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

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)
- 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)

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)
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)
