Set Your "TiVos"

Most animation fans will be watching the last quarter of the Pittsburgh - San Diego on Saturday night, but I'm sure all you TV lovers will find a way to catch to catch the rebroadcast of Moment of Death, the Explorer special we worked on for the National Geographic channel.

It's an hour-long program that broadcasts at 7 PM on Saturday, January 10th.

This special grew out of our collaboration with Mark Mannucci for Thirteen/WNET's Curious.

It's an interesting show with even more interesting parts that didn't make the final cut (to be available on the DVD and in earlier posts of this "blog").
