Why pay for content when people pay you. I do not know how much this is true.

I do know that the wrong anime content can have a very bad affect on anime. When CN aired Shin-chan at 11pm, many of my customers told me that they had banned all of the anime block for their kids. For highschool & teen audiances, this could have had a very bad ratings hit. I do not know the numbers though. CN’s anime block hits the time period you talk about but only on Saturdays. I was told that they are interested in their own lower quality productions, flash style, than anime. This is another issue.

Sci-fi channel has picked up anime at 11pm on Monday’s.

Starz Action has dropped most anime shows though, very sad. They had a lot of movies & ran VanDread for a couple years.

Showtime seems to have dropped their anime shows. At one time they ran several show, Reign was one of them.

Ratings. Money. They’re all very related, unfortunately.

In Japan, at least the episodes are premiering at those timeslots.
