Thank you very much for your letters. The Discovery Channel welcomes all types of feedback from its dedicated fans and seriously considers all recommendations. However, at this time we are unfortunately not able to honour your numerous requests and will not be expanding our famous Shark Week.

While the prospects of “Shark Month” and “Shark Semester” are enticing, we still feel that well-rounded and informative programming is more conducive to our mission. Your subsequent request of a “Shark Fortnight” was an improvement, but we’re still confident that one week out of the year devoted entirely to sharks is enough.

  • “I haven’t eaten since I had some Fritos and a Diet Coke on the helicopter, and I’m absolutely starving. A lion would make a great meal.”
  • “Look…can you see? Just past that outcropping is a male rhinoceros. He’s spotted us. In this situation you have to remain VERY QUIET. Rhinos have terrible eyesight, but have a superb sense of sound. Some studies have reported that they can hear leaves rustling from MILES away. We have to be EXTRA CAREFUL, because right now is the peak of the rhinoceros mating season. I said THE PEAK OF THE RHINOCEROS MATING SEASON.”
