I've listed this article for peer review because this may be reach to Good article standards. I've almost written about 80% of the article's contents including the citations. Any comments are welcome here. If have any concerns, please contact on my
talk page. The things I do for love!
Wow what a nice article, very informative. As a self-confessed citation nut, all I can say is that I'd like to see a citation for:
"As of 2011, all 52 episodes are in reruns on Cartoon Network and Boomerang." in the lead,
At least one citation in the Overview section,
"A total of fifty-two episodes were produced in four seasons. The series originally ran from November 12, 1999 and ended on November 22, 2002." in the broadcast section
citations for the statements in the broadcast history,
Citations for the other releases section
All this information had to have come from somewhere LOL, Cheers and great work!

Thank you for the information. At least someday I should get into GA or FA standards for one day. :) JJ98 (

"The segment was nominated for an Academy Award[1]" -> no citation in the lead, the information is supposed to be below
"The series premiered on November 12, 1999, ran for four seasons, and ended on November 22, 2002." -> Personal comment: I'd reworded it as "The series, which premiered on November 12, 1999, ran for four seasons, ending on November 22, 2002." or something similar
"As of 2011, all 52 episodes are in reruns on Cartoon Network and Boomerang." -> too short for an own paragraph
I feel that it is too short, it summarize its content?
Overview
This section is extremely similar to
this, especially "Courage the Cowardly Dog revolves around the exploits of Courage, a small, fuchsia dog who, despite his name, is afraid of the most mundane things". I recommend you to use your own words and avoid this because it can be seen as a copyright violation.
"greedy farmer who harasses Courage. He usually harasses Courage" -> redundant
Production
Courage the Cowardly Dog began -> since, as far as I know, it was not intended to be a series, another verb would be better, such as "created" or "intended"
a de facto pilot -> a de facto pilot
"(in a still-later episode, the single-bodied, triple-headed sons of the alien chicken attempt revenge, but only because their mother won't let them in the house until they kill Courage[4])." does not reads encyclopedic.
"the short was nominated for an Academy Award.[1]" -> which award?
"The studio produced 4 seasons with 13 episodes in each season until the last original airing on November 22, 2002." -> unsourced
"Original music featured in Courage the Cowardly Dog...several weeks to compose.[7]" -> This paragraph is apparently based in one source. Two things a) is this source reliable? I believe it is not, and b) are this paragraph sourcing all the paragraph?
Broadcast history
Unsourced section
Episodes
"A total of fifty-two episodes were produced in four seasons. The series originally ran from November 12, 1999 and ended on November 22, 2002." -> already mentioned and unsourced here as well
References to Dilworth
Dilworth -> overlinked
a delivery truck -> unsourced unlike the others
which references him.[11] -> redundant
"Often a caricature of himself (named Dilly) can be seen in the background, e.g. a portrait of himself hangs on the Bagges' wall by the stairs and on a milk container with the missing person's question "Have you seen me?" written underneath" -> unsourced
Reception
imaginative - they -> imaginative—they
CGI -> link it
References
Reference 4 needs more information per {{cite episode}}
Reference 7 is incomplete
Reference 8, 20, 21, 22 are unreliable sources

This is one of my favourite animated shows, ans unfortunately, its main problem is sourcing. There are many unsourced statements, and some unreliable references. Also, it does not meet the
WP:GA?´points 2 and 3. An example of an animated TV show which is a GA is
South Park. Use this articl as an example of the work missed.
