-> I have no idea how you could run the show for free and also run
->commercials on it.
That's standard procedure, Pete — it's called a barter agreement. They
get the commercial airtime on your station in exchange for giving you the
rights to air their show for free. Remember it's "you" that wants the show,
and normally you'd have to pay to run it. The way they're handling it, no
cash has to exchange hands. Remember, they're already putting all the bucks
into producing the thing so it'll be an attractive package and it'll bring
in viewership for your station.
I realize community access cable doesn't have commercials, so that
leaves your system out unless you guys work out a way to pay for the rights
to the show. 🙂
