Talk:Cal Worthington/Archives/2015


Organizing the "Popular culture" sub-section

I have just written a brief introduction to the "Popular culture" section, categorized the entries by media format (film, television, music, etc.) and arranged them as bullet-pointed lists, setting them, as best i could, in chronological order of release date, to allow for tracking of his popularity in popular culture through the decades. I added one film (Made in America). All entries that were undated i placed at the bottoms of their respective sub-sections, in the hope that someone else would have time to go back in, date them, and rearrange them correct. 70.36.137.47 (talk) 01:16, 14 February 2014 (UTC)

Found this little tidbit in Wait Till Your Father Gets Home:

When a crooked car dealer on another episode was perceived by real-life Los Angeles car salesman Cal Worthington as being a send-up of him, he sued the studio (Hanna-Barbera), the sponsors (Chevrolet) and the five NBC-owned stations that carried the show.<ref>Erickson, Syndicated Television, McFarland, 1988</ref>
