Normally these shows are the same old regurgitated stuff. There's still some of that but I've watched a few different episodes this year and they are well worth it. In particular one where they recreate attack profiles and see if they can do anything to deter attack. One with a downed kite boarder. He wears a shark shield for safety and even that turned on isn't effective. Gutsy stuff. They do body boarding, dive stuff, spear fishing. There's some interesting results. Gives you some deterrent methods. Seven gill shark in NZ and The Guadeloupe episode on giant whites well worth watching.

Shark deterrents don't work? Well that's news.
