"A particularly bad example" is ambiguous in this context. You mean, then, that Relata was saying that the list is a bad example of a bad article.
Yes, that's quite clearly what Relata was saying.
The way phrase "makes no effort to duplicate banter" sounds like a criticism also.
You're misinterpreting.
It's not a random television program, it's the television program that's the subject of the article.
...that I encountered randomly. How would you feel if the program was something like, say, [[Ikebukuro West Gate Park (TV series)]]? (Substitute something equally foreign to you if you happen to watch TV in Japan.) All articles on TV shows and other media should be approached by their writers with the totally unfamiliar audience in mind, and aim for clear and succinct explanatory writing, not a robotic parroting of every minor point of the show's content ever broadcast.
Who cares how you encountered it? The article is not about the TV show itself, it's about the episodes of the TV show - it's safe to assume anyone reading the article will already have a passing familiarity with the show itself, we have an article on it, after all. And the whole point Relata was trying to make was that it doesn't parrot every minor point.
