IIRC, it's Preview, an hour of news, then Sasuke 10 min Sasuke preview? I'd watch that. So some of us could sign on an hour and 10 minutes before the time Sasuke airs in our state?

OK. The schedule is up on the TBS site. Sato had it wrong. The "preview" is at 19:50 (7:50), and runs right into the main competition.
Just to make things easier: SASUKE Navi on the 29th from 14:00 JST SASUKE on the 30th from 19:50 JST

So basically the preview is what starts at 7 AM and then after it ends the competition itself comes on?
And the Navi is saturday night at 1 AM?

I read somewhere that the Kanto region had it at a different time.. I don't care.. I'll be up before 5 am that day anyway and I always go by the Main TBS site and that has never been wrong for me in the past. Thanks a bunch for pointing that out and I'll change that on my blog later. So for us we just watch at 6:50 eastern and stay up all morning mwahahhahahahah

The 10 minute preview is RIGHT BEFORE Sasuke 22 on Monday Morning in the USA. Sasuke Navi is on Sunday morning in the USA at 1 AM eastern (wait.. that is Saturday night... /sigh.. fine.. okay I get it.. gaaaaaaaaah)

The 10 minute preview is RIGHT BEFORE Sasuke 22 on Monday Morning in the USA. So turn on either Keyhole or TVAnts at 6:40 AM instead of 6:50? I still am not used to calling 1AM part of the morning. XD And if I'm not used to it by now I never will be. At least I got the time right! XD

Sasuke starts at the top of the hour at 8 pm local time (7 AM here) so the only difference was that the original time for the 10 minute preview was an hour before.. now it's just before the show.

At least now I know that I should start my streaming program at the end of SNL for the Navi and at 6:40 AM for the Preview and Main Event. And a 10 minute preview starting 10 minutes before the broadcast.. Kind of defeats the purpose of a Preview doesn't it?

I dunno. Ask US Television executives and they'd say it's a great way to promote a game show.

It's just something to fill the time while other shows go to commercial. And it's not like it's something that they're doing nation-wide. The Sportsman Navi being available to everyone was an aberration. This SASUKE Navi and the "preview" are only being shown to the greater Tokyo area (which is where we get all the ratings data from anyway).

Well lets hope the guy streaming is in/near Tokyo.
So basically the point of the preview is to get channel surfers to turn on Sasuke after what they're watching is over?
