Looks like a well-sourced, exemplary television episode article. Tabula Rasa and other similar articles were passed, so I don't see how this would be any exception. Just give me a couple hours. BenLinus 1214^talk 21:06, 26 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Newyorkadam: Good work here, and I don't have any major comments. Just a few writing points and a sourcing question before I pass:

You should probably put a period in the caption for the Christian Shepherd image.

Is the paragraph that begins "In the scene when Jack is dangling from the cliff" completely sourced to that one ref? It's fine if it is, but it was a bit unclear to me.

All of that is covered in one ref, but I've added the ref in several places throughout the paragraph to make it more clear. Please let me know if that will suffice.

"In the previous episode, "Walkabout", Christian was played by a stand-in actor, as his actor hadn't been cast yet; thus, his face was not shown, only the back of his head was." This sentence is a little bit clunky and contains too much repetition of the word "actor." I would recommend something like, "In the previous episode, "Walkabout", Christian was played by a stand-in actor, as the character hadn't been cast yet; thus, only the back of his head was shown." ("only the back of his head" implies that his face wasn't shown, either).

@BenLinus1214: Thank you for the review— I think I've made all of the changes you suggested. -Newyorkadam (talk) 23:20, 26 April 2015 (UTC)Newyorkadam[reply]

Good job! Looking at the article history, you've basically amped this article up to GA single-handedly! Nice one! :) BenLinus 1214^talk 23:43, 26 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
