 * Keep The overall general schedule is encyclopedic . What would not be encyclopedic  is a list week by week of exactly what programs there were--that's what TV guide means, not this. Any TV guide providing only this sort of summary would be laughable.  FWIW, we have keep many lists such as this--I know some people would rather achieve consistency by deleting them also.

 * Keep I agree totally with DGG on this one. My only quibble with it might be a question of whether the season in the Philippines runs during an entire calendar year, since the U.S. season typically is a September to May (or August) thing.  Lists such as 2010–11 United States network television schedule and 2009–10 United States network television schedule are a means of navigation to the articles about the individual shows.  Most of these have an historical purpose, such as 1970–1971 United States network television schedule, rather than a present one.  Mandsford 15:01, 12 December 2010 (UTC)
 * (Edit conflict from Mansford, but I guess it'll answer his question.) No vote/comment Unlike the U.S. or UK, there are no "programming seasons", at least as what is understood in American or British contexts: These are the types of Philippine TV programs in this regard:
 * Once a TV program ends, it's replaced by a new program never to be seen again except for special occasions or (very rare) re-runs. There are some few exemptions:
 * There are some TV programs that do have "seasons" but in almost all instances the next season begins following the last episode of the previous season.
 * Very few programs (excluding sport leagues) do have "seasons" in which they start->end at roughly the same time of the year but they're really few (mostly talent/singing/reality programs).
 * Still some fewer (than the previous example) programs do have seasons that start not immediately following the previous season's end but those are also mostly confined to reality programs.
 * Also to be considered are it's almost never a batch of TV programs end at the same time of the year, although some start at the same time but their length depends on TV ratings.
 * Point: It's pretty hard to come up with a "2010 Philippine network TV schedule" since not all programs end at the same time, and that turnover is pretty quick, although I'd assume it'll be relatively easy to find references. If any of the keepers would want to maintain such a list, it won't be as easy as the U.S. or UK articles. – HTD  ( ITN: Where no updates but is stickied happens. ) 15:11, 12 December 2010 (UTC)
 * If anyone is confused, here are some examples:
 * Most common instance: TV show that started and ended never to be seen again: Palibhasa Lalake aired from 1986 to 1998.
 * TV show where the next season starts immediately after the previous season ended: Love to Love: 12 seasons from 2003 to 2006.
 * In this example, all 12 seasons are not related to each other (essentially all 12 seasons were separate miniseries), nor were the cast the same, although perhaps the crew was identical.
 * TV show where the seasons run at the same time of the year: StarStruck: All seasons started from October-December and ends in February-March the following year.
 * TV show where the seasons did not start immediately after the previous one ended: Pinoy Big Brother (there no exact time of the year the season started/ended). – HTD  ( ITN: Where no updates but is stickied happens. ) 15:25, 12 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep in principle, this seems okay... but more info should be added to the article about how this schedule will change over time, as well as a source for the information. Esn (talk) 02:17, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
