Discovery Channel once again has a slew of programming lined up for Shark Week.

The network on Thursday revealed the full lineup for its annual programming event, which kicks off at 8 p.m. ET/PT on July 26. Discovery said every night of the programming event will feature premieres of various shows taking a deep dive into the world of sharks.

“As the original and longest-running programming event, Shark Week is an unmatched legacy built on bold storytelling, pioneering science, and must-see cultural moments,” said Joseph Boyle, head of content, at Discovery Channel. “This year, we continue to raise the bar with a lineup that delivers glowing sharks, Jurassic giants, record-setting stunts … and even, KPop.”

Among the shows are the previously announced Kpop crossover K-Pop Shark Heroes, featuring Ken Jeong and REI AMI, which kicks off the week.

Also on the lineup are Air Jaws: Red, White and Breach, wherein scientists investigate whether legendary breaching great whites have entered American waters; Expedition Unknown: Shark Secrets, featuring host Josh Gates investigating the truth behind history’s first recorded shark attack; and Ultimate Shark Dive, which follows world-class cliff diver Molly Carlson attempting a record-setting dive into shark-infested waters.

Other specials include Jurassic Sharks, which the network says is a “Shark Week First,” using CGI to resurrect the ocean’s “most bizarre Jurassic sharks, bringing them to life like never before.” 

Also on the lineup are titles including Jaws vs Orca, Invasion of the Mega Sharks, Chum Island: Catching a Killer (a “Shark Week whodunnit”), Expedition X: Atomic Sharks, Alien Sharks: Untamed America (pegged to America’s 250th anniversary, this special aims to locate the nation’s “most bizarre and dangerous alien sharks”), How to Train a Great White, My Strange Shark Addiction (focusing on, yes, shark “fin-atics”), and Sharkzilla Takes New York (investigating a theory about a possibly radioactive predator off the coast of the Hamptons).
