Rockbottom NeoManhatten

Now that the show is back in production...

Do we need the "Do not change to 'was'" note?--CreecregofLife (talk) 18:40, 9 March 2022 (UTC)

It's a hidden comment - no need to remove it as it will become relevant when the show is cancelled again. Barry Wom (talk) 09:18, 10 March 2022 (UTC)

Fair enough, thank you--CreecregofLife (talk) 06:07, 11 March 2022 (UTC)

Adult sitcom?

Should we make the show an "adult animated" sitcom in the lead section? RapMonstaXY (talk) 10:50, 25 October 2022 (UTC)

I think there's an argument to be made for it by looking at the age ratings. On Amazon Prime in the USA, two of the seasons are rated TV-14. In the UK, most seasons are rated 12 and a few episodes are rated 15 (meaning they cannot be legally rented or purchased by anyone under 16). So it's certainly not a children's show.
