Yes, I love shark week! A little disappointed that it interrupted Deadliest Catch, but it will be back next week.

I've watched off and on. Guess I've seen too many shark weeks because I get a bit weary of them swimming around, and around, and around...well, you know.

I do not understand how some of these divers go into the shark infested waters wearing only a wet suit and do not get attacked!? It is amazing.

It was so educational back in the early 90's when it gained steam...and was cute in the 00's, but now with 'Sharknado' rising to the top, it's just a tired 'bit'.

It's reported more people die from interactions with Cows than sharks (4-5x more). Maybe Discovery Channel needs to start 'Cow Week'...?!

HAHAHA, Cow Week would be great! People are hurt when they are knocked over or run over by cows, not eaten by them. ( Many more people have cows than have sharks!!)

I've always loved sharks and have swum with scores of them, in my scuba-diving days. My favorite animal!

I've watched a couple of the shows and I think I have 2 or 3 more of them in my shows to watch.

I did happen to catch a couple where people were killing them and I deleted that as fast as I could. That is very much NOT ok.

I feel that sharks are the pitbulls of the ocean (there is a dog shark by the way) Very misunderstood. I hate it when they kill the sharks for their fins.

Theres a small island in the middle of nowhere where the sharks are treated with respect. The villagers spear fish on something no bigger than a paddleboard. The sharks swim around them and seem to leave them alone. The people leave the sharks alone too. They are notkilled for their fins. For decades the islanders seem to coexist peacefully with the sharks.

Why look at sharks when you can look at Orcas? I wish they had Orca week. Now that's the ocean's top predator.

But nine people were seriously bitten by sharks in the past two weeks off of the shores of North Carolina and it wasn't in deep water. One man was out only to his thighs !

Yikes, I'll stay ashore !
