[edit] Shows

Is there a list of where they have all the shows they will be showing. Because after looking on FIVE US website, there isn't anything about Joey being shown, or the first series of CSI Samaster1991 18:39, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

Schedule information that has been released includes these programmes. - Lee Stanley 21:58, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wrestling section

I removed the wrestling section [1] from the article. A check on Google only finds forums which has fans making requests for FiveUS to show wrestling. Once a reliable source can be found for these claims Note: Forums are not reliable sources, then the section can be put back into the article. --tgheretford (talk) 20:27, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

Agreed. But unfortunately the page is now constantly being vandalisd by those on said forums. Ezenden 20:31, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
I added a template to that section now for fear I violate WP:3RR. I'll see how it goes and request Semi-protection if the need arises. --tgheretford (talk) 20:33, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
It hasn't stopped, I have now requested page protection for the article. --tgheretford (talk) 20:49, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] THe Great Big British Quiz

I think Five US shows Quiz Call now, not The Great Big British Quiz. Manm hk 20:38, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

Yes it does now. AxG (talk) (guest book) 20:45, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Free to View

Five US is 'Free to View', not 'Free to Air'. It is encrypted on satellite and requires subscription equipment to veiw it, although it is not part of a subscription package. I have amended the text accordingly.

I'm not going to change it back yet, but surely as Five US is available FTA (on DTT), that's what it should be called?--Victim Of Fate 10:29, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hmm... Scheduel grid has been deleted

Why has the schedule grid being deleted? Yes, I know Wikipedia is not a TV Guide, but a lot, no, all of the main US channels have one! And there's a few pages known as:

And many more (they go back to the '40s!) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tomm3 (talkcontribs) 16:31, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

This is quite a wide-ranging and sometimes controversial topic which has been discussed before at Wikipedia talk:What Wikipedia is not (read through the archives before starting a new topic). --tgheretford (talk) 18:34, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
