@Favre1fan93: During the Winter TCA Virtual Press Conference, Hulu revealed that Marvel’s M.O.D.O.K. will premiere all 10 episodes of the new adult comedy series on May 21, 2021. Find a first look of the new series in the video above!] Mike210381 (talk) 00:32, 27 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Star/Disney+ release

Please stop removing references to the international release on Star. Wikipedia is not the USA, and it is entirely reasonable to include it. Per MOS:TVINTL, "Editors are encouraged instead to add noteworthy foreign broadcasts, if reliably sourced. These can include: broadcasts in primarily English-speaking nations such as the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand..." Stifle (talk) 11:39, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

FYI, the parameter on the Infobox and the lead are only for primary networks. On the network parameter per {{Infobox television}}, The original network(s) on which the show has appeared. Do not add foreign broadcasters here. Star is a secondary network. The Star release info belongs only on the body aka under the Release section, not the lead. Hulu is the only network producing the TV series, not Star. — YoungForever^(talk) 15:44, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Again, you're using a US-centric view. This is Wikipedia, not the USA. Nothing in the template or elsewhere says that the "original network" is to be the "network producing the TV series"; indeed, the header of that section of the infobox is "release", not "production". The series launched on Hulu and Star at the exact same time, therefore both Hulu and Star are "the original network(s) on which the show has appeared". Stifle (talk) 16:06, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hulu is the original network for the series. Star can (and is) covered in the "Release" section, where it is appropriate to do so. It is not appropriate to do so in the infobox or lead. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 16:40, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

That is incorrect. Hulu is the only original network, Star is a secondary network. Star has a lot of exclusive international distribution of American TV series, but it doesn't mean they are Star originals. For example, take List of Netflix exclusive international distribution programming, we do not called the TV series on there as Netflix originals nor list Netflix as an Original network on the Infobox. Another example is List of Hulu original programming#Exclusive international television distribution, we do not called them as Hulu originals nor list as Hulu an Original network on the Infobox. — YoungForever^(talk) 17:37, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yup, great point YoungForever. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 18:13, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
