Notes to Condensed Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation

The interim condensed financial statements included herein, presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles and stated in US dollars, have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to not make the information presented misleading.

These statements reflect all adjustments, which in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained therein. Except as otherwise disclosed, all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. It is suggested that these interim condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2009 and notes thereto included in the Company's 10-K annual report. The Company follows the same accounting policies in the preparation of interim reports.

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the “ASC”). The ASC has become the single source of non-governmental accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) recognized by the FASB in the preparation of financial statements. The ASC does not supersede the rules or regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), therefore, the rules and interpretive releases of the SEC continue to be additional sources of GAAP for the Company. The Company adopted the ASC as of July 1, 2009. The ASC does not change GAAP, and did not have an effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the prior periods presented have been reclassified to conform to the current period financial statement presentation.

Results of operations for the interim periods are not indicative of annual results.

Note 2 – Going Concern

As shown in the accompanying condensed financial statements, the Company has incurred recurring losses from operations resulting in an accumulated deficit of ($19,248,181), and as of September 30, 2010, the Company’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $1,019,803 and its total liabilities exceeded its total assets by $1,019,188. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management is actively pursuing new ventures to increase revenues. In addition, the Company is currently seeking additional sources of capital to fund short term operations. Management believes these factors will contribute toward achieving profitability. The accompanying financial statements do not include any a djustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of any uncertainty as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements also do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

The fair value of each option and warrant grant are estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions used for grants under the fixed option plan:

	September 30,			September 30,
	2010			2009

Average risk-free interest rates		1.34	%		1.85	%
Average expected life (in years)		3			3
Volatility		431	%		417	%

The Black-Scholes option pricing model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of short-term traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including expected stock price volatility. Because the Company’s employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management’s opinion the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options. During 2010 and 2009, there were no options granted with an exercise price below the fair value of the underlying stock at the grant date.

The weighted average fair value of options granted with exercise prices at the current fair value of the underlying stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was approximately $0.31 per option, and during the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was approximately $0.18 per option.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Overview and Outlook

Players Network was incorporated in the State of Nevada in March of 1993. Players Network is a global media and entertainment company engaged in the development, production, distribution and marketing of television programs and internet broadcasting about the Las Vegas and Gaming Lifestyles, and other related entertainment themes. Players Network owns and operates three key brands, Players Network, Vegas on Demand TV and Sexy City Sin TV.

The Company’s television channels consist of original programming that is distributed over its own VOD Channels to approximately 24,000,000 homes over Comcast, DirecTV, AT&T, Verizon, Dish Network and its own Broadband Network, as well as, Hulu, Blinkx, Google, YouTube and Yahoo Video, for DVD home video, mobile platforms, and through worldwide television syndication. Players Network has a thirteen year history of providing consumers with quality ‘Gaming and Las Vegas Lifestyle’ video content.

The Company focuses on unique, high-quality programming that captures the excitement, passion, enjoyment, sex appeal, entertainment, information, celebrity, and the non-stop adrenaline rush of the Las Vegas Gaming Lifestyle. Players Network’s content goes beyond poker, casino action, sports betting, and racing, to lifestyle programs about entertainment and fine living that attract the young and sophisticated viewers that comprise the major digital media demographic.

Much of Players Network’s programming is educational, involving experts helping viewers become smarter gaming consumers, so when they visit a casino they have the best chance possible to win. Many shows are celebrity driven, since so many celebrities in movies and music, TV and sports come to Las Vegas to play.

Players Network programming is conceived and produced to create successful advertising, cross-promotional and marketing opportunities for distributors and sponsors by engaging this highly targeted, desirable audience in programming that excites them.

As we continue to expand our business and implement our business strategy, our current monthly cash flow requirements will exceed our near term cash flow from operations. Our available cash resources and anticipated cash flow from operations are insufficient to satisfy our anticipated costs associated with new product development. There can be no assurance that we will be able to generate sufficient cash from operations in future periods to satisfy our capital requirements. Therefore, we will have to continue to rely on external financing activities, including the sale of our equity securities, to satisfy our capital requirements for the foreseeable future. Due, in part, to our lack of historical earnings, our prior success in attracting additional funding has been limited to transactions in which our equity is used as currency. In lig ht of the availability of this type of financing, and the lack of alternative proposals, our board of directors has determined that the continued use of our equity for these purposes may be necessary if we are to sustain operations. Equity financings of the type we have been required to pursue are dilutive to our stockholders and may adversely impact the market price for our shares. However, we have no commitments for borrowings or additional sales of equity, the precise terms upon which we may be able to attract additional funding is not known at this time, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in consummating any such future financing transactions on terms satisfactory to us, or at all.

Revenues:

During the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, we received revenues primarily from two sources - licensing fees from our private networks, including the sale of in-home media and advertising fees, and production revenues, which included fees from third party programming production. Aggregate revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2010 were $10,059 compared to revenues of $4,833 in the three months ended September 30, 2009, an increase in revenues of $5,226, or 108%. Revenues from networks increased 777% in the three months ended September 30, 2010 due to increased market saturation of our video content through our newly revamped websites and the company’s existing media channels. Production revenues increased by 59% due to a short term project started in 2010 to develop media content for a local adventure s port business, and a three year distribution agreement we entered into on April 19, 2010 with a Company in Greece to distribute our audio/video content for $150,000 per year.

Direct Operating Costs:

Direct operating costs were $206,085 for the three months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $154,489 for the three months ended September 30, 2009, an increase of $51,596, or 33%. Our direct operating costs in 2010 increased due to an increase in the production costs for our audio/video content, much of which was paid in common stock in lieu of cash. During the three months ending September 30, 2010 we issued 605,588 shares of common stock valued at $149,318, while in the same period in 2009 we issued 780,000 shares valued at $88,000 and 150,000 stock options valued at $14,480 for video production services. In 2010 we continued to develop and distribute our content without maximizing our sales potential. Direct operating costs are comprised of video production and distribution costs.

General and Administrative:

General and administrative expenses were $101,004 for the three months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $258,612 for the three months ended September 30, 2009, a decrease of $157,608, or approximately 61%. The decrease in general and administrative expense for the three months ended September 30, 2010 compared to 2009 was due to hiring employees to handle administrative tasks that were previously outsourced to independent contractors, along with reductions in legal and professional fees. In the future we expect to continue to reduce our general and administrative costs.

Salaries and Wages:

Salaries and wage expense was $360,882 for the three months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $200,904 for the three months ended September 30, 2009, an increase of 159,978, or 80%. The Company recorded non-cash payments on accrued salaries and wages totaling $324,803 and $149,646, during the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, which included accrued salaries from prior periods. The non-cash payments consisted of the value of common stock, recorded at fair value, issued to employees of $25,000 and $-0- for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, as well as, common stock options, recorded at fair value of $299,803 and $149,646 for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Salaries and wage expenses increased for the three months ended September 30, 2010 compa red to 2009 primarily because of an increase in the issuance of common stock options as a bonus to the CEO.

Rent:

Rent expense was $6,000 and $18,529 for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Our rent expense decreased by $12,529, or 68%, as a result of the relocation of our office and the elimination of our sound stage warehouse subsequent to September 30, 2009. We expect our quarterly rent expense will be $6,000 for the foreseeable future.

Depreciation and Amortization:

Depreciation and amortization expense was $153 the three months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $153 for the three months ended September 30, 2009.

Net Operating Loss:

Net operating loss for the three months ended September 30, 2010 was $664,065, or ($0.01) per share, compared to a net operating loss of $657,784 for the three months ended September 30, 2009, or ($0.02) per share, an increase of $6,28,1 or 1%. Net operating loss increased primarily as a result of our increased non-cash direct operating costs and Officer compensation in 2010 compared to 2009. We increased production to meet our new demands with regard to our distribution agreement in Greece and expensed these costs as incurred, and awarded our CEO a bonus consisting of stock options.

Net Loss:

The net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2010 was $669,856 compared to a net loss of $659,302 for the three months ended September 30, 2009, an increased net loss of $10,554, or 2%. Net loss increased primarily as a result of our decreased non-cash officer salaries in 2010 compared to 2009, as well as, our increased non-cash direct operating costs incurred with respect to the development of audio/video content for our distribution agreement in Greece during 2010 compared to 2009.

Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2010 and September 30, 2009:

Revenues:

During the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, we received revenues primarily from two sources - licensing fees from our private networks, including the sale of in-home media and advertising fees, and production revenues, which included fees from third party programming production. Aggregate revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 were $57,348 compared to revenues of $51,901 in the nine months ended September 30, 2009, an increase in revenues of $5,447, or 10%, primarily due to increased production projects in 2010.

Direct Operating Costs:

Direct operating costs were $602,609 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $420,050 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, an increase of $182,559, or 43%. Our direct operating costs in 2010 increased due to an increase in the production costs for our audio/video content, much of which was paid in common stock in lieu of cash, and expensed as incurred, rather than capitalized. During the nine months ending September 30, 2010 we issued 3,295,588 shares of common stock valued at $450,318, while in the same period in 2009 we issued 1,840,500 shares valued at $220,215 for video production services. In 2010 we continued to develop and distribute our content without maximizing our sales potential. Direct operating costs are comprised of video production and distribution costs. Due to uncertainty in the valuation of our audio/video library, and the costs involved in obtaining an independent valuation study, we expense our audio/video development costs as incurred.

General and Administrative:

General and administrative expenses were $313,897 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $524,447 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, a decrease of $210,550, or approximately 40%. The decrease in general and administrative expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to 2009 was primarily due to reductions in overhead associated with our move to a smaller office location late in 2009, and hiring employees to handle administrative tasks that were previously outsourced to independent contractors. We expect to continue to reduce our general and administrative costs.

Salaries and Wages:

Salaries and wage expense was $497,445 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $581,697 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, a decrease of $84,252, or 14%. The Company recorded non-cash payments on accrued salaries and wages totaling $396,687 and $475,770, during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, which included accrued salaries from prior periods. The non-cash payments consisted of the value of common stock, recorded at fair value, issued to employees of $87,000 and $158,631 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, as well as, common stock options, recorded at fair value of $309,687 and $317,149 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Salaries and wage expenses decreased for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to 2009 primarily because of a decrease in the issuance of common stock options to Officers, and the unpaid leave of absence taken by the Company’s President of Programming during 2010.

Board of Director Services:

Board of director services expense was $17,399 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $68,852 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, a decrease of $51,453, or 75%. Board of director services decreased for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to 2009 due to a decrease in the compensation for board services, which included the issuance of common stock, as well as, common stock options. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, the Company recorded non-cash expenses for consulting services totaling $17,399 and $51,453. The non-cash expenses consisted of the value of common stock and common stock options, recorded at fair value, issued to board members.

Rent:

Rent expense was $20,000 and $56,028 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Our rent expense decreased by $36,028, or 64%, as a result of the relocation of our office and the elimination of our sound stage warehouse subsequent to September 30, 2009. We expect our quarterly rent expense will be $6,000 for the foreseeable future.

Depreciation and Amortization:

Depreciation and amortization expense was $458 the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $458 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009.

Net Operating Loss:

Net operating loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was $1,394,460, or ($0.03) per share, compared to a net operating loss of $1,599,631 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, or ($0.04) per share, a decrease of $205,171, or 13%. Net operating loss decreased primarily as a result of our decreased non-cash officer salaries and reductions in general and administrative expenses in 2010 compared to 2009.

Net Loss:

The net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was $1,389,944 compared to a net loss of $1,656,728 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, a decreased net loss of $266,784, or 16%. Net loss decreased primarily as a result of our decreased non-cash officer salaries and general and administrative expenses in 2010 compared to 2009, as well as, a reduction of $64,323, or 96%, in interest expenses in 2010 due to notes payable that were converted prior to 2010.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The following table summarizes total assets, accumulated deficit, stockholders’ equity and working capital at September 30, 2010 compared to September 30, 2009.

	September 30, 2010			September 30, 2009
Total Assets	$	9,008		$	9,225

Accumulated (Deficit)	$	(19,248,181	)	$	(17,555,892	)

Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit)	$	(1,060,688	)	$	(931,043	)

Working Capital (Deficit)	$	(1,019,803	)	$	(907,268	)

Our principal source of operating capital has been provided from private sales of our common stock, revenues from operations, and, to a limited extent, debt financing. At September 30, 2010, we had a negative working capital position of $(1,019,803). As we attempt to expand operational activities and develop our audio/video library, we expect to continue to experience net negative cash flows from operations in amounts not now determinable, and will be required to obtain additional financing to fund operations through common stock offerings and debt borrowings to the extent necessary to provide working capital. We have and expect to continue to have substantial capital expenditure and working capital needs. We do not now have funds sufficient to fund our operat ions at their current level for the next twelve months. We need to raise additional cash to fund our operations and implement our business plan. We expect that the additional financing will (if available) take the form of a private placement of equity, although we may be constrained to obtain additional debt financing in lieu thereof. We are maintaining an on-going effort to locate sources of additional funding, without which we will not be able to remain a viable entity. No financing arrangements are currently under contract, and there are no assurances that we will be able to obtain adequate financing. If we are able to obtain the financing required to remain in business, eventually achieving operating profits will require substantially increasing revenues or drastically reducing expenses from their current levels or both. If we are able to obtain the required financing to remain in business, future operating results depend upon a number of factors that are outside of our control.

To conserve on the Company's capital requirements, the Company has issued shares in lieu of cash payments to employees and outside consultants, and the Company expects to continue this practice. In the nine months ending September 30, 2010, the Company issued 7,501,787 shares of common stock valued at $1,026,501 in lieu of cash payments to employees and outside consultants. In the nine months ending September 30, 2009, the Company issued 6,858,794 shares of common stock valued at $718,053 in lieu of cash payments to employees and outside consultants. The Company is not now in a position to determine an approximate number of shares that the Company may issue for the preceding purpose in the remainder of 2010.

Item 3. Quantitative And Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks

Not applicable.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a – 15(c) and 15d – 15(e)). Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered in this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Controls

Our Principal Executive Officer does not expect that our disclosure controls or internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. Although our disclosure controls and procedures were designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, a control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute assurance that the objectives of the system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realiti es that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented if there exists in an individual a desire to do so. There can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, other than those stated above, during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. We are not presently a party to any material litigation, nor to the knowledge of management is any litigation threatened against us, which may materially affect us.
