I get a monthly email from Channel 5 updating me on their programming. In that email I noticed something that I believe is a first (A country outside of USA or Japan airing ANW). I believe Japan has aired some of it in cable?
American Ninja Warrior will premiere on January 22 at 7PM and run every Tuesday - Friday at 7pm (running as a half hour show). (to be followed by Sasuke Singapore also as a half hour show).
I'm thinking it's 3 because the description says top 10 went to Japan (to win $500k). Ya'll can correct me. I thought 1 and 2 had a prize of $250? If not then it's an earlier one. ANW banner is shown but we know they didn't change the banner with numbers like we do here in referring which one they are showing. I know they show the aired shows on their MSN page afterwards so maybe after the 22nd we can confirm exactly WHICH of the ANW's is being shown.

Most likely 3 because I don't think 1 had ANY prize money and 2 was a quarter of a million.

1 I forget the prize, 2 was quarter of a million, 3 was a K-Swiss Endorsement deal, 4 was half million but it wasn't tied to Japan so I dunno wtf they're airing...
Maybe it's possible that it is ANW1 since that had half hour eps instead of hour long eps like the other 3?

We'll find out soon enough. One thing though is that it was a half a million for 3 even if it was tied to an endorsement deal worth that much. As far as Channel 5 in Singapore is concerned it's all the same since we all know no one got it.. LOL

They did it! They finally got someone (other than US and Japan) to air ANW! They did it guys!
I hope Singapore enjoys it. Even if the boot camp portion may confuse the viewers.

Even Japan hasn't aired ANW, the closest they've ever gotten (Not counting competitors seen in original Sasuke broadcasts) was the Sasuke Overseas Special before 28 that showed Nagano at ANW and Sasuke Malaysia while giving some more insight on ANW4 and showing bits of notable runs |

It's like the rest of the world has no idea it even happened. |
