This is my take as a viewer since the inception of the first Bitcoin Show episode.

Simple put: The Bitcoin Show is a FAILURE because:

1. Over exaggerated comments Bruce has made that has been shown to be untrue.
2. Lack of content.
3. Blatent censorship/ignoring of important questions (i.e. Why an Mt. Gox auditor needed the plaintext database of users).
4. Unrealistic expectations of bitcoin saying bitcoin only goes "up up up".
5. Making claims of security/decentralization being VERY IMPORTANT then having 25000 btc in one place on a third-party site.
6. Taking 20 shows to get an audio issue fixed. Seriously if you can't hear the show what's the point in watching it.

I do respect the fact that Bruce did come on-air and addressed the mybitcoin.com fiasco but that does not take away from the fact that the show he runs to promote bitcoin is a failure.

Thank whatever deity you wish, I'm glad that someone else with a higher post count voiced this opinion. It's completely true. It started out as a good show with some vision, and now it's just a mess of ego and poor judgement - IF - it even airs at all. When he does have a show, it's a giggle fest with his laptop. I was alright with that for a while, but it's annoying to watch him interview someone while he fumbles around with his laptop paying only passing attention to his guest. It's amateur hour at its finest.
