No refs on the page for many years. I'm seeing mentions and database entries but nothing substantial which would meet the notability standards JMWt (talk) 10:34, 25 August 2023 (UTC)

:Among other things. Notability is very clear and I'm inviting User:JMWt to withdraw this nomination.-My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 20:43, 25 August 2023 (UTC)

::only the first and last of those could be considered substantial coverage in a RS, the others are simple mentions or in a blog.

::The first seems on point, more than half a page in a published book. The NY Times piece is in a section of daily reviews of TV movies, so arguably is just run-of-the-mill coverage which could be found of many TV movies.

::At best that's borderline. I'll let other editors consider whether the offered sources are enough for notabllity. JMWt (talk) 23:02, 25 August 2023 (UTC)

  • Keep as per the newspaper and book coverage identified in this discussion. The NYT piece is somewhat critical of the film so counts as an independent review and its not run of the mill as they don't review everything that is on, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 23:32, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
