I removed this addition because it simply isn't true, as Jeremiah (another Shotime production) also completed its second season run outside of the American market:
- It is the only US show in television history to have had its run completed in foreign markets without first doing so in the American market.

Let me see other shows where this happened. Space Above and Beyond, Firefly, Babylon 5, Battlestar Galactica season 1, Stargate frequently does it, Dark Skies, Jake 2.0, Jeremiah and those are just off the top of my head. It actually happens quite frequently, usually in the UK, due to other countries not usually having the mid season breaks and other countries usually running even cancelled series for their entire runs.

Thank you for the correction. It may have been true at the time (I had read it somewhere on a fan site back when Showtime cancelled in 2002 and everyone but Americans got to see the remaining 6 episodes right away), though as you note above, it has happened frequently as of late, especially for sci-fi shows (in addition to the above I just found out that CBS's cancelled Threshold did the same thing, I was going in to correct this after reading that when I saw your notes). Thanks again, this is why I think Wikipedia really does work and the critics are wrong hairymon 12:20, 31 March 2006 (UTC)
