SO ... what about everyone else? Where and when can you see J-POP on TV in your area?

In the New York area, Pop Japan TV is shown on Time Warner Cable and Cablevision channel 73 on Fridays at 9: 30. It is preceded by an everchanging J-Dorama, and is followed by the Mandarin news.

And that's all NY's got.

Unless you could order TV Japan from IO or Time Warner's digital, then you get Pop Japan TV, as well as HEY!x3. Unfortunately I am deprived of this channel.

Yeah I get PopJapanTV too. But I have Direct TV so it comes on channel 26 I think. And I see Hey Hey Hey! on that channel. They show Jpop artists, and they recap sometimes. Once I saw Utada on there. It was cool. I want to get that Azn channel, my frined has it. They show alot of Jpop I think.

that's cool alothugh utada is the way to go

where i live sucks i get no japanese channels i only get CCTV and thats chinese LOL

I don't get any Japanese channels here either
Clostest I can get to it is IMF which plays foreign music videos. I've only seen one person from Japan and thats AI.
