That's interesting - I had not considerd "Bump in the Night". The 
other show near that time slot, "Reboot" is a real possibility for
capturing 3D since as best as I can tell, it's a fully modelled 
computer render. In fact, for computer people, I highly recommend it - it's
really clever. Last week, for example, there was a scene modeled
on "Planet of the Apes" where one of the robots is in a desert, and
says "The Mainiacs! They blew it all up!". I about fell out of my
chair on that one.  ROTFL as they say.

The only bad thing is a) it's pretty early (here) on Saturday morning and
b) it's been cancelled by ABC. I understand it's been renewed in Canada
though, so hopefully further episodes will eventually be available from there.

There's a web page devoted to it (can't remember the name, sorry - have
to check Altavista) which is pretty interesting reading.
