Hey everyone, I just thought everyone would really dig hearing about this years
SHARK WEEK 2008, starting
Sunday, July 27th!
I'm setting this up as an official thread for anyone to voice off about their what they liked last year, ask questions and talk about what they're looking forward to this year. I will continually revisit with new materials/exclusives to share with you guys (you're going to love Shark Yourself!)
Below I've listed a general schedule overview to get everyone on the same page. I totally stoked for the
Mythbusters shark special myself (Jamie & Adam rock).
Also, I'll be checking up often, so don't be shy about posting questions...

SUNDAY @ 9PM -- Mythbusters: Shark Special 
Jamie and Adam totally bring it. Using their usual explosive experimentation (expect lots of hilarity), they travel from CA's deep blue to the Bahamas in hunt of debunking some serious shark myths. My personal fave, are sharks repelled by magnets? They even create a 16-foot long robo-shark; how's that for upping the ante!?
MONDAY @ 9PM -- Surviving Sharks with Survivorman! 
Everyone's favorite Survivorman, Les Stroud, gives tips and tricks on how best to play it safe in the water. He tests some popular survivor theories -- is it safer to stay in a group or tread water along? -- that i'm sure you'll find useful when you're stranded in shark infested waters off the coast of South Africa.

The mysterious Greenland shark lives near the Arctic circle and Dirty Jobs' Mike Rowe travels to their bitter cold home to find out more about the large, slow-moving behemoths. Learn how the rapid ecological changes near the north pole are affecting this awesome creature, and how that trickles down the food chain.
