Found only passing mentions and name-drops in people who were on the show. WP:NOTINHERITED. Seems to have been too short-lived and too under-publicized for any RS coverage to surface. Deprodded without comment Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 20:58, 25 April 2022 (UTC)

- Keep Don't understand this one; based on a very popular movie and though short-lived, still comfortably meets WP:N as a spin-off of a notable film series on its face (we're at the very least not deleting this because Friday (franchise) can also take it in). Advising the nominator that just because it aired on an all-filler channel now doesn't mean that N expires because where it aired in 2007 was part of a diverse schedule, and that instead of semi-automated prodding, redirects to list-of or franchise articles and notifications to interested editors are highly advised before taking items to AfD.

- Notability is WP:NOTINHERITED though. Just because a film is notable doesn't mean that every adaptation is by default. This could be merged into Friday (franchise). I checked Proquest and Newspapers.com on this one, and found only passing mentions at best. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 01:36, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
- Merge to Friday (franchise)#Friday: The Animated Series (2007). I couldn't find much - surprisingly there's 2 weak references in the Italian version. Nfitz (talk) 05:45, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
- Keep Not the most substantive of sources, but I found TV Guide and Screen Rant, which is at least enough to show that the topic is notable and suited for Wikipedia. Could possibly be merged with Friday (franchise) if consensus goes that direction, but the very least I think suggesting this be deleted is way out of line.—Mythdon (talk • contribs) 02:15, 4 May 2022 (UTC)
- The TV Guide source is just a one-sentence directory listing. That's hardly significant coverage. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 02:22, 4 May 2022 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: The ScreenRant entry is potentially acceptable, but no other users have offered solid evidence of notability.

- Merge to Friday (franchise)#Friday: The Animated Series (2007) - There does not appear to be enough coverage in reliable sources for its own article, but what little bit there is on it should be covered on the main article on the franchise. Rorshacma (talk) 06:44, 10 May 2022 (UTC)
