I sure as shite do, although I don't anticipate it quite as much as I once did.


I'm looking most forward to these two:

MEGALODON: THE MONSTER SHARK LIVES

Sunday, August 4, at 9|8C

Discovery brings SHARK WEEK viewers on a search for a massive killer Great White shark responsible for a rash of fatalities off the coast of South Africa. One controversial scientist believes that the shark responsible could be Megalodon, a 60-foot relative of the Great White that is one of the largest and most powerful predators in history. Our oceans remain 95% unexplored, and this massive prehistoric predator has always been shrouded in secrecy, but after a rash of newly discovered evidence, authorities are forced to investigate and hunt for the predator long thought to be extinct. A crew of scientists and shark experts examine evidence and fearlessly seek answers to the many questions surrounding one of the last great mysteries of the deep ocean while creating the largest chum slick in history.

VOODOO SHARKS

Monday, August 5, at 10|9C

We investigate Bull Shark populations that have moved beyond oceans and U.S. coasts to the bayous of Louisiana. Nicknamed ‘Voodoo Sharks’ by local shrimp fishermen, these Bull Sharks have the extraordinary ability to live in both salt and fresh water environments and they show up by the hundreds in the bayous of Louisiana. There are many a fishermen who have encountered these dominant and startling predators in the shallow Louisiana waters. But while Bull Sharks in the Bayou are a known phenomenon, locals tell of an even larger shark lurking in swamps. Is this phantom shark the stuff of Cajun legend, or do these waters hold a brand new species?

Not really, it's the same shite rehashed every year.

Unless a groundbreaking discovery is made of some sort to arouse my interest I will not be tuning in.

Won't even be a real Megalodon. Most likely a huge fricking Great White.

My excitement is beginning to wane. You've see one special, you've seen them all. I did enjoy the special last year about that huge shark who's tooth was the size of a tire.

I don't get excited anymore per se but I still watch each year and make it a point to see the "new" portions that air.
