Excess Baggage (Australian TV series)Excess Baggage (TV programme) – sole TV series or, more appropriately, a reality programme, which bears this title; analogous to Excess Baggage (radio programme).     Roman Spinner (talkcontribs) 17:15, 22 July 2018 (UTC)Reply

  • Oppose. It's a reality show with 33 episodes. I don't think there's enough to support using (TV programme) for it/them instead of (TV series), but I support removing the redundant DAB "Australian". jamacfarlane (talk) 19:31, 22 July 2018 (UTC)Reply
  • Support move to Excess Baggage (TV series). The current article contains unnecessary disambiguation as there is no other existing TV show with this title (as per Excess baggage (disambiguation)). Then the only question is "TV series" vs. "TV program" (note: "TV programme" is only preferred for British TV series, not Australian ones...), and this one seems to be a reality TV show with "continuing story elements" which makes it a true "TV series". --IJBall (contribstalk) 21:39, 22 July 2018 (UTC)Reply
  • Support removing "Australian" as unnecessary. Neutral as to "programme" or "series". Station1 (talk) 22:38, 22 July 2018 (UTC)Reply
  • Move to Excess Baggage (TV series) because we use "series" for reality TV (being an episodic, narrative structure per WP:NCTV). The country is extraneous currently. -- Netoholic @ 08:41, 23 July 2018 (UTC)Reply
  • Move to Excess Baggage (TV series) - unnecessary to include the country disambiguation. Although the correct spelling for Australian television would be "program" per RfC here, I agree with others that "series" is more appropriate anyway -- Whats new?(talk) 06:14, 24 July 2018 (UTC)Reply
