Talk:David Carradine filmography

About reverting some editions. ( For Lady Lotus)

@Lady Lotus: Greetings.
First, thanks for eliminating the redundances in the sections' titles; I was aware of them, but I couldn't figure out what was the best way to correct that issue.
Regarding the series episodes' dates, I wrote them as a help to place them in the most correct order; the idea was to eliminate them when the TV filmography was complete. (Is it now? Just added another series. Mr. Carradine's TV appearances seem to be infinite :-) Now, I am starting to think it would be better to keep them. The merging of episodes that TDFan1000 did (which I have reverted) precisely broke the order in which the appearances actually happened. Because there are no dates to make it clear which is their exact order.
Now, respectfully, I have reverted some of your editions for the following reasons:
-In the 1963 Armstrong Circle Theatre episode, his role was not called "Various." :-) But, leaving that space just empty could lead people to try to search for the character's name uselessly, hence the note. I added more information to it to better explain the situation. I think there is not a tape of that telecast, and no printed source listing Mr. Carradine's small role. A pity.
-I added the minute when the cameo happens in 1964 Alfred Hitchcock Hour in case some fan wants to check it. It's a service for whoever doesn't want to watch the entire episode until arriving at it.
-In the 1967 Coronet Blue episode, the fact that the series was filmed 2 years prior to its release is interesting. And it is the reason why you can see Mr. Carradine, after Shane, looking *younger.*
-The edition in the miniseries North and South inserts confusion where there was none. That miniseries was released in three parts, 1985, 1986, and 1994. Mr. Carradine was the bad guy throughout 1985 Book 1's episodes, and his character gets killed in the second episode of 1986 Book 2; that's why he was only credited in the remaining four episodes, without actual appearances. It's all in the full miniseries article, North and South (miniseries). Saying "6 episodes; uncredited for 1 episode" and conflating the two series in just the one from 1985 makes everything pretty confusing. I have corrected the note, my former version wasn't accurate either.
-I think in 2004-2005 Wild West Tech isn't enough to say how many episodes, it is necessary to precise the seasons. The series began before he joined it.
And that was almost everything. Thanks for your interest in Mr. Carradine's filmography. Maykiwi (talk) 20:42, 4 March 2022 (UTC)

About reverting some editions (For TDFan1000)

@TDFan1000: Greetings.
I hate when someone reverts my editions with no explanations, so here it goes:
-Regarding the film Detention, it's a similar case to the Coronet Blue TV series, as I explained to Lady Lotus. Actually, I think the shooting date should have been added to all the movies released after 2009, to understand how was his career going up to that date, and I tried to do so. Interestingly, several of those films are so minor that their production data are nowhere to be found. (Michael Madsen is in several of them. It looks like a friendship thing)
-2011 Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair is different from the previous Kill Bill movies. It is considered as such in Amazon (even if it's unavailable), IMDb, and Wikipedia itself. Wikipedia in Spanish, that is. Curiously, that part is more complete than Wikipedia in English. Sources to look at:
<https://www.slashfilm.com/561484/kill-bill-at-15/>
<https://screenrant.com/kill-bill-whole-bloody-affair-movie-changes/>
It's important to make it clear they are indeed different products. Since it was shown to the public and there are reviews of it, it exists independently from parts 1 and 2.
-Same as with the cameo in Alfred Hitchcock Hour, putting the minute in which the cameo in The Long Goodbye happens is a service to whoever wants to see it without having to check the entire movie.
-The mergings of the 2003 and 2004 episodes of Alias, and the 2005 and 2006 episodes of Danny Phantom are more confusing than useful, since they eliminated the episodes' names. This list is a service for anyone wishing to follow/understand Mr. Carradine's career. Without the names, they would be forced to research by themselves in which episodes he appeared, with two full years to check, episode after episode. Also, even if merging episodes of the same series is customary in filmographies, here can be more confusing than economical, since Mr. Carradine on occasion played different characters in the same series, or the same character in different seasons, alternating between series. Add to that the recurring characters through one or two seasons and the leading characters in other series. This leads to the question of how to intercalate everything *consistently.* Before my edition of September 28 there was no consistency. I found that separating each TV appearance is simpler to read, easier to intercalate, and allows us to match them with the movies of the same years to understand the progress of his career. (The way to intercalate TV appearances is by the episode's release date according to IMDb or the next best source).
-Son of the Dragon is quite a special case. It isn't a series in which Mr. Carradine appeared in two episodes, but, apparently, a short miniseries that aired in two consecutive days (December 27-28, according to IMDb), therefore, Episodes 1 & 2 (total running time, 2 h. 54 m.). However, other sources (including Wikipedia) call it a movie for TV, and the IMDb's User Reviews imply it was aired in one only long sitting, yet the users themselves call it a miniseries. The Hallmark Channel's links that could clarify this are all dead, even at archive.org. Whatever it was, miniseries or TV movie, these weren't two episodes in a continuing series.
And that would be everything for today. Thanks for your interest in Mr. Carradine's filmography. Maykiwi (talk) 20:46, 4 March 2022 (UTC)
