Yes, the show is hosted by '经济半小时', (literal: Economics in half an hour), a famous economics talk show in China. It gives a positive overview of Bitcoin, touching on various aspects of Bitcoin (including Bitcoin in Cyprus and the impact in China by interviewing a few Chinese Bitcoin users), and the general Bitcoin economy in China. They touched on friedcat's ASICMiner venture, Avalon and other ASIC companies in China, interviewed a couple of financial analysts working for banks in China, Canada's house for sale in BTC, coffee shops taking BTC in China, interviewed a bitcoiner from Brazil residing in China for the low electrical costs (and a lot of backstory), showed them a sale using Bitcoins, and a lot more. They even interviewed a Bitcoin hedge fund manager in China, which says that he has been getting increased interest in Bitcoin investment lately and a lot more positive stuff.

I can't cover much atm as I'm going out soon though - I'm merely reading the script here: http://jingji.cntv.cn/2013/05/03/VIDE1367596319388137.shtml

In a nutshell, this is quite a concise overview of Bitcoin, and everything is shown in a positive light apart from the regular warnings (careful of investing, bubble concern, tulip mania etc).
