Surprisingly, this television show gets 0 google hits, other than two wikipedia ones. That's low even by public-access standards. See Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Rhyanne Wheat for one of the hosts. —Xezbeth 19:12, Jun 4, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete Some of this doesn't even make sense, e.g. it's called a Comedy Hour and is "a comedy-themed talk show" but the article says it has a "serious tone"?!? What the heck? Even if we're assuming this serious comedy show exists, a public-access show would have to be really notable to get an article on its own. With no Google hits and only 6 episodes over its month-long run, this one just doesn't have what it takes. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 19:27, Jun 4, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete unless proof of the show can be found. Its a decent article(despite being contradictory) but there is nothing on it at all. Even local shows usually have a google hit or 2. Falphin 19:31, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)

- Allow The show actually did exist and I watched it several times (5) when it aired earlier this year. It was a live call-in show and I did call in several times. Though it was called a comedy hour the hosts (David and Rhyanne) did reserve time for the serious dicussion of the topics they were ridiculing during their episode, which did include abortion (they had some whack-o pro-life nut on) and suicide (it just happened to be some angsty kid for this one). Rhyanne did go on to be part of several other local shows as a guest for months following and another season of the show is alloted for next season's line up according to Comcast. They hosts (David and Rhyanne) tried several times during the season to get big name politicians from the area on such as (Gov.) Mayor Wilder. It would be good to see an article like this to remain on Wikipedia for it makes the site feel like a place where one can go to find knowledge even on one's own community.

- Delete. No verifiable information even after on VfD for 5 days. The included link to a cable TV company has no mention of this show on its website. Doubtful notability even if verified anyway. Quale 16:03, 9 Jun 2005 (UTC)
