 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Delete Incredibly non-notable CN block of shorts even the CN'crufters didn't see fit to create an article about, and the 'I kinda think they removed it 'cause of the swears and drugs' writing is painful and likely untrue (the test-pattern ratings did it in).

 * Delete. Does not meet the general notability guideline. --Inother (talk) 17:30, 12 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Oppose - This is programming which was broadcast on Cartoon Network. And there are articles of shows related to this. And incidentally, we don't delete stubs due to needing writing improvement or because more references are needed. None above appear to dispute it was broadcast on a major cable network. Sofixit comes immediately to mind... - jc37 17:59, 12 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment The writing makes it sound like it was a hoax though. I don't remember this airing at all, and the only sources in the article are commissions for the program's imaging, not actual press releases from the network talking about the show and what it's about. When the body of the article admits that that " (while) shorts have since reappeared via YouTube, a significant portion of them remain elusive", we're not exactly in the position of SOFIXIT, but on a search for sources that might not be there for a show that aired less than four weeks. I've known blocks on Nickelodeon that have lasted longer, in comparison. Finally, we are not required to be the official repository for everything with a title ever aired on Cartoon Network; that is not the purpose of the encyclopedia.

 * Did you actually do that "...a search for sources that might not be there for a show that aired less than four weeks"? It doesn't sound like it in your comments. I tried google and was at the very least able to establish that it wasn't a hoax (unless they were rather thorough and fooled quite a few more than I...). Again, due diligence trumps stating "delete" in a vaccuum. - jc37 19:48, 12 April 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete. I've found one possible reliable source (Cartoon Brew) verifying that this show existed and aired on Cartoon Network in 2005, so it's definitely not a hoax, but beyond that... nothing. The creators don't have WP articles and we don't really have anything about this show besides the fact that the show was made, was aired, and an episode list. Therefore, since there doesn't seem to be anything else we can say about it... delete.


 * Delete - Multiple searches found nothing. There's not going to be much on the show since it only lasted under a month and at times, kids shows also don't get that much attention but obviously the former is the main explanation. SwisterTwister   talk  02:26, 26 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete as above - I'll also note that merely being broadcast is no guarantee of notability. Neutralitytalk 03:52, 28 April 2015 (UTC)
