This article was tagged as a hoax but apparently existed but the only sources I could find for this TV show are blogs and IMDb and concern how shabby and unprofessional the production team was. When I tried to look at one of the sources listed, my browser gave me a warning that it was a phishing site. I think this show doesn't meet our notability standards. Existing isn't enough.

• Delete per nom. Minor production in niche online platform, not seeing any coverage at all in reliable sources. --Paul_012 (talk) 07:10, 5 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. Even if it were real and notable, the amount of fake information in the article makes it unsalvageable. Gonnym (talk) 08:33, 5 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete as the one who tried to CSD: I'm now understanding that it's not a hoax (that the show exists, at least), but there's not enough reliable sources here to build a proper article. Some relevant comments by the creator here and here. — Bilorv (talk) 09:24, 5 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete: As creator of the page and as a follower of the initial episodes of Tex Brown that I waited to watch diligently, I think the initial episodes were trully impressive and I held great hopes of an immense success even an adoption by a bigger series and movies channel as a rerun. But alas the background disagreements even while filming the episodes and resigning of key actors including the lead role actor Tripp Ali became a true drama of bickering between the actors and the director and his management. Sad as it is, Tex Brown missed the opportunity of becoming an iconic series with the gay and gay-friendly communities, such a great story line and frankly wonderful acting of the lead role by Tripp Ali. In retrospect I would also support deleting our Wikipedia page due to lack of notability that it could have had under different circumstances. werldwayd (talk) 14:44, 5 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

For the sake of promoting the discussion, a producer of the show has left comments on the talk page of Tex Brown article See here and has requested that we reinstate the earlier deleted text as more factual and representative of the show than what we have now. I don't know if it will have a bearing on the final concencus here, but it is worthy of consideration at least. werldwayd (talk) 14:13, 6 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete this article is an absolute mess, mainly expanded by one user (sockpuppet) with very poor grammar and spelling. Now that I look at it, there's no evidence of notability either. wizzito | say hello! 05:28, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
