Re: FIRST to be on the Disney Channel: I Need Suggestions

I just saw it in the middle of Kim Possible. I was a little disappointed that there wasn't more about FIRST. It focused on Daniel who participates in a national robotics competition (I can't remember the exact phrasing, but it was something to that effect). He's a programmer and does CAD for his team. They showed some pictures of the competition and had a clip of him playing with the robot in what I assume is 294's shop.

But I do understand why they didn't talk about FIRST, so I guess it's alright. The purpose of those segments is to show kids doing great/big/interesting/important things. Talking about FIRST isn't as important to Disney as showing a kid that works with robots in a national competition.
