BBC global TV spectacle

Has anyone seen the BBC global TV cast What the world thinks of America?
It is a poll and talk fest in a dozen or so countries, worldwide. The outcome is pretty negative, in various degrees, for the Bush administration.
Towards the end of the program, the US conservative ideologist Robert Kagan ("Americans are from Mars, Europeans from Venus.") stated that the Bush administration would not be interested in such polls and opinions anyway.
The opinion of 'the rest of the world' indeed seems futile. Wouldn't the question "What America thinks of the world" be more interesting?
