This guy has a memorable voice. I was just watching Dexter's Lab on Boomerang yesterday and thinking about how annoying Mandark is. I always wish I could punch most of the character's he's voiced in the face.

It's so funny because everytime I watch Rock-A-Doodle or The Polar Express or anything I've heard with his voice I always think "There's Mandark!" Then I half expect to hear that Mandark laugh.

He defiantly got some annoying roles. But fun annoying roles.

I miss "Life With Louie"! That was such a great show!

I agree with you, he does have one of the more reconizable voices in the VA feild. I miss Dexter's Lab though. Mandark was actualy one of my favorite characters.

I think Hamm of Mother Goose and Grimmy was where I first discovered Eddie's unique voice. And I agree... Mandark is one of my favorite characters... especially that crush he has on DeeDee. The voice really sells that character.

You can see a breif cameo by Eddie in the beginning of the movie Spy Hard.... there's a scene in which someone says to the female lead, "You're the spitting image of your mother..." so she spits on Eddie who in turn says "You're taking this spitting imaging too literally, lady."

I DID find him annoying as the Caliph in "Scooby-Doo's Arabian Nights," but that whole movie was awful anyways (it was a rip-off of "Tiny Toon Adventures" and "Animaniacs," IMHO), and I remember when Gibby Norton showed up in an episode of "What's New, Scooby-Doo?" I was checking out, I instantly thought "Hey that's Mandark's voice!" Same as when I saw some of "The Polar Express."
