Here's my review of GS airing of SASUKE 25 last week for those who care to listen...
Basically, it was divided into 3 parts and 5 hours altogether (similar to TBS broadcast). I am glad GS picked up SASUKE 25 and we can were able to watch SASUKE again in Taiwan.
However, GS must have had advice from the TBS team as multiple spoilers were shown throughout the program showing people like Li and Kenji competing in stage 3 when they were still in stage 1. SASUKE was thrown together with other CNY specials and had a 5-10 second commercial within the other ones. Li was not anywhere to be seen promoting SASUKE unlike the previous competition. Also, a multitude of commercials were thrown into the program including a 10-minute infomercial before the end of part 2. GS would also rewind the tape back 5 minutes on numerous occasions after a commercial and so you had to sit through the same 5 minutes of footage again. This made it quite unenjoyable and likely turned off a lot of people.
Although I'm glad we saw SASUKE 25 and hope to see 26 in the near future, I was less than impressed in how they presented it. But looking at the examples that TBS and M9 set, can you really be surprised?

That's a shame they butchered it. Hopefully it went over well.
