Kicked in the Nuts

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I cannot find any basis for notability on this. It's been flagged as needing references for almost five years, and only has two. One reference is a college newspaper article on a different topic (interviewing one of the co-creators, Mike Henry) with only one sentence on this show ("Henry and his brother Patrick also created ‘Kicked in the Nuts,” a popular and well-received entry in 2003 for Channel101.com, a short film-oriented Web site.") The other is a dead-link with no archive on the wayback machine. I independently found one other passing mention: a single sentence in the obituary for the other co-creator Patrick Henry ("The pair produced a list of short films and the web series “Kicked in the Nuts,” a spoof on hidden camera shows."). Apart from that, nada.

The fact that it was alluded to in a Family Guy episode would initially suggest that it was notable enough, if it was referred to in a mainstream TV show... until you realize that the episode that referred to it was itself written by the Kicked in the Nuts co-creators.

It's been marked as needing sources for almost five years. I don't think it's going to get any; I certainly can't find any. And given that it's an Internet-based show, any sources would be likely to show up on the Internet.

I was going to take a stab at improving it, but apart from an infobox and an external link to IMDB, I don't see much of a way to do so, There simply isn't much of anything written about it; which is another way of saying it does not meet notability standards. TJRC (talk) 22:34, 8 August 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete I believe this is better considered as a short-film and not a "web series". Regardless, there is inadequate sourcing (though it is on Youtube). power~enwiki ( π,  ν ) 20:04, 14 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete There isn’t much about this series I could find, imo lacks WP:GNG. 1989 (talk) 20:27, 14 August 2019 (UTC)
