Talk:Robert J. Walsh

"Walsh was not credited for his work on The Transformers until season 1 episode 6." Before I did some editing, this page said that Walsh wasn't credited for his work in seasons 1 & 2. I checked the credits, and found he was credited starting at episode 6. I changed the page to the text above, but I'm not sure it is still accurate. It sounds like he worked on episodes before episode 6 and was not credited, but do we know that for sure? Did he do work in episodes 1–5? - Starfield 12:50, 15 July 2013 (EDT)

I don't think the credits are particularly accurate. Transport to Oblivion and Roll for It just recycle the MTMTE credits, which therefore name George Arthur Bloom as the writer for both of those episodes. When I've been making articles for people who worked on the toon, I've been stating in broad terms which season they're known to have worked on. --abates 20:05, 15 July 2013 (EDT)

This another case of Rhino confusing everyone?

I've said on youtube that Rob Walsh had nothing to do with the Season 1 opening, and maybe not the Season 1 music. Someone asked for evidence, and that's when I found out what happened on the DVDs. Those credits are all reconstructed with new text, and there are incorrect listings everywhere. I can't explain how Walsh got included in the Season 1 credits - maybe certain season 1 reruns had an addition, but very likely Rhino screwed up again - but my clear memory of the broadcasts tell me that Walsh was never credited on Season 1. Youtube has evidence: there are credit sequences from VHS releases of the Pilot and of "Heavy Metal War", and you can also see that the "Eras Bold ITC"-style font is not quite the same as in the DVDs (The lone exception being the "Toei Doga" slide, presumably because they needed the logo). More evidence at iMDB: Walsh's contributions match the credits, as his work is listed in only(!) 82 episodes out of 98. I'm not ready to state as fact or make edits there, however, because I don't follow the community and the fandom at all heavily, and maybe there's confirmation somewhere, maybe from Walsh himself before he passed. I will need to know for certain before I complete my own set of reconstructed credits. JoseBxR (talk) 17:34, 24 July 2024 (EDT)
