Normally a five-season show would be a slam dunk for notability. However, I get zero hits on GNews, Newspapers.com, or GBooks for this show, variants of its title, or the people involved with it. The only sources are a press release and a directory listing. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 22:09, 23 April 2022 (UTC)

- Can anyone access the New York Times? https://www.nytimes.com/2014/07/04/arts/television/what-to-watch-on-tv-after-flags-are-waved.html The article starts with: Top 20 Countdown: Most Shocking (also known as Top 20 Most Shocking, and also known simply as Top 20 in other markets) so I searched for all three names and "truTV". "top 20" gets a lot of hits, but nothing stands out, and I don't feel sorting through all of them. Dream Focus 02:52, 24 April 2022 (UTC)

- Delete Does not meet WP:NMEDIA.
- Dream Focus, the NYT article is a one-paragraph mention in a fairly routine "what to watch this weekend" article. Regards, MrsSnoozyTurtle 06:07, 8 May 2022 (UTC)
