[edit] Buddy Dean Show

According to the article for the Buddy Dean Show, Waters, as a teen, appeared as a dancer on the show. Is this correct? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Ghosts&empties (talk • contribs) 22:57, 27 July 2006.

[edit] Quotes

No quotes? I wanted to check if this was the guy who said: I want people to leave the theatre throwing up (or something like that). Added later: he did indeed say something like that. Fwend 21:51, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Rating

class=start|importance=high This important article needs a good rewrite for completeness and flow. Ghosts&empties 22:25, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Gay?

It doesn't mention anywhere that he is gay -I presume he is (is he?) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by user 141.168.109.63 (talk • contribs) 08:52, 23 August 2006.

You didn't mention that you are straight -I presume you are (are you?) Typhoid Orchid 20:02, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

Mr Waters is bisexual and he is quite open about it. His films are not just "trashy," they are queer. It doesn't get any more queer than JW.

thanks for clearing that up ... I was not sure how he identified ... --Kelt65 13:27, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fruitcake film?

The filmography lists a 2007 film called Fruitcake, but it isn't listed in IMDB and a quick check on Google didn't turn anything up. Is there any info about this, or should it be deleted? --24.84.39.132 05:02, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Then it looks like vandalism... Especially based on the fact that he's only credited as 'writer' and not 'director'. If this is real film (which I doubt) I'd like to see evidence of it from a reliable source before it makes its way into this article...Donwithnoname

[edit] Red links

This article included an excessive number of red links to very unnotable people and things; I've removed them. PAWiki 13:55, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
