The Jet Benny Show

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

A seemingly obscure film that does not appear to pass the WP:GNG. There are currently no reliable sources in the article, and I was unable to find much in the way of reviews. Rotten Tomatoes includes no professional reviews for the film. The best I was able to find was a very short blurb in the NYT regarding its VHS release in 1987, which can be found here. I would hesitate to call it significant coverage due to its short length, though, and it is certainly not enough to pass the WP:GNG or WP:NFILM on its own. I was unable to find any other coverage outside of very brief namedrops. As nobody involved with the film appears to be notable themselves, I could not find a valid article for a redirect.

 * Comment - There appears to be other 1980s coverage in Newsday, the Houston Chronicle, the San Francisco Chronicle, American Cinematographer ... PQ is directing me to my library's homepage, so unable to tell right now if they're also "blurbs" or all the same wire stuff. Caro7200 (talk) 00:25, 8 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Comment I thought there might be more print media reviews from back then, hence why I brought it to AFD rather than just WP:PRODing it. But yeah, the NYT blurb is the only one I was personally able to find and view. Rorshacma (talk) 00:57, 8 September 2022 (UTC)


 * Delete Best I could find was Benny "The Jet" Rodriguez refs. Delete for lack of sources. Oaktree b (talk) 01:35, 8 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Here is the Newsday review: I am willing to send the nominator the American Cinematographer item if they are on Discord. Those two are SIGCOV. The rest are blurbs—Newspapers.com mostly turns up the same syndicated column in dozens of papers, with Newsday being its own reviewer. Sammi Brie  (she/her • t • c) 07:35, 8 September 2022 (UTC)

 * Weak Keep based on the print sources. This seems to marginally pass WP:GNG with multiple news sources covering it significantly, in the sense that they are "address[ing] the topic directly and in detail". W 42  16:46, 29 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Weak keep I've stricken my !vote above; if we have print sources, it should pass GNG, just barely, but passes. Thank you for finding those. Oaktree b (talk) 19:09, 29 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep, does appear to just squeak over the GNG line. Horse Eye&#39;s Back (talk) 05:49, 30 September 2022 (UTC)
