Think about it this way: Tekzilla offers daily pint sized shows and one full length show during the week. I would bet anything that they probably still have the same probably as yours.
"You cant make all of the people happy all of the time...." (somewhere along those lines)
I believe that when it comes to shows like Hak.5, getting the full message and tutorial across should be more of a concern than getting the show to fit into a small time slot.
Im in a career field that would be merged if the program ends up alive. Since I have a 6 year commitment, I'm sure I'll never get to see it while I'm in lol.
