The Giant Salamander Update! The Last One, I Promise!

I have to confess -- I fell asleep during the Dangerous Encounters show, but not because it wasn't great. Dr. Brady Barr was wrestling with a large -- but not giant -- salamander from the Florida Everglades, and I conked out. (Explanation: I had been at a four-hour dinner function with several courses and much amazing wine...missed the first airing but made it home for the encore, plus I'm one of those ladies who tends to fall asleep in front of the TV -- and I know I'm not the only one! I woke up about fifteen minutes before the end but instantly fell asleep again. Pathetic, I realize.) The photo is of Dr. Barr, who is delightful, with an American hellbender salamander.

But fear not! The show repeats tomorrow morning -- Monday -- at 11am on Nat Geo! Clash of the Giant Salamanders will be back to haunt your dreams!

What I did see was excellent and exciting! Thank goodness for current television schedules which provide many viewing opportunities, and of course those with DVRs can simply record and breathe a sigh of relief. I guess I need to join the 21st century too, in that respect!

OMG -- Giant Salamanders on National Geo Channel!


Okay, this is an early heads up for all of us. This Saturday night, on the exciting Dangerous Encounters show, starring Dr. Brady Barr, he goes in search of giant salamanders! These aren't just big, these fellas are GIANT! I mean, look at that picture! Holy cow!! Amazing!!!

This looks like the best show on TV this week! It airs Saturday night at 8pm, and I highly suggest that you drop everything and plan to watch.

You can preview some video on the Dangerous Encounters website. Human-sized salamanders! (The only sad thing is that they evidently are considered a delicacy in some Asian cuisine circles -- that's really bad.)
