Without looking at the rest of the article at more than a glance, my biggest issue with this is the Reception section. At present it only has two reviews - one of which isn't even by a professional critic, so I'd get rid of that per MOS:TV#Reception - and that really isn't enough. The purpose of a Reception section is to summarise the wide critical response to an episode, and one opinion (I'm discounting "the TV Critic") is in no way representative of the broader critical reception of the episode. Obviously, the more reviews the better, but I personally would say a bare minimum of three professional reviews are needed to give an overview of an episode's reception.

Actually The TV critic could be considerd a real review if you look in the ABOUT section of his website, I will try to find another review. --Pedro J. the rookie 21:18, 25 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

I'll put the GAN on hold rather than fail straight away, to give you a chance to look for more reviews (if possible). If you can flesh out the Reception section, I'll have a look at the rest of the article. 97198 (talk) 02:21, 20 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

I have looked at the TV Critic's website. My point is that it's a self-published website, so he's not being employed by anyone to write reviews. He's just a guy who started up a website and writes about his opinions of TV shows. You or I could do the same, but it wouldn't make either one of us a professional critic.
The one-week hold period is over and it appears as if you couldn't find any other reviews. I'm going to fail the article, sorry. Feel free to renominate if you can put together a more well-rounded overview of the episode's reception. 97198 (talk) 02:06, 28 November 2010 (UTC)Reply
