Megalodon Lives - Shark Week

Anyone watching this tonight??? I can’t tell if this is another “Mermaid” trickery or if the show I am watching tonight is legit…

Thoughts?

100% hoax

I think its interesting, and plausible. I mean the ocean is almost infinitely large, definitely creatures can go completely unnoticed

I think I would rater be watching Sharknado…

Turkey… the other white meat.

Total garbage. Can’t believe I watched any of that…

Yeah… waste of my time. I was thinking… if that megalodon were for real, and it just happened to pass through The Grillage, I know someone who could really put a hurting on that thing.

Turkey… the other white meat.

I was hoping the megalodon would bite the ship in half and eat the marine scientist. But I knew it wouldn’t happen because it was purported to have been a filmed docudrama. I was sorely disappointed.

I did like the chum cannons. Those were awesome. Slow…but awesome - just be sure to fire 'em down wind. :smiley:

so I DVR’d it. worth watching or just delete?

i’m not sure how they get away with calling it a “documentary”. i wasted 10 minutes on this abortion of a program, i feel bad for anyone who stuck out the whole 2 hours.

If you watched Sharknado or Sharkoctopus, you may as well stick out for this one too. I caught the last hour and caught on pretty fast it was hokum. I wanted to see how they’d end it.

So after getting all the boats, scientists, equipment, giant whale lure, massive chum cannons and the worlds largest chum slick in the ocean, something started happening when all of the sudden

Discovery is dead, gone the way of all the other TV these days. They want to cash in on the reality TV craze, and the Megalodon show isn’t the first time they’ve aired crap like this - the Mermaids specials were the same type of stuff. The real troubling part about it is that a measurable percentage of viewers (apparently as high as 70% according to a few articles I’ve read, but I’m not sure how they’re arriving at that) walk away without reading the disclaimer in the credits and believing the whole thing.

Hopefully there will be enough outcry from folks who actually liked the documentary-focused programming that Discovery (or D or whatever is they’re going to be calling themselves) rethinks this shift.

and the crap they had on last night where the young lids from Mythbusters made that mock up of a Megalodon…gimme a fricken break…loved the part where dude got knocked off the stage when the big styrofoam block broke off…

I was thinking they’d follow it up with another showing of “Sharknado”…both are equally plausible…

“Never argue with an idiot…he will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience.”

I cant believe that I dont have to look up Sharknado to see what it is.

Can’t wait for sharkado number 2. Most epic sequel ever :smiley:
