Discovery Channel's Shark Week with Tom Bergeron; Apple TV+ Season 2 of Hit Series

Summer's most-anticipated television programming event, Discovery Channel's Shark Week, returns for its historic 37th year on Sunday, July 20 at 8PM ET/PT. The network previously announced the upcoming Shark Week special Dancing with Sharks (wt) and released the first official promo clip for the 2025 celebration. A full programming schedule for Shark Week will be distributed in the coming weeks.
Hosted by Emmy Award-winning television personality Tom Bergeron, Dancing with Sharks (wt) is a new Shark Week 2025 special that features an unprecedented underwater dance competition between expert divers and their shark partners. Blending skill, grace and the daring pursuit of the ultimate underwater thrill, five divers all trained by a world-class underwater choreographer will compete to show off their skills during epic underwater dances. Each diver will attempt to outperform their competitors, with moves including the Hammerhead Hoedown and Tiger Trot, and redefine dancing with danger. They will have one shot to wow the judges and be crowned the first-ever champion of Dancing with Sharks (wt).
