I think this is true. Ghibli films are treated as Pixar films (great, but for kids) and most other shows are treated with a kind of cautious feelings because of unfamiliarity. Some things have older fans because they grew up with it, but they tend to ignore a lot of the new stuff. Doesn't help that 90% of anime airs well after midnight.

I do not know about television.  I will say in the age of internet you can access things on your own schedule.  Crunchy Roll is a good site as well as various localization ones (Funimation, etc.).  

I'm not quite sure how this all related to what I was saying. I obviously like anime, and know how to obtain whatever I'm looking for.

You stated 90% of anime airs after midnight that create a perception.  I was countering that internet age has no schedule of when things are on.  From my experience more and more people are abandoning traditional cable/satellite model for internet and services like Netflix and/or Hulu.

I posting that from a Japanese point of view, because he was talking about how this was ok there and not here. I was saying it's largely looked upon the same way.

Also, most Americans (and anime fans) know very little if anything about air times, popularity, etc.

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,

To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."
