– Despite the fact that this was a series on HBO, one of the biggest premium channels in the United States, a one season show should not be more significant over two albums that both have the same name as this show. 68.199.254.223 (talk) 01:48, 11 August 2017 (UTC) --Relisting.

  • Weak support. This is one of those cases where the two main aspects of WP:PRIMARYTOPIC are at odds. On the one hand, the cancelled series is certainly what I find most when I search for "The Brink"; on the other hand, the fact that it's also the most recent probably plays into that — plus, even just the first page of web search results includes various non-series things like a gallery in Montana and a lounge in Wisconsin, which I think is revealing. This move request probably would've been better raised a year or two down the road when we're a bit farther from the series, but I admit it's tough to imagine that a cancelled, single-season show will have enduring long-term notability and will greatly outweigh all other uses of the name, so I'll (weakly) support the move. ╠╣uw [talk] 10:25, 11 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Support same reasoning as ╠╣uw above. The cancelled TV show is very recent so naturally gets more hits, but long term none of these are particularly notable or encyclopaedic. In ictu oculi (talk) 15:04, 11 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Even cancelled it receives *97%* of the page view traffic.[1] The show was also on a major TV channel whereas both the albums were released on independent labels and don't seem to have garnered remotely comparable coverage in the sources. In fact I doubt The Brink (Alternative 4 album) is even notable, it's an album by a metal musician's side project.--Cúchullain t/c 17:36, 11 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
