Heroes Episode 17 Next Sunday on Global

the last few episodes (eps 14 & 15) released by eztv were from global.

next sunday (sunday february 25th), heroes episode 17 (company man) is on
global at 9pm(8pm central).

i thought i'd just share that info for the release people.

cheers.

well if the last few eps released have been from global on a sunday, the
torrents have still all been released on the tuesday anyway. so unless now that
somebody has said something and they change, this has no effect on us
whatsoever. just means we know the canadians have seen it many many hours before
us ( as opposed to the four or five of americans ) :-p

what is global exactly?

global is a brodcast corporation, tv station from canada just like nbc, abc and
any other station. it is quite close to fox playing alot of the same shows.

gatefan you are confused, what he means that as a special case the tv station
global is airing the episode on sunday but it does normally air monday which is
th day its acutally released not tuesday. there has been some schedulaing
conflicts with global due to the fact that it also airs 24 and fox on monday. so
us canadians get to watch heroes a day early and hopefully the cappers will get
it early, which will also reduce the strain on eztv moveing some of the load to
sunday vs monday.

xander the cappers are definatly aware of the airing times so dont be concrened
just need to hope that there is a release group capping heroes within canada.

so most of the shows capped here in the 350mb version are from global?
and the hr and 720p versions are the normal us ones right?

global has hd so i dont think it makes a difference. we get the same tv quality
here as you do down south. im not sure why hd would be different in north america.

then why aren't the hr and 720p versions capped from global? why are they
capped from america?

i dont know if they are just capped from the us, ill check when i am at home.
the main reason would most likely be that the cappers in the us are just faster,
because it is a race, there is more us cappers then canadian cappers.

yeah but i have never seen a hr or 720p version from global before? do they
even do it?

also why do shows show first in canada and then in the us?

crazysah, it depends on the group releasing it. i seem to recall a hr release
by nbs for heroes that was from global.

there's quite a few good canadian cappers out there now (fast ones too), from
the likes of xor, notv, lol etc. i doubt they wouldn't be looking to cap such
a popular show. it's in the timeslot because the black donnellys is scheduled
to premiere on global 10pm monday, meaning 24 gets pushed forward and heroes
gets moved.

thanks for that.

are xor, notv, lol etc... canadian capping groups?
also do they have their own webpage?
what about 2hd... where are they from?

also if they are canadian... then what are the us capping group names?

they're groups of cappers. ie - a few people from all over us/canada, so some
capping groups have people from both the us and canada, and they don't have
their own webpages.

ahh ok then. do these groups only do tv-serials or other stuff that comes on
tv too?

this coming week is the first time global will air heroes on sunday. hence, all
the other global cap from the past few weeks is still released on monday night.
global is doing this because their monday night is now overcrowded with the
aforementioned 24 and prison break and the black donnelly's
