Talk:The Random Years/GA1

• "Friedle was initially cast in Off Centre, a sitcom for The WB Television Network, but appeared in The Random Years after being replaced by Eddie Kaye Thomas." -- I'd add "in the former" at the end of this sentence so no one's confused about which show Thomas replaced him in

• "Although certain cast members were praised by reviewers, other critics were more negative of them as a whole" -- Is "them" referring to the cast here? This is just a doubt I had, I don't think a change is required.

Premise and characters

• "Wiseman only became a dental technician upon her suggestion and is not interested in becoming a dentist" -- Nitpicky but "became" and "becoming" are similar so maybe this could be reworded

• "The unemployed Todd does not have any plans for his future, and instead relies on schemes and is frequently show watching television" -- Are there any sources that could be used to clarify what type of schemes he relies upon? Sorry if this is obvious and I'm just missing something, lol. I also think "show" should be "shown"

• "Critics compared Wiseman to Cosmo Kramer from the sitcom Seinfeld, writing that both have uncontrollable and are idiot savants" -- Something about "both have uncontrollable" reads a little funny, maybe "both are uncontrollable"?

• "Casey works as a temp worker" - A little repetitive, not a problem on the GA level but this would probably get brought up at FAC

Production and broadcast history

• "the music done by Bruce and Jason Miller" -- Do we know what their specific role was? Like composing, writing, etc.?

• Since New York City is not linked, I think LA is too well-known to need a wikilink as well.

• "Prior to the show's production, Will Friedle was scheduled to star in Off Centre, a sitcom for The WB Television Network, before he was replaced by Eddie Kaye Thomas" -- "before being replaced" might work better

• "Premiering on March 5, 2022" -- Shouldn't this say "2002"? I was confused upon seeing the 2022 premiere date but the refs being from 2002, lol

• "Episodes airing on March 12 has lost two-thirds of the viewers from its lead-in program Buffy the Vampire Slayer." -- This would sound more correct without "has"

Episodes

• I'm unfamiliar with how it works in these types of tables, but do the full names of Diamond, Lisbe, Reger, Goldstein need to be repeated after being mentioned once?

• No other concerns I can think of for this section!

Critical reception

• "Critics described The Random Years enjoyable yet unoriginal." -- This could use an "as"

• "but both critics were critical of the execution" -- I'd say the last bullet point of the Premise and characters section applies to this as well

• "and Kronke said the episodes would have benefits from better scripts" -- This would sound better as "and Kronke said the episodes would benefit from better scripts" or if at least "benefits" was singular
