The sad reality of it is, this is how Animal Planet gets anyone to watch their garbage programming anymore.
Even sadder is the entire reason they made this faux documentaries was to put the sonar testing from the Navy in the spotlight in opposition of the negative impact it was having on marine wildlife.
Instead of just making a documentary on that itself, they made the decision to make it about Mermaids so the actual message gets lost.
Way to go, Animal Planet. The subtitle should not be "Suprisingly Human" it should be "No One Cares About Animals Anymore; They'll All Kill And Eat You Eventually".
