Title: SPC's Voice Acting Post by: BjornKrigare on November 06, 2005, 03:22:05 pm I was just looking thru IMDB.com, and i found out something interesting
Terrence Scammell (Guido, The Narrator, Jerry Atrick, Bat Cat, Emporer Fred, Cannonball Battalay, and Cosmo) Rick Jones (Cerviche, Bad Bird, Meowzma, the Ninja Crows and The Sundance Kid) and Susan Glover (Lucille,and Princess Vi) ALL were VAs in the UBIsoft games SplinterCell, Splinter Cell Chaos Theory and Prince of Persia:Warrior Within just found this interesting (NO POLLY ESTER!! :O *sad*) Ah here she (Sonja Ball) was, with Rick, in Sagwa:The Siamese CAT Rick was...Fu-Fu... And Sonja was......Nai-Nai... Title: Re: SPC reunions Post by: BurkeWorld on November 06, 2005, 03:43:18 pm Yep, I've read all that before.

ohhh but on-topic, i didnt know about the video games, but i knew about that kids show. Title: Re: SPC reunions Post by: Kazzie on November 06, 2005, 03:58:06 pm I swear Polly's voice actress was on another kids show they used to air a long time ago called "Kitty Cats". She played the calico kitty named Tangle.
...unless, my memory totally betrayed me and I am completely wrong. But it sounded like her!

She played the calico kitty named Tangle. ...unless, my memory totally betrayed me and I am completely wrong. But it sounded like her! Yes, she was. I used to watch it after SPC was cancelled just to hear the familiar voice. I think some other SPC voice actors worked on that too, but it's been too long since I've seen it. Title: Re: SPC reunions Post by: ApacheMan2K on November 06, 2005, 07:53:29 pm while i was having a look at Sagwa myself, i noticed there was this bat with glasses. when i heard his voice i was like, "Oh, that definitely sounds like Speedy!"
Title: Re: SPC reunions Post by: D-Mac on November 06, 2005, 08:29:26 pm Hmm... on topic enough to be in General SPC Discussion.
Heh heh, I actually mentioned the Splinter Cell link in this thread (http://www.edoropolis.org/forums/index.php?topic=79.0;#msg507) a while back. Still pretty neat how they continue to appear in the same productions from time to time though. Probably because many are represented by the same agency (http://www.mensour.ca). Though I used to think Pizza Cats was the first time most of them worked together, it all seems to have begun with a cartoon called The Littl' Bits (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0179584/) from 1980. Yet another recent cartoon they've worked on is Toad Patrol (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0428176/) from 2002. Pauline Little, Sonja Ball, Rick Jones, and Terrence Scammel all played main characters in Kitty Cats. Equivalent to :francine: :polly: :speedy: :guido: It's actually surprisingly rare for all the voice actors from the same series to meet face to face, but after all these years, I'm assuming most of these guys know each other quite well by now. Title: Re: SPC reunions Post by: BjornKrigare on November 06, 2005, 10:43:25 pm This seems to happen ALOT, or at least with groups from that time period, other groups are the Transformers VAs and (all worked on GI Joe, but those shows were made by the same dudes anyways) and Robotech, and a few others I seem to have forgotten
Title: Re: SPC reunions Post by: CyberFox on January 11, 2006, 01:57:14 am Though a reunion would be nice
I'm not sure if any Anime convention (including the big ones like A-Con) would allow it Title: Re: SPC reunions Post by: Pizzacat on February 04, 2006, 08:24:31 am Seems they truly are quite the team...a set almost.
But also possibly since they work really well together and since there voice acting veterans. Id be more shocked to see them working on seperate projects. Hmm... on topic enough to be in General SPC Discussion.

Title: Re: SPC reunions Post by: dfd3657 on February 14, 2006, 02:31:46 pm I also noticed that the other day. But that really happens a lot with many voice actors. The voice acting community is relatively small, and a lot of the actors work on the same project. For example, I was looking at the English Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children VA's on imdb.com, and I noticed a lot of them shared some projects in common. Some ones I remember are Doom 3, Evil Dead: Regeneration and some bit parts in Family Guy. But yes, it is indeed cool how the SPC voice actors are (kinda) doing something together. ;)
Title: Re: SPC reunions Post by: Truro on February 27, 2007, 03:59:54 pm Ah here she (Sonja Ball) was, with Rick, in Sagwa:The Siamese CAT Rick was...Fu-Fu... And Sonja was......Nai-Nai... Looked into Sagwa upon reading this thread. Bought DVD volume 3 off ebay, to listen for the voices. Terrance Scammell was the casting director. Sonja Ball also voices one of the sly dogs. She sounds exactly like Polly. In the seccond episode, there's a rat, who sounds like Bad Bird. And Sagwa's father sounds like he's voiced by Spritz actor, although wikipidia credits him as Arthur Holden. Title: Re: SPC reunions Post by: SteC on February 27, 2007, 07:06:27 pm Whoa... old thread is resurrected... :O
Hey Truro, I thought I'd check out the official website and the characters look exceptionally cute! What did you think of it? Title: Oh my gosh, itīs Polly! Post by: formallykat on April 21, 2007, 11:56:55 pm Well, I donīt know if anyone will care about this but me ...
Iīve always been interested in voice actors behind cartoons, and while Iīve seen photos of the actors who played Guido and Speedy I could never find a pic of the actress (Sonja Ball) who played Polly ... but imdb.com now has a link to her photo! He he, yeah welll Iīm excited :) Sheīs quite pretty. Title: Re: Oh my gosh, itīs Polly! Post by: Violet on April 22, 2007, 12:40:26 am Well post it. I'm curious.

Aside from =] it says he was also the Narrator.
Samurai Pizza Cats (CINAR/SABAN)Narrator/Guido/Various Title: Re: SPC's Voice Acting Post by: sans soul on May 02, 2013, 11:38:58 pm I saw that too. Whew... I'm glad I'm not the only one that didn't recognize he did the narrator's voice. :O

I reeeally hope to see Rick finally get his site finished/updated some day. It's been a long time... http://www.rickjones.tv/ Title: Re: SPC's Voice Acting Post by: PizzaCatFan on May 04, 2013, 04:22:41 am I hope so too, D-Mac. Going by most sources online to date, he was the voice behind Speedy Cerviche, my favorite male lead in the series (thus why I have the character's likeness as my avatar).
I'm sure he did other bit parts in SPC, but that's his main role. Title: Re: SPC's Voice Acting Post by: D-Mac on May 04, 2013, 07:49:32 am Oh ho ho! Rick Jones is undoubtedly the voice behind Speedy. Listen for the 30 second mark in his voice demo below. Discovering this years ago basically inspired me to pursue voice acting. The guy can seemingly do it all, and is someone I learned a lot from studying, along with Terrence.

Just wanted to pass this along for anyone that's interested. Title: Re: SPC's Voice Acting Post by: A-Log on February 09, 2015, 03:45:31 am In order to give live back to this thread, I have some useful information. I got in touch with Terrence Scammell on LinkedIn and asked him about the characters he voiced. Turns out we were way off on that, and here's the correct voices for the following:
Richard Dumont as Emperor Fred Mark Camacho as Jerry Attric Mark Hellman as Bat Cat and Cannonball Batterly Michael Rudder as General Catton & Cosmo Arthur Holden as Spritz T. Cat and Yard Bird So to Truro, yes, you were on the nose on it being Arthur Holden (I think). As for Rudder, he is also a reporter and nearly got killed during an attack in Afghanistan. With that, I'm sure many fans would fix the cast lists (such as when we found out that Michael O'Reilly voiced Bad Bird), but do we also know who else voiced any of the other characters? Especially with the fact that there were a lot of voice actors that didn't get credited throughout the show? So far, we've seen a few Wikipedia entries on several other Canadian actors and actresses who may or may not have been a part of the show. Your thoughts? Anything you've found out in the past few years?

I have no info to add, but I would like to say that I'm surprised by the info; I thought Jerry Atric was voiced by Terrence Scammell for a long time now. Title: Re: SPC's Voice Acting Post by: A-Log on May 02, 2015, 02:06:54 pm Another thing that popped into my head: doesn't Meowzma sound like a gruffer version of Bad Bird? If so, then I think the guy's voiced by Michael O'Reilly as well. Any other characters that sound similar to the other that could be a match? Remember, most of the cast is Canadian.
Title: Re: SPC's Voice Acting Post by: A-Log on August 25, 2015, 02:02:18 am The forum's a little dead in the past few months (with the exception of the updates from the character designer's blog), so here's something to liven this up a bit.
What I have is a couple of demo reels from the cast of the English dub (credited or not). Lets see if you can connect which characters they voiced on the show (main, robot of the day, or otherwise) with a visual clue. Mark Camacho (Jerry Atrick): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0LQFaP-9KYQ Richard Dumont (Bat Cat, Cannonball Batterly, etc.): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Qfi4hQsIPU Bronwen Mantel (???): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ll_55MTAb1I https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SvLUJqL5Frg Mark Hellman (Emperor Fred): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5F3DYAHYH0E Sonja Ball: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0PA_u4rC8Xg As for Sonja, I've added her visual demo because even I'm starting to doubt her voicing Dee Dee and Carla (the latter I've always thought was voiced by Pauline Little). And one minor update: I've contacted Anik Matern, and yes, she voiced Ruby on the show. About to check in if she remembers any other roles she had there. Wish me luck. Title: Re: SPC's Voice Acting Post by: rcom88 on October 03, 2015, 08:46:49 pm I'll give it a shot--not just because it sounds like a good idea, but also because, I too, want to breathe some life into this place.
Both Delmont Rallye and Steroid Lloyd sound just like General Catton. Title: Re: SPC's Voice Acting Post by: rcom88 on October 04, 2015, 12:43:39 am I recently found out that both Mark Camacho and Sonja Ball were on Arthur. It was one of my favorite shows growing up, and I think it's pretty cool that they were on it.

Both Delmont Rallye and Steroid Lloyd sound just like General Catton. Many apologies, but I don't hear the similarities. Maybe I'll check a few episodes to be sure. I'll provide a few more clips from shows they voiced in later on. Title: Re: SPC's Voice Acting Post by: A-Log on October 18, 2015, 09:57:07 pm I almost forgot to mention: for the clip from the anime "Wizard of Oz", does anyone notice that the princess sounds a bit like Princess Vi?

Now that you mention it, yeah, she does. Title: Re: SPC's Voice Acting Post by: A-Log on December 02, 2015, 04:31:40 am Sorry for the delay, but I have a few more voice demos to share.
First, here's Michael O'Reilly's demo. In it, you'll hear proof that he voiced Bad Bird, but could you also pinpoint his voice to any other characters (one-off or not) from the show? Give a listen: http://www.mensour.ca/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/OReilly_Michael_Eng_demo.mp3 And here's Michael Rudder's demo. We recently found out (thanks to Terrence Scammell) that he voiced General Catton and Cosmo. Recognize his voice in any other characters? http://www.reisler.ca/men/m_rudder/m_rudder.mp3 More demos when and if I'll find them.

I'm sure there will be some more active fans to spring life back into this forum soon. Also, I think I'm correct about O'Reilly voicing Meowzma. Take a listen and see a little hint of his Bad Bird voice in him, and see what I mean. Title: Re: SPC's Voice Acting Post by: rcom88 on December 03, 2015, 05:50:21 am Thank you for sharing.

Title: Re: SPC's Voice Acting Post by: A-Log on January 28, 2016, 01:50:51 am For a while, I've been trying to correct several mistakes in the Samurai Pizza Cats English dub after nearly 20 years or so. So far, thanks to Wikipedia of all things, I find out that there's two more uncredited voices for the show -- Bronwen Mantel and Aron Tager (Tager's FB manager confirmed this to me, but Aron doesn't remember much; sent him a link to a couple of YouTube videos to jog his memory.). Not to mention the fact that Terrence Scammell told me several characters that were supposedly voiced by him were not so. (ie, Mark Camacho voicing Jerry Atrick, not Scammell.) I've wondered on how many other mistakes I made in the past, so I decided to this little experiment. Starting with the episode "Mission in Manhattan", I made voice clips of each of the guest characters (excluding the Geisha robot from that episode for now), and test your deduction skills.
First up is The Sundance Kid, the leader of the New York City Pizza Cats. Many say he's voiced by Rick Jones, but after hearing the episode after a long time, I doubt that to be true. Here's the link to the clip: https://app.box.com/s/jose83u60nqh9ycdixw3vekxdfqy0dmr As for Cosmo, we know he's actually voiced by Canadian actor and reporter, Michael Rudder. Take a listen and see if me and Terrance are correct on this judgement: https://app.box.com/s/y8p535d77st38okq28kntyq9m9yyg76t Next up is Dee Dee, the mistress of the group. I don't think that I can recall Sonja Ball voicing sexy characters, so this might be a different, albeit uncredited actress. Take a listen: https://app.box.com/s/jtlgn4gjtptzsh5wcww2qqlj53avctwj Abigail, the group's Francine, has a bit of a New Yorker accent that sounds a bit different than Pauline Little. Have a listen, but I'd be surprised if that's Mary Long (Canadian Molly/Naru) having a one-off guest spot: https://app.box.com/s/c7n6o41ikeklxuuxtmlke42u6g39w5mw Next on the chopping block is Lucinda, the city's version of Lucille. Sounds a little high pitch to be Lucille. My money's on Pauline, but I doubt it. Have a listen: https://app.box.com/s/5tk6ispi6zh3yb0myud5v03ggnfj600f And finally, we have Sir Chester Chedder, Big Cheese's uncle, and one of his relatives in the US (there was a cousin Jack mentioned during the reunion scene, where he mentions that he's from Monterrey). Sir Chester only has two lines, but I'm sure he'll be recognizable to those who've seen Canadian dubs of anime back in the day: https://app.box.com/s/fnblhfd5lq17za7kipl08z40t32uds4x So, that's it for now, hope you guys can figure this out, and see if you'll be surprised on what you can guess. Any updates will be added when I get some good leads.

Besides, somebody's got to bring some life into the forum.
Title: Re: SPC's Voice Acting Post by: rcom88 on January 29, 2016, 09:28:04 pm Much obliged. Besides, somebody's got to bring some life into the forum. I feel the same way. Honestly, this is a good site. But unfortunately for me, I came much later than what I was hoping for (2010). Title: Re: SPC's Voice Acting Post by: rcom88 on January 29, 2016, 09:32:11 pm I do remain optimistic about life being brought back into this place. There's also forums on this site that are not related to SPC/KNT, which I think does make a difference.
Title: Re: SPC's Voice Acting Post by: A-Log on January 31, 2016, 05:55:13 am Looks like they're a bit harder than I thought. I'll go for an easy discovery or two.
For one, I think that Jane Woods provided the voice of Empress Freida and (probably) a few other side characters. Take a listen for her role of Lisa (in "David the Gnome") and see if you can hear what I can hear: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pMdflpRwwgQ Also, my theory on many of the SPC cast going around for several anime dubs in the early 90's might not be far off, since we also venture into another show for the chibi crowd, "The Adventures of the Little Koala". From what I can tell, one of the penguins that's voiced by Bronwen Mantel sounds a bit like Junior. Take a listen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-syqurvKao Apologies for the quality, but you'll see what I mean. Bronwen also voices a character named Ms. Lewis, so I'm sure the voice she gives for her might be familiar to you. Not to mention, that after a few more listens, I think Bronwen might also be Carla. I'm unsure, but I still wouldn't be surprised if Pauline Little was Carla, since she and Francine sound similar. Let me know what you think. Hope you guys can figure out the NYPC characters as well. Title: Re: SPC's Voice Acting Post by: rcom88 on January 31, 2016, 11:56:38 pm Looks like they're a bit harder than I thought. I'll go for an easy discovery or two. For one, I think that Jane Woods provided the voice of Empress Freida and (probably) a few other side characters. Take a listen for her role of Lisa (in "David the Gnome") and see if you can hear what I can hear: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pMdflpRwwgQ Also, my theory on many of the SPC cast going around for several anime dubs in the early 90's might not be far off, since we also venture into another show for the chibi crowd, "The Adventures of the Little Koala". From what I can tell, one of the penguins that's voiced by Bronwen Mantel sounds a bit like Junior. Take a listen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-syqurvKao Apologies for the quality, but you'll see what I mean. Bronwen also voices a character named Ms. Lewis, so I'm sure the voice she gives for her might be familiar to you. Not to mention, that after a few more listens, I think Bronwen might also be Carla. I'm unsure, but I still wouldn't be surprised if Pauline Little was Carla, since she and Francine sound similar. Let me know what you think. Hope you guys can figure out the NYPC characters as well. Well, in regards to the first one, it is definitely the same voice actress. The characters she voices are vastly different, but there's no mistaken the voice behind the characters. Bronwen does voice those two characters, as you have said, and Jane Woods does voice "Mama" Koala/Vera. Title: Re: SPC's Voice Acting Post by: A-Log on February 01, 2016, 04:02:50 am Indeed. Here's hoping many of the fans that remain, including the ones like you and me, will continue to update the cast list with corrected versions. I also e-mailed Jane, but I haven't heard back from her yet. Also, I might make clips to compare and contrast throughout the year.
Title: Re: SPC's Voice Acting Post by: A-Log on February 01, 2016, 07:02:44 pm Just got a response from Terrence, and he confirmed the following for the NYPC episode:
Sundance Pierre Paquette AKA Pierre Kohl Cosmo Michael Rudder Dee Dee Jane Woods Abigail Jane Woods Chester Arthur Holden Lucinda Not 100% positive on this one. I would need to hear a longer sample to be sure. It might be Pauline, but I suspect that it's probably Liz MacRae. Surprised to see that Pier Kohl voiced Sundance! And also surprised that Jane Woods also voiced Dee Dee and Abigail. Didn't expect that woman to have that much range, let alone give off the air of a sex kitten for Dee Dee. Also, here's what Arthur Grosser (voice of Bad Max) has been up to: http://vintageversesvoiced.com/ He's doing some online poetry reading. In some of these, you can hear a bit of Bad Max in them. Check them out!

Title: Re: SPC's Voice Acting Post by: felineki on February 08, 2016, 04:23:56 pm You've done some really nice research here, A-Log. This really helps a lot given the lack of official credit info.

Thanks dude! Right now, I'm still waiting to hear back from Terrence about the rest of the voices, including some of the robots of the week and other one-shots. Hope to hear back from him soon. Title: Re: SPC's Voice Acting Post by: rcom88 on February 09, 2016, 04:17:28 am It would be nice to hear from him as, like you said, it would give us the info that we've been looking for.
Honestly, I do appreciate the effort you're putting it--not just to finding out the info, but also in doing your part in trying to keep this place alive.

Title: Re: SPC's Voice Acting Post by: ANE on February 09, 2016, 05:57:24 pm I'll just chip in here with more thanks towards A-Log; I've been away from here for far too long, but things like this thread is just the thing to get posts back here.
Just a quick question, was there any reason the credits never showed who voiced who, or is that just a common theme shows like this?

Just a quick question, was there any reason the credits never showed who voiced who, or is that just a common theme shows like this? I think it was a common theme back then for some shows. And I might be wrong here, but those credited for the voices were probably for the main cast, hence the confusion for many years. Anyway, I've got a couple more audio links to present soon. I showed them to Terrence and I've yet to hear back from him. Anyway, expect another post soon. Title: Re: SPC's Voice Acting Post by: rcom88 on February 10, 2016, 03:34:16 am It would be nice to hear from him as, like you said, it would give us the info that we've been looking for.

I definitely think there will be some things that do spark some more interest in SPC/KNT in the future. Title: Re: SPC's Voice Acting Post by: rcom88 on February 10, 2016, 03:36:39 am The thing about that is: there is confusion about who voices who, but that same confusion has led to some more life being breathed into this place, and I'm always in favor of that.
Title: Re: SPC's Voice Acting Post by: formallykat on February 13, 2016, 06:08:44 am Not to mention the fact that Terrence Scammell told me several characters that were supposedly voiced by him were not so.

Title: Re: SPC's Voice Acting Post by: A-Log on March 04, 2016, 05:15:02 am Still no word from Terrence yet, but I hope you guys can help me out on the following:
Meowzma O'Toole: Since many have confused Rick (Jones) for voicing him for years, I'm starting to think that Michael O'Reilly (Bad Bird) voiced him. To me, he sounds like a deeper voiced version of Bad Bird. https://app.box.com/s/mti8ozjwp1okqjz3c8n9xp0wmkqwxmg9 Princess Vi: I know many said it's Susan Glover voicing her, but after hearing some clips, I'm starting to doubt that. Sounds like it might be Bronwen Mantel. Take a listen: https://app.box.com/s/3pl7xueatnbxsa6bxy2wg7wtcxuom7b4 Mama Mutt & Junior: Might not be Sonja and Pauline, but sounds like someone else did their voices, judging how similar voices appear in other shows. https://app.box.com/s/hoypx89om0z055artk8nr8hzqnn37m5o Empress Freida: Methinks that this is Jane Woods, but I just wanted to be sure. https://app.box.com/s/m8bl7x4hxjd5a7glwz32loisyrb6i60s Bucky: Francine's boyfriend.

Judging from its design, it's the only time a Kinnikuman knock-off can do a good Frank Sinatra impression. https://app.box.com/s/miv5sz8b76rcsebacsfvljkl97arx6ad Fernando Curtenzuela: Might be one of the credited actors or the uncredited ones. https://app.box.com/s/fbj63qzf6nicdm144h3jpzgsukspk7yr Time Master: This voice still cracks me up.

I tried to contribute, but it just didn't work out. That's okay, though. I appreciate all your hard work. Thanks in advance. It's just that you've got to at least try your luck with some of these Canadian voices. Still haven't heard back from Terrence, Jane or Liz on their roles. Speaking of which, I think Jane Woods voiced Freida and Vi's Handmaiden, and possibly Mama Mutt as well. I'll contact Terrence again to be sure. I'm sure he's busy with acting and what not. Title: Re: SPC's Voice Acting Post by: A-Log on April 08, 2016, 09:35:41 pm Got word back from Terrence about the other voices. He was busy and forgot, but here's what he sent:
Mark Hellman - Meowzma O'Toole Liz MacRae - Princess Vi Jane Woods - Mama Mutt, Empress Freida Bronwen Mantel - Mutt Jr. Arthur Holden - Bucky, I. Beam, Time Master Michael Rudder - Wally, Big Frank, Fernando Curtenzuela Pierre Lenoir - Prof. Ohm Teddy Lee Dillon - Ohm Jr. Looks like I was right about Jane voicing Freida and Bronwen voicing Junior. I was surprised to find out that Liz voiced everybody's favorite ruler with a cute iron fist, but it was confirmed after listening to this voice demo on her website: http://www.lizmacrae.com/wp-content/uploads/7_cartoon_voices_animation.mp3 Pierre Lenoir was the only new name on this update, and he did several voices in other productions in Canada. And, I'm only shooting the dark here, but it appears that Michael Rudder and Arthur Holden voiced a lot of male side characters throughout the show. Expect more clips from me for other characters and minor characters as soon as possible. Hopefully someone will update the Wikipedia and TV Tropes entries ASAP.

Although, he couldn't figure out three of them, since he stated that of the clips had actors and actresses that didn't do much when it comes to voice over work. Here's what he had to say (I'm also providing any correct spelling, and what not):
Carla Crow: "I don't know." (Personally, I still think she's voiced by Bronwen Mantel. Take a listen to the kid voices on the show, and you'll see what I mean. Terrence also accidentally calls her Carlo.) Ninja Crows: Arthur Holden and Mark Hellman Mojo Rojo: "I don't know." (Still odd, since it sounds like two different actors voiced the guy. So far, I've only found two episodes where the other Rude Noise members speak.) Ronnie Guiseborn (not Guisemuller): Michael Rudder The Professor: Mark Hellman. Terrence also states my earlier screw-up: "Michael O'Reilly didn't do any of the narration. I did the narration for the series, with the exception of the promo, which was done in LA." (I think he mistook what I meant about the Professor also being one of the narrators in the Japanese version.) Great Warrior: "I did the Japanese sounding version, and Mark Helman is doing the other version." (In other words, Terrence Scammell in his first appearance, Mark Hellman in "The Great Comet Caper Part 2".) Beeky Bickerson: Richard Dumont News Seller: Arthur Holden Cuckoo Bird: Arthur Holden Seymor Jr. (from "Son of Big Cheese"): Bronwyn Mantel Rufus T. Rhumboid (from "Big Cheese's I.Q. Corral"): Mark Hellman Sylvia (from "Son of Big Cheese"): Jane Woods Speedy Fan Girls (from "Those Transformin' Felines"): Both the voices were done by Jane Woods Frogface (from "Kung Fu Kitty Contest"): Pierre Lenoir Smiling Jack (from "Kung Fu Kitty Contest"): Rick Jones Benny Bunny (from "Kung Fu Kitty Contest"): "Me." (Terrence Scammell) Walkie Talkie: Richard Dumont (still surprised. Although, I can see why many confused Richard for Terrence, since certain characters sound alike.) Capt. Nitro (from "Youth is For Exploding"): Richard Dumont Puff Tart (from "Youth is For Exploding"): Patricia Rodriguez (still active, but currently lives in the UK. She also did voices for "Arthur".) Crablo (from "Cold and Crabby in Little Tokyo"): Arthur Grosser (in other words, Bad Max with an Italian accent.) Love Bot (from "All You Need is Love"): Susan Glover Potted Pig (from "Close Encounters of the Pig Kind"): "I don't know." (Granted, since I could only get one intelligible line in there; the rest were just pig snorts. Could be Hellman as well.) Ruthless (from "Big Cheese's I.Q.

From what I've gathered, any additional characters (robots, citizens, one-shots, etc.) might be voiced by Bronwen, Jane, Mark, Michael and Arthur, along with occasional bits from Richard, Patricia, and several of the main cast.

Now if you'll excuse me, I've got some edits to do on Wikipedia. I also think it's awesome that you got replies from Terrence Scammell. Title: Re: SPC's Voice Acting Post by: A-Log on December 22, 2016, 02:14:46 am Sorry for not posting anything on this thread for a while, but i did get one new name in uncredited cast pile: Harry Standjofski. He's a character actor in the Montreal, Quebec area, and he has done some character roles in animation; most notably, Friar Tuck in "Young Robin Hood". He told me that he has done some minor characters. I sent him a couple of sound clips to see if he can pick out his voice from the pack.
Still haven't heard back from Aron Tager, though; but he was one of the cast members. So far, I haven't heard back from the other known Canadian voices from the Cinar camp, but wish me luck!

Did you hear back from Harry Standjofski? I would love to know which characters he voiced on the show. Title: Re: SPC's Voice Acting Post by: Tigriss on February 24, 2017, 09:58:20 am A-Log, can I just say how awesome you are for doing all this research for us? Thank you. :-*
Also, here's what Arthur Grosser (voice of Bad Max) has been up to: http://vintageversesvoiced.com/ He's doing some online poetry reading. In some of these, you can hear a bit of Bad Max in them. Check them out! This makes me laugh. I need to go listen to some of this soon. I would be great if any lurking artists out there would do a take on Bad Max reading poetry.

I think, eventually, we'll know every single voice actor/voice actress on that show. I wish I could do a take on Bad Max, but I don't sound anything like him.

Anyway, now with the forums not shutting down randomly, I can update you all on what I've found, voice-wise. First off, I got in touch with Michael Rudder on Facebook and he was able to identify a few voices that Terrence was unable to do so. First off, he said that he did the grunts and the one lone spoken line for the Potted Pig. Second, he ID'ed Mojo Rojo as being voiced by the late Gary Jewell, who was also the English voice for Bob in "Bob in the Bottle". Also, the topic actually made it a forum page on Anime News Network, where AVHodgson said that I was correct in my matches, but was off by one. That was Beaky Bickerson. According to him, Beaky was voiced by Gordon Masten, who has done work for both Montreal and Toronto. And judging by his portrayal of Morton Koopa, Jr., I wouldn't be surprised if he voiced a few of the Ninja Crows alongside Arthur [Holden] and Mark [Hellman]. Here's the original forum link: (https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/bbs/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=3053314) I also gained some back and forth access to Aron Tager via two agents of his. They confirmed that the late actor did voice work on the show; and they confirmed that he voiced Charlie Bird (from "Singing Samurai Sensei-tion") and Santa Claus (from "The Cheese That Stole Christmas"). Sadly, I still haven't found from Harry Standjofski on who he voiced on the show. But he did tell me that he did voice work for it. I've also brought some investigation on who voiced who on the "Behind the Voice Actors" forums and see what they think. It's still a process, and I'm getting help from others (including AVHodgson) in fixing this. He still believes that Bronwen Mantel voiced Carla, but when I showed Rudder the clip, he said he couldn't recognize the voice. I'll send over the post from BTVA as well: (https://www.behindthevoiceactors.com/forums/showthread.php?t=17060) User WhyofBladez also provides a list of those who might've been around for that short-lived amount of time in voice; hence both Terrence and Michael recall that whoever voiced Carla didn't last long in the voice-over world. At first, I thought it was Jessalyn Gilsig, but it turned out to be false. Hopefully, I'll try to find out more info with AV's help. And once more to Tigress, but I still like to say "You're welcome". I'm doing the best I can. Glad to post normally once again. Title: Re: SPC's Voice Acting Post by: A-Log on May 25, 2020, 09:50:39 pm Sorry for not posting in a few weeks, but I come with great news!
After several years of research, I've found that the voice of Carla was done by Eramelinda Boquer. Boquer, a veteran voice actress and radio broadcaster in Montreal, has been known for voicing Rubella in "Arthur" for many years. I contacted her about this via e-mail, and she said that hearing the clip of her as Carla has brought back memories for her. Here's the proof of how she sounds via her Voice 123 account: https://voice123.com/eramelindaboquer Looks like this case is pretty much closed! Carla's not voiced by Bronwen Mantel like I've originally thought; Eramelinda was the voice that was elusive to the ears of Terrence Scammell. EDIT: OH, and speaking of Bronwen; she was the one that voiced Lucinda in "A Mission to Manhattan". She remembered her voice as attempting a bad Marilyn Monroe impression for Lucinda. Can't believe that slipped my mind! Title: Re: SPC's Voice Acting Post by: blind2d on May 26, 2020, 11:03:22 am Hooray!! Well done, and thank you for your service! :D <3
