I was wondering who was funding the show since it didn't seemed to be targeted at potential viewers... It seems to be part of a "channel" designed to promote South Korea worldwide.
They really should promote it more, especially since Tasteless who is now a esports celeb of sorts is casting. After all, they are paying him to do the job! They might as well get some more views.

The Korean site very likely just doesn't know about TL. Because they pay Tasteless and surely would like to get more viewers and if they knew TL they would come here because that would have certaily ensured them thousands of additional views for every show and probably also a 4-digit number of new members for their site. But Tasteless knows TL. So why doesn't he want us to know? What is going on there behind the scenes?
Also: Total, complete and unexcusable Fail by us. How did this go unnoticed? Why did no one know about the show? Why didn't those few who knew the show notice that there wasn't a thread on this on TL? We are hungry man. We are fucking hungry and now you tell us "oh I thought you'd knew about that hidden pantry full of awesome free food. And btw they will close it soon because no one else is eating from it." ???

The strange thing is I don't even remember him promoting the SC2 casting with Jason Lee, correct me if I*m wrong please.

This is just the impression I got from watching the show.
He kept on saying things like: "Back in Star 1 players used to"... I mean wut. You're casting it right now what do you mean back in? Things like that just annoyed me a ton, I got the impression that he wanted to give the impression that BW was outdated.
I apologize if that was the incorrect impression.
This forum right here, http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/index.php?show_part=6 is the largest Starcraft/esports forum in the English speaking community. Not letting us know about this and then saying 'not enough interest' is unconscionable.
On the other Hand, since the games that they're casting are so old, could there possibly be any interest in casting foreigner tournaments? There are some really awesome games in the tournaments section here and it would be really cool to see Tasteless cast them.

So Tasteless and Jason Lee have been casting BW for 4 years and we didn't know about it ? FUUUUUUUU

there might be an issue with casting some games because broadcasting rights. i wish they could get access to casting them though

Jason doesn't talk fast enough also monotone.

This whole thing is very curious... casting BW for past 4 years... and not telling anyone?
|
No gg from much ;; Everybody seems to say its old, and thats true. But what tourney is this replay from anyways? if their source of bw replays came from old Gomtv classic tourneys, I dun expect much more casts like these.

I just dont have an explanation for why Tasteless was not posting this on TL. I just dont have one. Not even an idea. Something is wrong with this.

Tbh i suspect some sort of foul play was going on =_=.

I think it was Artosis who said this about tasteless in regards to SC2, that he just can't stand readings whats posted in the forums.

Probably something with the company who pays him on one or both sides doesn't want him promoting the other. I did notice him mention a few times in the first 3 GSLs (before code S) that he was doing some "voice work on the side." But he made it sound like he was an English voice actor, not a caster. I guess that could have been a heads up, if you want to know what Tasteless is up to then you deserved to know about this broadcast I suppose, but you would have to do the legwork to find out after he hinted that we should look for more content from him.
Anyway, if these aren't just old GOMTV Classic vods then I'll be on cloud 9 because I'm sure there's 4 years of potential viewing pleasure to be had!

Before I knew anything about TL, this is where I used to watch VODs. A few years ago they showed it on Thursdays and Fridays. When SC2 showed up, they moved BW to Wednesday (previously the slot for WC3 games) with SC2 taking up BW's slot.
I thought this is common knowledge here too...
If memory serves right, it was Jason Lee and a host of other commentators who casted not Tasteless.
