Comment: Still fails MOS:TVSPLIT and WP:NFTV. Zero improvements since the last decline. If the submitter keeps resubmitting without any improvements, this draft may be rejected outright without the option to resubmit. — YoungForever(talk) 22:45, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: Article fails WP:NTV and MOS:TVSPLIT as it lacks any production, casting, filming, or critical response information. It's currently just a duplication of information that already exists elsewhere and is better housed there. That said, in its current state, this article would be an unnecessary WP:SPINOUT, and should only be accepted if it's information can be expanded significantly.
