Seasons 2–11 being one-episode seasons?[edit]

Based on the full press release by TBS on The Futon Critic, Angie Tribeca will have a 10-episode 10-season order:

Angie Tribeca: The Launch
Season 1 - Starting Sunday, Jan. 17
Binge watching is the new normal, but for such a haunting, raw series like Angie Tribeca, one binge won't be enough. So TBS is going to give viewers the ultimate binge experience: a 25-hour marathon of the entire season played five times in a row, Sunday, Jan. 17, at 9 p.m. (ET/PT) - Monday, Jan. 18, at 10 p.m. (ET/PT), with each episode running commercial-free. The first season will also be available across TBS On Demand, tbs.com, the Watch TBS mobile app and participating providers' platforms and apps. It's the biggest epic event since TV's last big epic event.
Seasons 2-11 - Available Mondays, beginning Jan. 25
After binging on Angie Tribeca's first season, viewers can start diving into seasons 2-11, each one consisting of a single episode that will allow viewers to experience the emotional highs of a season premiere and season finale in one powerful 30-minute package. Seasons 2-11 of Angie Tribeca are set to debut Mondays at 9:30 p.m. (ET/PT), starting Jan. 25, followed by availability across TBS's on-demand platforms. As if that weren't enough, each week's season premiere/finale on the linear network will be followed by an encore telecast from season 1 at 10 p.m. (ET/PT).
— From the full press release by TBS on The Futon Critic

Zap2it, however, has this on their coverage:

Starting at 9 p.m. ET/PT Jan. 17, TBS will run the show’s first 10 episodes — Season 1, per the release — continuously in a commercial-free, 25-hour marathon. “Seasons” 2 through 11 — in actuality, 10 more new episodes — will then air weekly at 10 p.m. Mondays starting Jan. 25.
— From Zap2it coverage

TBS seems to credit the further episodes (from season 1) as its own season (From the media deductions, though, it seems that this is a marketing ploy). I feel like editors must discuss on how the wiki article should credit those said episodes after the debacle on American Dad!. Should it follow the TBS structure or not?

There is no contradiction or confusion here, is there? The Futon Critic published the press release verbatim, and TVbytheNumbers summarized the contents. Both agree that TBS is planning to air 20 episodes. They want to call the first 10 episodes "season 1", which coincides with a usual season length of their other shows. Apparently they plan to call the next 10 episodes season 2 through 11. It remains to be seen (after they have aired) whether this is merely a strange marketing stunt (setting the record for number of renewed "seasons") or actually makes sense.–Dark Cocoa Frosting (talk) 12:50, 8 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Premiere marathon?[edit]

Any info on the premiere marathon? Most shows do not have marathons until the show is already in syndication...119.92.93.84 (talk) 01:53, 16 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"Angie Tribeca premiered on a 25-hour 10-episode marathon"

??????

25 hours marathon for the first season, which has 10 episodes, and each lasts 21 minutes??!!

10 x 21 minutes = 25 hours

-)

Fork episodes to a new page[edit]

Now that season 2 is premiering, it'd be a good idea to move episodes list to List of Angie Tribeca episodes. Coderzombie (talk) 16:38, 5 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Guest stars[edit]

Someone has been adding non-notable actors who played bit parts to the "guest stars" list, like Kira McLean and Adam Karst.

I'm not sure this list even needs to be there. The episode listing page seems to already have the guest stars actually credited in each episode. This page lists some of them as "Recurring cast" (including, e.g., John Michael Higgins, who's only in one episode), skips others entirely (like Kevin Pollak), and isn't in any particular order after season 1.

But if it is there, it shouldn't include anyone who isn't actually credited as a guest star or called one in a reliable source just because a publicist or rabid fan decides to edit this page. So, I'm going to remove the ones that aren't listed. --157.131.170.189 (talk) 06:14, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I also removed Tzi Ma—who actually isn't an unnotable actor like the other two, but still isn't credit as a guest star. I didn't add any of the many missing guest stars. While I was at it, I sorted the list by episode, and removed the trailing periods that were randomly on some entries but not others. --157.131.170.189 (talk) 06:24, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Joe Perry[edit]

While fixing the mess that was the "Guest stars" section, and updating the entire article to reflect season 4, User:Btpowers91 changed Mayor Joe Perry to Vice President Joe Perry].

The character is the mayor in seasons 1-3, and the VP only in season 4. On top of that, his wife is still credited as "Katy Perry, Mayor Perry's wife". Crediting him only as Vice President is inaccurate and confusing

I'm not sure whether the best phrasing is "Mayor/Vice President" or "Mayor (later Vice President) or Vice President (originally Mayor) or something else, but, going on the precedent of "Det./Lt. Jason Jay Geils", I'm going with the first; feel free to change it if anyone disagrees. --157.131.170.189 (talk) 09:15, 6 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Expansion[edit]

This article is almost a stub. But I think part of the problem is that almost everything worth saying about the show is so obvious that it's hard to source.

For example, anyone watching a few episodes, looking at the season promos, or checking out the clips on the website will immediately see that guest stars (including frequent stunt casting, like the former boy band members playing Boypocalypse Wow and Detective Green) are a major facet of the show. (In fact, it's even implied by the current state of this article, half of which is devoted to the list of guest stars…) But I don't think the producers ever officially announced that fact, and none of the (admittedly few) reviews I've skimmed quite say it in a way that would count as verification.

Similarly, I think it's pretty obvious that the article need more than a tiny paragraph for the Plot section, and a synopsis of the setting (and arc plot, when relevant) for each season. But the important things are, e.g., season 4 visiting a different TV drama genre every episode, which again aren't mentioned in official statements or reviews, again because it's too obvious to mention (they even talk about which genre they're heading into during most of the episodes…), which usually isn't a good fit for Wikipedia.

Even the character names are unsourceable. It's hard to find references saying that DJ Tanner is named after the Full House dad, Jean Nate after the cosmetics line, and so on for nearly every character on the show, because they're all such obvious jokes. It would be _worth_ having this information (e.g., not every reader will know who Joe Perry or Dr. Zaius are), but can we say that without sources?

Without any of that information, what is there to say about this show, beyond a short blurb, a long cast list, and a link to an episode list? --157.131.170.189 (talk) 09:39, 6 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
