Consider this a test case: the GNG notice has been on this page for years, so.. House might be a notable TV series, but individual episodes cannot surely be automatically notable. We have a huge amount of House trivia including lists of episodes, lists of characters, summaries of the plot of individual seasons and so on, surely we do not need to have additional detail about individual episodes. WP:TVEP states that "..it is likely that each individual episode of a television series will not be notable on its own, simply because there are not enough secondary sources available". Quite. WP:PLOT. We then delete all TV episode pages which do not have RS showing individual notability. JMWt (talk) 09:43, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep/merge. Individual episode articles including this one are notable since significant coverage in reliable sources (including reviews) exist. But if the articles are not maintained, they should be merged. So merger discussions should happen at season/series talk pages, not AfD. -- Wikipedical (talk) 20:11, 20 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
