    weekly TV show to be cancelled

    Nippon TV announced that it will cancel the weekly TV show of Pro-Wrestling NOAH after the end of March, 2009.

    NTV, which opened in 1953, aired puroresu for 55 years: JWA 1954-73, All Japan 1973-2000, and NOAH 2001-present.

    There is a talk of NTV's satellite channel continuing the show.

    Let's hope New Japan won't lose its TV Asahi spot...

    Yes, TV Asahi is the only national network to air puroresu weekly. The termination of the weekly program on NTV has been confirmed. The program through the NTV's paid channel will continue.

    Jahno.

    Was this the half hour show?
    What time did the current show air and has it already changed channels?

    Yes, it was the 30min show. I believe they'll cancel the free channel show at the end of the month. They are not "changing" the channel as they have already been airing on the paid channel.

    Jahno.
