Talk:Clutch Cargo

message: The episode list and article state that there are 52 episodes.  I have at least 10 episodes that do not show up on the episode list. All the episode titles have the episode number in them, and these are all numbered in the 80s. 24.67.72.62 (talk) 18:47, 14 May 2011 (UTC)

message: I'm not sure on the validity of this information, but I heard recently from a more avid fan of Clutch Cargo that the creator's daughter was deaf. In order to allow his daughter to be able to enjoy cartoons, the creator used live action mouths for his characters to allow his daughter to lip read the dialogue.
As I already said, this might be bad intel, but if it's true it should most definitely be included.

: Hi, Robotichivemind. Yes, that would certainly be something to include in the article. Unfortunately, a quick Google search finds no basis for the story. The Syncro-Vox technique used in Clutch Cargo had been in use for about 7 years before the cartoon-- for "talking animal" commercials. Whether the creator's (Clark Haas) daughter was deaf, I don't know. But according to everything I've read from the people who worked at Cambria Productions and were involved in creating the cartoon (and their layter Syncro-Vox series) the technique was used simply as a means of cutting back on animation costs. I wouldn't be at all surprised if the live lips did allow deaf people to folow the dialogue more easily. Maybe the story developed as an urban legend out of that fact? But if you find evidence to support this story, please be sure to share it. -- Rizzleboffin 14:52, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Sounds like a nice story, but it seems a little unlikely to me.  I haven't seen it since I was small, 40+ years ago, but I don't think everyb bit of dialogue necessarily showed the speaker's mouth. 140.147.160.78 21:28, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: Legacy ? Nobody watched this thing, it was junk, the only reason it was syndicated and broadcast was it was cheap. But even five year olds were too sophisticated for the basement-level quality of this show. Junk junk junk. 203.160.86.170 (talk) 13:32, 28 October 2020 (UTC)

message: I've added a refimprove tag to this article because its references are a total mess! There are three separate reference styles, two of which use the same numbering system which is extremely confusing to ordinary readers, and the third which fails to associate specific references with the factual information in the article that they are supposed to support. They should all be combined into the standard Wikipedia:Footnotes system, both to avoid reader confusing and to provide proper verifiability (because readers should be directed to specific pages, not be required to read entire books, to verify information). ~ Jeff Q (talk) 09:16, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Link http://www.motorcityrocks.com/cargo.htm is dead, but I don't know how to show that in the reference type it uses. Making a note of it here in case someone else does, or I get back to it later. --Jamoche (talk) 16:38, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

message: I'm surprised that there is no mention of master cartoonist Alex Toth in this article.  He gave the cartoon its look.
: Is that true? I don't see any mention of it on the Alex Toth page...? ChriCom (talk) 16:33, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
