Default Blue Planet on Discovery channel

Glad to hear it Trig ;) As for the programming being very similar, I know ... I can't put my finger on it but I just find the Canadian channel to be a bit more .... well, Canadian. (And I mean that in a good way!)

I think, though, that maybe a part of why I like ours better is that the U.S. has had Animal Planet longer than we have had it; and more of the shows that are more my cup of tea are on Animal Planet down there instead; whereas they are still on Discovery up here. Now that we have Animal Planet though, I don't know if the same will happen up here. I think I pay my cable company too much as it is, I'm not ready to make that leap to digital cable just yet. Dang, why does everything cost more and more and more these days? No fair!!!

PS. I WAS serious with my suggestion that we email Discovery.ca and ask them to air Blue Planet again. Why not? It can't hurt -- and maybe they'll listen! :D
