I'm not nuts about this year either.
It's a bummer, because I couldn't tell you when Lent is if you held a gun to my head, but Shark Week is marked on my calendar.
We've only got Shark weekend here on discovery and it's been pretty good. Got to love the Great Whites breaching and the Whale Shark moves from Taiwan to the US was a feat nothing short of a logistical miracle.
i think they are showing you some repeats of years past. Years ago they used to be so much better :frown1:
Maybe the sharks are getting smarter and figured out how to avoid the marine biologist paparozzi. You're right, though, much of what's been on so far has been run before. Still good, though.
Most of my friends know I like elephants, penguins and orangs but when I say I also like sharks they have a hard time accepting that I am serious.
You're right, Flashy. Maybe "like" was not the word I really wanted. Fascinated is better. They're such primeval creatures, so perfectly fitted to their place in the natural progression of the food chain that they become a source of endless curiousity.
As the man said in Jaws, "They eat and make baby sharks".
By the way, my sister lives in Jackson Hgts. 76th St. actually.
On the Discovery Channel...
has been really disappointing this year :frown1:
NO really interesting studies and very little on Great Whites.
