I don't believe this article meets the GA criteria. Concerns were raised on the talk page back in 2009, but nobody has fixed them.

  1. The article uses some problematic sources - TV.com and IMDB, and what makes this reliable? Or this?
  2. The article contains a few unsourced statements.
  3. There are no critical reviews to be found in the Reception section. I think those are pretty much required for an episode article.
  4. The two images fail WP:NFCC#8.

In closure, this article just doesn't meet the GA criteria. We have a lot of very high-quality episode articles on Wikipedia, but this isn't one of them at the moment. Taylor Trescott - my talk + my edits 00:39, 27 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I note I had looked at this article as part of a GA sweeps thing in 2008, where there were a lot of looser reqs for GA as their are now. I agree the images now fail with newer standards. TV.com is fine as long as it is one of the listed site editors, and the imdb parts can be replaced with actual news about the nominations. (But this points that the references are not formatted for today's requirements). If the episode was nominated for an award it like has critical reception out there to support that, but that does need to be found; though I do note that there's no really a requirement for an episode to have reception as secondary sources can come from other means to make the episode notable. I do agree now it fails GA and would take some work to get back there. --MASEM (t) 15:38, 27 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
