An Airing of Grievances

I was just watching episodes of the unjustly cancelled Sym-Bionic Titan that I PVR’d around New Year’s (there was a set of marathons running at the time), and it got me thinking about Cartoon Network Canada’s schedule. SBT is in repeats in the Toonami block of Cartoon Network/Adult…a block of programming us Canucks don’t get, unfortunately.

The FAQ addresses this (in a roundabout, condescension-with-a-huge-smile way), in addition giving you a reason for redirecting you when you try to access cartoonnetwork.com. It’s a good way to avoid questions about why the U.S. schedule is so much better than ours, questions they get anyway if the FAQ is an indication. Pretty cyclical, eh? Anyway, I decided to write what you see above. It probably won’t change a damn thing, but making my voice heard feels good. I’m also doing it because I’m not a dude that’s into torrenting programs (not judging if you do, though). It’d be great to see those shows here without goin’ on some piracy bullshit.
