Good news for all europeans

:wahah:
Swiss TV channel TSR 1 is going to broadcast the Astroboy series starting on 30. August.

TSR 1 Schedule

It is named as "Astro, le petit robot", thus it'll be in french language.
I can't hardly await to hear Astro's french voice .

I don't know for sure whether it's going to be the 03' or 80's version though, most likely the 03' version since I sent an email to TSR 1 a few months ago, and this is what they replied:



:wahah: B)

:huh: :wahah: I can't believe it :wacko:
But which is that channel? I'm afraid I don't receive it... I must check this out.

But I see they say "52 new adventures in color"... The 80s where already in color

Yes, but "52 new adventures in color", so I suppose it's gotta be the 03'version.
If it is going to be the 80's - I'd have no problem with that B) .

I would take it anyway
... if we received it I have just checked: we receive SWF3 that seems to be a Swiss channel, but no TSR is on sight
I know the last time they published it only once, I don't wanna miss my only occasion to see it live AND in French

Do you know anybody who can tape it for you? (Maybe per satellite dish)?

[fafner]

I'm afraid not... No one I know can receive this channel
I have even looked through all the channels we receive in the hope they just had omitted it in the official list (this is the case for some channels). Nothing

:wahah: It's definately the new version they're going to televise. I just had a look on their webpage TSR les zap. This site's all in french, but for those who don't understand it: You may translate it with google (crappy as hell though, but who cares ).

I really look forward to Astro's french voice, I sincerely hope it'll be A LOT better than the english puberty teenage dub.

[fafner]

Hopefully, they can't do worse
Or maybe a male version of Marge Simpson's voice :huh:
Damn! :wacko: hope I haven't given them bad ideas

Just this morning while watching the TV I saw a preview of a new emission for the next week, and in it I saw fewer than 1/2 second ( oh wait... less than 1/2 second ) that came from the opening sequence of Astroboy of the 2000s
I just checked on the TV schedule, it will go each wednesday morning on France 3. Unfortunately it will be at an hour when I am already out for work Well at least I will have the opportunity to record it

[Strange Wings]

:wahah:
I checked the France 3 schedule too. You're right! It starts on wednesday morning in a programme called 'France Truc', somewhere between 7:00 to 10:20.

Some french TVstations finally catching on, it was about bl***y time!
