Poorly sourced article about a dropped television pilot with no strong alternative claim to passing WP:TVSHOW. While this did get broadcast as a one-off special despite its failure to get picked up to series, that isn't an automatic free notability pass in and of itself -- it would still have to be shown to have WP:GNG-worthy reliable source coverage about it to establish its significance. But the only sources shown here are a single "pilot in production" press release from the producers and a Blogspot blog that isn't a reliable or notability-assisting source at all, and I can find absolutely nothing else on a WP:BEFORE search except glancing namechecks of its existence.
Nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt a failed pilot from having to have much better sourcing than this. Bearcat (talk) 14:44, 17 May 2023 (UTC)
