• " the CBS police procedural" WP:SEAOFBLUE.
• "September 20, 2010 for" comma after 2010.
• "2010–11 television season." in the United States...
• " for the Pilot on" shouldn't be capitalised. And probably should be linked to the plain "pilot" article rather than the specific episode.
• "on May 19, 2010 and " comma after 2010.
• "a full twenty-four episode season" -> "a full 24-episode season".
• You don't need to link common terms like "murder" or "terrorism".
• "Taryn Manning was also cast and receives an "Also starring" ..." -> Just "Taryn Manning received an "Also starring" ".
• "ranked #22 for the 2010-11 television season," avoid use of # to mean number per MOS:HASH, just say "number". And that 10-11 should be an en-dash, and once again, it's the US television season only.
• "second most watched episode" ->"second-most-watched episode"
• "though its English translations" drop "its"
• "U.S. viewers (millions)" refers to the number of viewers in the US in millions" don't mix U.S. and US. Especially not in a single sentence.
• Don't link common geographical locations like China. Rwanda I could tolerate I suppose, given our audience.
• "who falls to the sea" into the sea?
• "National Security Agency cyberterrorism " WP:SEAOFBLUE again.
• Triad is piped to a redirect.
• Production codes aren't in order, that may be deliberate, but where could I verify them please?
• Don't link common words like helicopter.
• Taryn Manning is overlinked in the ep 4 synopsis.
• Josh Dallas isn't listed at in the Cast and characters section?
• "James Whitmore, Jr." we don't do commas any more.
• USS Missouri -> USS Missouri.
• Same for Arizona.
• No need to link funeral.
• You pipe link Frederick E. O. Toye back to Fred Toye which then redirects back to Frederick E. O. Toye. Just link it without piping.
• Don't link Christmas.
• Ep 13, no need to relink Manning.
• Don't link cancer, Paris or "American citizenship".
• Nor "pirates".
• Koʻolau Range, not Koʻolau Range.
• Several gaps in the show (i.e. not weekly), any reasons for that?
• "September September 20, 2010 and " subtract one September and add a comma after 2010.
• "Peter M. Lenkov with" comma before with.
• Link Len Wiseman first time round.
• "directed by thirteen different directors" rapid and jarring repeat of "direct".
• "on May 15, 2011 CBS announced " comma after 2011.
• "on February 8, 2010 to " ditto.
• "on March 1, 2010 as" same.
• "be cast on March 5, 2011 cast " same, and cast...cast is jarring.
• "On December 22, 2010 it was" comma after 2010.
• "On September 3, 2010 it" likewise.
• "original series" is piped to a redirect.
• "the 10 pm" -> "the 10 p.m."
• "May 16, 2011 at the" comma after 2011.
• "a 3.9/11 ratings share among adults 18-49." is there a link for all of us who don't understand 3.9/11 ratings share? And should be an en-dash in that 18–49.
• 18-49 problem occurs at least twice more.
• Remove all the # from the table.
• What is Live+7?
• Air date column doesn't sort correctly.
• "Home Video Release" V->v, R->r.
• Spaced hyphens in reference titles should be spaced en-dashes per MOS:DASH.
• Year ranges in ref titles should use en-dash too.

That's my first pass, hope you find it helpful. I'll put the article on hold while we go through these. The Rambling Man (Staying alive since 2005!) 19:15, 16 August 2019 (UTC)

@The Rambling Man: Thanks for reviewing this article. I believe I've fixed most of the issues. Production codes are out of order on purpose. They refer to the order in which the episodes were produced so for example what aired as episode 3 was the second episode to be produced or what aired as episode four was actually the fifth to be produced. They can be verified here (season 1 would be at the very bottom) and I can add that as a source into the article if needed? As for the gaps in the show no rhyme or reason that explains every single gap, most shows take breaks around major holidays so that might explain a few. As for others perhaps the network decided to air a special or sports game, etc. in place of the series that night. Networks also purposefully skip a few weeks here and there so that the season airs all the way through May and will often air repeats those weeks. I added a link to ratings share which should hopefully help explain any reader confusion there. Live +7 refers to people who watch the series live and within 7 days (via DVR, online streaming, etc.). Can add that to the article if needed but feel it's partially self-explanatory as it's followed by "viewers (millions)." I made the airdate and episode title columns unsortable as I feel they don't aid in navigation of the table. TheDoctorWho (talk) 00:24, 17 August 2019 (UTC)

Production code source definitely needs to be added otherwise not sure how we verify those! I didn't know if "Live+7" meant something like a specific channel, it's certainly a term I've never heard of, so yes, notes on that would be helpful too.

@The Rambling Man: Production codes are now sourced and a note has been added explaining Live +7. TheDoctorWho (talk) 01:55, 20 August 2019 (UTC)

Hello TheDoctorWho, I've had a chance to go over the article again and am satisfied that it clearly exceeds the requirements necessary for GA quality, so I'll promote. Cheers. The Rambling Man (Staying alive since 2005!) 07:25, 22 August 2019 (UTC)
