Talk:My Parents Are Aliens

message: I feel Phase 2 (Series 8) and the issues surrounding the show being axed (Granada ceasing in-house production and such). Should form a different article. It is too different to the original show (especially in humour) to be considered canon and I feel it takes away from the strength of the original 7 series to discuss the two in the same article.

thread_title: What is Considered Canon?

message: The layout of the episode guide on the main page is very untidy. For starters, the title of each episode does not be a header. I think the episode list is extensive enough that it should be moved to it's own entry, as with other shows that have a lot of episodes. What do others think? I'll move it and reformat it if others agree. Jay Firestorm 20:58, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree with reformatting, but I'm not sure it merits its own article.  For now I'll just standardise them - even if they are all headers, they should at least all be the same.  RobbieG 13:25, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

text: They don't need to be headers at all, not every episode merits it's own section. Standard bullet points, with just headers for each season, would be much more adequate, and meet Wikipedia's regular formatting. I still think the episodes merit their own entry - there are over 100, and shows with even half of that have their own entry. The episodes take up over 3/4 of the article, and make it look very messy. Jay Firestorm 14:21, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I 100% agree. Each episode does not need a section. I actually don't think an episode guide is needed, the episode list is fine. 
Do we agree it needs to go or what will happen?    Codu    talk    contribs    email   14:31, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Episode guide

message: I was wondering if there was anyone who knows enough about mpaa to identify which episode quotes come from.  Would someone be willing to sort out Wikiquote's MPAA page ( http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/My_Parents_Are_Aliens ) so that the quotes are under the right episode headings?  It would be really helpful and much appreciated.  RobbieG 17:41, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Are there any die-hard MPAA fans who can recognise quotes? 

message: There was a request at Wikipedia:Requested moves to move this page to My Parents are Aliens, but our style guideline at Wikipedia is to capitalize verbs in titles, even forms of the verb "to be".  See Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style (capital letters)#Capitalization of "to be" for some discussion of this point. -GTBacchus(talk) 00:09, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

message: Neither the main article or the episode guide feature details about the 8th series and state that the end of the seventh series was the end of the show.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.107.210.214 (talk) 21:49, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Looks like User:Pesf8039 removed the information from the two articles last month. I have added both back in. SynergyBlades (talk) 22:34, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Series 8 

message: Should there be a more organised separate page for the characters? I mean My Parents Are Aliens has had several series and there have been many different characters, that is what most TV shows tend to have on Wikipedia. The characters page here doesn't sum it up here IMO. And there is a page for the list of episodes so why not the characters.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wandum777 (talk • contribs) 17:39, 18 May 2010 (UTC)
