Shark Week is a highlight of the 2025 TV schedule for some but, historically, there always seems to be a program within the Discovery block that rubs viewers the wrong way for one reason or another. Unfortunately, that happened right off the bat this year, thanks to a particularly kooky show. A number of fans tuned in to see Tom Bergeron host Dancing with Sharks, and many subsequently took to social media to negatively sound off on this wild crossover of sorts involving Dancing with the Stars.
DWTS fans have hoped for years that Bergeron would return to the ABC dance competition. However, I'm not quite sure Dancing with Sharks was quite what those devotees had in mind. The special features shark handlers dancing around sharks and using bait to entice them to emulate popular dance moves as well. After the special kicked off the week-long celebration of sharks on Discovery, many on X weren't impressed. Check out some of the responses down below:
