Talk:Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I've just added a paragraph (that is hopefully NPOV) regarding the amount of promotion and network support received by the show. Sadly, I can't figure out how to usefully cite this, because I don't know of anywhere I can find data on promos aired, etc., and can't find any credible articles which reference this. My source for this is watching Comedy Central myself and noting the difference in promotion between the two shows, and the cited blog entries. Other Tough Crowd fans have also noted this, but I can't really cite forum posts as fact. If anyone can provide any data to help back this up, that'd be great. --ndc 20:11, 30 December 2005 (UTC)
I've added NPOV because of the pro-bias towards the show. Comments like "But when the show was good, it was brilliant, and utterly unique" shows opinion. Saopaulo1 06:47, Apr 5, 2005 (UTC)
- I've removed a large text dump from an anon editor which was the source of most (all?) of the NPOV. Gamaliel 06:55, 5 Apr 2005 (UTC)

- gamaliel, you truly made a mistake. it is an analysis of basic facts of the network and subsequent shows, there is nothing POV in saying that Carlos Mencia is similar to Tough Crowd
I took the bit about what "Critics" said on the show. There is no reference given nor indication of who these "critics" were and where they said what was in that section.--GenkiDama 22:44, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
I'm removing the quote from Jim Norton because it's unsourced and has also been edited (if not just plain vandalized). Also, what's with the constant apparent claims that Tough Crowd was somehow "more controversial" or less conventional than other Comedy Central shows (e.g. Colbert Report)? I don't see any particular evidence of this, honestly. It seems like pure POV. --Soultaco 18:19, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
