shark week

I DVR it and watch it at the end of my dive season.:D

Cheers, Don

Some of the claims of that Shark week are ludicrous to say the least. Discovery is full of sensationalism and misguided assumptions. I don´t know if they are pro environment or not. I don´t see the point of disturbing animals just to make a point.

I agree, most of the shows are all hype, but certain ones have some good video. I wish Nat. geo would do it instead

Always remember documentary's, news and weather is still entertainment of the masses. The story the camera man, producer, writer and editor tell is painted with their brush. A skilled cameraman and sound guy can even make Mother Teresa look shady and ill willed, while making a sleazy politician look like a warm and caring angel.

Yeah, Sdeisen and Paul, I remember my beloved Tv shows of Lorne Greene nature documentaries, those were the days..

Mutual of Omahas Wild Kingdom with Marlin Perkins.....

I don't understand why they think sharks are the only animal that its OK to feed. you'll never see any other nature show where they feed wild animals so why should it be OK to feed sharks?

That's a good point. It is such a "no-no" to feed wild animals but when it comes to sharks and a camera it is different.

Stuart Cove seems to be doing pretty well...they're logo is on everything!
