Something Bit Me offers a cool experience with a good narrator and good videos of animals and the environment. But you quickly realize the execution is abysmal. The show tries to create tense stories to make you really think "will this person survive the attack?" But they have one massive problem: they have the survivors telling the story from the start, so knowing they and everyone survived removes all tension before the attack is even talked about. It wouldn't be so bad if the re-enactments were good. They weren't, they were goofy at best. The show tries so hard to be dramatic and tense but fails incredibly miserably. It's a shame because I love animal documentaries and especially learning about these fascinating creatures. But it's so boring. I'm frankly flabbergast at how poor the execution was. Only watch if you want something in the background about animals, or maybe to laugh at some of the goofy re-enactments. The shaky camera parts makes me chuckle with an eye-roll every time.
