Murder Police

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Canceled without airing a single episode. Not sure if an unaired show is notable in this case, but given the minimal content I doubt it. The only coverage I found dealt with Fox canning it and almost nothing else. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 00:44, 9 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep Program was ordered to series and is still likely to air somewhere (even if burned off on Netflix or Amazon or FXX), just not on Fox, and leaving a redlink in the year's schedule would assure a never ending cycle of deletion/recreation. Article is sourced as much as it can be anyways.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 02:08, 9 October 2013 (UTC)
 * So "keep it because it might maybe possibly be picked up later" and "keep because it'll make a hole"? WP:CRYSTAL and WP:LOSE. Try again. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 03:14, 9 October 2013 (UTC)
 * The TV Guide article listed within this says " the studio will try to find a new home for the series", so an official cancellation verdict has not been rendered, which is the same interpretation made on the schedule article. I'm just citing what's out there, not an opinion.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 06:36, 9 October 2013 (UTC)


 * Keep See Next Caller which also got canceled without airing a single episode. If Next Caller can stay on Wikipedia, Murder Police can too.--Steelbar (talk) 11:54, 9 October 2013 (UTC)

 * Incubate until it is confirmed that this is actually going somewhere.  Taylor Trescott  - my talk + my edits 23:19, 9 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep until determination has been reached on its (lack of) airing then keep if set to air or merge to List of television series canceled before airing an episode if completely abandoned.&mdash; Ɔ Ȿ ♭  இ   ☎ ℡ ☎  05:17, 10 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep notability is not temporary. Once it was produced, it was notable.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 00:19, 16 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:NTEMP. Once notable, always notable; there isn't a WP:BLP1E for TV shows and arguing "it was cancelled therefore it's not notable" is fallacious - "not existing" does not mean "no article allowed", as evidenced by Bigfoot, Ogopogo and Aurora (aircraft). - The Bushranger One ping only 15:23, 16 October 2013 (UTC)
