This is very cool, but I really do wish they'd go to some parks I've never seen onscreen before. SFoG, SFStl, Lake Compounce, Silverwood, SFFT....so many I'd like to see video of.

Ah, what do I care, I don't even have cable....

Yeah, I'm sick of seeing Magic Mountain and Cedar Point on TV. Give us something different. I'm all for Silverwood. I'm dying to see footage of Timber Terror and Tremors in action.

Just say no to Gerstlauer!
Does this mean that the show will be airing every wednesday night? That's really exciting. And to think that they could have 3 new coasters featured every week. Is this what is going on?
Unfortunately, no... "The Tech of:..." is the show and they talk about something different each week - roller coasters, aircraft carriers, movies, etc...
What channel is the show on??? I havent heard of the show so any info of how it can be seen would be greatly appreciated!!

One of the reasons you see SFMM on TV so much is that it is so close to the media mecca, LA. Its much cheaper to just drive up the road and film instead of flying across the country.

2002 - the year of IB's LoCoSuMo!!

Mamoosh, exactly. It just shows how cheap the producers are. They say, "Hey let's go to SFMM 'cause it's close, and CP because it's the only out-of-state park I've heard of!"

I guess I'll be missing this one. My cheap cable company doesn't have the TechTV Chanel.

Nothing... NOTHING... can prepare you for... the Fourth Dimension!

Of course they're gonna talk about the "state-of-the-art" S:TE. It launches you from 0-100 mph in 7 seconds and you go soaring up a 415 ft. tower! Yep. That was awesome a few years ago. Now S:TE is boring. I take it they don't know about air-launched rides yet. How's 0-107 in 1.8 seconds feel, TechTV? Huh?!

Less than 2 weeks until SFGAm opens!

well, considering TechTV is only available on digital cable (its in the 120+ section...), its ont going to be on the basic cable lineup.
