TLC coaster show 3/21 - new?

Hey I am watching TLC right now and there is a new (or at least I think) coaster show on. It is an hour long and started at 8pm. They have a lot of MF, some Magnum, Raptor, etc. and some strange things like coaster-phobics and scientists talking about the different screams on coasters. Did anyone else see this? Is it new? Will it be on again?

Let me add that this is a GREAT show - in fact probably the best coaster show I have ever seen. If you missed it, you are DEFINITELY missing out. They had amazing footage of the construction of MF, and some great info on the construction of coasters and a piece on Arrow.

No Worries, Mr. SPARTAN, Survivor Was Only A "Highlights"-Type Show...No New Survivor Until Next Week ;)

p.s. auditions for SURVIVOR 3 will be held sunday, april 1, 2001 at Oakland Mall In Troy From 9 am- 5 pm....(too bad I can't go..it's WRESTLEMANIA Sunday..he he)

Should have skipped Survivor - I think they showed all of 60 seconds of new footage. Oh well, until next week - I'd rather see new coasters anyway! Thanks RG Rob, I'll catch it at 11pm!

The show is just ending.. I loved the MF construction shots.. also alot of good Maggie footage and Raptor.

But you have to wonder one thing... just how many days did TLC have to stay at PKI to get that 3 mins of SOB??? There's no way they went there and it actually worked long enough for them to shoot it all at once.. :)

It was a good coaster show, I taped it and we're watching it right now in first hour. We have a study hall today so I'm just on the schools PC with a nice T1. I needed a new show. One thing that I did'nt like about it was that they said that SOB was the first and only woodie to go upsidedown, that is not true, oh well.

Scream Machines is repeating on TLC:

Good show, and I just have to smile at all the old footage of Raptor and Magnum. But I am surprised that there was no coverage of Hypersonic XLC/Thrustair 2000, since it was definately an operational prototype when the show was filmed. Ah, well, it always helps the winter downtime to see a great coaster show!

One note: maybe IOA needs to have a class for types like us -- too much coasters, instead of not enough! :)

I watched it and I thought it was a damn cool show. Of course I spent a good part of it arguing with my Fiance's grandma that roller coasters are perfectly safe. But it was a good show nonetheless
