Talk:Danger Mouse (1981 TV series)

message: Can anyone add other details to the characters section regarding changes to them in the revived series? Visokor (talk) 15:35, 29 September 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: I think I would tend to agree with this based on some of the edits that came through today, like this one by Visokor. Though I'm sure he meant well, we cannot have editors retroactively changing character names, well-established personalities, etc. simply because there's a newer incarnation. You might consider dividing the character list into "Original series" and "2015 series" subheadings. We will have to keep our eyes open to be sure that people are editing in the correct place. At some point (discuss first) it might make sense to create a List of ... characters article. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 17:08, 29 September 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Update I have created a new article for the 2015 series at Danger Mouse (2015 TV series). This should help resolve any confusion. I think that information about the 2015 characters should be removed from this article and readers should be directed to the new one.  Cyphoidbomb (talk) 17:54, 29 September 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  revival changes query 

message: I propose this article be moved to Danger Mouse (1981 TV series) to help naturally disambiguate from the reboot, which is at Danger Mouse (2015 TV series). Thoughts? Cyphoidbomb (talk) 17:55, 29 September 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: That would make sense, though was it necessary to split the article into two in the first place? –anemoneprojectors– 09:46, 30 September 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: I think it absolutely warranted a split. It's a new series with new actors, new characters, by a new production company, for a new channel, with a new animation style, made 23 years after the first series ended. Precedents would be Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987 TV series), Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2003 TV series), Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2012 TV series). Or Inspector Gadget and Inspector Gadget (2015 TV series). Or The Twilight Zone (1959 TV series), The Twilight Zone (1985 TV series), The Twilight Zone (2002 TV series). Editors had already started expanding the character list in a confusing way, by slapping new voice actors into old roles, tacking on new characters without differentiating them from the others, and so forth. If we'd continued with that plan, this article would quickly become a ponderous soppy mess and the character list would likely have to be split out eventually anyway. Anyhow, there was no clear reason to me to inflate this article with content for what is obviously a new series based on an old idea. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 16:15, 30 September 2015 (UTC)

thread_title:  New film  

message: This section feels like it's been written by someone who's only intent is to diminish danger mouse. I feel the person either doesn't like the cartoon or wasn't even alive at the time. For example, what has the all time popularity of characters on Channel 4 have to do with how popular danger mouse was at the time of it's showing? Absolutely none that's what, the Simpsons also used in this section to imply danger mouse wasn't that popular wasn't even airing at the time the original danger mouse series was, so mentioning the simpsons is irrelevant to any context. 
Now I don't know the actual figures of the shows popularity in terms of how many viewers it had, but I see absolutely no relevance or need to the "debunking" of the 21 million figure here, just state what the believed figures were in an objective assessment, rather than what appears to be a somewhat hate filled anti danger mouse section filled with strawman irrelevances. 94.175.102.211 (talk) 10:55, 30 October 2023 (UTC)
