It is a series and the name of an archival collection on film; not a "film". It is an historical and educational resource. It did not have a single "release date" either. It has never been released, but is available for viewing, rental and scholarly edification. That one would judge its putative worth or importance based on nonexistence of reviews would be laughable and deletion is tragic. You are asking the wrong question, using the wrong measuring tools and getting the wrong result.
Wrong question gets the wrong answer. The AFD nomination and discussion is fundamentally flawed. WP:HEY. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 12:52, 2 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I changed the infobox based on this comment CT55555(talk) 06:23, 9 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I can understand the opposition to the use of the film infobox, but the television infobox is not appropriate either. I'm removing first/last_aired params while it's discussed, because as it is currently, it's just going to end up in Category:Pages using infobox television with nonstandard dates because the dates are improperly formatted (and I don't see that being solved without a hard date - i.e. "1980's" is not a valid date for the template).
