Keep - Although the article is lacking sufficient reliable sources. The show is set to air on a notable television channel [1], that alone should pass WP:NTELEVISION and multiple reliable sources are present online, [2], [3], [4], [5], [6]. Ceethekreator (talk) 11:11, 2 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Easily passes WP:NTELEVISION and WP:GNG. Pichpich (talk) 18:42, 3 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
