As we got to the end of February 1994, could we deliver pilots that would match our pitch? It is much harder to produce what seemed like a small amount of television than Halsey, Bettina or I could imagine. Kevin and his team were asked to create compelling content in what at the time was not the most interesting subject matter. Additionally, this idea of connecting TV and Online was a great big picture idea but it was not that obvious on how you actually execute. Finally, you needed to be credible and therefore your talent needed to be actually smart on the subjects. Finding talent that could be both smart yet good on camera would be a challenge. Most of those challenges would fall to Kevin.
These are great posts, the only history of CNET ever written and more's the pity. Watching these pilots reminds me of the genius of bringing in Dave Ross, still the best at what he does, and Tim Truman for his score that was to CNET as John Barry's was to the Bond films: Just right and elevating the whole thing.
