[edit] Opinions in Encyclopedias
Encyclopedias should contain facts,not opinions. "Fuse, as of late, has become a shadow of its former self. It sucks, in other words. Honestly, even MTV2's better. When an MTV network is better than you, well, you're pretty pathetic. Sorry, Fuse, but you suck," should be removed, for it sounds as if a teenager wrote it.
[edit] Disambiguation
This dosn't show up on the disabiguation page for the world "fuse", i personaly would never have thought to look under "fuse channel", its never refered to as that. I olny found it via google.
- Currently, the "Fuse" disambiguation page lists "Fuse (television)" which redirects here. --SWalkerTTU 22:42, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Clean-up
Does this still need more clean-up? —SWalkerTTU 22:43, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Jumped the Shark
I have removed the term "Jump the Shark," as it refers to a television program, not a station or network.
[edit] VJ Taiwan Brown
Who is Brown? Hardcore fan or new vj?
His myspace His Domain ... when you find out if is a vj please remove the 'no black vjs' remark!

[edit] Fuse and Emo Music
A criticism has been written that Fuse has been very emo based lately. However, I would venture to say that Fuse is just rock/alternative/punk based in general compared to MTV which is more hip-hop/rap based. In rock music right now, emo is what is popular. Even more so, emo is hard to define itself, its more of a catch all term that refers to the current wave of post-punk, hardcore, and punk music with major scenes being in Chicago, Ohio, Jersey, and elsewhere.
I wouldnt say that fuse being emo focused is a bad thing. Maybe this should be included under format.
Also, somebody did write "emo sucks". Somebody should probably take that out.
[edit] Spelling of "fuse"
I just got a fuse newsletter today, in which every mention of the channel's name is shown as "fuse". Shouldn't we change this on the article page?
its is "fuse"
[edit] Channel X
The footnote for the Channel X fact simply links to Myspace, which takes you to the login screen.
Fuse also seems to have somewhat of an unofficial partenership with Chicago based Victory Records, and gives special attention/air-time to emerging acts from the Chicago emo scene.
THERE IS NO EMO SCENE It's called Pop-Rock-_-
[edit] List of shows..
This article needs a list of show & list of show that got canceled(like video IQ)
[edit] Pants Off Dance Off
I don't think PODO should be considered anexample of a non music realted show, considering all the dancing is done to music videos.
This page needs a lot of work especially the criticism section, I've fixed up as much as I knew how. DevelopmentArrested 00:05, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Rap City Non-Sequitur
Can someone clarify the section about MuchMusic USA/Rap City/"the last Canadian show" to be aired? Was there a reason for this? Did it perform poorly, was it complained about? It seems like a really weird segway. DaveWF 04:51, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Fuse (television).PNG
Image:Fuse (television).PNG 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 Wikipedia articles 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 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.BetacommandBot 11:09, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Technical issues
I deleted most of the technical lissues section becuase it is mostly irrelevent. I moved some of it into the citicism secction. However I have also noticed the sound compression problems to be true, one example would be Linkin Park's What I've Done video, which sounds terrible on fuse. However this all needs a source.

[edit] Music Stock Program
Fuse TV had a TV show that worked like a stock exchange only with artists and songs. It aired in 2003 and probably into 2004. I never participated in it, but I believe fans could win prizes with a certain number of points by acquiring popular artists and songs via the Internet. They would raise and lower in "value" much like stocks. This was a significant program on Fuse and quite unique, but I don't see information on it here. I can't remember the name of the show but probably would if I saw it. Cale (talk) 20:57, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
