Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. Sceptre (talk) 15:57, 4 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I found one source that seem to verify Allen did indeed name ES's predecessor after his mother...

[1] It does mention in the article that CF was named after his mother, Carolyn Folks.

History

Entertainment Studios was founded by Byron Allen in 1993 as CF Entertainment ^[1] The company was initially focused on producing low-cost, syndicated non-fiction programming, including interview series and court shows (largely scripted from actual testimony). Allen serves as host for some of these programs.^[2] DHX1961 (talk) 17:09, 4 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

How about adding a section about the origins of Entertainment Studios coming from Byron Allen producing and hosting a talk show in 1989 under the name BYCA Productions and BYCA Distribution?^[3] BYCA might not be the same company, but it was the forerunner to CF Entertainment/Entertainment Studios.

Entertainment Studios now Allen Media Group

check the website. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.47.40.121 (talk) 12:14, 11 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The interesting thing is, while the frontpage does indeed have the "AMG" "Allen Media Group" logo on it, the website still identifies as "Home - Entertainment Studios Corporate". 2600:1700:C960:2270:5585:E7B6:8C33:CBA5 (talk) 20:43, 26 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Please add "Allen Media Broadcasting" to the list of divisions for Entertainment Studios. The "Allen Media Broadcasting" section of the article even refers to the broadcaster as a division of Entertainment Studios. 2600:1700:C960:2270:1D92:339B:AE75:887C (talk) 09:05, 7 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: I don't think it makes sense to go there as Allen Media Broadcasting is an entirely separate broadcasting group and is not a program. Sennecaster (What now?) 23:17, 9 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. From what I can see, both Allen Media Group and Entertainment Studios are still in existence. A dead URL is not sufficient evidence to make a title change at this point. 162 etc. (talk)— Preceding undated comment added 1:26 PM, February 7, 2023 (UTC)
