Todos los tiburones

As a biologist with a background working directly with sharks, I typically approach wildlife documentaries with a healthy dose of skepticism. Having witnessed firsthand the sensationalism that often permeates programming like "Shark Week" - sometimes even inadvertently contributing to it - I'm all too familiar with the tendency to craft artificial narratives that misrepresent these incredible animals.

There's so much inherent fascination in the true lives of sharks that there's simply no need to resort to "Jaws" reenactments or fabricated stories to captivate an audience.

That's why this series was such a revelation for me. What truly sets it apart is its unique approach: it's genuinely entertaining, remarkably educational, and, most importantly, deeply respectful of the animals it showcases. Unlike so many reality or documentary-style shows, there's no need for dramatic wrestling matches or forced captures. The series understands that the inherent wonder of these creatures is more than enough.

While I wholeheartedly give this series a 10/10, I do have a couple of minor suggestions. A touch less scripting, perhaps taking audio from longer interviews, could allow for more natural, concise narratives. Similarly, during underwater segments, it would be beneficial to either remove the artificial talking while diving, or clearly indicate when voice-overs are being used.

Despite these small points, I am genuinely thrilled to see a new format emerge that successfully engages a wide audience while maintaining such a profound respect for wildlife. To whoever conceived of this "Pokémon-esque" approach to sharks - thank you. Your creativity and persistence in bringing this series to life and securing its place on Netflix have truly paid off. This is a game-changer for how we can learn about and appreciate the natural world. Your impact will be felt in the industry, and you should deserve an award for that alone. You're brilliant.

I encourage everyone, whether you're a seasoned wildlife enthusiast or just curious about the ocean's wonders, or just someone looking for a TV show they're unfamiliar with, to give this show a watch. And to the entire team who worked on this series - from the concept creators to the camera crews and editors - your dedication shines through, and it is deeply appreciated.

My husband and I hadn't planned on binge watching all six episodes in one day but All The Sharks sucked us right in! We enjoy a wide variety of TV programming but appreciated this unique new concept immensely. Combining the excitement of a fast-paced reality competition show with the stunning, endearing, and fascinating visuals and fast facts of natural history and travel documentaries with just the right amount of raw, organic drama and intrigue, I can really see how this series will be appealing and valuable to all ages. There are so many beautiful, interesting, lesser-known or mis-understood creatures in our world that deserve a broader audience. What a great and fun way to entertain and educate!

We need more programming like this. What a great idea to provide entertainment and walk away with knowledge. I think for you and older viewers alike, this is a great way to reach a broader audience. Whether you clicked on it for the entertainment aspect or the education on nature, you got both. The film work was better than most documentaries that are out there and there are some shots of species in here that I have never seen before. Travel, underwater photography, sharks and marine life, teamwork and competition...what else could you ask for. Excellent watch and I hope to see more in the future :)

It is so thrilling to watch all these amazingly talented folks watch, search for and discuss sharks. I learned so much about these beautiful creatures, so maligned by society. The contestants truly love their subject. I can't wait for the second series! The photography is exceptional, I especially loved all the reef scenes, and seeing other species in their habitat. I hope this series encourages everyone to respect and support all the efforts worldwide to protect sharks, and do their own research on how important all the shark species are to the marine biosphere. I'm going to watch it again. Great job, everyone.

I'm not usually into sea life documentaries but the way this competition show educated and kept me on the edge of my seat really kept me entertained.

The fun fact side of the show educates you by telling you different facts about loads of different species of not just sharks but sea life in general. Whilst the competition side of the show keeps you on the edge of your seat when you see 4 pairs of divers compete by trying to photograph as many different types of sharks as possible. But they can't just photograph some sharks, they have to photograph all the sharks because the rarer the shark the more points it scores.

To make the show more interesting the competitors travel through 6 exotic locations which look gorgeous and face not just sharks, but also strong currents and equipment mishaps that really push them to their limit. And whoever is leading by the time they leave each location wins a mini prize which is nice to see because some Netflix shows only give out a big prize at the end but hardly anything along the way.

So overall I really enjoyed seeing this unique show and hope they make a new series soon, because I can't wait for a second bite.
