yes yes yes I know that :P I can view the videos by pretending I'm american. That doesn't resolve my bitter disappointment with Nick for forsaking their foreign fans.

You know, I can't blame them. Nick Jr. get zero revenue from Canada, so why should they entertain us for free. Its just a business decision to reduce the load on their server and cut down on the bandwidth bill. Not that I dont enjoy Dora and her backpack, and the fact my daughter knows a few spanish words.

I went and checked it out (my daughter is a Dora fan too, lol) with my very-Canadian ISP and had no problems at all. Maybe they changed the settings to allow Canada, or removed the geotargeting? <added>Canadians do get NickJr on the satellite services, so they are making money off Canadians. Not to mention the licensing to Treehouse TV and the couple other stations that show Dora (as well as Blues Clues and other NickJr produced shows). And all the DVDs we buy too ;)</added>

>>Treehouse Thats true, I forgot Treehouse uses a lot of Nick Jr. programming. I was assuming that Dora was produced by a company other than Nick Jr.

Errrm ..far be it from me to intrude on a dispute between cousins ..but this New Mexico "state" site [state.nm.us] would be a scam then? And to return to the OP .. Dont know what Dora is ..but my son and I have n't been able to watch cow and chicken with the correct voices ..even via satellite since 5 years ..France banned the satellite transmission of "Sky" to "Us" ..so that a french TV company could sell what should be free programs ..cartoon network 24x7..and then they didn't bother using them ..more than 4 hours per day ..and then very badly translated

Heh. A lot of New Mexicans would proably be happy to be detached from the rest of the states. Sorry about Dora. But Canadians still have Zoboomafoo, so all is not lost! (Who can it be, this animal that I do see? Can you help me guess this mystery!)

Those Yankees are gerrymandering again. Noisy bloody neighbours. If they didn't get lost trying to find Alaska they'd never know Canada existed.
We enjoy Dora the Explorer, they need her.

>>That's Blue, not Zaboo. You are probably right, I think they play them back to back. The great thing about the little kid shows today, is that they are learning something while they watch. Never understood the anti-tv for kids crowd. The quality is so much better today. For example, that Dora show teaching problem solving and a little spanish.
