I too was pretty unimpressed, sampler or special, the production was pretty poor. Have we learned nothing from the Teutuls?? Pick one theme or one project and hammer it out. That's the way to engage an audience. If it was intended to be a sampler, it should have had the hosts in one place narrating what you're going to see. At many points, I couldn't tell whether I was watching the program or the commercials. It just felt like it was filmed for a 3:00 am audience and this could never make it in prime time slot. The descriptions contained in the schedule also show the programming jumping all over, and it's got no air dates next to the episode sequences, is episode #2 on Feb 20 at 7:30 am?? I don't know! So you have to tune into 3 minutes of each episode to follow superformance? That's pretty lame. "Rides" on TLC is a good production, and they film one project at a time.
