tom64ss Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 (edited) edit: oops, sorry. Action is one of the Encore channels. I was flipping through the channels, and found Macross II being shown on Action (Sunday 5:20-7:40 PM EST). Never seen that before. Not a huge fan of the story but the mecha's cool and it's nice to see Macross w/ the "Macross" name on TV. Anyone else see this?

Greyryder Posted April 12, 2004 Share Posted April 12, 2004 Thanks for the heads up. I'm catching the end of it, now. It's supposed to be on Animidnight, either this coming Friday, or the next. They'll also be playing Macross Plus on another friday. Yes, it's nice to Macross on TV, instead of that other show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Effect Posted April 12, 2004 Share Posted April 12, 2004 (edited) I missed the showing on the East Action channel, its coming on again on the west version. ITs the dubbed version though, wish it was the subbed but its great to have Macross aired on cable. Starz Action has shown a lotof anime. Fist of the North Star, Armitage, X, Akira, Ghost in the Shell, Cowboy Bebop the Movieand now Macross II(saying the name corrently and saying Zentreadi the right way as well) and Plus. Sweetness. One of the showtime channels, the Beyond one plays GTO and showed Patlabor II the other night. Edited April 12, 2004 by Effect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lightning Posted April 12, 2004 Share Posted April 12, 2004 yea, i agree with u guys, it is nice to see the word "macross" on an actual macross product. i caught the back half of the show. Action channel also shows Macross Plus from time to time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radd Posted April 12, 2004 Share Posted April 12, 2004 Yeah, they show it every so often. They also tend to show Tekkaman Blade II. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Shade Posted April 12, 2004 Share Posted April 12, 2004 A couple of weekends ago, they were showing New Dominion Tank Police. It was the first time I saw it. Wasn't bad, too bad they're only 6 eps that were made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treatment Posted April 12, 2004 Share Posted April 12, 2004 They've been doing that since '01/'02, iirc. As such, iirc, they were showing the painful dub-version of M-II back in '01/'02. Unless they changed and now showing the subs-version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smiley424 Posted April 13, 2004 Share Posted April 13, 2004 Yeah, I have Dish Network and every once in a while they give us a free preview of the different premium channels they have. I caught Macross II on the Action Channel once during the free preview weekends. Definately cool to see Macross on TV. It was the subbed version I saw. Definately something lacking storywise, but the mecha and ships are pretty cool IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
