Fails WP:NOTDIR and WP:LISTN as the guest stars are only loosely associated with each other and the show. In addition, article is effectively unsourced (IMDb is WP:RS/IMDb/WP:NOTRS and does not count). Exact same case as similar articles deleted at WP:AfD, such as those on guest stars of The A-Team or ER or Desperate Housewives, etc. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 15:24, 29 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - There are no sources that I can find that discuss the guest stars of this series as a whole in any way that would allow it to pass WP:LISTN, and as the multitude of actors listed here are not notable because of being a guest star in the show, it does not serve a useful purpose for navigation. The only source being used for every entry is just IMDB. This really looks to run afoul of WP:INDISCRIMINATE. Rorshacma (talk) 16:14, 29 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:NOTIINFO. This is just a collection of bare mentions at IMDb. Ajf773 (talk) 21:40, 29 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Series was an anthology, thus outside of the hosts, every single actor on this 452-episode series was a guest star (thus this goes beyond the ER/DH/A-Team lists as beyond absurd), and over-sourcing to IMDb is not acceptable. Nate • (chatter) 00:01, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
