• Grabbing this for a review if that is okay with you. Aoba47 (talk) 23:24, 14 January 2018 (UTC)

Lead and infobox

• Please add ALT text for the infobox image.
  • Done. Josh Milburn (talk) 19:54, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
• For this sentence (The motley assortment of guests have been hand-picked for the occasion.), could you clarify who “hand-picked” them?
  • Done. Josh Milburn (talk) 19:54, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
• Please include the years in which And Then There Were none and Theatre of Blood were released.
  • Good idea. Josh Milburn (talk) 19:54, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
• Do you think that it would be beneficial to include the length of the episode in the inbox?
  • Another good idea! Josh Milburn (talk) 19:54, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
• I would think that the “Guest appearances” section of the inbox should include the characters’ names by the appropriate actors.
  • Yes, done. Josh Milburn (talk) 19:54, 15 January 2018 (UTC)

Production

• Please include ALT text for the image, and I would also include the year in which the photo was taken to the image caption.
  • Done. Josh Milburn (talk) 19:54, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
• I would link Inside No. 9 on the first use in the body of the article. Same goes for BBC2.
  • Done. Josh Milburn (talk) 19:54, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
• Who said the following quote "designer's nightmare”? It may be helpful to attribute this in the prose.
  • Sure, done. Josh Milburn (talk) 19:54, 15 January 2018 (UTC)

Plot

• Great work with this section. I could not find anything that required improvement.
  • Thanks! Josh Milburn (talk) 19:54, 15 January 2018 (UTC)

Analysis

• Please include ALT text for the images.
  • Done! Josh Milburn (talk) 19:54, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
• I would add the years in which Carrie and Carry On Screaming! were released, and clarify in the text that you are referencing a specific film version of Carrie.
  • Yes, done. Josh Milburn (talk) 19:54, 15 January 2018 (UTC)

Otherwise, very interesting read.

Reception

• Please include ALT text for the image.
  • Done. Josh Milburn (talk) 19:54, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
• I would just say “especially” instead of “including especially”.
  • Good thought. Josh Milburn (talk) 19:54, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
• Is there any reason why you put Den of Geek in parenthesis as opposed to how you have structured the other sentences?
  • Possibly, but I've fixed it! Josh Milburn (talk) 19:54, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
• Den of Geek should be in italics, and I think it has an exclamation point at the end.
  • I'd rather not make these changes: The MOS section on italics leaves the treatment of these kinds of website up to individual authors, and I think the exclamation point is more style than name; it appears in the logo, but not when they refer to themselves (page titles and the like). Open to talking about it further, though! Josh Milburn (talk) 19:54, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
• For this part (A review in The Times, too,), I would use “A reviewer” instead of “A review”.
  • I would prefer to use "A reviewer" but for the fact I don't know if it was only one reviewer; sometimes these things are technically co-written. Josh Milburn (talk) 19:54, 15 January 2018 (UTC)

Final thoughts

• Wonderful work with this article. I really do need to watch this show; I am so behind with the television. I will pass this once all of my comments are addressed. Aoba47 (talk) 01:13, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
  • Thanks for your comments, which were very useful. Inside No. 9 is one of the best things I've ever seen on TV, and the great thing is that you can just dip in and out, as each one is a new story. If you're UK-based(?), the new series is on every Tuesday evening at the moment. Other than that, Netflix, Amazon Video, and DVD are the easier options! Critics adore "A Quiet Night In" and especially "12 Days of Christine"; lots of talk about "the best TV of the century" (seriously). I don't really have a favourite, as they're all stunning in their own way, though I have at least come to the conclusion that the third series is my favourite. But that could all change, as the first two episodes of the fourth series have been brilliant... As you can imagine, I could talk about them for hours...

    • Thank you for addressing everything! I will ✓ Pass this. I am actually US-based, but I would not be opposed to becoming UK-based lol. I will definitely watch it sometime in the future as all of your work on the articles have definitely peaked my interested. Maybe one day we can talk more about them. I always enjoy talking about television and other forms of media so I would be down for that lol. Aoba47 (talk) 20:03, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
