  • Article is long and new enough as well as well written and copyvio-free. However, I would prefer that you cite another reliable, independent source for the critical reception instead of using Rotten Tomatoes, which, while reliable on its own, is not an arbiter of critical consensus; you can still report on the RT scores, though. Hooks are cited both in this page and article, but I prefer ALT1 (that is, with another independent source as I've said) for obvious reasons but with some minor alterations:

ALT0 seems dull and reliant on readers' knowledge of award-giving bodies. Title card image, which is freely-licensed, seems more decorative than encyclopedic within the context of this DYK, so I seriously doubt it's gonna make it to the main page. Since QPQ has been given, this should be good to go once the issues are addressed. Nineteen Ninety-Four guy (talk) 07:09, 16 June 2024 (UTC)

Nineteen Ninety-Four guy, thanks for the review: better sources for ALT1 are The AV club and Bustle. ALT1a looks good! MyCatIsAChonk (talk) (not me) (also not me) (still no) 11:28, 16 June 2024 (UTC)
  • Just clump those sources in the article while also rewriting the sentence into, Some critics described the show as necessary comic relief from the activities of the Trump administration., and then remove The fourth season was generally well received from Critical reception and leave the Rotten Tomatoes bit as a standalone sentence.
