Hi, I came across this site a while ago and as a lifelong follower of cartoons, good and bad, I would like to contribute as well. I think I have seen just about every cartoon over the years from Tom and Jerry, Flintstones, Bugs Bunny and Woody Woodpecker to current stuff like Simpsons, Family Guy, South Park and a new show I started watching Moral Orel.
Not only have I watched all these greats, I have always been into behind the scenes stuff, especially the people who do the voices and many of who I have either met or wrote to. The list of stars I have met from cartoons is quite long, from people like Lisa Daniels, who was a voice in 101 Dalmations to Carolyn Lawrence, who voices Orel. I have written to both Mel Blanc and Walter Lantz before they died and I received a signed autographed photo from Mel about a year before he died. He was a true genius, who I admire very much. I found out that he acted in over 800 different cartoons, tv shows and movies in over 60 years of work. That is absolutely incredible.
Since then, I have been able to meet many of my favorite of current cartoons, including many Simpsons and Family Guy stars, from Dan Castellaneta, Julie Kavner, Yeardley Smith, Tress MacNeille, Seth Green, Mila Kunis and Alex Borstein. They were all very nice people.
I was really excited to meet both creators too at different times, Matt Groening and Seth McFarlane. They were both quite nice, especially Matt, who I remember talking to and signing for what had to be 100 people at this show. Seth was pretty cool too.
Anyways, that's enough for now. I have many more stars to talk about. Another time. Thanks. Glenn
