All of the episodes of this series fail the [[WP:EPISODE|notability guidelines for television episodes]]. The way for these articles to be improved is through the inclusion of [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style (writing about fiction)|real-world information]] from [[Wikipedia:Reliable sources|reliable sources]] to assert notability. That is unlikely to happen, and these only have certain bad aspects (though all may not apply) like containing overly long or one sentence [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style (writing about fiction)#Fair use|plot summaries]], [[WP:TRIVIA|trivia]], and [[WP:NOT#DIR|quotes]]. Per that, they need to be a small part of this list. |

If there are no objections, these will be redirected soon. Otherwise, discussion will take place here. Please remember that this is not a vote. If you [[WP:ILIKEIT|like]] the information, that's fine and dandy, but your opinion doesn't really count towards anything. The only opinions that do count are ones that that lean towards the inclusion of real world information. [[User:TTN|TTN]] 23:25, 1 October 2007 (UTC) |

New layouts
I've been trying to rework the trivia sections on each episode page to hopefully make them a little better organized. I moved the pop culture parodies and other references into a section called Cultural References, and made a section called Animated Cameos listing the famous characters (Speedy Gonzales, Popeye, etc.) that appear in certain episodes since they're a significant part of the show and probably deserve special mention. I also created a section called Notes and Inside References for behind-the-scenes trivia, references to other episodes, character info that is revealed, and other interesting details and oddities.Raymondluxuryacht 22:01, 2 April 2006 (UTC)
Just to say thanks - Nice lay out. Tom C 7/4/06
Production codes
Some of the production codes seem to keep getting switched around a LOT. Could we possibly find out the true production codes for each episode, and then keep them there?Raymondluxuryacht 04:13, 20 January 2006 (UTC)
Comedy Central's website lists "Captain Hero's Marriage Pact" as 205 and "Clum Babies" as 204. Since that's the closest thing we have to an official source, I've changed the episode list to reflect that. TV.com lists them the other way around, but I've found that site, while a good source of info, is not 100% accurate.Raymondluxuryacht 08:40, 20 January 2006 (UTC)
The second episode of February is simliar. When I put the info for A Tale of Two Cows, I put the production number on comedy central's website. --Evildevil 16:30, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
Star Wars music
Starting from, and most frequently used in Episode 12: "Captain Hero's Marriage Pact", I'm very sure the orchestraic string music that plays in the background comes from the love theme in Star Wars Episode II. Either that or I'm a very nerdy nerd. Can anyone else confirm and maybe insert it as trivia? --61.6.203.213 12:54, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
- Don't know. This would be a great bit of trivia if we could confirm it. Unfortunately, I'm not enough of a Star Wars expert to offer any insight on this; I only get the really obvious references.Raymondluxuryacht 06:32, 30 December 2005 (UTC)
I just rewatched ep. 12, and the music definitely isn't the "Across the Stars" love theme. It is very similar to Leia's theme, though without any sort of input from the music director I don't think it's worth adding as trivia (since it'd be POV). Virogtheconq 01:14, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
Season 2 over?
Season 2 is over, as proven by the Season 2 Rewind, already in progress on Comdey Central. Just thought I'd mention that, seeing as that 'To Be Announced' makes it look like more episodes are already underway for this season. ~JeramiahWindsor (20:23 EST. December 29, 2005)
- The season is only half over. The Season 2 Rewind was just showing all of the Season 2 episodes so far. The show's been given a full thirteen-episode order, and that's not including "Terms of Endearment", which is supposed to air as well.Raymondluxuryacht 06:32, 30 December 2005 (UTC)
Wikiproject: Episode Lists
I was thinking about formatting this page so that it fits the formats set forth by Wikipedia:WikiProject List of Television Episodes. Please see List of Star Trek: Voyager episodes for an example. This project would involve moving each episode's information into individual articles, and creating a more visually appealing table as the main page. I can easily get screenshots for this, so it's probable that this will look really good, and make the main page a little less crowded. Does anyone object? tiZom 20:47, 30 December 2005 (UTC)
- It wouldn't be a bad idea at all. This seems to be one of the fastest growing TV pages on Wikipedia. It's obvious based on the activity here that the show certainly has a large following, and people have all kinds of info to contribute about each episode. I'd say it's definitely warranted.Raymondluxuryacht 22:44, 30 December 2005 (UTC)
- A 'yes' vote from me. Example here?--naz 05:23, 4 January 2006 (UTC)
- I'll go ahead and start creating some of the other episode pages. If someone can come up with a good table for the master episode list, we'd be in great shape.Raymondluxuryacht 06:38, 4 January 2006 (UTC)
- The episode pages are done, and I put up a rudimentary table on the mainpage. If anyone could help out by providing screenshots for the table, I'd be much obliged. :)Raymondluxuryacht 10:19, 4 January 2006 (UTC)
- Wow, that was fast. I'm still new-ish to Wikipedia and I find it amazing how relatively easy things are done around here. I have the first season DVD-quality episodes loaned to a friend but as soon as I get them back, I'll upload some pictures for the list and individual episodes, along with other information for the infobox. Again, wow. --naz 13:26, 4 January 2006 (UTC)
- I removed the image placeholders temporarily, mainly because it seems this page is visited often, and it just doesn't look that great to have them there. It is very easily undone, as I just turned the Image placeholders into comments. Once you've got those screenshots, you can upload them, and replace my comments. I don't know of any format for naming the images, so do whatever, just remember to keep them at 100px on this page. :o) tiZom 16:21, 4 January 2006 (UTC)
- I had no idea Wikipedia has auto image-resizing capabilites. Ah well, live and learn. Season 2 images are now up. --naz 13:50, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
- Any idea when you can get the Season 1 screenshots up? I've got some low-quality pics that I could put up there temporarily if you want...
Looks great, btw :o) tiZom 20:18, 5 January 2006 (UTC)- Looks beautiful... thanks!!! tiZom 15:50, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
- Not a problem. --naz 15:13, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

Lost font
would the "Lost" style logo from the s3 midseason finale be a better image placeholder than the DT house? I want opinions before I go ahead and change them. --Evildevil 03:35, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
- I think it would be.Raymondluxuryacht 03:40, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
All right. I'll make the change then. --Evildevil 04:03, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
And it's done. I added it to the Parking Space 2 and Charlette's Web eps too.--Evildevil 04:15, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
Fair use removal
The use of images not in compliance with our fair-use criteria or our policy on nonfree content is not appropriate, and the images have been removed. Please do not restore them. -Mask? 01:38, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Episode notability
All of the episodes of this series fail the notability guidelines for television episodes. The way for these articles to be improved is through the inclusion of real-world information from reliable sources to assert notability. That is unlikely to happen, and these only have certain bad aspects (though all may not apply) like containing overly long or one sentence plot summaries, trivia, and quotes. Per that, they need to be a small part of this list.
If there are no objections, these will be redirected soon. Otherwise, discussion will take place here. Please remember that this is not a vote. If you like the information, that's fine and dandy, but your opinion doesn't really count towards anything. The only opinions that do count are ones that that lean towards the inclusion of real world information. TTN 23:25, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
