I've listed this article for peer review because I believe that my recent expansion has brought it up to or near GA quality and I would like another set of eyes on it before I make the nomination.

Hello, there. I think what you've already got here is well-written and well-referenced, the only concern would be that the article is a bit short. Here are my suggestions to expand the article :

Could you provide some context for those of us who are neither American nor into soap opera ? How were "normal" soaps at the time ? How was the social context in which the series was produced ? (How did men and women relate to each other at the time, etc) Just a paragraph would be fine.
I realize the show is 30 years old, but would it be possible to dig up some information on the production history ? You say the show sparked controversy. If so, how did Lear manage to have it produced in the first place ? How did he get the idea ? How did they chose their actors ? Again, I know it's a 1977 show so maybe this info has been lost, but it would be interesting.
Could you provide an episode list (Title, director, writer, first aired date if possible) ?
Is there a DVD release ?
Could you provide a plot summary ? Also, could you describe the characters, what they do and how they relate to each other ? (And what is the name of the character Greg Evigan is playing ?)
Television/radio Age. 1976. Television Editorial Corp. : Format this reference like the others. If this is a book, I think you could find the ISBN somewhere.

I hope you find this useful. You might also want to take a look at Cheers and Doctor Who which are both FAs. Have a nice day, Rosenknospe (talk) 13:00, 1 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Some other thoughts :

Remove the red links
Television/radio age is a periodical, so you must mention which issue you used (number X, year Z) so that someone wanting to read the entire article you used doesn't have to skim through the entire series. Rosenknospe (talk) 10:04, 2 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
