List of cartoon characters
This list is incomplete; you can help by expanding it.
When asked about voicing any of his numerous characters, Mel Blanc stated that he merely managed the characters. At first, he said those things so the kids would still watch the show, fearing they would not if they knew they were not real. That set a standard most actors have followed.[citations needed] The year that Blanc first played the character is noted in parentheses.
