Talk:Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve

(Midwest airing)
I believe the Central time zone airs live along with the Eastern time zone. --PsychoJason 07:44, 1 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Yes, Central time zone airs live. SNIyer12 20:46, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

ABC 2000 Today
In 1999, ABC 2000 Today, ABC News's coverage of the millennium, canceled the special. SNIyer12 16:24, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

Celebrations elsewhere
You might want to add information about the celebrations outside of Times Square that are shown on New Year's Rockin' Eve. All the other channels that broadcast New Year's celebrations do as well. -- SNIyer12 20:11, 13 March 2006 (UTC)

Miley Cyrus/Jonas brothers
There is a bit in here in the 2008 section regarding miley cyrus "hogging the stage" from the jonas brothers because she broke up with one of them. This just seems like childish, immature gossip and I don't think it's noteworthy for this article. 99.237.9.80 (talk) 22:13, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

certainly not... furthermore, the fact that ABC whored out these kid-brainwashers for an entire show primarily for adults is even more out-of-place.

missing years
why are we missing 2003 ND 2004. iT SEEMS so strange. Also is ABC perhaps pissed off about airing idol contestants since it could be argued that they boost fox ratings and lower ABC's ratings. It seems like Fox has very low ratings for new year celebration (compared to big dog ABC and NBC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.32.31.254 (talk) 07:15, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

2010 error
As much as Dick Clark screwed up the count, he DID NOT say happy dew year. I have re-listened 10x times from a high quality link and still say he said it normally.

Pre-GAN review question
https://www.google.ca/search?q=dick+clark%27s+new+year%27s+rockin%27+eve&hl=en&safe=off&biw=1440&bih=809&sa=X&ei=lQ7RUP2CBaLe2AWMnoHgBQ&ved=0CCoQpwUoCw&source=lnt&tbs=cdr%3A1%2Ccd_min%3A1975%2Ccd_max%3A1999&tbm=nws

Why does this article skip from Dick Clark taking over hosting duties, immediately to 2000? I don't expect (or want) a run down of every performer in the intermediate years, but if the program is notable for its longevity, there should be something of interest to say. -- Zanimum (talk) 00:51, 19 December 2012 (UTC)


 * Actually, with that new reference, now we got definitive proof that the death of Guy Lombardo has a direct correlation with when Dick Clark finally surpassed CBS in popularity. That is of course, given that the first few years were essentially a rivalry (the article compared it to The Myth of Sisyphus) until Lombardo's death finally gave him a good chance to seriously make an impact on December 31 forever. ViperSnake151   Talk  02:16, 19 December 2012 (UTC)


 * I've added in some very rough bits about the 1980s and 1990s co-hosts and special randomness, like a wedding of firefighters. That's what I had meant in my comment, though it is great that you were able to strengthen the Guy Lombardo correlation. If you wouldn't mind cleaning up my mess, I'll start reviewing the article. --  Zanimum (talk) 21:45, 27 December 2012 (UTC)

Update?
All the refs for the December 31, 2019, show are from December 30 or earlier. Shouldn't we cite stories from the event to document what actually happened instead of what was supposed to happen? —[ Alan M 1 (talk) ]— 04:20, 14 January 2020 (UTC)

ABC 2000 Today
I try to make clear that there have been 50 episodes, not 51 of Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve. There was no NYRE for 2000 due to ABC 2000 Today, and that's a broadcast of ABC News. SnoopyAndCharlieBrown202070 (talk) 00:38, 15 August 2023 (UTC)

Scheduling changes for the 2023 edition
Beginning with the 2023 edition, the special's first primetime portion ran from 8 to 10 and the second primetime portion began at 10:30; this was not only done in response to the introduction of NBC's new special, but also because of technical problems that affected the Puerto Rico countdown event the previous year. 24.191.232.15 (talk) 14:31, 30 November 2023 (UTC)
