Talk:A&E (TV network)

message: A&E Network → A&E Television Networks – {"A&E Television Networks" is the proper name for the network} — Literaryfairy 03:01, Jun 2, 2005 (UTC)
* Strongly object.  A&E Network (maybe just A&E ?) or AETV is a TV network, whereas A&E Television Networks or AETN is the company to which it belongs, along with the History/Biography/Military channels.     –radiojon 02:57, 2005 Jun 4 (UTC)

I believe the request is to move A&E Network, and that this needs some discussion. -- Rick Block (talk) 14:14, Jun 2, 2005 (UTC)
:My bad--yes, my request is to move A&E Network (not A&E Networks) to A&E Television Networks. The s at the end was a typo. Although looking back at the entry for A&E Network, it seems that it could potentially be split & developed into two separate entries: (1) A&E Television Networks (the correct name of the company), and (2) A&E (the channel, which would include the list of shows) — Literaryfairy 00:17, Jun 3, 2005 (UTC)
I think the suggestion above is quite a sensible idea.  I'm not going to move anything for the moment as I'm hoping for more input.  When a decision is made do please feel free to come along to my talk page and I'll help in any way I can. violet/riga (t) 22:10, 8 Jun 2005 (UTC)

message: I can't find a reference, but didn't A&E start out as 'The English Channel'? before expaniding to it's pre-reality programming? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Pqdave (talk • contribs). 
:No.  The history as given in the article is correct...which is probably why you can't find a reference. Canonblack 23:35, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

message: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A&E_Network states (end of section 1 and beginning of section 2) - 
"The show Breakfast with the Arts, which still airs, once featured a higher quantity of classical music than it does now, and fewer interviews.
[edit]
Recent developments
Between 2003 and 2007, the channel gradually retired several long-running series, moving Murder, She Wrote and Agatha Christie's Poirot to The Biography Channel and cancelling Breakfast with the Arts, in favor of reality programming such as Dog The Bounty Hunter, Growing Up Gotti, Family Plots, Airline, Inked, King of Cars, and Criss Angel Mindfreak."
one place says "breakfast with the arts" still airs.   later cancellation is indicated.

message: I don't know if it deserves mention in the main article, but I did spend a while looking for the name of the song used in the new commerical. (I found it very touching, especially the two coreys part, and the Sopranos part)  
1st part. Not sure - (two men sitting in a truck 'Could u have faith in an ex-convict who talks to God?'
 
2nd part. Not sure -  (female swat member 'you got what it takes to confront America's most dangerous criminals?'
3rd part. Not sure - (male in a hoodie 'you got the courage to face the next world?'
4th part. Criss Angel from the show Mindfreak - 'Would you let me inside your mind?'
5th part. Gene Simmons from the show Family Jewels - 'I'm perfect, your not, can you handle that?'
6th part. Corey Feldman from the show The two Coreys - 'Would you stay together if all you had in common was the past?'
7th part. Tony Sirico from the show The Sopranos - 'Will you be there for me when I have to deal with a death in the family?'

message: Excuse me for asking a stupid question, but can somebody show me how to retrieve the "classic" A&E logo that the network used from 1995-2008? I've always loved that logo, and I've seen it on Logopedia...but I really would appreciate anybody telling me how to import that logo on Wikipedia. Thank you.

message: I have reverted the page back to an edit by 64.231.141.73 (talk) at 21:40, 26 February 2021. The current version of the article has too much unimportant trivia, a complete lack of cited source, and a non-neutral, negative bias towards the network's current programming. There should be no place on Wikipedia for TV Tropes / Miraheze level garbage. Thecleanerand (talk) 11:59, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
