  • Comment: This is based far too heavily on content self-published by the show's own production company, distributor and network. A company's own press releases announcing its own work are not support for notability, and we have to see third-party sources covering and analyzing it independently of its own creators, such as media outlets covering it as news.
    The only acceptable sources here are Guernsey Press and RealScreen, but that's not enough. Bearcat (talk) 16:30, 16 May 2024 (UTC)
