I find it interesting that media coverage for this has been light. Promotion has been almost nonexistant.
MTV has chosen to run back to back episodes of America's Next Top Model rather than participate with coverage. VH1 has no coverage as well, in fact the only Viacom product that is broadcasting it is Sundance Channel.
I was watching the Shanghai footage and wow, just wow, the director was just like a drowning person flailing about with cuts that made no sense, shots that were not framed, and many newbie director mistakes. Horrific for a live broadcast.
The interstitial that I saw, had something about Coal people and how it is unsustainable from cut down trees, and it is used to make pig iron which is shipped to America and is in every product that contains steel from cars to bathtubs. It's a horrible unsustainable cycle promoting global warming and child slave labor. I was like WTF? You didn't mention child labor at all and then toss it in as an emotional button? WTF is that. I tuned out from there.
I'm going to get me some Dim Sum where they use steel carts heated with propane gas in an airconditioned gigantic restaurant here in Chinatown.
