guys, it's not so much the FCC sucking as it is Dish Network and the CBC having to pay for the US broadcast rights of any of the CBC's shows.. that would become prohibitively expensive for both the CBC and Dish Network. For much of its history, Trio (now sleuth) *did* clear most of the CBC schedule, though... and many border cable systems (Toledo, Detroit, Buffalo, Seattle) carry CBC affiliates from nearby cities.
What movie ending is this before this sign off video starts?
