[edit] The Visitor (TV series)

On second thought, this is a forgotten television series which only existed for one season on the Fox network. Althought I remember it, most people never heard of it. Plus I want to test this AfD thing. Roman Soldier 20:42, 17 December 2005 (UTC)

• comment quoting nominator... "forgotten television series...existed for one season...Fox...most people never heard of it", same statements can be used to describe Firefly, which became Serenity...FYI  J\/\/estbrook       21:06, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
• Keep This program was a classic - though short lived. It has plenty of webpages devoted to it. And it is regularily still aired around the world; it's certainly not forgotten! There's a (very incomplete) list of world-wide airings over the last eight years. Really the page needs to be expanded! Nfitz 22:14, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
• Comment I too enjoyed the series, and it was one of the first hour long shows I had ever had the attention span for, but I don't know if it is notable enough for Wikipedia. Although many short lived television shows develop cult followings, this one doesn't appear to have one. Roman Soldier 22:45, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. I've made a small edit now now the proposer is not the only author. We probably need to do some disambiguation here. DJ Clayworth 22:47, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
• Comment I'm willing to withdraw my nomination if we can get some more material on the page about the series. Anyone else who can remember this series from so long ago please correct my work.
• Keep — I remember this series. The article could use a little cleanup. — RJH 21:09, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
• I know that this television series has been the subject of independently sourced published works. I searched for and read a few of them a year or so ago when I was trying to find out what the series was actually about. ☺ People have even considered it notable enough to have written and published additional episodes of their own.
