Talk:Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea (TV series)

message: I've been editing/cleaning up this article for the past couple of days and would HATE to see that "article doesn't cite its references" tags, as it was a fairly decent article when I started.  I believe a "References" section with cites is needed to avoid such a tag.  Any help in this regard would be appreciated. Sundevilesq 05:25, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

message: The article needs a photgraph to improve its quality. It should include the lead stars but a photo or drawing of the submarine would be nice as well.- Samdeham June 20,2007

message: Since a person objected to the timeline and deleated it, I take it that there is some type of rule prohibiting it's addition to the main body of the article.  I have included it here in the talk section so that fans of the show can enjoy it as it was. Bijou88Bijou88 15:26, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Sorry, but fan speculation and extrapolation is not acceptable (see WP:OR), unless of course you publish a book first. Clarityfiend 03:31, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

message: Can I add again the information about Trino's parody video?
"In 2006, an internet video regarding Voyage to the bottom of the sea earned great popularity in Mexico. The video contained the spanish dubbing of one episode, by the mexican cartoonist Trino, where the dialogues were replaced with absurd, often vulgar lines, involving the main characters of the series characterized as homosexuals, in a comical fashion. Since that, the series has gained more adepts in Mexico, becoming a somewhat cult classic. Some of the catchphrases (for example the "tutitu" ["too-tee-too"] one, mimic of a submarine's sonar system noise) of the video have reached some recognizance in popular culture."
If it is MAD's parody allowed in the Popular Culture section, why not including Trino's video? It became hugely popular and recognizable in spanish speak countries, where there was not too much people that knew the show.
The Trino's video can be found here:

message: I have removed the following: "The comic was also the villain's second appearance, but not his final one as is commonly thought: the character was re-cast mid-way through the filming of the pilot episode, and appeared in five more episodes in the first season. The character was retired when Werner Klemperer joined the cast of Hogan's Heroes in 1965."
Dr. Gamma was used in one episode only, the pilot. ABC felt the character was too cliched - a James Bond-type villain, and had him written out of future scripts. Werner Klemperer did indeed return to the series, but as different characters. Also, the role was not "recard mid-way through the filming of the pilot episode." The unaired pilot shows Theo Marcuse playing the role fro beginning to end. When edits and reshoots became necessary, the actor was apparently unavailable, and at that point was recast. 
There's far too much fanwank and supposition in this article.

message: Re-the color version of the Pilot being shown in black and white, surely the wording is wrong, shouldn it be from a b/w print of the color film, from which copies would have been made for overseas sales etc.., or something similar? 81.111.127.132 (talk) 02:07, 2 November 2010 (UTC)

message: ...Land of the Giants was planned as a 1968 mid season replacement show and was filming its first 12 or so episodes starting in sept 1967.This is long before any talks about a 5th season for Voyage.Part of the story may be true,but the pitch was made for Giants long,long before 1968 renewal meetings.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.93.45.43 (talk) 05:52, 9 July 2011 (UTC)

message: *I changed "USOS Seaview" to "S.S.R.N. Seaview" because it was always S.S.R.N. in the series. USOS was used only in the film.
*The diving bell was not named "Nimr." The "NIMR" (all capitals) on the outside of the bell stood for "Nelson Institute for Marine Research." 
*The name of the article about the Seaview is "USOS Seaview." It should be "USOS Seaview/S.S.R.N. Seaview" to reflect the difference between the film and the series. I can't figure out  how to change it. Would someone who does know please make the change?SWMSEMFEM2 (talk) 18:04, 10 June 2012 (UTC)

message: I removed this: "A few later season two episodes were filmed without Richard Basehart, who was away filming 'The Satan Bug'."  The Satan Bug was released in April of 1965, long before the second season even aired. I replaced it with the actual reason he missed those episodes.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ssosmcin (talk • contribs) 05:24, 9 November 2014 (UTC)

message: The episode guide can be formatted to be more like other series' pages since it is pretty spartan right now. Ratings info is apparently printed in Seaview: The Making of Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea by Tim Colliver (1992). So anyone who has that book can add a lot of info and build this page's information up to be more comparable to more modern series' episode guides.
Pages 54-55 of the link below give the season ratings for Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea Seasons 1-3 and the average share:
Season 1- 33rd, Season 2- 67th, Season 3- 63rd. 
http://americanradiohistory.com/Archive-Television-Magazine/Television-1967-Aug.pdf
Anyone who knows how to format the tables that other tv series pages have with the seasons, years, and their rating for the season can plug in this data. I can't find any data for the 1967-68 Season. The above pages also show Lost in Space finished 32nd in Season 1, 44th in Season 2. Time Tunnel (and Green Hornet as well as The Outer Limits Season 2), we can deduce finished under 70th place.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.201.246.17 (talk) 01:37, 19 April 2016 (UTC)
