Non-notable television show created as part of one editor's self-promotion (see: Lewismash ( talk · contribs) & Lewis Marklin Mash). The cited references don't help to establish notability as they're self-referential or apparently broken; Variety Magazine is cited but only the homepage is linked and ADHDtv fails to turn up anything internally. I haven't been able to locate proper external sourcing to indicate notability. This press release claims that "The show competed for a regional Emmy, but was edged out by more traditional, mainstream shows" but the only details I can find about this are from user-created IMDB content claiming two 2008 nomination in the "Southwest" region...this may refer to the region known as Pacific Southwest but, the actual list of nominations doesn't include anything relating to this show. tvguide.com hosts a few videos but they have no discussion of the content. I just don't think this passes WP:NOTE. — Scien tizzle 15:47, 8 March 2011 (UTC) reply
You are incorrect sir. The show started on Public access tv, was syndicated to 50 US cities and now ranks higher than half of the network shows on iMDB. The show is the first cable access show to compete for an Emmy. It is world famous. Just because you have not watched the show, does not mean that it is not note worthy to those who want the facts about the show and its creator. This is a pertinent piece of American Television history, when a public domain TV series competed with network produced shows. This is not self promotion. There is nothing on this page that promotes any person or product. This is history and facts, that a member of the general public should have access to. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.20.56.147 ( talk • contribs) 00:19, March 9, 2011 (UTC)
The show aired nationally for 2 years, there are fans around the world who watch it on tv and now via the internet, however, finding articles is not that easy. There have been some articles, but most of them are either gone or hard to find because the show was not created by a major network. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lewismash ( talk • contribs)

I am simply listing a television show on wikipedia that existed and aired throughout the country. [personal attack redacted] — Scien tizzle 16:35, 11 March 2011 (UTC) Anyone can criticize an article, pick it apart, or make fun of someone's attempt to record information in a new forum, but a true gentlemen and scholar attempts to remedy a problem rather than just tear it down, as this guy did in his rude wording. The show includes some very notable people. All of the actors have been on various television shows and movies. Alexa Demara is a recognized model, Melissa Evans was one of the 8 fired news press writers who were fired in 2007, which made national headlines, prompted 2 years of debates across college campuses, and prompted the documentary film "Citizen McCaw, as was John Zant (one of the 8 reporters). It is ludicrous to say that I am somehow self promoting a project that is no longer on the air, however, it is quite relevant to actual people, who look up this information, for reports, articles and reference to television, private syndication and public access history to either report on the careers of the people who started their acting careers on the show, or to report on the show in reference to other shows with similar goals, as a precedent reference. This wikipedia article accomplishes the "dubious" task of putting all of the info in one place, to make it easier for those people to get whatever info there is, in one place, rather than have to sort through about 100 or so links on google, yahoo, or wherever else. It is up to you guys if you want to help me list what is listable, or just delete the profile. It is out of my hands. What I will tell you, is that the group attended the Pacific Southwest Emmy's in 2008, by invite and competed for 2 Emmy's. The contact person for the chapter is Liz Korda. Throughout the country, there are chapters with more public broadcast categories and some Emmy chapters are even recognizing web broadcast pieces, but the Pacific Southwest Chapter is a very competitive chapter, that does not usually have too much outside of broadcast news, so this show was a very rare entry. The entire cast attended the award gala. I do not know where to find info that supports. So, if that is an issue, then remove that portion, but everything else on this page is relevant. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.21.1.14 ( talk) 13:36, 11 March 2011 (UTC) reply
