As a huge fan of the show, I would love to review this. I am glad to see people working on articles related to the show. Aoba47 (talk) 05:58, 24 May 2016 (UTC)

Lead
a [[Primetime Emmy Award” for Outstanding Individual Achievement in Animation
 * Add that the episode debuted on Cartoon Network
 * Done.-- Gen. Quon   (Talk)   15:21, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
 * For the last sentence of the first paragraph, I would add the roles that Isaak and Jones played in the episode. Something like: “The episode debuted on March 5, 2015 and guest stars Chris Isaak as King Huge and Matt L. Jones as a bear named Seven.” I suggest this just to clarity that the men are not playing themselves on the show. With these changes, you can removed the (voiced by…) in the second paragraph.
 * Done.-- Gen. Quon   (Talk)   15:21, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Give some sort of indication on the reasons behind the mixed reviews. Since it is the lead, you do not need to go into great detail, but provide some indication to the reader.
 * How does that look?-- Gen. Quon   (Talk)   15:21, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
 * I corrected a minor error with a comma, but otherwise looks great. Thank you for making the correction. Aoba47 (talk) 19:40, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Add a comma between the words “episode” and “Herpich”
 * Done.-- Gen. Quon   (Talk)   15:21, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Change “an Outstanding Individual Achievement in Animation Emmy Award” to “a [[Primetime Emmy Award” for Outstanding Individual Achievement in Animation”.
 * Change the final sentence to the following to fix problems with sentence structure and flow: (For his work on the episode, Herpich won a [[Primetime Emmy Award” for Outstanding Individual Achievement in Animation; this was the series’ third win in the category.)

Plot

 * Removed the (voiced by…) as it is redundant.
 * Done.-- Gen. Quon   (Talk)   15:21, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Great job with the synopsis; it is direct and maintains an objective tone.
 * Thanks! :)-- Gen. Quon   (Talk)   15:21, 24 May 2016 (UTC)

Production

 * For the image subtitle, I would add “as Seven” for the same reasons stated in my above comments.
 * Done.-- Gen. Quon   (Talk)   15:21, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Image needs an alt.
 * Done.-- Gen. Quon   (Talk)   15:21, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
 * I am confused on the second half of the first sentence of the first paragraph. Here, you reference the episode as based on a “story” and the lead mentions the episode was based on an “outline”. This may be a minor comment, but make sure to stay consistent as I read both words as meaning two very different writing processes.
 * I tried to clarify. Story and outline, at least in my mind, are the same thing, but I see how that's not very clear, so I went with "outline".-- Gen. Quon   (Talk)   15:21, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
 * This was a minor note and it may just be how I read it; outline and story indeed are very similar so I see your point. Aoba47 (talk) 19:42, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Remove the comma in front of Steve Wolfhard
 * Done.-- Gen. Quon   (Talk)   15:21, 24 May 2016 (UTC)

Reception

 * In the first sentence, say “first aired” and add the network (Cartoon Network).
 * Done.-- Gen. Quon   (Talk)   15:21, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
 * For the second sentence say “The episode was viewed by…”
 * Done.-- Gen. Quon   (Talk)   15:21, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
 * For the second paragraph, I would add some sort of topic sentence to bring the ideas together such as (Critical reception to the episode was largely mixed.)
 * I just copied your idea, is that OK?-- Gen. Quon   (Talk)   15:21, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
 * You do not need to put the reference after each sentence. For this paragraph, you only need to use the reference when you are done and moving on to something new (so delete all the citations except for the one in the final sentence). Look at what you do for the following paragraph to see what I mean.
 * Done.-- Gen. Quon   (Talk)   15:21, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Fully introduce Andrew Tran. Where is he writing? Where is the review from?
 * I added that he is a writer for "Overmental".-- Gen. Quon   (Talk)   15:21, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
 * I would restructure this paragraph and make it clear that these ideas are coming from Tran’s review. Use more author tags (such as “he said…” or “he wrote…”).
 * I tried to add a few of those words in there.-- Gen. Quon   (Talk)   15:21, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Change “an Outstanding Individual Achievement in Animation Emmy Award” to “a [[Primetime Emmy Award” for Outstanding Individual Achievement in Animation” as I stated in my previous comments.
 * Done.-- Gen. Quon   (Talk)   15:21, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Add an apostrophe after the “s” in “series”
 * Done.-- Gen. Quon   (Talk)   15:21, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Change the final sentence to “an Annie Award for Outstanding Achievement, Storyboarding in an Animated TV/Broadcast Production” and make sure to reference this in the lead when you reference the Emmy win.
 * Done.-- Gen. Quon   (Talk)   15:21, 24 May 2016 (UTC)

 * , thank you so much for the review. How do these changes look?-- Gen. Quon   (Talk)   15:21, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
