Comment: The series may be notable, but the sourcing used is well short of the WP:GNG. Most of the sources are from Rotten Tomatoes scores which isn't quite supportive of WP:NFILM. There needs to be multiple reliable sources with significant coverage about the subject matter. ＶＲＸＣＥＳ (talk) 03:28, 11 December 2024 (UTC)
