I can't believe that, after that crap last night, they can get away with passing anything along on Discovery as "educational."

*Didn't they pull the same stunt before with that mockumentary on mermaids?

*Edit: it was Animal Planet

Shark week was cool the first time. After that it became redundant. There is only so much you can do...

Yeah, thanks to that I now can't convince my 7 year old niece that mermaids aren't real. If you're going to tout yourself as being an educational channel, don't show misleading shit.

He'll be in the lineup for most of August while he appeals.

Why in the sam fuck do surfers surf near a crowded sand bar of seals? As far as I'm concerned you deserve to get your leg bit off.

Shark week jumped the shark a couple years ago. ITs super unfortunate. And with Discover Channel and the shit they pulled with Dual Survival - Im kind of not that excited anymore with what they are doing.

I guess you just kinda run out of shit to say about sharks after a while.

It's really no big deal. All of the good specials can be found online anyway.
