EPTNow I haven't watched either of these for a long time. Maybe like 10 years or so, but I recall animal planet was... a nature channel.. they had documentaries about the rain forest and lions and stuff. That's a pretty far from star trek mermaiks. Mixing sci fi and documentaries only serves to give the network a bad rep I think.

Maybe captain kirk went back in time in the star trek film to actually get some of that mermaid action and the whole "save the whales" thing was just an excuse? We'll find out in the next part of the documentary! | ||

I wish schools were better at teaching scepticism :/ I had to explain to a friend of mine why the idea that we're an alien-ape genetic hybrid is fucking stupid. The history channel shouldn't be allowed to be called that anymore... | ||

Go back to the monster thread and draw mermaid monsters! No time for you to linger here!! Give them a propeller at the end of the tail and torpedoes shooting out from docks in their chest. Better replace the arms with enormous crab-like clams as well. I leave the choice between shark-mouth or pretty girl face to you. Also, I don't believe in nonsense like mermaids, as they would swim under the ice at the end of the flat earth and fall off. | ||

Atleast the dragon one had a freaking dragon fighting a T-Rex. I remember the dragon one, dunno about the t-rex tho. Still, this mermaid documentary thing was just silly and boring. | ||

People will believe in any fictional being as long as it's presented as "science" it seems... No wonder the children of today grow up without proper values for right and wrong. I'm not familiar, what did they do to dinosaurs and neanderthals ? | ||

Also, 'the bloop.' Now, I don't know what the show said about it, but being big into Cryptozoology I've heard about 'the bloop' a lot. It's actually a pretty interesting topic, and a very curious noise, but I don't understand what it has to do with mermaids. The reason the bloop became famous because of this story (correct me if I'm wrong, I haven't brushed up on my bloop history in awhile.) US ship/sub picks up a sound, a "bloop" on their radio/sonar equipment. They analyze and and determine that it is biological in nature (produced by some sort of animal, similar to a whale I guess), only whatever animal created the sound would have to be the largest animal on the planet. And it came from the depths. So, I wrote all that and then went to wiki and realized I could just do this BLOOP BLOOP | ||

Especially with a title like "Mermaids: The Bodies Found." Which is the exact fucking opposite of what they have lol. Want me to respect you again, Animal Planet? Find some mermaid bodies... Come on, back your claim. All went down hill because of that goddamn sting ray, man. No Steve Irwin, no respect. | ||
