The 3D traffic light buttons looks cheaply made by some outsource poor country person using GIMP. They looked better than this in Panther and Tiger.

Go to the Apple TV app. Go to the Home page. Drag the corner to make the window as wide as possible. The scroll bar on the right side falls off the window. You can actually see the scroll bar slide off and die like someone jumping off a bridge.
