Again this week there’s a veritable cornucopia of weirdness on TV such as, How Not to Become Shark Bait on Animal Planet, Thursday 2nd October, 3:00am. The blurb says,

‘Documentary in which a team of amateur shark enthusiasts swim with sharks in the Bahamas to test how readily sharks attack humans.’

My advice for how not to become shark bait? Don’t swim where sharks hang out and try not to smell like fish.

Then I saw European Drag Racing and images of drag queens from around Europe called Lavernon or something all running in high heels and sequined frocks, but no, it’s something to do with cars so I moved on…

Next up is good old Porn Week, Bravo, Saturday from midnight. This bizarre series follows a group of ‘porn enthusiasts’ as they get to live the porn dream and go behind the scenes as a porno film is made. This week, in the first of two episodes, things start with a bang as the cast, crew and guests arrive in Prague and in the second, the guests get a lesson in stills photography. Weirdness abounds in this show… as do naked people.

That brings us nicely to what could be the Odd Film of the Week; it’s called ‘Pervert!’ Saturday 4th, 12:50am on Zone Horror. Its info says, ‘Throwback to classic 70’s sexploitation films, in which nice-guy James uncovers bizarre secrets of sex and death at his father’s ranch.’

It was the title that I loved… how long must it have taken to come up with that one? Literally, seconds I imagine, but what a great title for a film that isn’t a comedy!

But finally, the crème de la crème of this week’s oddness… I give you ‘Good Morning Psychic’, Saturday 4th, 9:00am -12:00pm on Zone Horror which is an, ‘Interactive show offering viewers early-morning spiritual advice and guidance.’

So it’s like GMTV or This Morning for psychics then? Instead of saying that they hope you have a good day, like Lorraine Kelly would, they’ll tell you exactly what sort of day you’re about to have I assume? No need for guests either I suppose given that they know what they’re going to say anyway… I wonder if they have a weather person and if so, how that works? I may well have to check it out just to see!

Have you spotted any freakyness on telly? If so, let us know!
