– As per several recent RM precedents (e.g. Eve (U.S. TV series), Street Legal (Canadian TV series), Bodyguard (UK TV series), etc.), under WP:NCTV it is generally more WP:RECOGNIZABLE to disambiguate two TV shows with the same title from different nations with "by country" disambiguation, rather than with "by year" disambiguation. That is the situation in this case as well. --IJBall (contribstalk) 07:07, 21 November 2018 (UTC)--Relisting. B dash (talk) 14:57, 1 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support - per nom. Should maybe add a note of this to the guideline as it is becoming de facto part of it. --Gonnym (talk) 09:57, 21 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose - The NCTV guideline is intentionally agnostic as to which method is preferable, as each case should be handled in the way that is most beneficial. In this case, the 2001 series did also air in the United States and is based on an American comic strip. In this case, the by-year disambiguation method is the most clear per guideline which says it is "Generally used when there are shows with the same title within the same region and/or across multiple regions". -- Netoholic @ 03:54, 23 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • Are you seriously going to oppose this for two TV series that are just four years apart?! Really?! The Canadian series is described as Canadian in the article – that it later aired on U.S. TV is irrelevant. --IJBall (contribstalk) 07:36, 23 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
      • It aired in multiple regions and has a reasonably strong connection to both countries to warrant that the current by-year method is more distinguishable. This is always case-by-case. -- Netoholic @ 08:57, 23 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. The shows' premiere years aren't far enough apart for by-year disambiguation to be clearly identifiable. Bearcat (talk) 17:16, 8 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
