This article is in decent shape, but it needs more work before it becomes a Good Article.
- Is it well written?
- A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
- In the Production section, "It was shown in a time slot between two fifth season episodes of Daniels' popular series The Office", you might want to remove "popular", per here. Do the same in the Reception section. Same section, "According to a report that was leaked to the television journalist Nikki Finke", remove "the", it doesn't flow well with the sentence. In the Cultural references section, this ---> "A complaining member of the public at a parks meeting", reads very odd.
- Check.

- B. It complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation:
- Throughout the article, link "Paul Schneider" and "The Office" to their correspondence articles. In the Production section, you might want to change the title of "The Michaels Scott Paper Company" link. Do the same in the Reception section. In the Reception section, italicize "Kath & Kim", since it is a television show. Same section, I'm mixed with this; I believe "The Office" should be italicized, even though it links back to "Michael Scott". I'm not sure.

Also, Reference 18 is missing Publisher info.
