Delete. TV series whose article can be basically summed up as "this is a thing that existed, the end", and which cites no reliable source coverage to support it -- the only "references" here are its IMDb page (not a reliable or notability-conferring source in and of itself) and a deadlink to the URL of its former profile on the website of the television channel it aired on (a primary source which couldn't assist notability even when it was live.) I'm willing to withdraw this if somebody with better database access to US media coverage than I've got can find the sourcing necessary to properly substantiate its notability, but WP:NMEDIA does not confer an automatic inclusion pass on every television series just because IMDb verifies that it existed.

  • Delete There is hardly any reliable secondary coverage available. I don't see any indication that this was a notable TV series (WP:TVSHOW). IMDb shows that it was 6 episodes at most. I don't really see a claim of significance here and without any secondary coverage, there is not enough to write an article per WP:WHYN. So delete. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 06:07, 5 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
