  • Mr. Paulsen has been one of the voices for G.I. Joe, The Tranformers, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and Animaniacs, as Yakko Warner, Dr. Otto von Scratchensniff, and Pinky of Pinky and the Brain. This was all handheld with people on both sides of me, not the easiest to shoot.

    As he's a great friend of mine, I can assure he does not ever get tired of doing it. Sweetest man I've ever known. I actually jokingly asked him once when he'll stop singing it. He grinned and said "When people stop asking." :)

      probably 5 days at most in perfect time and such for the recording. Rob is from a singer background so once you have a musical brain its easy to do music memory. i havent sang it in at least 5 years and i can still do Eric Whitacre's Sleep

    Animaniacs came out and got canceled before I was even born. I was born on December 15, 2003. My 13 year old brother Masroor (December 3, 2006) showed me Yakko's World with the coronavirus cases so I wouldn't fear about the pandemic during quarantine. Somewhere around May 14, 2020, I got really into Animaniacs, and I am excited for the reboot which is coming out on November 20, 2020.
