TUGS - Castle Vision Acquisition Launch (June 1988)

[@StuartStudios5]

0:14 "TUGS looks set to become THE hit children's programme of 1988 and '89!" if only it went further than that...

[@natevalleystudios1086]

​@S.V. Saul Vazquez Jr. If HIT entertainment got hold of TUGS, it would become a literal children's show losing that more mature tone the show had as well as the drama

[@natevalleystudios1086]

@S.V. Saul Vazquez Jr. cool

[@natevalleystudios1086]

@S.V. Saul Vazquez Jr. ok

[@Toasted_Failure]

Imagine an alternate universe where the tone problems did not scare investors and made it to the United States and became a success. Only question tho. Would thomas and friends go the same fate because tugs was just a better show

[@Toasted_Failure]

@S.V.SaulVazquezJr. I wouldn't want to see the tugs moving around like thomas and friends characters in season 25

[@wreckbuoy5989]

Man 2022 is sure a year of lost media found its amazing how TUGS Project is able to restore and preserve parts of TUGS history

[@Wildcatt1999]

Lost Media is just so cool! Here's to hoping we get more in 2023!

[@Ink.454]

The fact that this is one of the most high quality tugs related footage out there is crazy

[@herrice3227]

And now I'm in tears once again. How can a little kids' show about talking boats stir such emotion in me? Even if it technically doesn't have much else new to show, it's still an amazing find and I'm glad it's been preserved! I hope Dad's seeing this too.

[@Kukaak]

Oh boy, this show sure looks promising! I can't wait for it to air in its planned format and to have several seasons of quality content

[@fredthefishii2437]

I'm sorry to say but tugs hasn't aired for about 30 years, and I don't think the show will ever air on television again.

This has got to be the best TUGS find so far! Thank you so much! Pity TUGS never became the big success they wanted it to be……..

I'm with you, Joseph. 👍

When TV show makers out actual hard work and dedication into their programming and not leave it to a computer. 👍

Honestly, it's very nice to see (and hear) most of the clear, true sizzler. Thank you to all who worked on this, you did a wonderful and amazing job!

For a great of year it was for Tugs lost media in 2022, I'm more excited to know that we now have an official opening sequence that utilizes the early demo theme with Ben O'Donnells' monologue, which was only ever available in audio on Mikes channel

[@TenCentsHarbourAdventures]

It Was Uploaded On The Star Switcher’s YT

[@motormouth2472]

This is awesome. I've been a fan of TUGS for about a few years. Wish I could have been part of the group that saw this show at a young age, but I am an American. At least I know about it in general

[@motormouth2472]

@S.V. Saul Vazquez Jr. Really? How did you end up viewing it as a child? I don't think they ever aired it here in the US

[@callum110597]

Wow, amazing! I get to see more deleted scenes in good quality!

[@loggior.speedweed4345]

This has bits of the Sizzle Reel in it! Ryan & Chris Edan must be seething!😂

This is a very interesting piece of previously-lost media. And seeing as I'm also really interested in Castle Vision as a label, I wonder what the rest of the reel outside of the TUGS section is like?

@@BoyTrain872 They are true, these guys have confirmed it several times. Besides, most of the people apart of TUGS Project are people who want the Star Tugs Trust (now called TUGS: The Exhibition) to release the full copy of the Sizzle Reel they have.
