I missed the beginning... what exactly is the bupkis list? Also, it seemed that he had his foot on a switch and was able to pull the camera in when it was someone he didn't like talking and pull it back out when it was someone he did like. Sort of like the two colors of roses idea someone had early on. The message is, if you want to have the top of your head seen, behave yourself. And if you're really good, maybe we'll go back to selectively showing your faces.
He could have been kidding about the camera angle thing....but wouldn't it be funny if it were true. If that's the case we'll be seeing a lot of Gregory and Thomas's shoes. LOL!
