GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria
- Is it reasonably well written?
- A. Prose quality:
- B. MoS compliance for lead, layout, words to watch, fiction, and lists:
- Plot section could do with some backstory. It doesn't have to be a full "Setting" heading (although this would be an example of one), but even an aside after each character is first mentioned to explain who they are to the unfamiliar reader.
I've changed "prenup" to the proper "prenuptial agreement", because it's a colloquialism. The fuller term is correct in tone and avoids a redirect too.
I've also changed a few misuses of "exclaimed" - unless there's an exuberance or excitement to a statement, it's not an "exclamation", so much as a statement.

- A. Prose quality:
- Is it factually accurate and verifiable?
- A. References to sources:
- B. Citation of reliable sources where necessary:
- C. No original research:
- Used appropriately, where needed, and seem reliable to me. I've not encountered TV Fanatic but it seems legit.
- A. References to sources:
- Is it broad in its coverage?
- A. Major aspects:
- B. Focused:
- Scope seems fine.
- A. Major aspects:
- Is it neutral?
- Fair representation without bias:
- Neutral and unbiased.
- Fair representation without bias:
- Is it stable?
- No edit wars, etc:
- History is stable.
- No edit wars, etc:
- Does it contain images to illustrate the topic?
- A. Images are copyright tagged, and non-free images have fair use rationales:
- B. Images are provided where possible and appropriate, with suitable captions:
- Images are used well. The one non-free file is tagged appropriately with a fair-use rational, the other four are commons.
- A. Images are copyright tagged, and non-free images have fair use rationales:
- Overall:
- Pass or Fail:
- Having given this a quick copy-edit, I'm going to pass it in the expectation that the plot be given a bit of an expansion in terms of the backstory. Just a brief note as to who the main characters are as they're mentioned in the prose, as a reader should be able to just pick up a decent understanding from here without further reading. Apart from that, we're grand.
- Pass or Fail:
