Article claims no notability for this "reality TV Show". A search found no usable sources. Most of article simply lists episodes; most of the text appears in the lead, consisting largely of a commercial-sounding quote (and at 58 words, it may well be a copyvio) with the article's only reference.

- Comment: It is a pity that the article currently suffers from isues, but they would seem addressable. We do have enough sources speaking about it and offering enough contextual content so that a neutral and encyclopdic article could be built and maintained.

- Keep and fix per WP:TVSERIES: the sources noted by MichaelQSchmidt show that this a long-running series that's aired in a number of countries. --Arxiloxos (talk) 15:40, 4 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Withdrawn (nom) - OK, I can agree with Schmidt and Arxiloxos that WP:UGLY, WP:ATD and WP:TVSERIES apply. I'll cut the offending bits from the article and tag it up for fixing. Chiswick Chap (talk) 07:07, 5 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Will myself go WP:TVSERIES. It seems this one did stop for a while, but was reborn and continued at least through late 2011, with plenty of re-runs internationally. But yes... it will need work. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 00:36, 6 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
