Ergo Proxy?

Okay, this station automatically WINS. Ergo Proxy is simply amazing.

This should be interesting. Especially since CNN ratings have been down I think. The anime market isn't growing so new forms of distribution are always welcome.

I like the timing of this: JUST before SciFi starts AniMonday.

For those of us who don't know and have never heard of Fuse before now:

It like a MTV channel.

I heard about this news in early May. Just didn't care to say anything, since I never heard of the channel before and I only know one person that gets that channel.

It's a music channel that mostly caters to the punk/emo/alternative rock crowd.

Actually Fuse has decent coverage in much of the country. It's in DirecTV's basic package, Dish Network's expanded basic package, and apparently the digital basic or one-step-up packages of nearly all the major cable companies in the country. So if you have digital cable or satellite, good chance you have Fuse. You may have just never had much of a reason to look for it until now. ;)

In fact, in the town where I work, Fuse is actually in cable company's the non-digital expanded basic package. So you may get it even if you don't have digital cable or satellite.

And props to Fuse for actually playing music videos at watchable times, and for giving decent pushes to a number of Tooth & Nail bands.

Same here which is probably why I have not heard of it before.Though not surprising considering the wide range of networks there are on Satellite and Cable these days there are certain to be a large amount of channels/networks that are probably relatively unknown to a large mass of people.

We have Fuse. It looks like it's suffering from MTV Syndrome. XD I hardly ever see any music programming on there.
