Yep, it's a shame they canceled this project. I really enjoyed watching the episodes they were able to make.


Whereas I found it to be an uninteresting and contrived marketing exercise. You get 5 points for every minute in an episode where the contestants don't say "oh man".

Now if it were some hardcore CS, that would be interesting... but watching some devvies get to grips with a commercial API? It's about as interesting as a Special Olympics event: "walk 10 metres", minus the schadenfreude.


For those still willing and interested to watch the three episodes that were produced, despite w3bbo's verbal bashing Smiley, they are still located on MSDN TV you can access them via Wikipedia.

I especially enjoyed the Breaking Into Vegas episode, the last episode sadly. Crying
