>>Thanks to NBC for presenting some effective 3d TV.

I must not have seen the same show.  I could barely detect any 3-D effects
and most very mild effects were almost accidental and lasted only a few 
seconds.  There was mostly flat time and even some pseudo during the "3-D
segments".  With any sort of knowledge and planning it could have been
much better.  It's almost as if they believed that just putting on the
glasses would make any tv 3-D.  There were a few seconds of horizontal
motion and every segment did have something like a rotating platform
as the camera spiralled outwards, but these effects were weak.  Sad to
say that as poor as the ABC 3-D was, it was better than this.  IMHO
