The 2008-2009 season of Metropolitan Opera "moviecasts" starts
on MONDAY, September 22.  They will be broadcasting the Met's opening
night, which will be a Renee Fleming gala.  There will be three 
fully staged, unconnected acts, to show off Ms. Fleming.  

As an opera buff I think this will be an interesting, novel experience,
but I doubt it would work for "the general public," who might 
prefer to see a story with a beginning, middle and end.
