Shark Week has been celebrated since 1988. Per Wikipedia, "Shark Week is an annual week long programming block on Discovery Channel which features shark-based programming, real and fictional. Fictitious programming ("docufiction") includes Megalodon: The Monster Shark Lives, Shark of Darkness: Wrath of Submarine, and Megaladon: The New Evidence. It originally premiered on July 17, 1988. Held annually, normally in July or August, Shark Week was originally developed to raise awareness and respect for sharks. Since then it has evolved into more entertainment-oriented programming. It is the longest-running cable television programming event in history.[1]"
Now broadcast in over 72 countries, Shark Week is promoted heavily via social networks like Facebook and Twitter. Episodes of recent years are also available for purchase on services like Google Play Movies and TV, Amazon Instant Video, and iTunes. A fascinating 8/14/14 article at Huffington Post is:
