I thought they did good job of describing the far-future fix for freezing
damage (nano).  It would have been better, in my opinion, to go into
greater detail about the progressive research in cryoprotectants, and how
those will improve in the very near future.  I'm sure it's much harder to
find "experts" for cryonics than against.  

Additionally, I thought they gave too much weight to that one cryobiologist
is seemed to be personally against cryo in every way.

I watched it with a group of people who are negative about my decsion (at
best they are neutral), and the show seemed to give them more ammunition
against me.

Overall, it was good to see a suspension, and the various groups (I had
several people tell me I should try and save some money and switch from
Alcor to CI???).  The winch problem maybe should have been edited out, but
it shows we are human after all.
