Nasa television is a joke.

Other than launches and probe landings, I can't stand to watch it. It's about as exciting as watching a PBS telethon. The "kid shows" are totally lame and the other programs are so boring they would put the best sleep medicine to shame. They seriously need to put some media savvy people in charge of operations. I've seen public access shows that had far better production values, and were far more entertaining.
