- Delete: I think it's factually incorrect, as well, but, whether it's accurate or not, it's a single food product that isn't really a cornerstone of cuisine or international. Geogre 15:21, 24 Jul 2004 (UTC)
- I think it should be kept but improved. (We use this frequently at home, with the accompanying comment, "Shall we have Chicken Tonight tonight?") Deb 15:40, 24 Jul 2004 (UTC)
- I feel like Chicken Tonight, like Chicken tonight, like Chicken tonight, (accompanied by flapping of arms) — except I'm vegetarian; minorly notable I suppose, atleast in Britain. Dunc_Harris|☺ 17:04, 24 Jul 2004 (UTC)
- This American has heard of this product, god knows where. Deserves an article, cleanup. [[User:Meelar|Meelar (talk)]] 17:14, 2004 Jul 24 (UTC)
- Keep. I guess if we have vegemite and Big Mac articles, there's no philosophical objection to this one. Someday we'll need a policy on food items and brandnames, we obviously don't want articles on every package on any supermarket shelf anywhere. Some straightforward wikifying and copyediting would make it a good stub, so it's a good cleanup candidate IMO, with a note that it's already survived VfD assuming it does and that this work hasn't already happened when it does.

- Hideously well-known and popular in Australia. Keep, could probably do with cleanup - David Gerard 19:50, 24 Jul 2004 (UTC)
- Keep. I've heard about Chicken Tonight in Finland even though they don't sell it here. bbx 13:43, 25 Jul 2004 (UTC)
- I remember this ad campaign. True, I don't think they've had Chicken Tonight in the United States since 1993, but it did make a splash. IIRC, it was even parodied on The Simpsons. Keep. Mike H 16:40, Jul 25, 2004 (UTC)
- Keep. I have friends who still do the stupid dance *sigh*. -- DropDeadGorgias (talk) 15:17, Jul 26, 2004 (UTC)
- There used to be a Southern California restaurant chain called "Chicken Delight" that delivered chicken dinners to your door. Gawd, I remember the jingle from age 8 as something like "No cooking tonight...call Chicken Delight!" This obviously isn't the same, but it sure seems notable enough to keep. - Lucky 6.9 21:38, 26 Jul 2004 (UTC)
- It was national, and it was "Don't cook tonight / Call Chicken Delight" -- Jmabel 00:14, Jul 29, 2004 (UTC)
- Keep. Notable product because of notably inane commercial that has permanently nested in our pop culture subconscious. Postdlf 04:15, 28 Jul 2004 (UTC)
- Keep. It's very well known in Australia. And what about Dickhead Tonight? :) -- Chuq 07:42, 29 Jul 2004 (UTC)
