Not even the Jaws theme?

I'm going to take a crack at fixing the site upgrade issues tomorrow (Wednesday) evening, so expect some possible downtime or other weirdness.

Impressions:

It's so incredibly disappointing that they didn't go for an actual Jaws parody here. You have to assume that's what they were thinking, but they didn't really get any further on that train of thought than "involves a shark." A large sick shark, somehow? I legitimately don't think they ever actually mentioned what was wrong with it. It was just berserk…ish? And needed brain surgery, which the local fish people couldn't provide, but are happy to hover around. Kind of seems like they should've been revealed much sooner and could've done a whole thing over who's in league with who, and trying to help or warn away from the crazy shark-person. 

Anyway, somehow, this was apparently the character episode for the emo doctor dude, which is a bit surprising because 75% into the episode, he had possibly the fewest lines and screentime of every character. But here we are, performing melodramatic brain surgery on a monster shark, who's both too smart to fall for throwing a grenade at him, but also stupid enough to fall for someone putting a grenade on a fishing line being held by the squirrel. Speaking of which, what on earth was up with the animation of it when they found the beached shark? In this age of digital animation/art, blobby off-model things are much rarer and that was… oof.
