With Discovery Channel’s 2008 Shark Week upon us now, you know Mike Rowe and company aren’t far behind. In fact, Dirty Jobs has a new Shark Week special airing Tuesday, July 29th, entitled “Greenland Shark Quest.”

In this special episode of Dirty Jobs, Mike heads to the edge of the Arctic Circle, on the northeast side of Canada’s Baffin Island in search of one of the most mysterious sharks known to man: the Greenland shark.

Be sure to tune in to this and the other Shark Week programming.

There may not be anymore new episodes of Dirty Jobs scheduled to air in the immediate future, but Discovery is airing a marathon of Dirty Jobs episodes this Sunday afternoon (June 29th).

There’s a new episode of Dirty Jobs this Monday. Mike Rowe gets dirty in Alaska as he helps protect the environment by cleaning up an oil spill and then travels to Minnesota where he works to pull a car out of a lake that has fallen through the ice.

The show will be off the following week, so “Ice Salvage Crew” will have to tide us all over until the first week of June.

A few videos have surfaced in recent days that give us glimpses into Monday night’s new episode, “Turkey Inseminator.” Check them out below:

Welcome to Dirty Jobs with Mike Rowe, our fansite to one of Discovery’s flagship shows, Dirty Jobs. Like those of you who are reading this, we are very big fans of the show. Dirty Jobs not only has an excellent concept, but it is hosted by one of the best possible hosts, Mike Rowe.

Mike has a long history of voiceover work, but he really shines when he’s out of the recording studio and in the field (or sewer or farm). Armed with a quick wit, Mike is always ready to make light of some terrible situations. His “everyman” quality is endearing and is undoubtedly one of the reasons the show is such a hit on Discovery.

Browse the website a little bit. It’s still a new site, so we have a lot of content to add. But the episode guide is in terrific shape. You won’t find a more accurate episode guide anywhere!
