The One About Friends: The references used are insufficient for a determination that the subject is notable, and my WP:BEFORE did not reveal significant coverage elsewhere.  Articles about television series' episodes, like all articles, need to be about subjects that are notable in order to merit inclusion.  Unilateral redirection was attempted two times, by longstanding editors, but has been reverted by IPs, and the most recent restoration was done by an IP with a singular focus on the series (see WP:SPA ).  — Alalch E. 17:02, 29 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Note:  This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Television and United States of America .  — Alalch E. 17:02, 29 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Note:  This discussion has been included in the list of Comics and animation-related deletion discussions .

This is a 262-word review of the episode.  The review notes: "The Cleveland Show: This one I’m a little less sure on. There were fewer laughs than in last week’s episode – outside of pretty much anything featuring Cleveland, Jr., and Cleveland’s inappropriate come-ons to a variety of teenage boys – but the storyline made a lot more sense. I mean, if you’re the kind of person who thinks that a man having an opossum stuck to his penis equals instant laughs, it’s entirely possible this was your favorite episode of television of all time, but I’m sad to say I’m not that kind of person. The cut-away gags still aren’t working, as though the show is trying to figure out a way to be its parent show without really being its parent show. ... Grade: B-"  Haque, Ahsan (2009-10-12).  "The Cleveland Show: "The One About Friends" Review" .  IGN .  Archived from the original on 2023-10-01 .  Retrieved 2023-10-01 .  This is a 565-word review of the episode.  The review notes: "Thankfully the best gag of the episode was reserved for Ernie's possum latching on to Cleveland's crotch. Sure the entire segment of a naked Cleveland trying to wrestle this creature off his crotch came across as very juvenile, but it was pretty well done and it's hard not to laugh at the sight of Cleveland humping a dresser in attempt to shake the possum off. ... The other memorable segment of the episode was towards the end when Cleveland and a small army of rednecks attempt to rescue Ernie from his foster home. The ensuing gunfight was ridiculously over-the-top and was nicely choreographed, with plenty of bullets and the kind of violence you'd expect to see from a show like this."  There is sufficient coverage in reliable sources to allow "The One About Friends" to pass Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline , which requires "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject".
