Maybe I'm late on this, I'm not sure, but apparently ANW2 in its entirety will be shown on Scify on the 16th of june. From facebook: Robert Escobar: Hey G-4 , The Scify channel is going to air last years , American Ninja Warrior show (June 16th at 3pm.) including the reality show . Whats going on Brian Corcoran: Whaaaaa? Robert Escobar Yeah ! I saw the commercial today on the Scify channel. Ninja Warrior Yep, Syfy is now our sister network, so they're giving ANW some love. Its a whole ANW2 marathon on 6/16.

Yup, there was a topic about this on the G4 boards. Interesting move indeed and it definitely is happening since it is on their schedule on their website.

Syfy's had wrestling on their network for the past few years, so ANW doesn't surprise me, especially since they've stopped considering themselves a complete science fiction channel.

Seems to be in line with the SASUKE on NBC thing: corporate synergy. Will be interesting if goes anywhere or not.

I'm not surprised with this seeing as they've toyed with game shows (Cha$e and Estate of Panic) in the past.
It'll probably be a one-time deal, but it's good exposure nonetheless.

Scnoi already answered, but yeah, says 2 in the first post. Probably a good thing they arn't showing 1.

Watched it last night, though I didn't know it was coming. Caught the last half of where the Red Dragons had to cut someone, then the final boot camp episode. I TiVoed the 2 episodes where they go to Japan as I was tired (up at 4am, 8 mile run in 100*, etc etc). It's so nice to see something Sasuke related since G4 got dropped from DirecTV.

I loved how it looked more presentable since that ridiculous G4 block wasn't there. I've always liked Syfy's logo. It's at the bottom right and it's practically invisible because it can blend in when needed and doesn't feel intrusive when you can see it.

Just got done watching the final 2 episodes and I have to say this. Man, have I missed Sasuke. I'm just glad I got broken back in with the ANW version first, as I'd probably have cried tears of joy had I watched the Japanese version. Any chance they might move NW to Sy Fy in the foreseeable future? I know it's technically not science fiction, but it's still better than some of the dreck they have now. I mean really, they show wrestling, why not NW? Anyways, it's some good motivation to work out harder. Maybe I'll even make it out to Cali if they have an ANC 4.
