Reasonable Source?[edit]

I ran into Michael Spivak in a coffee shop last week (mid-January 2007), and shocked him by recognizing his name as the producer of the show. When I proved it by humming the theme music, he said he had in fact written it himself. When I asked if the network had considered the show as 'filler' he said that no, it was seen by some 420,000 people in Southern Ontario in its Thursday evening slot and was a huge success. (I was around 10 when it was shown.) Does talking to the show producer count as reasonable sourcing? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 15.227.137.70 (talkcontribs).

In one sense, it's brilliant sourcing. Unfortunately, in the sense that counts here, it's useless, since an independent reader will be unable to verify the claim. That makes it thoroughly unencyclopaedic. Good story though... Tez 13:39, 29 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Unfortunately, this would count as original research, unless Mr. Spivak published this information somewhere that others could reference it, such as an independent website or book.Nutster (talk) 15:13, 28 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
