So... first off, many of these (all?) are not Star "original" programs... they are Hulu originals later shown on Star. The other major issues this creates is that, for instance, there's Helstrom listed as "(2021)" but Helstrom was a 2020 series (on Hulu). Same with Love, Victor, which is not "(since 2021)"—it was first released in 2020 (again, on Hulu). —Joeyconnick (talk) 01:48, 28 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It appears to be following the precedent of the Netflix original programming template, which includes shows originally aired on other networks/streaming services that have been picked up by Netflix (here, Star) to be produced by them. E.g. Black Mirror is deemed Netflix original programming even though it was on Channel 4 for two seasons and a movie beforehand. And that is why "since" is used for some dates - it has only been Star original since that year, not for its entire run. There are no problems. Kingsif (talk) 02:31, 28 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Black Mirror is an entirely different case, in that Netflix actually took over its production, as opposed to simply slapping a label on it when it received rights to stream it. For instance, Riverdale is not listed in Template:Netflix original current series even though Netflix definitely slaps its "Netflix Original" label on it if you are watching it via their service. So there are definitely problems here because, again, this entire template gives the impression that Star is creating/producing these series, and that they are therefore debuting in different years, as opposed to merely airing them. —Joeyconnick (talk) 17:47, 10 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
