Justification of the file's usage.

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of a fair use image as a replaceable image. Please do not modify it.

The result was to delete the image.

This orphaned talk page, subpage, image page, or similar is not eligible for speedy deletion under CSD G8 as it has been asserted to be useful to Wikipedia.
If you believe it should be deleted, please nominate it on Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion.

Firstly, this cannot be replaced by a free version that has the same effect, since a free version does not exist. Secondly, this is technically a derivative work, since it has been changed from the original version, by cropping and altering. Third, it is from a partial screenshot of a TV programme, which is one of Wikipedia's valid criteria. Fourth, its presence is needed to support the critical discussion of the related article. Fifth, the TV show in question was made by Stephen J. Cannell who died half a decade ago, so I don't expect he minds too much. And Sixth, there are plenty of other similar examples on Wikipedia which passed the requirements, so I believe the precedent has been established to which this file conforms.
