Their wet world, oddly enough, is not so different from our own. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSherman, a great white shark, is a typical guy, and Megan is his ruthless but nurturing wife. Rounding out the aquatic crew are Fillmore the turtle, geeky fish Ernest, and macho hermit crab Hawthorne. Salty old Captain Quigley, who lost his leg to Sherman years ago, is hell-bent on seeking revenge against the shark. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSherman and friends effectively reflect human behavior and occasionally must confront humans' encroachment on their unspoiled habitat.
