   This has happend with Buffy and Angel also. We got the eps a few day behind.   
   It's now happening with The Simpsons. We're on a 1 week delay with them. The   
   UK has had some first run episodes before. The following have all aired in   
   the UK before the USA as far I know -   
      
   StarGate SG1 (might happen again in a few weeks)   
   Sliders   
   BattleStar Galactica (UK gets World Premiere)   
   Pokemon   
   Sonic X (I think Season 2 aired on FK before Fox Box)
