Even though a few have existed for a while this and the following lists don't seem to have any more point to them than ones for 2011 even if much can be verified. Lists for the sake of lists, liscruft, call it what you may but such lists exist elsewhere already in 200X in American television making them redundant and redirects seem very far from suitable in this case.
These other related articles are included in this AfD for the same reasons as above:

- As a note, I am aware of Television series cancelled or ended but isn't really an AfD candidate given it can be repurposed. treelo radda 23:56, 28 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete all, no evidence of encyclopedic notability of such lists. Laudak (talk) 05:11, 29 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep all.While this information may be in the 200X in television articles, it is buried and not easily discernible. The reader has to sift through the "Television shows" section looking for end dates rather than being able to consult a concise list.→Wordbuilder (talk) 05:56, 29 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]- If the lists in this AfD had dates they'd be partially useful but still redundant. I would venture that the only discernible difference lies in that one list is chronologically ordered whereas the other sorts by network, not the sort of information one couldn't add to the existing list and add sortable columns to. As for "buried and not easily discernable", take 2007 in television for example, I only had to click "Ending this year" in the TOC and got a list which whilst lengthy was discernible and needs some modifications to make it more accessible, not a spinout article which is equally as lengthy but also as complex to navigate if the end user isn't looking for networks. treelo radda 10:56, 29 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm chaging my vote to delete all (redirect to the aforementioned 200X in television/American television). I previously missed the ending list. When I created the first article in this set, I did not realize I was duplicating information that was already well presented elsewhere on Wikipedia. →Wordbuilder (talk) 16:43, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment None of these lists are very much at the moment, and they were all created at the same time, so I can see two possibilities. The first was that this was all the article' originator intended, an indiscriminate list of names of TV shows. If that's as far as anyone wants to take this, then I'd say delete 'em all. The second possibility is that someone envisioned some context to go with the shows listed-- when the final original episode ran, whether there was a series finale or whether it was a cancellation that left the show's premise unresolved, that there would be more to it than this. I suspect that it's the former-- somebody bringing an article into the world to be left on Wikipedia's doorstep with a note pinned to the blanket. What does the "2001 season" mean? Is it the 2001-2002 TV season or the 2000-2001 season, or both? Most people don't think of a TV season (or a college basketball season) as occupying a single calendar year. A serious article of this nature should be worked on one page at a time, rather than creating them six at a time. Mandsford (talk) 16:46, 29 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Why do you think all of these lists were created at the same time? As far as what the seasons mean, in most of the articles it is clearly defined: "The following is a list of U.S. television shows cancelled or ended between the beginning of the Fall 2006 television season and the beginning of the Fall 2007 season (roughly September 2006 to August 2007)." →Wordbuilder (talk) 18:39, 29 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- I stand corrected. I see that 2001, 2002 and 2009 were all made this month, and the others were made at different times. They all follow the same format, which is not meant as a compliment. The topic is notable enough, and it's possible that any or all of these yawners can be made into interesting and useful articles, so I'm not voting to delete.

- Delete all. Essentially and unnecessarily duplicates "YEAR in television", which is already being further duplicated/disambiguated by "YEAR in COUNTRY television". Sarilox (talk) 03:54, 5 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete all. What a mess. There doesn't seem to be any sense in organising series in this way. Fences&Windows 19:50, 5 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
