I can't imagine another broadcaster from any other country in the world buying the rights for something and then being told that a foreign feed with different, unpaid ads would be running against it in the same market. It just wouldn't fly.
Perhaps, but how is a Canadian broadcaster going to re-coup "big bucks" on crappy cross-promotions of "This is Us"? What do they pay exactly?
Why do other US broadcasts just show the regular US (local Seattle or Spokane) commercials? I don't really get it.

O.K. there has been a lot of talk on whether or not MacTavish has actually done a good job for us, most fans on this board are very basic in their analysis and I feel would change their opinion entirely if the team was successful.
