I like Ziggy and profiles of players and such – and I’m a geek for the Blue Angels – but this was a long build up to him actually flying and not much else. A lot of gentile conversations between him and the pilots and ground crew, walking from one building to the next, riding in a van, Ziggy driving everyone to the base in the morning, etc. Very little baseball.

I suppose the flight was only a few minutes, but is seemed like the producers could’ve done a lot more to make a half hour show about Ziggy more interesting. I’m sure I’ll still sit through it again though!
