Included Songs

As the show include both original musical material (mainly characters theme) and various well known artists tracks, I think it would be a good think to mention them. Unfortunately, I'm not that good at "how's song is that" kind of topic and it would be unconsistant to add them right now. Here's the ones I know (not much) if anyone knows any other just...err... add them:

Episode 1: Sin Bin

Garbage - Push Up (Mister-T toy)

Episode 2: Train Pain

Nirvana - Aneurysm (Dinosaur dentist)

Episode 3: Hot Spot
Episode 4: Insomnia

Portishead - Glory Box (Alex's sleeping)

Episode 5: The Con
Episode 6: Graffiti

Episode 7: Limo

Sneaker Pimps - 6 Underground ("Someone who really really really really loves you")

Episode 8: Hotel Bar

Rockwel - Somebody's Watching Me (Drunk Jen)

Episode 9: Testing

Funki Porcini - Hyde Park (Some samples used for Goat's fears) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.236.207.55 (talk) 23:45, 7 May 2009 (UTC) Beck - Loser (Alex's flashback) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.236.207.55 (talk) 23:52, 7 May 2009 (UTC) Brainbug - Nightmare [sinister strings mix] (Alex's fear) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.86.28.190 (talk) 15:54, 10 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Portishead - Sour Time ("Easy? Rough?")

Episode 11: Before and After

Massive Attack - Teardrop (Meeting Alex)

Episode 12: Cropsey Clanners

Blur - Tender (Car trip)

Episode 13: Trip Or Treat —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.86.28.190 (talk) 15:19, 10 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Character Profiles

I added a pic next to the character profiles which looks good.. the only problem is that i had to use a table to line the pics with the text properly like what was done on the Beavis and Butt-head page, the thing is though, this makes the text look cramped on lower resolutions

Your's got pulled for copyright reasons, I think. I added new ones, let's see if they survive. 207.105.246.22 22:53, 23 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

DVD release

"With MTV's cancelled Clone High coming to DVD recently, there may still be hope of Downtown following suit."

I'm deleting this sentence as it doesn't make any mention of an official statement regarding a future DVD release, and due to the fact that the release of Clone High had little to nothing to do with MTV. The show was released on DVD through Teletoon, who co-produced the show with MTV. The rights to Downtown (as far as I know) are completely the property of Viacom/MTV. I would love to see a quote from MTV regarding the series, similar to the many quotes I've seen in regards to a future DVD release of Daria

Please give a justification before reverting again.

Full Episode Recaps

I've taken the liberty of fully expanding each episode recap, since the old ones have basically little to give information of. Hopefully, I'll finish all 13 episodes, so that anyone who wants to recall each episode plot, there'll be there for everyone to see. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 125.212.113.124 (talk • contribs).

The episode summaries are getting large and it might be time for the episodes to have their own article. However, the episodes have to pass WP:N or else they get deleted. Douglasr007 00:39, 28 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Community consensus

There is a community consensus for the default size for images in the infobox. Without a consensus for why the default is not appropriate, there is no reason for manual override. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 00:02, 16 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Fine fuck it! I'm sick of being cyberbullied.... have this look like shit. Grapesoda22 (talk) 00:03, 16 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

someone disagreeing with you because you are editing against community consensus is not "cyberbullying". -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 00:21, 16 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I have found some of the sources of Downtown MTV's Website!

So recently I did found the sources from downtown website of MTV in a Wayback machine! Maybe there can be any discussion or investigation about it? Here:
