 * Demote to stub: I was going to suggest it be merged to Ted Weber but that article was deleted last night. As IMDb no longer accepts local programs, this is the only place this show could be recognized.  The show itself isn't all that notable, but the guests that appeared on it are.

 * Comment - If the show is not notable why should it be kept? As far as the guests being notable, how is this important?  Notability is not inherited.   red dogsix (talk) 14:07, 24 March 2015 (UTC)


 * Delete. At Articles for deletion/Ted Weber, I identified one nicely detailed article about Ted Weber's broadcasting career; that article mentions this show in passing. Nina A. Koziol, "Hollywood And Vines: Ted Weber Once Rubbed Elbows With The Rich And Famous, But Now His Streator Garden Is The Star", Chicago Tribune, September 6, 1998.  Unfortunately, neither I nor anyone else was able to come up with any other similarly detailed articles, and Ted Weber was accordingly deleted. If he's not notable, I don't see how this show can be. Mention could be added to Streator, Illinois about his house and gardens, which sources identify as a significant local attraction, but I couldn't find a basis for any more detailed Wikipedia coverage of his broadcasting activities. --Arxiloxos (talk) 16:02, 24 March 2015 (UTC)
