I am one of the people that get the Action Channel and frequentley watch the anime that is shown on it. I wanted to get some feedback from some of you guys on the channel and the anime shown. I for one think that it shows some decent anime.
P.S. Has anyone that has the channel stayed up to watch the recently added Animidnight?

I think it's a great thing to have cable show uncut anime. Encore is trying to encourage anime and I think they are doing a ok job so far - however they need to pick up more variety of shows and stop showing Ghost in the Shell every other week. Since they began to broadcast anime they've always been showing GITS. Nothing wrong with it, it's a great movie, but it's beginning to be as annoying as EVA Music Videos.

Now if they were to pick up EVA, THAT would be worth watching. The only thing of interest this season is 3x3Eyes and X: The Movie. The others, Metropolis and Akira are overrated.

Aside from Encore Action - Showtime Beyond has Dirty Pair / Flash which I am finally getting to see. I don't know why I waited so long but at least it's free, well, sort of.

here is a list of anime that I have seen on the action channel

Akira
Princes mononoke
New dominion tank police
Shadow Skill
Tekken
Batle areana toshinden
Psycho diver
Bio Hunter
Blood reighn: Curse of the Yoma (I think it's actualyl called curse of the undead yoma, but thats what it ws titled on the channel.)
Ghost in the shell
Macross plus
Macross 2 (not sure.)
Birdy the mighty
Twilight of the dark master (the main character on this makes Alucard look like a bunny.)
And there are probably more, but I can't think of them off the top of my head.

They have anime on Encore? When did that happen and more importantly when is it usually on?
