List of Playboy Channel Series?[edit]

This article needs a list of Playboy Channel series. Sex Court and Playboy's Dark Justice are the only two that come to mind right now.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 4.254.112.19 (talk) 04:36, 17 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Censoring[edit]

Who watches censored hardcore movies really? If you don't like hardcore movies, you wan't watch a censored one either. And if you're into hardcore movies, you rent a movie were you actually can see the action.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.112.157.171 (talk) 03:07, 2 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

People in countries where hardcore is illegal? And to that effect, I have removed all references to the UK and Ireland from this article. There is no way a British broadcaster would be allowed to shown hardcore pornography. I would suspect this is also the case for many other countries mentioned in the article, e.g. Norway. This article appears to refer to the US American version. 109.176.200.153 (talk) 17:38, 24 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

When did the changeover happen?[edit]

I subscribed to Playboy TV about 5 years ago and at the time it was completely soft core -- no hardcore footage was ever shown on the network. I only recently learned that the network now shows hardcore. I think it should be noted in the article when this changeover occurred. 23skidoo 23:27, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It probably happened gradually, so there'd be no date.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.105.197.16 (talk) 16:53, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Profitability[edit]

How does this channel stay in business? It used be a monthly subscription channel now it's $10.95 for a four hour block. The Videobox website offers over 1,400+ vids for $14.95 a month, which are DVD resolution that you can download and own. This channel is a ridiculous dinosaur in the modern era of porn.

Change in format[edit]

Playboy TV now has shows which air 10 or 15 minute segments. Some full length shows are split with other segments in between like commercial breaksAlso, many of the shows mentioned in the article are no longer shown.

Playboy TV[edit]

Where is a Playboy TV live stream? --Iluvwiki1 (talk) 03:57, 6 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The Original Playboy Channel[edit]

When the Playboy Channel first started in 1982, it tried to directly duplicate the magazine. There was a centerfold, an interview, jokes, a Playboy adviser, fiction, pictorials, and comedy that tried to duplicate the cartoons. It only lasted a year before they switched to a more soft-core all the time format.

The only reason I know this is because I was the Playboy Adviser and an actor in many of the skits. I know I can't use myself as a source but I can't find this information anywhere else. So I'm sticking it here.
