synopsis
Sharks! has nothing to do with Jaws, even though it was telecast the same year that the Spielberg classic was released. The shark in this instance is of the "loan" variety. When the villain causes the murder of an Indian girl, cowboy cop McCloud (Dennis Weaver) takes the case. McCloud poses as a businessman in desperate need of money, the better to defang the shark. This 2-hour episode of the TV series McCloud first aired February 23, 1975.
