Melody Rules

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Unsourced, unotable, and poorly-worded. Yes, this series is much-derided by New Zealanders, but due to a general lack of sources in Gooogle News archives as well as virtually no information available about the series, I feel this article should get the axe.

 * Keep It's somewhat more difficult to find references for shows from 1993, right before the Internet became widespread, but the show seems to have been legendarily bad, and is still remembered as "atrocious", one of TV's "disasters", "cringeworthy", "awful", etc. Much-derided is notable in and of itself.  Mandsford (talk) 12:42, 23 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep We have articles for Turn-On, South of Sunset, The Trouble with Tracy and Pink Lady and Jeff, all equally awful, all of which aired on national television networks. It meets both the 'it was nationally televised' and 'it was critically derided' standards quite easily, and though the pre-Internet existance doesn't help, the above links found by Mandsford certainly help add to a keep case.

 * Keep per above - bad films are often notable; notoriety equals notability in this case. Bearian (talk)


 * Keep - The Google news search results show that this program seems to have burned its way into the minds of New Zealanders as one of the worst television shows to have ever. This article has one of the cast members really ripping into it. -- Whpq (talk) 14:49, 26 April 2010 (UTC)
