That is to say, ''six months'' after the show was filmed. I get that this happened '''where''' the show was filmed, but as I said in my edit, I fail to see what relevance it has to an article about the show, or its production. It didn't happen '''during''' production, it did not happen '''because''' of the show or because of someone involved in the show. The sentence is jarring and unpointed. If someone were filming a show about a fictional library in Winnipeg last year and they chose the Millennial Library, we would not bring up the fact that someone recently jumped to their death there, because, while it's sad, it's just not relevant and for that reason not notable. Lots of things happen in neighbourhoods where people make movies. We don't list every act of violence that happens to take place in their immediate vicinity--can you imagine if that was the rule on the set of Chicago Hope?

:Yeah, I saw your edit and you're right. If there were some actual substantive connection to the production of ''Kim's Convenience'', then it would be relevant to note here — but merely happening outside a location that the show happens to use in its establishing shots is just [[WP:TRIVIA]], not a substantive connection. And even the ''reference'' doesn't actually make any substantive mention of the show — it just (unfortunately) happens to have the "Kim's Convenience" sign visible in the ''photograph'', without commenting on the fact in any way whatsoever.

– There's a rational explanation for why the articles are located where they are, in that the play already had an article before the television series even existed at all — but now that the television series exists and is quite successful, it is much more likely to be the [[WP:PRIMARYTOPIC]] for most readers. The series already vastly outstrips the original play in pageview stats, even ''before'' you account for the fact that some portion of the play's pageviews were probably ''also'' people who really wanted the television series and had to two-step their way through the hatnote. So the television series should be [[WP:PRIMARYTOPIC]] for the plain name here with the play at a disambiguated title, rather than vice versa.

Season 3 Announced
Season 3 has been announced! But I don't know what citation style Wikipedia uses, and I'm a little too lazy to find everything and do all the editing. http://www.cbc.ca/kimsconvenience/blog/season-3-of-kims-convenience-has-been-officially-announced 2001:56A:F34B:B00:5129:E6EB:FCC0:8385 (talk) 07:01, 25 March 2018 (UTC)
Shooting location, literally
At first I thought this was vandalism. I realize it was a good faith edit, but I'm inclined to say this does not belong in the article:
On January 8, 2017, an individual with fatal gunshot wounds was found lying in front of 252 Queen East.
That is to say, six months after the show was filmed. I get that this happened where the show was filmed, but as I said in my edit, I fail to see what relevance it has to an article about the show, or its production. It didn't happen during production, it did not happen because of the show or because of someone involved in the show. The sentence is jarring and unpointed. If someone were filming a show about a fictional library in Winnipeg last year and they chose the Millennial Library, we would not bring up the fact that someone recently jumped to their death there, because, while it's sad, it's just not relevant and for that reason not notable. Lots of things happen in neighbourhoods where people make movies. We don't list every act of violence that happens to take place in their immediate vicinity--can you imagine if that was the rule on the set of Chicago Hope?
