It's that time of year again, folks—Shark Week is officially back!

The Discovery Channel summer phenomenon celebrates its 27th anniversary this year, so expect lots of amazing, shark-tastic television over the next seven days! Grab some snacks, pop a squat and get excited for hours and hours full of mega sharks, zombie sharks and hammerheads! Oh my!

Celebs love Shark Week just as much as the rest of us—maybe even more! Parks and Recreation star Rob Lowe rides two sharks in the awesome promo for the 2014 event and utters the phrase, "So sharky."

"Really Don't Care" singer Demi Lovato also shared her enthusiasm last week on Twitter by writing, "IT'S ALMOST SHARK WEEK!!!!!!!"

Comedian Stephen Colbert even declared Shark Week one of the most sacred holidays on The Colbert Report! "It is so easy to forget that the week after Christmas is one of the two holiest of holidays," he said. "The other being, of course, Shark Week."

Amen!
