Nova: Extreme Cave Diving DVD

I just wanted to point out the Houston Public Library has a copy of Nova: Extreme Cave Diving.

REEP and I watched it a couple of nights ago and it is excellent. The program follows Dr. Kenny Broad as he and his team dive 6 blue holes. Wes Skiles is also the director of photography and has several interviews throughout the program.

If you are a member of Houston Public Library just request a hold at your local branch from this site: http://catalog.houstonlibrary.org/search~S1?/Xextreme%20cave%20diving&SORT=D/Xextreme%20cave%20diving&SORT=D&SUBKEY=extreme%20cave%20diving/1,2,2,B/frameset&FF=Xextreme%20cave%20diving&SORT=D&1,1,

I'm not sure if this is a new series or just some new episodes on The History Channel. But it looks pretty entertaining....anyone catch the first 2 last night?

I watched about 1/2 of each one, decent stuff.

The upcoming episode of Bizarre Foods features Jamaica.

That alone is good enough reason to set the DVR, but the trailer for the episode showed Andrew holding a lionfish, so it would be even better to see some of the little buggers being eaten.

It airs on the Travel Channel (Channel 254 for Uverse viewers) at 8:00 pm on the 19th.

On Sunday night at 7 pm, CNN Presents will be an episode titled "Hunting Down Sharks".

They had a teaser for it on CNN this morning and it looks like it'll be pretty good show. Set those DVRs!

Came across that a few weeks ago. They have it on Netflix instant watch. Really cool show.

Channel 8 is showing Extreme Cave Diving tonight at 8. It looks like it's airing again on the 16th at 7:00 pm if you want to set your DVR so you can record it while you're hanging out at Stag's

There was a really cool documentary I found on netflix instant stream. It's gets quite graphic at times when they talk about he whaling industry so just a fair warning if that stuff gets to you. Really a good show though.

A Life Among Whales

Here's a new series starting Tomorrow night.....some diamond diving off the coast of South Africa.

Diamond Divers

Here's an article in today's paper about that series...there are two Houston divers in it.

If your looking for something to watch on Sunday night 60 minutes is going to have a report on freediving.

Top athletes of free diving on 60 Minutes

Here's an interesting series:

Reef Wranglers

Gonna have to set the DVR for that one. Did anybody happen to catch the premier?

 

[Sushi Boy]

Did anybody catch Anderson Cooper diving with crocodiles on 60 Minutes tonight? Pretty interesting show.

There's some good follow-up footage on 60 Minutes Overtime

 

[Sushi Boy]

If you get NatGeo (I don't ), there's an interesting show on tonight about WWII wrecks off the coast of North Carolina:

Hitler's Secret Attack on America

It's worth setting your DVR for Into the Drink. The new season starts on MATV this Wednesday, I believe at 5:30 pm. It's a scuba-focused travel show. I stumbled across the last episode of season one and am excited to see it coming back.

 

[Earl Grey]

Looks good - shame Uverse doesn't carry MavTV...

 

[Heidi Ho]

I agree - I did a quick search of YT and found a few videos there tho --- haven't watched them yet

 

[Sushi Boy]

There's a documentary that looks pretty good (made by a 20-year-old Australian filmmaker) coming up on the Smithsonian Channel:

Shark Girl

It premiers Sunday, June 15th.

Does anybody with Uverse or Comcast want to invite me over, since my crappy cable company doesn't carry that channel?


Here's a Youtube video video by the same girl as a little teaser:

Late notice, but channel 11 (KHOU) will be airing an interview with the FGBNMS staff during tonight's news. It was filmed aboard the good ship Manta.

There's a new show on the Weather Channel that I stumbled across tonight called Catching Hell about commercial spearfishermen off the Gulf Coast of Florida.
