The result was redirect to Adult Swim history under the redirect if someone finds the references to spin it back out and/or wants to merge it, but I don't see another relist changing this. Star Mississippi 02:32, 29 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. I'm all for removing articles whose notability can't be supported due to a lack of reliable/independent/secondary sources out there -- when that lack is more definitively established. I infer from TPH's "could only find" comment that (his) search was probably not definitive. There's so much tradition of having articles for any and all TV series that I'd be surprised if there really were only trivial mentions out there. TV series' notability is almost always supportable. It's probably more a matter of having the motivation to go out and find the refs and less a matter of them not being out there. It seems to be a better idea to give a little more time to find out more definitively if righteous sources really can be found (or not). 142.105.159.178 (talk) 06:48, 14 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Merge/redirect to Adult Swim per Wikipedia:Deletion policy#Alternatives to deletion. I did not find significant coverage in reliable sources about the subject. Cunard (talk) 04:51, 16 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Wow, you know a show's not notable when not even Cunard can find anything. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 03:03, 17 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
