Disruptive editor alert

User:Chatterleybuns958 been putting shows that don't cite that they're part of Peak TV (or Golden Age, prestige). Please block him. Espngeek (talk) 17:44, 7 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Espngeek: They've been p-blocked from the article. In the future, you'll find it more effective if you report disruptive behaviour to the relevant noticeboard, such WP:AIV for vandalism, WP:ANEW for edit warring (as was the case here, see [1]), WP:SPI for sock-puppeting, and WP:ANI for other behavioural issues that don't specifically fall under those other boards. For content disputes, go to WP:DR. Always remember to post the article talk page first, to try and start a discussion to resolve the issue, and also make sure you've posted the requisite notices or warnings to their user talk page before filing a report. Hope this helps. - wolf 20:21, 23 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Should this article exist?

There's little connection between the shows listed other than they are all praised by some publication, the animated shows listed are usually cited as being part of a separate golden age of animation, the list just comes off as a list of TV shows of the past 20 years. Some of the sources don't even mention the show they supposedly list. Gazingo (talk) 01:24, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. - wolf 02:53, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. The idea/phrase "Peak TV" is a western neologism anyway, and there's no process or metric involved in listing arbitrary shows here beyond "someone liked them". It's a nonsense page and very western focused. 82.69.69.211 (talk) 15:51, 2 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. Sharknado and Breaking Bad shouoldn't be mentioned in the same breath in any context. What is the connection? They were both on during a time when there were a lot of TV shows? That doesn't matter. We already have articles listening the shows/films of the 2000s/2010s. Sharknado obviously wasn't acclaimed so that's not the connection. This article is literally worthless.
