Plan the next few days accordingly so you don't miss out on the "fintastic" content.
If you're a fan of Shark Week, which airs from Sunday, August 9 through Sunday, August 16, you better get your chompers ready — this year's series is going to be packed with some epic content.
For starters, the explorer, adventurer, and Discovery Channel's Expedition Unknown's Josh Gates will welcome celebrity guests to join him on his virtual show. Some of the star-studded cast members include the big dude, Shaquille O'Neil, the Trekkie, William Shatner, and comedic boxer, Mike Tyson.
More are expected to join the virtual show to talk about some of the neatest moments from this year's Shark Week.
"I’m so excited to be helming late night for Shark Week 2020," Josh Gates told PEOPLE. "Each night, we’re inviting viewers to sail on over for a cocktail, good conversation, and a deeper dive into their favorite shows. We even hired an all-shark funk band. Sure, they charge an arm and a leg, but they’re totally worth it! I’ll be here all week. Literally.”
Shark Week is set to feature more than 20 hours of shark stories, including Will Smith diving headfirst into shark-infested waters and Tyson going "head to head" with a shark.
This year’s Shark Week will also be explaining the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the oceans. The episode is called "Shark Lockdown" and it airs on Sunday, August 9. You'll get to watch researchers in New Zealand examine how hunting patterns among female great white sharks have changed.
Here's the schedule for Shark Week 2020:
