I've been working on this list since June of last year, bringing it from this to this to what it is now, with the help of others, of course. After failing a previous nomination in July, I have since tried to bring it to the FL standards and hope to gain some support or advice. – Zone46 23:52, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

- Object I'm going to have to make my standard "insufficient episode summaries" objection. For instance, "Kitty throws Eric an unwanted birthday party." I know what episode that is, but the plot isn't actually summarized. You should write short, but solid paragraphs and not worrying about spoilers. See List of The Sopranos episodes or List of Avatar: The Last Airbender episodes for examples. I feel the older FL's are insufficient as well and that may be what you were going on. Also, the fair use rationales are insufficient. They need to explain why the particular image is being used. It would also be beneficial to add writers and directors to the list. If you have the DVD's this should be no problem. Jay32183 00:24, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
- I don't find adding writers and/or directors necessary, at least not for this show. Every episode is directed by David Trainer (maybe this can be incorporated into the heading). I will try to add/expand image and episode summaries. – Zone46 00:39, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
- So add the note about the director in the lead. There is definitely enough variety in the writing staff to warrent inclusion, I just checked seven episodes and found six different writers/writing teams. Jay32183 01:37, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
- I added a short paragraph about the variety of writers the show had and sentence regarding David Trainer in the heading. I don't feel they need to be added for every episode, as other FLs similar to this list don't use this layout (list of South Park episodes, list of Stargate SG-1 episodes)– Zone46 02:56, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

- Support, even though I agree with Jay on the episode summaries; beyond that, this looks good. Cliff smith 04:08, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
- Oppose: Episode summaryies too short (i.e. insfifcient additional information). Tompw (talk) 23:52, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
- oppose per excessive use of fair use images. Renata 00:14, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
- Oppose I'm going to agree with Jay - expanded episode summaries really do improve the list, and as it stands they are far too short and don't really provide anything close to a decent summary. Qjuad 00:54, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
