About Punch Television Networks

Launched on Wednesday, October 19, 2011, shortly after Columbus Day, Punch TV is, in many ways, also an explorer. Instead of spending the normal costs of $100 million to launch, Punch TV spent $10 million. Rather than launching by airing re-runs of popular and loved shows, Punch TV has 70% original programming.

And now, Punch TV Network extends its originality even further when in May of this year the company introduced its Fall lineup of shows to prospective advertisers and/or their representatives. The success of the Up-Front resulted in commitments of twelve million dollars in advertising dollars to Punch TV's fall line-up of shows.

At Up-Front, Punch TV Network introduce 17 of its roster of 36 new dramas, comedies, variety shows, talk shows, children's shows, and inspirational entertainment. The event was attended by a number of celebrities including Blair Underwood, Bill Duke, Dawnn Lewis, Obba Babatunde, Omar Gooding, Damian Hall, Fonzworth Bently, Kiki Shephard, Lorraine Toussaint, and many others.

Punch TV Network, with a presence this Fall in more than 100 cities, does, indeed, personify the spirit of independent television. Punch TV! "Are you thirsty yet?"

On the other hand, adding European destinations to ICPlaces would be awesome!!!

LOL good! Sorry Riklee. But a few of the un-longs thought you were serious :)

Thanks for pointing it out TushieC!

Your "hunch" is called embezzlement. Do you really think Steve is that stupid? LOL.

The only way he could use company funds to go to Paris is if there is a legitimate business reason to be there. Steve knows that he is under scrutiny, both by investors and by the SEC. Your hunches need an education.

From the same site you referenced...

Beware of the Hollywood Crew Blacklist Blog Site

To all readers!!! Beware of the "Hollywood Crew Blacklist Blog Site." It is not an authentic blacklist nor does it represent the thoughts or feelings of any well respected individuals, businesses, studios, production or media companies or any other entertainment entity within Hollywood.

The "Hollywood Crew Blacklist" is a blog site that was created by a disgruntled person or competitive entity who is trying to destroy companies and/or individuals that work or own companies in the entertainment business.The person who created the blog site tracks negative posts from Craigslist and posts them on his/her blog site. The problem with this is that some of the negative posts on Craigslist are false. For example, a couple of negative posts were recently posted on Craigslist and Craigslist removed them because the posts violated Craiglists privacy policy. The "Hollywood Crew Blacklist" took those posts and placed them on their blog site. Craigslist was smart enough not to allow the posts because they jeopardized the security of the victim's privacy. How foolish the "Hollywood Crew Blacklist" is now for violating someone's right to privacy.

The "Hollywood Crew Blacklist" blog site is also a haven for those who may have lost or were terminated from their jobs, who were interns that weren't hired or are individuals who prefer to lash out rather than face their inadequacies and try to improve themselves. Problems don't get solved trashing someone or some company on the internet. Our nation has a legal system available for all who feel they have been wronged...If the information one posts on the "Hollywood Crew Blacklist" is true...It's best to file a claim with the court. Broadcasting personal issues all over the internet only makes "the complainer" look bad. Not the owner or company.

On the other hand, "Beware of the Hollywood Crew Blacklist" was created to refute the "Hollywood Crew Blacklist." It is for those who want to take a stand against those who use the internet as a vengence tool to tear down others by posting malicious and negative comments soley to damage the character and reputation of those who are truly good, hard-working people and/or respectable companies.

In these hard economical times, it is not uncommon for an owner or company to have good intentions to pay a worker in the beginning; however, not be able to do so because of the rise of unexpected financial problems, forcing the original plan to become obsolete. That does not mean that the company or individual maliciously or purposely set out to take advantage of his/her worker. Nor does it mean the owner or company is a fraud or his business is a scam. This is not to say that there are absolutely no owners or companies that take advantage of workers; however, those instances happen less frequently and are less likely.If your name or company is on the "Hollywood Crew Blacklist" and you are a victim of it's negative posts, there are two sides to every story. We know theirs, now tell us yours!

This is old news. More recently, we know that Mr. Collins has issued a cease and desist against this site and that lawsuits may be pending. DD isn't about rehashing untruthful information.

Hello all fellow political prisoners lol!

LMAO - love ya man and love the post!

Time will tell.
I would say, however, that one of the traits of successful people is that they don't give up. Just because other ventures have not succeeded is no guarantee that this one will fail.
I am not at all surprised at the recent fall in PPS. Fear is a powerful motivator for some.
By all means, continue to bet. Meanwhile I will be investing.
GLTY

Lol same here

Part of Business 101 is called NETWORKING. Shaking hands, being in front of the camera and getting your name out there is part of any successful business, esp in the entertainment industry. I would be worried if Steve wasn't doing this as part of growing the business.

Looks like one here in Chicago!

How do you know that? Details?

Don't see any pic with him behind bars.

Why would you say that?

YUM YUM BOUGHT ME SOME!

FAIR WARNING LOL
I am not an expert - I always maintain that, so take what I say with a salt lick made for an elephant herd...

I expect this morning to be quiet through 10AM EST. the Supreme Court ruling on healthcare is due, and I believe that the market is going to be waiting for that news.

I realize that ICPA doesn't have much of anything to do with healthcare, but the markets will be distracted. So I expect lower volume and long waits for orders to be filled.

Regardless of the outcome, a great deal of attention is going to be focused on the healthcare market today. Just my suspicion.

DISCLAIMER: I won't give my prediction or opinion of the ruling. I will say that I am an President Obama Loving Screaming Liberal who has worked in the healthcare industry all of my adult life. I realize I am a member of a very small minority here

Might refer to finalization of the Punch TV deal...
OR might refer to CC PR...
OR might refer to something completely new!

Regardless, fun waiting to see :)

Exactly. For example... It took years for Steve Jobs to accept the fact that Lisa was in fact his daughter and to pay the small amount requested by the mother, and we all remember what a terrible CEO he was...

Seriously, I prefer the explanation that it was a misunderstanding at the state level. Give me something concrete and recent and we'll talk.

I was at the United Terminal at O'Hare and actually saw a huge CC branded monitor on the concourse. This was last week and it was still in test mode with no actual content. I will be flying back through there it his Thursday and will report if it is up and running.

Loading more at these prices!

Just looked at the Self Help page, looks good!
I read the post yesterday regarding the day off in India. Are we up and running here? PR today or this week regarding the Self Help page?

Won't see accurate bid/ask until 9am EST or so.

Exactly - Steve is about building something meaningful. Glad to be part of it!

So do you think Steve isnt being honest about NASDAQ end of next year? Given what he's achieved so far - I would believe him and have faith in his goals.

What was the response regarding Clear Channel?

SOWEEET!
Now that I have the shares I intended, this can go through the roof. I'd tell you what my Intention is for the PPS, but then it wouldn't be a Secret.

Summer Fridays... No big surprise the volume is light. Got my shares this morning! Helping where I can :)

And I have a confession to make...
I practice The Secret/Law of Attraction/Intention - call it want you want, but I'm good at it :)

My Intention is to have X # of shares BEFORE the PPS goes up. I will have achieved that goal tomorrow. After that, my Intention is for the PPS to steadily rise over the long term. May not be immediate, but my Intention is clear. Patience is key.

So you all can blame me if you want for the last week or so LOL.

Long and Strong on ICPA!!!

Got my mid year bonus earlier than expected. A good chunk of it will be spent soaking up more of this float. Ridiculously undervalued at this point BUT revs are going to be needed to prove this point to new investors IMO.

Buying tomorrow and will be in for the LONG!

Oh yeah - not at all worried. Still think it will take revenues to up the PPS on a consistent basis.

Just walking through O'Hare United terminal and saw the ClearChannel monitor! Still in test mode, so no programming yet. Will update when it's working here!

Agree with that. I wondered about the timing of releasing the PR on a Friday afternoon and what that would do in terms of SP on Monday. Too much time to forget about it perhaps, esp with fathers day etc. still extremely optimistic about the direction and the future of this company.

IMO the term "scumbag" applies to the type of person who victimizes the less fortunate, weaker, men who beat on women etc. I don't believe that is the case with Mr. Samblis.

AMEN B-Man
Was thinking that my mid year bonus wouldn't have the punch (sorry) i was hoping for if the PPS took off. Just gives me more opportunity to soak up some of that float!

Over-saturated market. Too many competitors who will end up under cutting price and cut into market share. No volume to speak of. Doesn't bode well for long term.

Totally agree. Much better PPS coming. Still thinking revs will be the real driver.

Looks like POS to me. Going to pennies soon.

Looking forward to seeing what happens! Should be a fun ride this week!
