I must agree completely with reviewer "Michelle": there isn't a lot of new information here. The whole premise is based on the new insights these portable laser scanners can give. Except 80% of the information in the show has already been derived *without* laser scanners.

There's a couple bits of neat information the scanners give, like the exact location of a sarcophagus inside the pyramid, or being able to determine that the 'Bent' Pyramid was purposely designed that way. But other than a few tidbits, these laser scanners aren't the star of the show.

I certainly appreciate the lasers' use for 3D mapping these great monuments, and I think it's great that teams are going around doing this. The information these scans will provide will be invaluable in the future, I'm sure. But I don't think they justify an entire show - unless the new information is absolutely groundbreaking.

Personally I think the team just needed funding to go around 3D mapping these sites - so they proposed this show. As mentioned in another review, this show should really be half-hour for the content it provides. At least in a half-hour show, the laser information would take up a better proportion of the allotted time.
