So I live on a island... Long island,  we have one of the highest population of sharks off our eastern coast and I know most people here hate shark week.  I guess cause were in the ocean so much its just pushing the idea of a shark attack.

So now the poll part


How far do you life from the ocean?

Do you enjoy shark week.

Me now

12miles from ocean

1Mile to sound

I don't like shark week

Vermont - Ways from ocean. Love the idea of Shark Week, but am sick of the repetitive, sensationalist stories they keep recycling year after year. It's tired and old.

ontario, so very far from an ocean.

i'm sort of 50/50 on liking/not liking shark week. Some of the shows are ridiculous and repetitive but some are very entertaining.

Anyone remember the name of the documentary about what humans are doing to the sharks? He was an underwater photographer and went out on the boat that takes out poachers.
