Sounds boring.
There are plenty of other tech shows that have run for years on a shoestring budget. I look forward to checking it out.

Apple: playing chess while Samson plays checkered.
A show about appetizers will always leave you hungry for more . . .

Yes please! LCD (lowest common denominator) is pure nausea.
Hours and hours of an unremitting Apple infomercial with Apple executives uttering the words “amazing” and “powerful” in every other sentence. It’s true! Maybe CIA could use it to torture ISIS captives until world opinion believes water boarding would be more humane.

Looking forward to check it out.

High drama. Salacious and seductive plot. Suspense and intrigue. Action and adventure packed.
