Aim High was an enjoyable game to watch but i think FIRST is not cut out for Live TV.

Please hear me out

To be honest i don't think it is possible to have a TV worthy run of matches. even if they showed the a run of the finals from the regionals leading up to finals at nationals that would not make a TV show.

For an event such a FIRST to be on TV, viewers need to have a connection to the teams and to form their own opinions of who will win.

I don't know if you are familiar with a show on discovery called biker build off but that is how a FIRST show should be set up. they tape parts of the build so that viewers can form relationships with the builders. then they have a reason to watch. I taped the nationals at home while i was there and when i came home to watch it not even i could watch it. how could we expect non-FIRSTers to enjoy watch it.

I think First needs to be a series rather than an event plus how cool would it be to be on after mythbusters
