    Repeat, repeat, repeat

    There are a mimimum of 3 repeated acts each episode. Whoever the producers and editors are failed dismally at their jobs.

    1st episode, all new content, 2nd episode 3 you saw last episode and one new. 3rd episode, you have already seen them all execpt one....again, and that one isn't an act ot was a side content piece. 4th... do you really want to see these again?

    We spent more times fast forwarding than watching the show. I was seriously disappointed as the opening is much better than the entire episodes. Someone dis not bother to go through the content, label it, design the episodes, etc. This shows why story boards are important to plan content. The fact that this could have been an incredible show is so what made it disappointing.

    Each individual act, and each short, are great. If you don't mind doing a lot of fast forwarding then go ahead and give it a try. The content is well done and the commentaries are all good. The only issue are the repeats.
