Recent rumors weather SatAM have been airing in Michigan have now been clarified. I contacted FOX33 and heres what they had to say.
"Richard,
Thanks for your email. Nice to know we've been noticed all the way out in California. The Sonic we air is Sonic Underground and just started airing on this station 12/8.
Thanks for asking.

Oh well, at least its Sonic so that somewhat cool.
ELSPA, the Entertainment and Leisure Software Publishers Association, and ComputerAndVideogames.com, the UK’s leading multi-format video games website, today published the results of a unique poll seeking to find the most popular 30 games of the last 30 years.
The top five games voted most popular by the public are: Sonic the Hedgehog, Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Pac-Man, Tomb Raider and Space Invaders.

It has been announced today via the Associated Press that Sammy will buy a 22.4% stake in Sega, although the reasons behind this decision have not been explained.
Recent talks between the two companies over a merger fell through earlier in the year, as did talks with Namco. Now, Sammy will be required to spend $419 million on purchasing the 22.4% share of Sega.
Financial commentators are already expecting Sammy to launch a takeover bid once their share reaches the required 33%.

Please! Tell me why my sonic advance 2 chao garden doesn't properly connect to SA2B so I can't move my super powerful chao over so I can race 'im.
To my suprise today while at the local Best Buy they have a stack of soming attraction DVD's that come free with any Music, Game, or Movie purchase. This DVD has trailer for all types of games and music and movies. Among them is a high quality DVD trailer for Sonic Heroes showing off all the teams and some gameplay. I can make a DVD RIP later.
Sonic battle is now avaliable in Japan.

Seems Chaos in getting in on the action as well, and he also seems to have the ability to melt into a puddle of water. Who knows what other Sonic characters are going to be added next?
If you have digital cable network G4: TV for Gamers then on Thursday, December 11th you can catch a special dedicated to Sonic Team and Yuji Naka.
I didn't catch the times though. Check www.g4tv.com for local listings.
I was browsing TV Guide's website, and when I searched for Sonic the Hedgehog, I was shocked to find Sonic the Hedgehog (SatAM) airing at 7AM (EST) this coming Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday on WFQX (for Dish Network users. Not sure exactly what channel it is)! I also found Sonic Underground is starting Monday, to air every day on WB at 8:30AM (EST)! Seems weird, the shows just popping up like that...
Additional notes: WFQX is Fox 33 in Michigan. No idea (yet) if SatAM is on anywhere else. Check for the DiC Entertainment block, which is on various stations--usually a WB or UPN station--to find out when SU comes on (if it does come on) in your area.
