Poorly sourced, certainly not encylopedia-worthy. – VegetaSaiyan...going Super Saiyan 5! (talk) 20:23, 21 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep and Cleanup - I agree that the article has poor sources, but its notability comes from its 2-year run on ABC. Significant coverage can be found from this run and IMDb has some info at http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1638062/ Keep the article, but add up on sources. --Michaelzeng7 (talk - contribs) 21:29, 21 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep Program has aired on two major national networks and PBS's children's cable channel; sources are needed but at the very least being carried on those networks seals notability. Nate • (chatter) 21:41, 21 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - prominent and popular internationally. This nomination demonstrates low attention to detail, and I would hope future nominations would show better attention to detail before your next run at admin - David Gerard (talk) 21:47, 21 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep the Google News link on the top of the page demonstrates plenty of RS coverage about the show, which aired on multiple national networks. A cursory effort at WP:BEFORE would have prevented this. Jclemens (talk) 03:24, 23 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
