Oh we can be blocked from promos from the official Facebook pages, I guess if they come directly from the US site. It doesn't make sense to me though as they sell the rights to the show to be broadcast at a simultaneous time up here. The Canadian channels have essentially built their business model around that thanks to sim-subbing. (Simultaneous-Substitution).
What that means is television providers have to take us off the American signal to show us Canadian ads, even if we select an American feed. So if I watch CTV at 8 PM I can see The Flash and SHIELD on the same channel. But even if I pick the ABC feed I see Canadian commercials. So while the US sees a promo for next week's SHIELD episode or the Avengers lifting Thor's hammer, I usually see a promo for Masterchef of The Voice or something else airing on the CTV feed. Sometimes the Canadian channel airs the same promo or even one with slightly different footage, but its usually annoying. Luckily they go online fast. It doesn't always switch on time and we get a share of American attack ads during election time. If I wanted too, I could watch nothing but American news channels all day, but still get Canadian ads.
Although average Canadians got a bit of a victory. After years of complaining we can't see Superbowl ads and sometimes miss vital parts of a play because of sim-subbing, starting in 2017 the Canadian networks won't be allowed to sim-sub the Superbowl.
But for online promos, I really don't see the benefit of blocking us. It just causes irritation to some fans of your shows that watch them exactly when you do.

Certain things make sense, like directing *old* clips from The Daily Show to the Comedy Network website up here as we don't have Comedy Central. But not when new things are posted to hype up a show. There is no time delay so its feels like they are trying to discourage us from getting involved in a show.

I know it is complicated but in most instances the studio and the network operate like totally separate businesses and fans should try to understand the dynamics before throwing stones. Most of the time when something isn't available outside the US it is the fault of the local distributor/network and not the originating source of the media. So the ire should be directed locally and not at the US company.

IrrationaliTV: What do you think Agent Carter's chances for another mini-renewal are?

whatever the outcome on AC. If they want to do one of 8 episodes again I would think it more likely that it will come back.

were a 22 episode season. Assuming of course its made available through the normal post broadcast distributors (dvd, netflix, et al).

Though really looking forward for her "Willow / Echo" arc of getting really proficient with her powers.
