Because the rights to TV shows tend to be sold on a country-by-country

Along that line: back when I was living in Singapore I mentioned to
someone online that I keep forgetting to watch The Daily Show Global
Edition on CNN International. He seemed to be offended with my
attempts to claim that The Daily Show was airing on CNN, rather than
Comedy Central, and as much as I tried explaining it was a once-a-week
best-of compilation and on CNN *International*, which is like CNN
without the stupid parts and a British accent glazed on, he wasn't
pacified any and I think he still blames me for making such a claim.
