Thank goodness I'm not going crazy. i saw the guide for the Discovery Channel and DVR'd it only to have an episode featuring denim jeans, Wilson footballs and Selmer trumpets. Admittedly, it was interesting, but not what I was hoping.
peace

Last we heard here was that it was going to air on June 11th. Not sure of the times yet, but I'll keep you posted. I too thought it was going to be on the other night and was dissappointed to see it wasn't. For some reason they had some management issue as to how they were going to approach the new show "Factory Made". Initially they told us it was going to be more personable with actual operators talking instead of having a background voice. I think that was the major issue for the delay. I must not have impressed them when they played the footage back for editing. I see the new show is pretty much the same as the old one "How It's Made".

Anyhow, I hope you enjoy it when it does air. They spent almost 3 full days in our factory taping and they were long days.

Take Care
