Fish Bowl 2015 Date, Time & Theme: This Year's Fish Will Swim in a Barnyard Setting for Four Hours
The Super Bowl is arguably the biggest televised event of the year, but there are other bowls aiming to take its place.
For those who prefer something a bit more warm and cuddly, animal-themed Super Bowls are right up your alley. And though, fish may not get as much love as other animals, Nat Geo Wild has something for lovers of aquatic life.
The Fish Bowl is one of the newest bowls. It is in its second year, and this year's broadcast will feature various fish swimming tirelessly in aquariums for four hours. This year's "Fish Bowl" also features a change in location – the fish will now be swimming in a barnyard setting.
Tune in to Nat Geo Wild's second annual Fish Bowl on Sunday at 3 p.m. EST, according to the network's site.
Critics have previously slammed the animal Super Bowl for being silly, but people cannot help tuning in.
Each of the animal bowls have ranked in impressive numbers – considering their subjects.
Last year's Puppy Bowl garnered 13.5 million viewers throughout the day, while the Kitten Bowl garnered 1 million viewers. The Fish Bowl garnered a total of 27,000 viewers in its debut year in 2014.
The New York Post reports the animal Super Bowl first began 10 years ago when Animal Planet aired the Puppy Bowl, which features various canines running on a field and scoring touchdowns with their chew toys.
This year's Puppy Bowl will air Sunday on Animal Planet at 3 p.m. EST, Oregon Live reports.
Due to the success of the Puppy Bowl, other networks have since created their own animal-themed Super Bowls.
Next came the Hallmark Channel's Kitten Bowl celebrating its second year on air with host, Beth Stern.
This competition features kittens climbing miniature goal posts, chasing invisible mice and taking naps in between. The Kitten Bowl is presented in association with North Share Animal League America and Last Hope Animal Rescue and Rehabilitation.
Hallmark's Kitten Bowl airs on Sunday at noon eastern.
