Default FPAG 2010/11 Season [MRG]

With the first heavy snow dump of the season coming in the next few days, what better way to kick off the Christmas season then a little clip of our favorite holiday tradition on CP.



Last year to be quite honest he was pretty disappointing, here's to redemption on the 2010 edition of FPAG!

I love that my FPAG youtube video still gets traction. Sadly, I'm on Bell now. FP, yes. AG, no.

EDIT: I guess now is as good an anytime for the Holiday sig and avitar.

I think last year they had an HD channel dedicated to the fireplace and tree, if only they had a Andrea Slobodian channel.

wranglers FPAG 2010/11 Season

It's right around this time we start to see the arm come out of hibernation.

I noticed there's a few new PPV channels on shaw titled Holiday Fireplace... but it's $0.99/day to see it!

Anyone know if the free version will be making an appearance again?

They're donating to charities. It should be a one time $2 donation, not per day.

Oh FPAG, what a holiday tradition! I can hardly wait until I get to experience him in glorious HD! Who is shelling out for this channel?

What the hell, if I don't have to pay for Sportsnet One then I won't pay for a fireplace on my TV! Who do we have to call at Shaw to protest this PPV service?

This is an outrage!!! I paid the dollar and the feed cut off after just over an hour.

I guess I'll just start a real fire.

I don't mind paying for a charitable donation but it looks like it's a dollar for two hours.

Apparently, Shaw got so much negative feedback from their PPV idea that they've relented and made it free on The Frame channel: http://twitter.com/ShawInfo/status/10818381284376577

We've heard your feedback, and the #Shawfireplace channel is now free on the Frame throughout the holidays! #Shaw #Happyholidays

About time.

Upon first look, I saw the exact same clip that Proto captured in 2007. So no new footage this year. Damn shame.

Good news everyone!

Channel 212 HD has the log on, as well as 165 I think for non HD.

Let the updates begin!

Also Shaw is offering FPAG wallpaper themes.

SWEET, i found it on frame around midnight last night and thought it was just their free preview.

I'd be down with paying 2 bucks for charity for the month of December for it. Not 99c per freaking hour
