CBC screw-up

Today on CBC, they aired 9F19 "Krusty Gets Kancelled" yet the credits were for 9F08 "Lisa's First Word"? Anyone know what's up with that?

FUCK THE CBC! It's all part of the Canadian government's evil plan to turn them into commies.

No, I'm one of those brilliant Canadians. I don't think too many Americans would know what the CBC was...they'd probably try to correct me and tell me I meant to say CBS.

Since almost no American can get CBC, why would we know what it was? We have plenty of our own networks.

Are you sure? I could've sworn they do the syndication cuts. I know the comedy network and the A Channel in Calgary show Simpsons un cut.

I will be the final word. In Canada, CBC, Fox, and CFMT all show The Simpsons with syndication cuts. The Comedy Network does not. And the Saturday and Sunday Global reruns are uncut as well.

The CBC encourages sub-par Canadian programming. The CBC gives shows money purely to fulfill the CRTC's Canadian Content Regulations. Therefore, Canada has very few shows that can even compete with American shows. Because they are all rushed into production and there is no competition.

Once in a blue moon good shows come out of Canada. Kids in the Hall, SCTV, Tom Green, Twitch City, Newsroom.

That is why I left Canada and moved to the entertainment capital of the world---- LOS ANGELES, CA.

I live with black people and mexicans. My apartment is like watching Cops 24/7.

It's very entertaining

The CBC does not make Syndication cuts.

The CBC has one or two shows which I would consider "sub-par", but by and large, their content in the past five years at least, has been excellent, even in the fiction/entertainment end.

Could you please explain to me how they *cut* The Simpsons!?

The only example i can think of is when Bart and Abe are hugging after getting the art work from the bottom of the ocean - the local Ten Network (Aus) cut the bit "hey get a room" from the ancestor...

I'd like to read the following statement, but I do so under ... [sound of gun cocking] ... (gulp) my own free will. It has come to my attention that NBC sucks. I apologize for misleading you and urge you to watch as many Fox shows as possible. So in summary, NBC - bad. Fox - good.

...CBS great.

Well that was an assumed. We Canadians have magical powers.

Does french-canadians counts? A local-made (and quite well done) french dub of The Simpsons runs on two cable channels (TQS and Teletoon), most of the episodes not having those syndication cuts. Lately, though, there are more noticeable cuts and the end credits are reduced to a freezed frame of the episode number and info parts toward the end. Shame on that.
