Hired![edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Article does not list or cite any context or notability outside of subject's appearance on two episodes of Mystery Science Theater 3000. In addition, the only pages that link to the article are: pages related to MST3k, a disambiguation page, two film list pages, an article on the production company's founder (where Hired! is discussed only in its context as an MST3k subject), and a few talk and user pages. A search on Google came up with nothing to fix this issue. Jedzz (talk) 07:08, 21 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: While this topic is mentioned briefly a few times here, mentions outside of that book are very minor. Erik (talk | contrib) ^{(ping me)} 21:17, 21 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: If all else fails, this could redirect to Jam_Handy#Filmmaking, where it's mentioned along with another film of his that was MT3K'd. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 04:30, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect per Tokyogirl79. I think this is a good resolution for this topic. Erik (talk | contrib) ^{(ping me)} 12:05, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Jam_Handy#Filmmaking per Tokyogirl79's suggestion. As the nom mentioned, there are really no sources discussing this in any length or detail. Its only claim to fame is that it was featured in MST3K, and all the sources that do mention it are purely in the context of that. As its already discussed in Jam Handy's main article, a redirect to that would be the perfect solution. 64.183.45.226 (talk) 18:07, 6 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
