Cannot access source, but assuming good faith based on checking surrounding sources that mention it and article quality. Getting sued for satire is pretty interesting. Article is a new GA, long enough, has no copyvio/neutrality problems and seems to deserve that status. Provided source is Variety, reliable. Hook is short enough. QPQ done. Though, I have to wonder, did anything come of the lawsuit? If no source says that's fine. PARAKANYAA (talk) 07:11, 25 May 2025 (UTC)
source was sent to me, verifies. good to go! PARAKANYAA (talk) 01:48, 26 May 2025 (UTC)
