Here we have the second season of The Office, which is generally regarded – by fans and critics – as the best year the show ever produced, myself included. I believe this topic meets the requirements as it is a listing of all the episodes that aired during the television series' second season, which limits it to a well-defined scope. The articles follow a solid formation and bear close structural resemblance to each other. In addition, the individual episode pages read as clearly related articles meant to be viewed in a series, but also stand on their own and present their information without expecting the reader to understand the topic as a whole. Some of the articles have been promoted for a long time, such as the main season page, which was promoted to FA in 2008. However, never fear, for I have worked on it tirelessly to bring it up to speed (Check out this comparison). The same goes for about half the episodes, which were promoted about four years ago. But again, I have worked tirelessly to improve them (Here's a few more examples). --Gen. Quon (Talk) 04:14, 25 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support Completely covered. —Andrewstalk 06:04, 25 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support but what's with the choice of image? Nergaal (talk) 17:26, 25 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    I've picked a different actor/actress for each season. Krasinski for the second, since the seasonal arc was largely about his character's struggle. Season three is of Rashida Jones, four is of Melora Hardin, five is of Rainn Wilson, six is of Jenna Fischer, seven is of Steve Carell, and eight is of Ed Helms. Hope that clarifies.--Gen. Quon (Talk) 00:12, 26 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    I don't know, I'd rather more Hardin. GRAPPLE X 20:21, 31 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    I maintain that the biggest sin the show ever did was writing off Hardin's character.--Gen. Quon (Talk) 02:48, 1 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Support. All looks in order to me. GRAPPLE X 20:21, 31 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - topic well covered but the FL at the head of the topic has three dead links and tables which don't comply with WP:ACCESS, plus the lack of alt text (these are current requirements of a FL). I would hate to see the topic demoted in the next month when the list is demoted for these failures (plus other much more trivial issues). The Rambling Man (talk) 17:56, 2 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Thanks for the heads up. I fixed the dead links, fixed (I believe) the chart, added alt text, and beefed up the lede. How does it look now?--Gen. Quon (Talk) 20:01, 2 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    Marvellous, thanks for adopting my comments so quickly! The Rambling Man (talk) 20:18, 2 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    No problem! I hope I addressed everything properly.--Gen. Quon (Talk) 03:39, 3 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
