Voice actor surprises.

On a similar note, I was once flipping through the channels and stumbled across an episode of Gunsmoke (or maybe it was Bonanza), and a little kid talking in the scene was the original Linus from Peanuts. I recognized his voice in a heartbeat.
 
If you're referring to the "Voice Actor Surprises" thread, it hasn't died. The last post was May 5th.

And since these threads are so closely related I'm going to invoke mod privilege and merge them.

Sorry for the interruption. I have enjoyed reading this line of discussion so by all means please carry on.
 
I thought you meant in interesting places, like Greg Abbey being at the New Jersey Shonen Jump.

Whenever I see a thread like this, I am immediately reminded of the time I saw Jason Griffith, the voice of 4kids Sonic, 4Kids Usopp, Looker, etc, being in an ad for condoms. Pretty hilarious considering the kinds of AMV that were mixed and matched to that scene.
 
I learned that Flats the Flounder (that one-shot character on Spongebob who likes to kick ppl's butts) was voiced by the guy who played Biff Tannen (and his identical relatives) in Back to the Future. Imagine the horror of Spongebob with the Delorian.



George Newburn, the gentleman who replaced Tim Daly as George Newburn, the gentleman who replaced Tim Daly as Superman in the Justice League series, also voices Sephiroth. On a related note, Michael Ironside, voice of Darkseid, was also Sam Fisher (as in Splinter Cell).
 
Here's another one: Brian Cummings (Bumbelion on The Wuzzles and a few other 80s roles) was an announcer on The All-New Let's Make a Deal in 1984.
 
Stephanie Beard, who was the 2nd voice of Rini/Chibi-Usa in Sailor Moon, was also a PJ (YTV term for "announcer" for short spots for educationnal contents) in YTV's "The Zone" in Canada in the early 2000s with.
 
After reading the news about Special Agent Oso's new season starting in July, I happened to remember that the kid-helping Oso helped another famous kid...Frodo Baggins from the Lord of the Rings movies.
 
Billy West earlier voiced Elmer (as well as Bugs Bunny) in Space Jam.

On Futurama, I already knew that Mr. West voiced Fry, Prof. Farnsworth and Zapp Brannigan (although that role was originally intended for the late Phil Hartman), but I had to find out that he also voiced Dr. Zoidberg and Smitty (the human half of the future cop duo on the show).
