Something that I've always had in the back of my mind but never bothered asking: is it 100% confirmed that USA skipped his episodes?
I ask because when I saw my first glimpse of an EOTVGS 20+ years ago, I remember thinking "oh, I thought his name was Blake EVANS."
I distinctly remember seeing him between Edwards' episodes. Never been to Canada, so unless I've got some sort of clairvoyance power, I'm fairly certain that USA had to have aired some of them!
Maybe they were aired during a production break?
