With regards to the new bike: somewhere in the show (I think, it could have been on OTR to the Tour), Carmichael mentioned that Lance was not comfortable on the bike, and said something like, "He seems more comfortable with a standard-width bottom bracket".

So evidently, one of the aero tricks of the new bike was a narrower BB, and he doesn't like it. I think that would be a big thing to change, so I'm not surprised....
The show is really for true biking/Lance fans (it is on OLN for gods sake, which almost nobody gets). It should be mostly what he does to train and about his equipment. Team meetings, discussions with Johan and Carmichael. The wind tunnel was by far the best segment. They could sprinkle in the house in Spain, commercials and Sheryl Crow but the bulk of the show should be hard core bike stuff.
