Nope. I don't get AZN. And for some reason they simply stopped giving me the International Channel. I think a couple of the guys in Freemont still get the IC, so maybe they get AZN.
As far as worrying about mentioning the AZN or IC or IA channels, I figure this thread is mainly about Japanese Dramas shown in the Bay Area. (The when? what time? is it any good? what's next? and the always important... I missed something! Can anyone help me out? conversations.)
KTSF is the grand daddy, and since it's a local station, and basic cable, I think most of us use it as our foundation.
But I, for one, have no problem with people discussing the other local options or possibilities.
Heck, I brought up the imagine asian network conversation, in the hopes that someone else was able to get it locally. (Jeez, I even went to radio shack and bought an antena to see if I could pick the station up that way. I couldn't.)
I may have to call comcast again and ask why I don't get the IA or IC channels, but I do get the TV Guide channel on both ch 11 and ch 28. _________________ Manga is to Literature

And this idea of calling Comcast is going well.
When I called them last week, I was told that IA was available only in S.F. county, but would eventually find it's way onto the East Bay's lineup.
When I called yesterday, I was told that comcast doesn't own IA. There are no plans to bring it to the East Bay. IA, according to the person I talked to, rents a public access channel on the S.F. line-up, and the only way to get them to the East Bay is to go to our City Council and make a formal request.

I"m back to hoping that someone who gets the network is recording the shows, and is willing to seed them on one of the file sharing sites... because I give up. _________________ Manga is to Literature

The IA Network put up a couple of email addresses on their site, so I emailed both of them.
[email protected]
and
[email protected]
Basically all I said was, I live in the East Bay, and I'm ticked off that I can't get iatv on my comcast lineup.
Drop them a note. Tell them they have an audience outside S.F. County (probably a much bigger audience out here in the burbs). Being in N.Y. they probably don't know. _________________ Manga is to Literature

By the way... I watched the first episode of Warriors this morning...
Man, if only the guys who did the fight choreography, camera work, and editing for " Warriors..." had been hired to do the same on "Yoshitsune".
I think the look of the fight scenes in Warriors is what they wanted for Yoshitsune, but they had to make a choice.
Spend the money on a script, some actual actors, and concern yourself with storytelling.
Or dump all the dough into some kick ass (for TV) fight scenes.
I'm gonna stick with Warriors for a while... to see if they can develop the other side of the series.
But boy, watching both shows sure does show you the stark contrast between Japanese and Chinese costume drama. _________________ Manga is to Literature

Googling is returning some other temples, including the major one on Miyajima, which I didn't know he built--I've actually been there, whee! It's an amazing place.

I assume you are referring to Itsukushima Shrine. Yep. I't is indeed a very beautiful temple/shrine!!
