This is a great show, but it is essentially the second season of African American Lives, and should be merged there. —MJBurrage(TC) 10:16, 8 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

They weren't aired in succeeding years--the first was in 2006 and the second in 2008. Other programs have different WP articles for different seasons, which helps distinguish the subject matter between the two (and, in this case, which individuals were profiled).

With only four episodes each, the two together have less episodes than a half-season of most shows. Also, for most of the guests, the details uncovered by the show would actually belong in the guests' articles with the show cited as a source. That does not leave much for what is currently two short pages on essentially the same topic.
Also, the hosts own book is about the two seasons combined. —MJBurrage(TC) 06:31, 15 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Agree: Merge - The two "shows" of 4 episodes each are clearly the same project. It only makes sense to combine them into one article called "African American Lives". Valerius Tygart (talk) 14:19, 10 September 2008 (UTC)Reply
