On the heels of Syfy’s cult-hit Sharknado, the Discovery Channel’s yearly shark event looks to capitalize on the human fascination with sharks. Among the new material are Sharkpocalypse, The Monster Shark Lives and Spawn of Jaws.

Each night of Shark Week will also feature a brand new talk show, called Shark After Dark. The show will be hosted by comedian Josh Wolf, and will feature past Shark Week highlights, previews of the following day’s festivities and an opportunity for viewers to interact with tweets and questions.

The Shark Week entertainment will continue until Friday night.
