[edit] Adult Central, On The Block, Lime Rock Limits, Bi the Bi, Recent Venues, and River Days

Possible hoax. Author of these articles claims that this is a soon to be airing television network and the first shows to be aired on the network. A Google search for the network and shows finds nothing to corroborate these claims([1], [2], [3]).Delete as per WP:V unless reliable sources are provided to verify the claims made in these articles. --Allen3 talk 23:30, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

  • A network having 10 seasons of a show planned before they even run the first episode? Now that's comical. Not even an intelligent hoax. Delete. Fightindaman 23:50, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete all. --Jeffrey O. Gustafson - Shazaam! - <*> 00:09, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

Do Not delete..true network..promise..proff on TV.com —The preceding unsigned comment was added by MCcoupe7 (talk • contribs) .

Comment: The search function at TV.com does not appear to find any of the information you claim is there.[4] --Allen3 talk 00:42, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

you sure? a distant cousin from mine is producing the show On The Block..and he told me about the "Adult Central". he told me about those three other shows and the dates for the on the block episodes= i know its in advanced like those dates i mean but he told me them —The preceding unsigned comment was added by MCcoupe7 (talk • contribs) .

  • Comment: Thank you for your contribution to Wikipedia. Unfortunately, your distant cousin is not a primary source. This renders this article unverifiable, and probable original research. Don't let this stop you from continuing to contribute verifiable content though! — Adrian Lamo ·· 00:59, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

why cant u keep it though if he is a producer of this show and station —The preceding unsigned comment was added by MCcoupe7 (talk • contribs) .

  • Comment: As Adrian said, we can't keep it because nobody else can verify this information. We cannot build an encyclopedia on hearsay and rumor. Also, could you please sign your posts by typing ~~~~? Thanks. Fightindaman 01:27, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
    • Comment:Another thing, it's funny how if you go back in the history for On The Block the article first stated that it was going to be on "The Tween Station." Moving from a station for children to one for porn is a bit odd don't you think? Fightindaman 01:41, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

yes i can see how u can think that, but the show and station was first created for tweens and teens. The network then decided to make the show into more the porn direction and the station as well. At this still the other shows havent been produced (that is why they changed the station) MCcoupe7

  • It's my understanding that new television networks tend to get their name out to the public by sending out press releases and getting coverage in major industry publications. In fact, we just saw that happen in the last two weeks with My Network TV. This is considered a more reliable method of publicity than having a show producer tell his distant cousin about the network's existence by word of mouth, with no other news coverage. Delete as unverifiable. --Metropolitan90 02:16, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete all, per unverifiable, almost certainly a hoax. - Rynne 02:52, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete all per nom as hoax. -- Krash (Talk) 03:06, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
