This article is on a Family Guy episode that is two months away from being aired, while also having no features that would make it a notable episode. The episode fails WP:GNG and even if the article were to have notability, the episode's article should be made around the air-date. Also the two references repeat the same information.

 * Delete - Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. Vorbee (talk) 17:23, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete - Not all Family Guy episodes are notable enough to have an individual article and at this stage there is no way of knowing if this one will be. Equally at 2 months out it is not even guaranteed it will be broadcast on the reported date, the title could change etc. Dunarc (talk) 19:26, 15 January 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep We don't need a crystal ball. We already have reliable coverage of the scheduled release from reliable sources. Filmed media aren't made the day of and we certainly don't have to wait for a notable project to be released before we include it. FloridaArmy (talk) 03:43, 16 January 2018 (UTC)
 * There was an earlier episode of Family Guy that was originally called "Brian dates a bitch". 2 weeks before airing it got a name change to "Boy dog meets girl dog". This article has shown no notability and should not be made 2 months before an air-date. Numerous changes could happen. Also, the episode could easily be a standard Family Guy episode that doesn't deserve its own article. AmericanAir88 (talk) 02:19, 17 January 2018 (UTC)
 * If it's notable it should. If the name changes the article gets updated. Names of things change all the time. FloridaArmy (talk) 02:26, 17 January 2018 (UTC)


 * Keep with regret. Despite my opinions on the matter, the consensus appears to be that all Family Guy episodes are notable.  There's enough coverage of this one (and March is close enough) that there's no reason to delete an article that will be re-created in the near future. power~enwiki ( π,  ν ) 21:42, 20 January 2018 (UTC)
 * @power~enwiki I have no idea where you're getting the idea that there's any consensus on the matter of each Family Guy episode being notable. Please, have a look at recent seasons and you'll notice that I have been deleting the articles which have no content beyond plot summaries and there are some other users doing the same. -- Molandfreak  (talk,   contribs,  email) 01:31, 22 January 2018 (UTC)
 * I picked three seasons arbitrarily (3, 7, and 13), and all the individual episodes appear to have stand-alone pages. power~enwiki ( π, ν ) 01:38, 22 January 2018 (UTC)
