Tried it and I got, "Sorry Canada - Coming Soon."
Yeah, right.
I tried the online thing with one other show - "Available in the U.S. Only."
Don't we count as an audience???

You do indeed, and if it were up to me, I'd let you have full access.

I think the reason a beta-level web site starts out only available to US customers is because the site owners want to make sure the dumb people can use it first. Once they get to that point, they know the smarter people up north are sure to have no problems.

This is US, trying to put our best face forward on the global stage, y'unnerstand. We don't like sketchy, half-thought-out things and making it up as we go along.
