I see this as a good way for more people to introduce themselves to other ideas and ways of thinking. It doesn't seem to be intended as a "free Stanford education," but rather a way for a large group of people to have access to the ideas and types of things that are going on at the University.
I don't think this will automatically be a bad show. It could be funny, after all, Space Ghost did alright. Though I think the fact that it's on the internet will doom it to obscurity, since internet programs don't seem to have as big a following as traditional television shows.
