Season finale...

...is listed as May 23. Are we certain that it will be then? I know that ABC will announce their fall schedule on May 15, so the "unscheduled" episodes may air in the fall. But I haven't heard of a definite date for the first season's finale. Futon Critic just stops listing them after May 23. — WylieCoyote (talk) 02:02, 28 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Locations

Most of the show is likely shot on a sound stage, the exception seems to be the coffee shop, where the interior windows match the exterior establishing shot, and traffic can be seen out the windows.

James Van Der Beek's Condo (establishing shot): Dag Hammarskjold Tower Condominium 240 E. 47th St, Manhattan

June Colbern's Internship (establishing shot): One New York Plaza, Bowling Green, Manhattan

Can you provide reliable secondary sources which we can quote to verify this information? Without sources, it's all original research. Elizium23 (talk) 02:35, 6 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It is all original research... that's why I threw it up in talk to see what the best way to include the info if relevant enough. The Google street view links show a similar view to the shots mentioned.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.27.195.93 (talk • contribs) 03:44, 6 May 2012‎

Sorry, but it can't be included at all. Wikipedia prohibits original research. Find some news articles that talk about the shooting locations and we can quote them, but without independent publication, we have no way to verify these claims. Elizium23 (talk) 02:49, 6 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

What about Chloe´s Appartment, anyone knows the outside location? Im pretty sure its in Manhattan. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.54.72.236 (talk) 06:14, 19 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move

The following discussion is an archived discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the proposal was not moved. --BDD (talk) 21:23, 30 August 2012 (UTC) (non-admin closure)[reply]

Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment 23 → ? – I don't have a preference for what the new name of the article could be, but I think the 4 dashes after B should be removed. The new name could be just Don't Trust the B or Don't Trust the B***h. You decide; I have no preference. 68.44.51.49 (talk) 15:33, 23 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. That's the name of the show. No need to change. TBran dl ey 15:34, 23 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose The current article name is the official name of the program so there's no need for a move. --AussieLegend (talk) 23:09, 23 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. No real rationale is given for objecting to the existing title. In the official website, the logo uses a single very long dash, but four hyphens are used in text form in the phrase "Don't Trust the B---- in Apt 23 Extras", and this is also used at IMDb and other sources. This is not Wikipedia's own bowdlerization, which would be contrary to our Manual of Style; rather it is the actual name of the show. — P.T. Aufrette (talk) 15:43, 24 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose, in agreement with the above statements. Also all Google searches list it as we do. — WylieCoyote (talk) 23:47, 26 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

Order

Should the fact that ABC is airing the episodes in the wrong order be noted in the article? For example, 2x05 takes place before 1x06 and 1x07. -- Imladros (talk) 12:23, 7 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Episode Amount

In the season table there are 19 episodes total as part of the second season officially (All have aired in other countries), while only 11 aired in the U.S. I'm proposing that in a week that should be changed to 19 episodes, since all episodes will be distributed online. -- Tehhhhhh (talk) 2:38, 11 May 2013 (UTC)

Original run

The "Original run" in the infobox is the period between the first showing of the first and last episodes.

The last episode was shown on May 13, 2013 on Foxtel in Australia, according to the episode table in the article. See http://www.throng.com.au/2012/08/f/ I don't think this was "streamed", but even if it was, it would be the correct date as it was the first release. "Aired" applies equally to online releases. See e.g. Battlestar Galactica: Blood & Chrome.

Sorry for stupid typos in summary. Clicked enter prematurely. 202.81.242.28 (talk) 07:03, 19 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

International broadcast

Per WP:V, everything added to Wikipedia must be verifiable, but User:Jan Slimkop insists on adding unsourced content to the table, despite edit summaries indicating that it is unsourced and warnings on his/her talk page. The last time I removed the unsourced content I also cleaned up the table per MOS:TV, MOS:FLAG and WP:OVERLINK.[1] Jan Slimkop's response was to immediately revert all the changes that I made without explanation and has not acknowleged any warnings on his/her talk page. --AussieLegend (✉) 17:37, 19 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Wrong title!

The page should be called "Don't Trust the Bitch in Apartment 23",and nothing else. Facts don't have morale, and neither should they conforme to prude cultures.
