Shark Week doesn't really air in India the same time as the rest of the world. At first it bothered me that I couldn't take part in all the fun. And then I was educated enlightened by Dr.David Shiffman a couple of years ago and now I find the de-sensationalising of Shark Week even more fun.
However, I do find their episode titles rather exciting (as intended) and I enjoyed drawing my take on the titles. Here are the ones from 2017 and 2016. This year's titles attempt to be intriguing but it loses its hook once you realise that it's just some over-hyped shark drama below the surface.
Anyway, I thought I'd choose some of the titles from this year's lineup.
1. Air Jaws: Ultimate Breach off (10th Aug)
2. Jaws awakens (11th August)
3. Extinct or Alive: Land of the Lost Sharks (12th August)
I heard that a few diverse sharks were featured in this episode including the Whitetip Weasel Shark (Paragaleus leucolomatus), Flapnose Houndshark (Scylliogaleus quecketti) and Blacktip shark (Carcharhinus limbatus).
Extra: Great White Serial Killer Extinction
I heard there was another episode titled "serial killer" this year. Okay, so it had something to do with sea otters but this title needs to stop being applied to sharks unless it's a super duper fun monster flick. This drawing is from 2017 with a couple of small modifications.
4. Monster under the bridge (13th August)
Monster, it seems. I was gonna go with a Billy goat gruff sort of idea but then this tune suddenly started running through my head and I figured this is even better.
5. Sharkadelic Summer
I just really wanted to try out some psychedelic backgrounds.
6. Tiger Shark King
I modified my old tiger shark and tiger drawing to fit this one. Tiger Sharks are hilarious. The tiger is rolling its eyes.
7. Wicked Sharks
Am I the only one who thought this when I heard that title?
Bonus: Alien Sharks 2020
I modified another one from 2017 with some of the diverse sharks featured this year.
