Kind of interesting on the ANW area of G4, they actually had a photo of the "new" first obstacle for 23. I'm kind of wondering what G4 will call the Junidantobi... Instead of being correct with translations I kind of expect G4 name to be "Log Steps"....

I call it the 12 steps Doubtful such a crappy name will stick though.

I talked to someone working on editing ANW earlier this morning and they said that they don't have a set date for when ANW will air. I guess Dec 12 is just a tentative date.

Yeah, I saw them late last night thanks to Shane (AscentPK). He got a LOAD of airtime! They also show the Rope Swing, the Warped Wall, and some nice take-outs.

So I guess they made their own final stage? News to me. I was thinking they would have to run the course again. I wonder if all 15 will run at once and the first 10 to finish go to Japan.

I did notice their "training" finals had multiple courses set up at once, so I guess it was a race mechanic there (And that's why Levi came in first place probably) And something I noticed about a couple of pictures to results we knew... From The pic from Shane's run it looks like he timed out before the Tarzan Rope because he lost too much time on the Soritatsu Kabe because it looks like he missed there. And from the picture of Caine on the Slider Jump we can see he was at the end of the track with 38 seconds, so it looks like he lost alot of time on the net but up until there had an average to good pace. We also know he had 13 seconds when he got onto the Rope Ladder at the end of the third stage and timed out just as he got over and was on the bridge, this confirms the slider jump theory proving he's bad with nets (which makes you wonder how he got there considering the big as net climb at the end of the (Apparently semi-)finals course

If anything the second theory is more plausible becuase I actually have proof.

So I was watching Ninja Warrior 19 Parts 2 and 3 this morning (poor Colin), and every once in a while they'd put up a countdown thing for something about an ANW premiere and it would say 7 hours and something minutes and something seconds... so looking at the time there should be something at 5pm before X-Play today (Central time so 6pm Eastern). The channel guide just says Cops is going to be on, so unless I somehow didn't see anything that remotely had anything to do with 'days' then I'm just going check it out anyway.
-Just saw it again... 40 minutes later and the countdown doesn't have a day thing so apparently something's going on in 6 hours and 19 minutes from now.

Really I'm going to record 2 hours before and 2 hours after so I can catch it. (Of course, it could be a big f up on G4s part.)

Either they're showing a preview on AOTS, or they messed up the graphic big time because Season 2 of Human Wrecking Balls premiers tonight.

G4 lied!!! I'll just see if they have anything on AOTS then.
-Nothing on AOTS either. I know it wasn't a Human Wrecking Balls countdown because it didn't say that and it wasn't yellow or look like the ones they had during X-Play and AOTS and it would've been two hours off.

Just saw an ad on G4's webpage (note not the ANW webpage, just in the ad bar).
The premier is Dec 12.
Also, there are new videos up.

Hmm the vids have been there for a week. I think the only thing new is that one video they added on the Ninja Warrior side.

Just saw a TV spot. The guy said American Ninja Warrior begins on December 12 and it was in text as well.
