It's wrong to characterise this as "Americans get to see The Aztecs for the first time". It's not the American debut. It's not the North American network debut. It's not the first time available in NTSC format so that it could be viewed in America.

It's a rerun with some hype surrounding it, designed to get you to watch it. That's all.
