Oh I know all the reasoning and know all about simsibs. This isn't my first rodeo and no, the joke is not on me. This is why I sub to Shaw. I NEVER watch a show on a Canadian network or an American network that has been hijacked (simsubbed) by a Canadian network. I can watch the east or west feed, depending on Global, CTV, etc. and when they are showing it. My wife and I avoid Canadian simsubs 99.9% of the time on Shaw. Thank you Shaw.

And no, I shouldn't watch the Canadian networks. I don't want to see bad Canadian advertising (when and if we watch a commercial) and the show is not always identical...sometimes inferior HD is used or inferior sound quality and more time than not, previews for next week are taken out so Global or whoever can promote some other show they are simsubbing.

And don't get all high and mighty about Canadian jobs. Canadian networks choose to buy and resell American shows and don't put any money into creating Canadian content because it's cheaper, easier and something that Canandian's will actually watch. Don't blame the people wanting to watch the American content presented the way it is on American channels when Canadian networks don't lift a finger or spend any money to create Canadian shows, but just buy and resell the same content we already can get from American channels.

/hijack over...back to Almost Human.
