Can't disagree with the article. I've heard his style is deliberately unconventional and the way KR was launched really shows someone who believes in the power of multimedia. KR being in theaters (with "First Looks" before movies and the cardboard stands), its media blitz in print and TV before its debut etc. no doubt contributed to its success thus far. I just hope his vision works because NBC is hardly in the top spot right now (but it's not in the bottom either).
