Talk:The Fresh Beat Band

Comment
Will no one give any cited reason for the name change?
 * I've searched for a reason and could never find one. I assume copyright laws, but can't say for sure. Hole fan (talk) 20:50, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

Content direct from Nick Jr website?
The current content of this page appears to be the same as thecontent on the Nick Jr. web site. I'm guessing that Nick Jr. didn't copy from Wikipedia ;-)

The "About each episode" section's content comes directly from http://www.nickjr.com/the-fresh-beat-band/about-the-fresh-beat-band/the-fresh-beat-band-tv-show_ap.html.

The "Characters" section's content comes largely from http://www.nickjr.com/the-fresh-beat-band/about-the-fresh-beat-band/the-fresh-beat-band-characters_ap.html. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.25.164.23 (talk) 00:35, 31 October 2009 (UTC)

The "Characters" section is not bad, but the "About each episode" section in particular reads more like marketing copy than informational text. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.84.218.73 (talk) 16:35, 19 April 2010 (UTC)


 * It's a wiki. Fix it!  No, wait, I've done it for you. Rogerborg (talk) 15:42, 12 November 2010 (UTC)

This Show is NOT on Nick Jr!
I am forced to watch Nick Jr religiously by my 2 year old, and the fresh beat band, while advertised heavily on Nick Jr (to the point that you think it seems to be on Nick Jr) they are only advertisements and the show itself is played on Nickelodeon.
