year… Discovery’s new content isn’t exactly new. It’s the same sort of nonsense as last years atrocious Shark Week. “Look a big shark. Look a shark bit somebody. THEY GOT TEETH OH MY”
If you were looking to hear new stuff about frilled sharks or even just learn a little tidbit you hadn’t known before, Shark Week ain’t gonna help you. You’d probably be better off with Nat Geo Wild.
On a positive note though, there is one episode in the shark week lineup that might just get your nature juices going… Keep an eye out for Alien Sharks Return to the Abyss.
