I pre-ordered this dvd and the day it arrived I popped it in the player. The packaging is very nice w/ a cool 3D Jaws pic on the front. 4 discs: 1 and 3 have 3 shows, 2 and 4 have 4 shows each. With the exception of Anatomy of a Bite (90min), most avg around 45 minutes. The shows range from Shark Bite survivors to Air Jaws & Air Jaws II. $19.99 is a fair price for 14 episodes and I did learn a lot. They seem to dwell quite a bit on the Great White, so footage of the leaping sharks in So. Africa can get a bit repetitive. Also Erich Ricter, the scientist whose bite from a bull shark was highlighted in Anatomy of a Bite, makes quite a few appearances throughout the episodes. You'd think that after 20 years of Shark Week, Discovery would include 14 very different episodes in this compliation. I'm a huge Shark Week fan and never miss a year so that's why this dvd was a MUST-OWN, but I do wish it had maybe 6 more episodes and they could have focused on other sharks like the Mako or Tiger vs. focusing quite a bit on the Great White and Bull Shark.. If you like owning Nature DVDs, and perhaps aren't going to record this year's Shark Week episodes, this is a good deal. Just be prepared to watch the majority of the time about Whale, Bull, and Great White Sharks..

This set contains some truly fantastic footage of sharks, especially great whites, but is sadly lacking in its quantity of real science on sharks. Virtually nothing is covered on shark biology, physiology, number of species, ranges, habits, etc. Including such information so that the series took the viewers to school and truly educated us about sharks---in addition to the sensational shots of attacks on humans and other prey---would have served the viewer and the sharks much better. Particularly bad was the episode with the mechanical sharks and supposed the attempt to "study" the dynamics of a shark bite. It was really more of a tribute to modern FX than anything else. Over all this set is entertaining with its photographic footage of sharks but otherwise disappointing in its lack of substance.

Hi - our 7 year old son is absolutely thrilled by this video. He could watch all 8 or so hours without stopping. When we recently went to an aquarium, he pointed out different shark types to me and how they're different, when they hunt, etc. After reading the small information board, it all matched. So it's certainly a great show for every kid interested in sharks!

He doesn't need to but he can jump as high as his airness! A fantastic collection of SHARK WEEK programs from the last 20 years, this will excite and captivate any shark enthusiast or expert.The 14 episodes cover a diverse spectrum of shark lore, from identification,distribution and preservation to shark attack survivors and ancient sharks including the awesome Megalodon.Fans of the Great White are in for a treat as the shark is featured prominantly in several outstanding episodes.The package design is first class with a holographic cover and great graphics making for an essential purchase.On a final note,the interview with the young russian woman who survived an attack while her boyfriend did not, is one of the most affecting moments this series has produced.

I never thought a documentary about sharks could be boring but bored I was. Seemed to have repetition over and over about great whites more than anything which got monotonous after awhile. Enactments of shark attacks with "grape juice" in the water and chats with attack survivors. Don't particularly regret buying it but wish it had been more interesting.

This collection of Shark Week: 20th Anniversary Collection was advertised as having English and French subtitles. However it has neither subtitles nor CC, this Clerical area may not seem important to some with perfect hearing: but to someone like myself with a hearing disability, this is most important. There for I must say I was very disappointed.
