The result was keep. The arguments on both sides could definitely be fleshed out, but the consensus is to keep at this time. Mojo Hand (talk) 13:21, 15 May 2020 (UTC)

It could be included but the article needs work the MONTKUSH section reads like it's from his website.
- Keep I would argue that Mr. Sullivan meets all three criteria at WP:ENT. For #1, he was a main co-star of PitchMen, among many other minor roles in other productions. For #2, this is maybe weak evidence but he has nearly 40,000 Facebook fans on his official page. For #3, he has been a prolific creator of these pitch infomercials, and along with Billy Mays made a unique mark on the industry with their passionate style (which appears to be how Pitchmen came about in the first place). Agreed, though, that the article needs work and particularly the MONTKUSH section does seem ad-like. Paradoxsociety 07:11, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
