So... I'd known about "Anime Unleashed" on G4TechTV for some time, just from hearing about it on various Anime forums on the 'net... and today I got all excited when I noticed I can actually get TechTV through my internet cable service.
Then... after I realised I wasn't seeing Anime Unleashed every night.. I read this article.
Annoying... apparently, under the current agreement with the CRTC (Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission) regarding TechTV's ability to broadcast in Canada, they would be diversifying their programming too much by showing Anime Unleashed, thus risking infringing upon other television stations.
Except for the part where no other television station shows good anime in Canada.
I understand the reasoning, but at the same time, it makes me very "punchy".
Long story short, I guess I should just get an American satellite dish... you guys get that fancy schmancy Anime Network down there, too, don't you?
*envy*
