Well it could be that but you also got to consider ANW1 was shown in two marathons, The qualifier and one episode of Semi-Finals one week, Next week the rest of Semi-Finals, Failnals.. I mean Finals.. and the Sasuke 23 runs. So that could just mean they're doing the same of split into two weeks I thought of this, but wouldn't they announce it as "catch it December 8th and 15th" instead "starting on December 8th"? The use of the word "starting" makes it sounds like it's a long thing, but, like I said, I could just be G4 ran out of money and put the janitor on editing duty. LOL this is G4 afterall Though to be fair.. they have consistently used this terminology with all of their shows.. even the ones that were canceled almost immediately after their first 2-3 showings..

I said before. It's on the Facebook. Wednesday 8-11PM EST. That's 6 30 min episodes or 3 hour long episodes. At that rate they'll finish the whole thing before Christmas if they do it every Wed. from 8 - 11. Meaning they may show the Japan course if they follow the format from ANW1 before TBS does...

gtoneko - G4 is not trying. They are getting worse and worse and considering that they are paid employees for an OFFICIAL broadcast.. it's horrid to think that fans can get things right when the OFFICIAL broadcast is incomplete, inaccurate and inconsistent. Not the Sasuke broadcasts, I meant the other shows, mainly just AOTS and X-play that they are trying some. I already know that the broadcasts for Sasuke are trashed up.

I've seen the show in the past, and each week, it's been getting worse and worse. I really hope that they aren't trying to improve their shows. Because if they are, oh boy.

The way it sounded to me is that G4 IS trying and, in their mind, they're doing better than ever before.

My thoughts on G4 airing SASUKE 26 in December:
There are multiple threads on here diagramming blog pictures to see what all the obstacles are, scouting Japanese blogs to see who all is competing, and analyzing every relevant or irrelevant piece of information that comes our way. But yet, G4 is going to air the course and ten runs in their entirety and you're going to turn your backs and boycott it? G4 is how 99% of us got involved with SASUKE and now they're doing something good. Deal with it. If you don't want to watch ANW2 next month, then stop trying to make a mental picture of the course and scoop up random information for the broadcast in January.

Some people purposefully avoid spoiler topics and wait to watch the competition on TBS or G4. They have a right to be displeased with G4's idiotic editing. As you said, deal with it.

All I can say is that I hope G4 uses some common sense and filters out as many spoilers as possible. I won't boycott ANW2 since I'm looking forward to it and I'm not against part of Sasuke being aired here first (yes I really did just say that I'm extremely happy that ANW (the trials part) is before Sasuke because the 10 Americans will truly be a complete surprise this time (mostly ).

If you don't want to watch ANW2 next month, then stop trying to make a mental picture of the course and scoop up random information for the broadcast in January. It's one thing to look for obstacle pictures and to see who competed that day. It's COMPLETELY different to air 10% of the competitors separate from the main broadcast (not to mention potentially before the broadcast even airs in its home country) and then not only make it seem like the course was created just to have them run, but be contradictory and air the main broadcast pretending that 10% never happened (to the point where no camera angles showing the ANW10 are shown and even having your narrator say incorrect information in terms of who cleared). Two completely different situations, you just sounded like the genius running the FB/Twitter pages with that statement. All I can say is that I hope G4 uses some common sense Common sense hasn't existed in G4 since 2007, safe to say it's not coming back.

Actually from what I'm hearing most people are going to watch most of ANW2 until they get to the last 2 episodes.. then they are going to wait until March (yes March.. not January) to see Ninja Warrior 26 and hope the Americans are in that (at least the ones that succeeded - if any). Many can't watch the show without some sort of translation. Only the hardcore can since they ignore what's being said anyway and they are just looking at the visual presentation and enjoying the music. The majority of people though can't do that and prefer to watch it unspoiled. Lord knows though that before 26 they will rerun all of ANW2 again anyway..

My plan is to watch the ANW2 trials. Then I will see the TBS broadcast. Then NW26 on G4 in March. I know-lengthy.

Sorry for bumping the topic but since DirecTV and G4 haven't reached an agreement.. Can someone who has a different TV provider record it and manage to put it online to put up in a certain place? I don't want to miss it just because of what service I have...

Good. Sorry to put all the burden on you, but seeing as we switched to DirecTV two months ago, there will be no ANW2 for us either.
And to think, I was thiiiis close to buying a capture device a month ago.

Wow, I just realised that ANW is only 9 days away. Everything seemed so far away, but it's just about here.
