"Welcome to the Family", Porsche documentary

There was a 30 minute documentary tonight on IFC tonight, called, "Welcome to the Family", ostensibly about the Panamera as the latest addition to the fabled Porsche marque.

Anyone catch it?

As it happens, I was interviewed for the film, but my footage didn't make the final cut. They chose far sexier stories than mine, which was about my use of the 997S as a daily driver: hauling 250 lbs of sod in my bonnet, along with 3 toddlers in car seats home from soccer practice, running groceries in the AM, laps in the PM, etc.

However, you can see the left side of my hairline behind Seinfeld's ear in many clips, next to the guy reading the newspaper.

In any case, it is a stunningly beautiful 30 minute vignet on the Porsche marque, and the love for it. I recommend it. Even though my feelings are hurt, cutting me was probably good for resale value

Sounds great! I hope I can find it and check it out. Congrats on being the Kevin Costner (The Big Chill) of the Porsche documentary. ;>)

Anyone could record them on hdtv and post the 1st and the upcoming episodes on rapidshare.com? I know its a hassle but if anyone could, I'd really appreciate it I'm sure I'm not the only one who would want this so bad

Do you have the url for this on IFC? When I search through IFC, I can't find a video to check it out. I did set my DVR to record the 10/25 episode, but I'm too impatient to wait
