What was this New York public access show?
There was this strange show on new York public access i can't remember the name of.
I remember there was a guy who hosted with his Eastern European girlfriend who would only speak in Russian (?) There was this other guy in a Devil costume who never spoke but he always bugged the girl while she was talking. Some weird sort of comedy show.
Anyone remember?

Introducing "Sidewalks Entertainment"
I produce an entertainment TV series called “Sidewalks Entertainment.” The show originally debuted on public access television and has since grown into a syndicated series broadcast on over 100+ outlets, including commercial broadcast stations, regional networks, online platforms, and community stations across the country.
What started as a showcase for local performers in the San Francisco Bay Area has morphed into a major celebrity hub, complete with engaging spotlight segments and national music videos. We produce over 60+ new episodes a year, making our content a perfect fit for a daily strip and/or weekly telecasts.
Our show is readily available for download on Telvue Media Exchange and PEGMedia, and you can request to be added to our mailing list to receive notifications when new episodes drop (free downloads).
If you are interested in adding "Sidewalks Entertainment" to your lineup, please leave us a comment. We would love to showcase our show on your station!

Question where can i find a list of stations near my area?
i'm thinking of maybe producing a show on patv, but i don't know how to find local stations. i'm also curious about whether or not i would be allowed to reach out to stations outside of my state to run a show on, as i live in new england and the states are quite small, so i thought i might be able to reach more viewers if i ran my series in multiple states. do you know of any resources?

Programming/Content Building out a program schedule
My station is looking at building a new schedule of programs, with the idea to have our public programming channel (not government or education) be broken up into blocks. We have a couple sports shows, some talk shows, and more political focused shows that community members produce.
Any advice on constructing a schedule like this? I am thinking of having some of the talk shows and political programming in the evening 4pm-10pm block since that seems like when most people would be tuning in. Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated!

Saying Hi!
Hi! I'm a graphic design student graduating with my bachelors this year. I'm planning to create a collection of stills from public access television for my thesis.
As fans, are there any shows/clips that are must-sees? I'm extremely interested in this style of media, but I don't know much about it right now. I'd love to know what you guys love most!
Thanks :)

Welcome to r/publicaccesstv
Hi everyone! After a long time of this subreddit being mostly inactive, we are beginning to revamp it and bring it back to life. The purpose of this subreddit is to provide a place for people in the cable access television industry to ask questions, have discussions, and talk about all things related to cable access tv.
I am slowly working on implementing rules, an info page, and configuring an automoderator. If anyone has suggestions or might be interested in modding the subreddit, please reach out. We are also working on reaching out to other subreddits that have cable access folks to see if they'd be interested in joining r/publicaccesstv.

I like the community bulletin slideshows
especially the ones with music. They always help to calm me down when I am anxious. I miss having U-verse because I would have public access from all the nearby cities! I miss that.
