According to IMDB, a long time ago, James and Lars of Metallica were supposed to voice characters on this show... what happened to that? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Musicaphilliac (talk • contribs) 23:35, 25 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Why were the character's pages deleted DaffyDuck619

James Hetfield and Lars Ulrich guest starred in the episode "Here There Be Dragons" as, respectively, the dragons Chino and Jett. Theywontletme (talk) 20:53, 16 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

List of Dave the Barbarian Episodes merely duplicates one section of this artilce and so should be merged.--NHSavage 19:07, 12 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, unless someone has some more detailed, relevant content to add. Maura Dailey 19:37, 15 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

merge complete.--NHSavage 21:37, 16 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I read somewhere that there will eb new episodes in Summer 2007.. true? Can i have some fishy crackers? 05:15, 7 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think it's official enough to be mentioned yet, but this forum post at least has it coming on a more regular Toon Disney lineup. I don't see anything about new/unaired episodes, though. --Oracle of Wuffing 03:22, 16 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

hey can someone get an accurate count of the number of episodes? You tube alone has 29 different epidsodes of Dave the Barbarian. 13-04-07

Just glancing at YouTube, the episodes they have are 10 minutes long. Just a reminder: Dave the Barbarian's episodes were done in a "Two stories per episode" style, with the exception of one episode. So, the list is correct as far as my knowledge goes, just that the episodes on YouTube are split up into extra episodes. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 216.170.23.236 (talk) 00:20, 14 April 2007 (UTC).[reply]

I register and stand corrected- though my preceding statement remains true. YouTube users cut the episodes up into 10 minute chunks, instead of showing the full 20 minute episode. However, I would like a clarification on something. Currently, we have a list of 22 episodes (as well as showing a few duplicates). But one episode, episode 12, The Figar / Silly Wiggy, has no original air date. And I've spent the past 45 minutes or so looking for a bit of information on this episode. I can find basic information about it pretty easily, but everywhere I look has either no airdate or an unknown airdate. This puzzles me, pardon me if I'm just being new to the TV World here, but if it never aired, I wonder where the summary and guest star information we and other people have came from? As far as I can tell, it never aired... --Oracle of Wuffing 08:51, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Come to thik of it The Figar, Silly Wiggy is something I'm curious about too, I looked it up on youtube and couldn't find it. I also searched through MySpace (thinking it's noe of those exclusive episodes) and couldn't find it either. User:AKR619

Well, YouTube and MySpace aren't exactly the place to archive cartoon episodes, so I wouldn't go about saying that the episode's lack of presence on those web sites indicates that it wasn't ever aired, though it does suggest so. The problem is, check that site I linked to, there are quotes from that episode, as well as guest star information. Okay, sure, that info could be phony, But it warrants a second look. --Oracle of Wuffing 01:16, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

According to this forum post, the episode aired outside of the US. I have no idea how to confirm this information further. --Oracle of Wuffing 16:19, 19 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

@Oracle of Wuffing that forum link is no longer valid. I remember reading, when DtB was still in reruns, that The Figar aired in Australia. it's also possible it was scheduled but never aired or was never even finished. 47.185.244.145 (talk) 06:16, 26 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Here's the contents of the Reception before I editted this article.

This show aired and it was praised by critics. It slowly became a cult classic finding a large fan base amongst children and adults alike.

This show is a favorite amongst celebrities, those who are known to be fans of it include actor Jim Carrey, actor Johnny Depp, absurdist John Cleese, actor Steve Martin and professional wrestler John Cena. It was heavily rumoured Christy Carlson Romano was a huge fan of the show but she said in a 2006 chatroom interview that she has never seen the show. Before his death Gregory Peck accidentally got an unfinished black and white copy of the pilot episode and sent it back, congratulating them for finding the next Mickey Mouse. The children of absurdist Spike Milligan have praised the show in interviews and have said that their father would have been a huge fan of the show if he'd been alive when it aired.

There is some really good stuff in this section, and I didn't want to delete this. However, just about all of that needs some form of citation if it is to be added back into the article. The only stuff I could find on the "Next Mickey Mouse" bit, for example, were from sites which were citing Wikipedia. Since this deals with other peoples' opinions, we need some third-party sources. --Oracle of Wuffing 04:56, 9 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It is supposed by this wiki that a Dave The Barbarian movie is in post production and will be rated NC-17. Not only is a movie unlikely, but one of such rating? I cannot find a single source.

I'll delete it tomorrow if this user doesn't come up it RELIABLE citation User:AKR619

• Cough* I think it was vandalism. Or there's a movie coming out called "Dave the Barbarian" that has nothing to do with the show. Crowstar!^caws 22:40, 26 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'd say the List of items in Dave the Barbarian could be merged here - it's not very long (or well-written), not much reason to have a separate page when it's so stubby. WLU 16:23, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

But like I said, when I have time I will make it long, and properly write it. User:AKR619

There's a comment regards this on your talk page. WLU 13:22, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
