Who thinks {{In-progress tvshow}} should be on this page? Parker1297 (talk) 16:44, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

I think that this template is better: {{future television}} Ag97 (talk) 17:07, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

Ok. Parker1297 (talk) 15:25, 5 June 2009 (UTC)

The contestant portion needs to be completely rewritten. It seems like children wrote it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.97.0.55 (talk) 16:57, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

I agree that this article is at best messy. I've recently discovered this show and will try to contribute to the betterment of this page. MasteroftheWord (talk) 18:55, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

Revamp

This article has been greatly revamped. This is an ongoing series, so the participant section needed to be radically trimmed (so that future contestant lists can be added). Additionally, the participant section contained no inline citations, and was nothing more than a gossip section. That's been removed. I added sections on the production of the show and on reviews of the show. I took out the episode list; this should be a separate article, and should not be included here unless there had only been one season.

This article still needs a couple things:

1) I can't find anything about Catarina—not where she lives, what her last name is, anything. This is a major omission.

2) I can find very little about Kareem Ali. More information needs to be added here.

3) More about the production, editing, and post-production of the show should be added. It would be great if there was something about it's budget, more about where it was shot, and who the production team is.

4) More reviews should be added. I would caution contributors to make sure that these are from neutral, unbiased, published sources and not blogs, personal Web sites, discussion boards, etc.!

5) I think the overview section needs work. It's not a real overview, and seems short.

6) Are their differences between the Canadian and U.S. versions? I suspect so, but I don't know.

7) Is the running time really 30 minutes? I doubt it; given advertising needs, I bet run-time is closer to 24 minutes. This needs verification.

I also removed the information on the U.S. airing from the Infobox. This show might run in a hundred countries! Information on each country it airs in cannot be accommodate in the infobox, nor should it (and the infobox should not be made U.S.-centric when this is a Canadian show). I have done what I can for this article. I hope everyone else contributes, too! - Tim1965 (talk) 02:11, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

Running time seems to vary around the 21-27 minutes based on the last two episodes of season two (27 and 21 mins, respectively). The last episode seems shorter than most, so 24 to 27 would be typical, I think. Got the times from the www.abc.net.au/iview/ site, which streams without adverts. This is a flash site and the shows are transient so no links for citations, unfortunately. - Keramos (talk) 13:45, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
