That is great news Jasper. Too bad we can't watch it in the States.

Lexie, I feel confident there will be ways to view it online. I hope someone posts when it stars, then I'll be looking for it. Feel free to check in with me then via PM and I'll let you know if/where I found it!

Thanks Lurk. I know our Canadian friends have mentioned in other threads that they can't view US shows online via the various networks, i.e. CBS, etc.

It is a Food Network show though, so you never know they may show it on the US version of Food. And you are right, anything that is not available on a Cdn network we can't view on the US websites. UK as well I have found.

Oh I hope so, Jasper. The US version of HGTV carries quite a few shows out of Canada so maybe we'll get lucky and our Food Network will carry your Top Chef.

Top Chef is a Bravo show in the States - is it Food Network in Canada?

If you know where to look, and don't mind not viewing via 'official" websites, you can watch just about all shows easily. It's how I feel in love with the UK Apprentice. Plus many shows also make their way to YouTube. Some stay, some get pulled. It varies. Most of the international Project Runway's last.

Bottom line just so no one is confused by the multitude of posts saying it's not possible to watch in the US---it IS! You just have to know where to look. And most work fine no matter what country you are in (so those in CA or the UK can see US programs). Also I've read if you change your computer clock to the match another country you can view their official sites (and that is how they know you are not local). I've never tried it since I never had any problems finding the shows I wanted to see, but kept it in memory should it ever happen LOL. I've been trying to not jump into a big discussion of this, but must correct the erroneous info posted here.

BTW I can't fathom Bravo would allow the Food Network to air a show that bears the name of one of theirs. Is there a Bravo network in CA??

No it is a Food Network show. http://www.foodnetwork.ca/
This what airs Top Chef US here as well. I am in the same time zone as the US so changing my clock wouldn't help. I have never been able to view programs online on a UK or US websites for the specific networks, the "official" sites.

Oh and I really liked UK Apprentice and Sir Alan Sugar as well, it aired on our Showcase station and MSNBC.

Interesting - I never realized that the same show would use different networks in different countries. Thank goodness for technology. :-)

Jasper, that's interesting. I had no clue the UK Apprentice every made it to mainstream TV, since most friends of mine never knew there was a UK one until I told them about it.

As for the time zone settings, like I said I've never tried it myself. It was just a tip I read online. If I recall right it was specifically referring to viewing UK shows. Interesting timing to read this as I had just Googled to try to find out if they ever set an air date for the UK Apprentice and even as I read your post I had a video of now Lord Sugar playing in the background! But I'm getting off topic sorry!

I hope I'm wrong, but I'm thinking the odds are slim now of this show making it on US TV, given the different cable channels. Unless I'm wrong, which does happen at least a couple times a decade LOL, those 2 networks aren't affiliated. I just did a fast Google and darned if I could find a fast answer lol. Common sense would say there's some relation, but I haven't seen a lot of common sense in regards to TV programming and management lately so who knows LOL.
