Is it safe yet to call MyNetworkTV a failure? DtownG 01:33, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
Clicking through some of pages for the individual shows shown on MyTV, they all appaear to be original soaps - if they're based on English translations of Spanish-language telenovelas, this isn't evident.. Unmake 02:45, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
The shows are not translated directly from the Spanish-language scripts; instead, the writers take the basic concept of the original show and create an entirely new series, including new scripts and storylines.
I'm new to the wiki for editing, but I was wondering if someone with more experience could create a template that would list the MNTV shows so the soaps pages would be easily linked together with some sort of uniform look to them. I'm still looking how to create something like this. Brian25j 03:27, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
I believe the new names for the as-yet unfilmed upcoming novelas are "Friends with Benefits" and "Rule of Deception." Yakuman
MyNetworkTV likes to rename its novelas. "Friends & Enemies" was retitled "Friends with Benefits" and "To Love & Die" was retitled "American Heiress." I have changed all entries to the new titles, although "Enemies" and "Love" now have orphaned articles. 75.212.209.75 07:43, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
More MyNetworkTV confusion: I tried to track down more details on "Roses" and discovered it was the same show as "Rule of Deception." "Roses" was a translation of the Spanish title, while "Deception" was the name that appeared in MY's publicity material. I've seen a rumor that Fox may try to revamp the unproduced novelas for daytime or cable, but I can't find any verifiable sources on that. Yakuman
Just when I thought I was done with this, I notice verifiable media references to "Rule" and "Rules" of Deception. Hence the confusion. Looking at MYNT's preseason announcement, it's "Rules." So we go with that. Argh! All of these shows have two names. I used a trade article [1] as my Rosetta Stone for these shows, at least in their original form. It let me down in one little area. Yakuman 03:39, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
Since MY is phasing out its telenovela format, I would like to spin off that part of this article. What we have here is getting pretty long and detailed -- and I think both topics would best be handled separately. Yakuman 21:32, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
And is there somewhere I can actually find the day-to-day MY ratings? Yakuman 05:46, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
Though this is pure conjecture, it is possible that MyNetwork TV has permanently removed its telenovelas from its line-up? Reviewing the TV guide from my Local newspaper (the Los Angeles Times), I have noticed that both Tuesdays and Wednesdays programming consisted of previously aired specials on Elton John's birthday concert, Anna Nicole Simpson, and Britney Spears.-- Kevin586 18:15, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
Image:MNTVHDIdent.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Is the current programming schedule out of date? Admittedly I do not all of its shows, The wednesday slot has now been filled by an hour of "Whacked Out Videos" and those entertainment specials showing how tricks done and how psyhics work.-- Kevin586 ( talk) 17:50, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

Have any of the MyNetworkTV O&Os (and affiliates), incluing WPWR-TV in Chicago, Illinois, made any plans to air reruns of Desperate Housewives yet? And when in the Fall of 2008 will they air? AdamDeanHall ( talk) 15:28, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
Why the hell is the channel listing not on this page. What channel is it on Dish Network, Direct TV and Comcast? Goblin Knight ( talk) 21:18, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
It should be interesting to see what happens to this article and many others, now that MyNetworkTV will soon no longer be a "network". Retro Agnostic ( talk) 04:07, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
I would like to have citiations for two claims:
The claim that MNTV has broadcast new episodes of the Twilight zone series. From what I have seen the current series are repeats from the UPN incarnation of the program.
Can anyone cite the general claims that MNTV has gained more viewers than the CW? I have little doubt they are true but still I would like see proof.-- Kencaesi ( talk) 23:06, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
I went through the entire article and Removed all instances of initial lowercase on the network name (though I'm sure I missed one or two). I did this in order to follow the Manual of Style, which states not to use unusual capitalization schemes, regardless of whatever branding the service provider or manufacturer uses, unless it it nearly universal (like classic exceptions eBay and iPod). A cursory glance of even this page's own sources shows that few other that Fox and others with ties to the network actually use the initial lowercase, and indeed the standard initial capital of proper nouns is most commonly used by third parties. Subsequently, we should too.
Now if only I knew how to do bots, then I wouldn't have had to do that manually. Argh. oknazevad ( talk) 06:36, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
The article states that MyNetwork has shifted from a network to a programming service, but doesn't really explain the distinction between the two. That needs to be added. JTRH ( talk) 14:10, 18 February 2011 (UTC)

The result of the move request was: Consensus not to move ( non-admin closure) — Andy W. ( talk · ctb) 23:10, 13 August 2016 (UTC)
MyNetworkTV → My Network TV – I feel like this will get a lot of opposes, but the reason I wanted to request this is because from the looks of the logo, it does not look like it is styled as one word. In press releases, they style their name as if it is one word, but from the looks of the logo and its pronunciation, it does not look that way. This case is similar to channels like SundanceTV and TeenNick. 67.87.222.82 ( talk) 12:08, 6 August 2016 (UTC)
OK, so according to the PDF cited in the article lede, the legal name is referred to as "Master Distribution Serivce, Inc.". However, according to the network's official site (mynetworktv.com), its legal name is referenced as "MyNetworkTV, Inc.". So, the question is, which is the legal name for MyNetworkTV? 2600:1700:C960:2270:D7B:51FB:8558:B6A6 ( talk) 08:42, 7 September 2019 (UTC)
