"Pirate Hunters: USN"

Spike TV has announced the forthcoming pilot of a new series called "Pirate Hunters: USN," calling the timing "serendipitous," while others wonder when this week's drama will hit the silver screen. According to E! Online:

Pirate Hunters promises an "up-close and behind-the-scenes" look at the buccaneer-combating Navy operations on two warships, the USS San Antonio and USS Boxer-the same assault ship Phillips was taken to immediately after his rescue. The show will be set in the Gulf of Aden in the open waters off the coast of Djibouti, bordering Somalia and Ethiopia.

Apparently the public can't get enough of pirates, even in their scary modern guise.
