I understand why Salty's Lighthouse wouldn't have had the hostage situation story like the original, but I miss it. Still, for what lines and scenes that could be found, this is a good story, and still a good lesson on not jumping to conclusions.
Seems odd that they would drop it since Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog had an episode with a similar plot where Robotnik forced a lab rat named Lawrence to drive a robot Sonic to frame the real Sonic while holding Lawrence's parents hostage. I did a Sonic/TUGS Parody a few years ago on that episode and had Lawrence play Sea Rogue. Although the Old Man is instead portrayed by Bert Hoo the owl.
If the voice lines were there, I'd have it so Sea Rogue was stealing parts to help repair his uncle because other workshops didn't have the parts for an older tug. But the green-eyed tugs had Sea Rogue steal barges for parts, claiming they wold repair Uncle, but it was a trick. But that's just my idea were there enough to work with in terms of voice lines.
@@FireStormDel Something they could have done for the uncle is just have him be resting in the warehouse in the Missing Barge episode and he tells Grampus that the barge just floated inside.
Even though Salty's Lighthouse screwed up Sea Rogue's character, I think this edit of "Pirate" still gets the overall message of the original episode across for both kids and fans of the series.
I find it so funny how Sea Rough and Johnny Cuba bacically switched sides in this show, in Tugs, Johnny Cuba was evil and Sea Rough was a good guy, and in Salty’s Lighthouse, they changed their sides, which is understandable.
these feel like much easier stories to digest compared to the main show, like idk it feels easier to understand. feels realistic to how they'd do a proper US dub
That’s because I can’t understand half the time what the UK actors are trying to say And most people are too lazy to put specialized captions so I can’t even read what they’re trying to say
@@Silverlink28 One of the biggest problem with tugs that people don't talk about is how their is almost never a moment where the british voice actors don't stop talking.
@@StewieJustSaidThat And their accents are just so thick. Even native English speakers can't understand half of what they're saying. Not to mention the additional quips the characters make during scenes where everyone is talking.
Given how the Old Man hostage subplot was discarded in SL- *A deletion that I don’t completely misunderstand* -I was nervous that this episode would turn out clunky and visibly flawed. But apparently SL showed more of Sea Rogue’s in-warehouse shots than I remember, so this still turned out very cohesive. A toast to Unlucky Tug, who somehow did the impossible and made SL faithful to its source material *Pepsi sip here*
Still wish they made a SL story about the green Tugs. Maybe make them his henchmen with snidely banter to boot. Always felt like the segments were meant to be ten minutes with Salty and pals have their own ten minute adventure. Solid twenty minute episodes.
Blimey, this really takes me back... So, I was vaguely aware of Tugs as a child, having seen illustrations of the characters in picture books, but I never actually saw them in action until one afternoon of channel-hopping, happened upon Salty's Lighthouse, and the Tugs section featured clips from this episode. Such a flood of faded memories came rushing through... Ten Cents' happy little song, Zug sounding like Suezo from Monster Rancher, the night-time harbour shots that would look right at home on TTTE series 3... Good times... Confusing, but good.
I was really curious how you were going to work around this episode to make it like the original. It's really clever how you use Captain Star to smooth over the edits to make the stories more similar to originals. Really nice job with this series!
Nice twist: sea rouge told top hat and warrior that he was stealing barges to get parts for his dying uncle, and after the whole star tug gang found they helped him get parts for his uncle.
I get the impression Robert Cardona was trying to do something on the lines of this, when convincing the States broadcaster to take TUGS on, only for them to demand more with it than, of course, he was not in a position to. I still respect the vision of the original show which, yes, had more going for it since it was the real deal, but still a great job, this. Richard Browning delivers. Regards, Samuel Farris.
You know, between "Ten Cents and Sunshine", "Run Aground", and this episode, the Stars kinda look like total asshats in this version lmao probably because the Zero fleet are friendly rivals rather than outright villains
Best Episode by far, I can’t wait for the Next Episode tomorrow TUGS The Lighthouse Edit is one of the Best Series up there with Sodor’s Finest & The Thomas Retrospective
I kinda wish they made a segment of Sea Rogue returning and asking for Ten Cent's help in rescuing his Uncle who was stolen for scrapping. A edited segment about bravery.
Where are Green eyed Criminal Tugs? Where is old Uncle Tug in danger? Why did Salty’s lighthouse remove the more Serious Elements? Kids can handle them.
The story is meant to parallel with what the kids in the Lighthouse are struggling with, a hostage situation may be way over the top for their similar ‘miscommunication’ trouble on their end
The Missing Barge segment was the first Salty's Lighthouse TUGS segment I ever watched. A very bad way to start my experience with Salty's Lighthouse as I have a list of all the things wrong with the original segment. But here you really did make it better although I still wish Philbert the Bell Buoy was given a line. And to this day I still have to wonder, who, or what, is Delta Dynamo.
I wish they kept the green eyed tugs in the story. Maybe they could have cut the part about Sea Roge's uncle but I do wish they kept the green eyed tugs and not made Sea Roge an actuwell pirate. But there were some parts I enjoyed like the voice acting. Cool edit. Hope you have a great day!
That isn't true. They did one story that covered the missing barge bit and another that brought in Sea Rogue. In the latter, Sea Rogue was just in Top Hat's dream.
Tugs: "Just because Sea Rogue wore an eyepatch didn't mean he was a pirate!"
Salty's Lighthouse: **THIS IS THE TALE! OF CAPTAIN JACK SPARROW!!**
*Jack Sparrow theme plays*

4:08 Like how the roles are flipped and Ten Cents is now the one accusing Zip & Zug of stealing the barge.
I'd just like to point out that in Salty's Lighthouse, this entire plot was revealed to all be a dream by Top Hat. Just something interesting.
Weird choice given their flavor of adaptation.
It's a shame that Sea Rogue is the actual villain in this interpretation, but it's still a good story.
Ironically this kinda is the same moral, not everything is as it seems at first, except here Sea Rogue's just a Pirate

Twist (kinda): I think that SL Sea Rogue is actually Sea Rogue’s Evil Twin “Sea Honest”

Nice title since Ten Cents asking where is barge is reminded me of a Thomas episode that would’ve.
Sea Rogue as a villain?! Wow!
Viewing Pirate without the actual pirates or the explosion scenes is such an unusual experience. Great editing work, Tug.
Best Episode by far, I can’t wait for the Next Episode tomorrow

I think Jinxed will be the easiest one of these to do. Nice version of one of my favourite TUGS episodes
Thanks for doing this! I always found it unforgiving how the whole SL episode was just a dream by Top Hat.
I’m a little surprised this episode came out later than it did.
It’s so weird to see this I love it

Tugs Is Amazing And The Series Are Very Good
What are the bad things in it? Please could you tell me?
@@tudorbrancuturcu5996 Everything

Sea Rouge as the villain is an interesting switch
So... not a dream this time?
Moral is almost contradictory to the story, it’s history
Ten cents singing goes hard
Ian James Corlett ROCKED as Ten Cents
Ok now pirate gets adapted!
That's what I said.
This must have been hell to make considering no footage from pirate was used in salty’s lighthouse.
That isn't true. They did one story that covered the missing barge bit and another that brought in Sea Rogue. In the latter, Sea Rogue was just in Top Hat's dream.
@@SonicJrandSarah oh, I meant the more interesting scenes with sea rouges uncle.
I really hate how they changed the narrative of this episode, completely ruining Sea Rouge's character!
Which episode number is Quarantine? Cuz like I *need* the movie producer tugs in my life
But unfortunately, Sea Rogue’s uncle died.
In this version, he doesn't exist.
@@SonicJrandSarah No shit, Sherlock. That’s the joke
@@brenlc1412 I had no idea you weren't being serious.
How did you get the Salty's Lighthouse vocals?
Sea Rouge is cool
