Heartbreaking Details About Froggy From The Little Rascals

- Starting in 1922, the Our Gang shorts (also known as The Little Rascals) were an iconic part of the early days of film. One of the many child stars of the series was Billy Laughlin, who played the raspy-voiced Froggy. Laughlin made his first appearance in 1940, and while the series only lasted a few more years after that, he still managed to make a name for himself.
Sadly, Laughlin wasn’t able to make a career out of acting once the shorts ended, though, which was just one sad fact of his life. From the horrible bullying he faced in school to his tragic death at a young age, let’s take a look at some heartbreaking details about Billy Laughlin, who played Froggy on The Little Rascals.

@Ellen Feldon Uhh...yes, it was.

@@misham2563 huh, yea ur right
Their stories were tragic, this didn't mention Darla dying after surgery or even Pete the dog being poisoned
What happened to Darla? And when and how and what if?

Michol Akinola she died after surgery
I think baby the parrot was farted on by jimmy the ghost. very tragic.
Josh H ...you you you cad!.....may the curse of The Little Rascals be upon your very soul!
They made a remake of the Little Rascals, but the original ones were better. The kids in the old ones were like mini adults. RIP Froggy! Blessings and prayers to your family.
Lol pray for them? They probably dead by now
you guys sure are positive as hell
@Jello Mello lmao and how does that affect them just curious?
They made 2 remakes, do you think that way about both of them?

Sad but kids are dying tragically somewhere in this cold world as we speak

Not to mention the sexual abuse they suffered over the years of filming...but that's a different story.
Wait what
Huh
Look it up, it's really sad tbh. Alfalfa (Bug hall) recently came out with a youtube video explaining the years of abuse he suffered being a child star in Hollywood. I wouldn't doubt for a second that these kids went through the same thing.
@@itspierre8228 This video is about an actor from the original Our Gang films of the 1920s-40s, not the 1994 remake.

I didn’t know that a movie could have a cruel backstory
this is the old show but the movie has had its moments with actors dealing with sexual abuse and such

Is that the only time in this video we get to hear it?

Froggy sounds like the gummy bear guy who made music 10 years ago
10 years ago? try like 12 years ago

@@yeriina4198 yes? can i help you?
12 years ago? Wow this is the first time I’ve felt old :/
That was 12 years ago? Felt like 1 year ago.
When l was a kid I was running around and had a pencil in my hand. My dad told me, "Don't run around with a pencil in your hand! The boy that played Froggy did that, tripped, fell, and jabbed himself with the pencil. That's why he sounds the way he does." That story freaked me out for years. Today I found out that it wasn't true.
😳
Holy hell. Well, guess growing up you didn’t run with a pencil which was good. But damn. ✏️ 🏃🏼♀️
What else did he tell you that you later on found out to be not to be true...story like that ,there has to be others.
This is incorrect. Both Froggy and his friend were killed in this accident. The driver of the truck which hit them survived.
Yea how would a person survive a crash with a speeding TRUCK? Feel bad for them tho :(
@@nightarcher55 exactly
No his friend survived
@@cheahweiren7638 No both Froggy and his Cousin George were killed in this accident.

They all died pretty tragically. We have this DVD collection that came with a book that had a page about them after the little rascals

You can find them on UA-cam

Didn't Bill Cosby buy the rights?
You can get them on DVD
@@whatsshakinbaconnothinjust2986 That’s great! I really loved to their shows when I was a kid. Thanks for the info 😃
Froggy used his real voice in the one where the gang, unbeknownst to him is planning a surprise party, and he dresses as a girl to get in. He also briefly used his actually voice in Radio Bugs, a 1943 Our Gang comedy when his "Froggy" voice kept causing the radio to short out.
And in the film: 1, 2, 3 go.
7 year old got a deeper voice than me (15)

Anybody else wanna give Billy and the actors that passed a hug? THEY DESERVED HUGS 😭
Omg. I didn't know these 3 passed away so young 😢
Even more passed away young too....
I gotta say that’s a damn good popeye impression for a kid
True
This was the not the 1994 lil rascals this is the 1940's one
what
I think that it wasn't set in the title because these Little Rascals could be considered as the originals. Most of the time only the remakes get the dates set to showcase the difference.
The fact that the majority of comments are reminiscing over the 90s version and movie and not the og makes me super sad. My grandma had me hooked on Little Rascals as a kid. Still have all the original VHS compendium tapes that they made in like the late 80s early 90s.
My dad was born in 69 and grew up watching these. He used to tell some of the stories to my sister and I before bed. Alfalfa will forever be my favourite
He has a UA-cam channel if u wanna watch him. He exposes holloweird

Great show! Rascals and The Twilight Zone are the greatest black and white shows ever.
They're up there.
But I gotta go with The Honeymooners.
And three stooges!
Don’t forget The Munsters!!! lol I love them too
Mr. Ed or Lassie...
twilight zone has a little girl who was killed by her father
I had no clue that The Little Rascals started as as anything before the movie that came out (relativity) recently. Lol I was so confused. I’m only 26, so you can’t really blame me too much.
I'm 26 and I watched The Little Rascals as a child before the movie ever came out.
Same
For me it was the opposite. I'm 25 and I saw the series first, but I have old parents so that's probably why. I have some VHS tapes of the show somewhere. I somehow didn't know about the movie until I was like 10 when my brother saw at it a blockbuster and begged my mom to rent it for us.
Only 26 lol your almost 30 you can only use youth as excuse for so long
@@jenniferpimentel9116
The movie came out in 1994 and you were -if I calculated right- were born in 1995.
Did you watch b&w Our Gang flicks from your mama's ovaries with tiny X-ray binoculars or what?
My grandma had old disks of theses and we would watch them in the tv on her old dodge caravan
I hope these kids are in heaven now. :(
r.i.p
Was way ahead of its time. The fact we know about this show nearly a century after it went dark goes to ahow how timeless it is. It is a shame that the actors in faced such terrible real life issues. Unfortunately, such were the times they were living.
I heard paper route and in my mind I went “And he was hit by a truck”
This is how I got my nickname from my uncle 🐸🤓😁

I miss them. Always got home back from school in the 70’s and turned on The Little Rascals. 😢 Childhood memories
Bobby "Wheezer" Hutchins was 20 when he died not 19 and Norman "Chubby" Chaney was 21 when he died not 22.
They didn't mention when froggy did the little rascals movie?
I thought it was a character for the 90s movie
It’s so sad that that happened to him. RIP Froggy aka Billy He’ll forever be missed
The kid was a genius he made a voice that made him have something unique to offer...it made him different
R.I.p billy
I didnt even know that theres a show before The Little Rascal
@Rik Mehta 3 months later, did it work?
Froggie’s sister played the court officer in the tv show about night court in the 70’s
In one "Our Gang"episode, "One, Two, Three Go!" Froggy had to change his voice and used his actual one because the microphones he spoke into exploded when he used his "real" voice.
His popeye impression is genius
I had to do a double take when I heard him speak.
I live a block away from where he died. Rip Froggy
Amazing the see this story here. I live next door to his parents in La Puente when I was 5. They were the nicest people and told us how Froggy died. They treated my older sister, younger brother, and me very well.
Poor guy.
R.I.P Milky bar kid.....
1922, wow that is early!
And the 1923 episode 🤦🏽♀️
I can still hear the calming chearfull little rascals theme song in my head
Thank you for this. 🙏❤️
I STILL WATCH THE LITTLE RASCALS
Froggy was my favorite! I looked like him as a kid minus the glasses and cross eye RIP
That show was cursed.....how everyone die so young? Jesus.....
awwww.. RIP FROGGY!
🐾Thank you Haul Roach, thank you Our Gang. We love all of you. The whole cast, wriers, artists, directors and so on. Tasteful intertainment. Take a bow.🌹
0:47 activated my Siri 😂
R.I.P Billy
I was obsessed with this show when I was younger!!! so sad that they’re all dead
They’re not all dead, there’s one living rascal left, and he’s in prison bc im pretty sure he killed someone
The best Froggy ep is "Surprised Parties" where Froggy booby-traps the Gang's party not realizing it's a suprise party for *him* and then attends the party in drag to watch the mayhem, then has to set all the traps on himself once he realizes his error. "Puddin' Tane - ask me again and I'll tell you the same!"
Never knew there was an old series. Only knew the 90s movie
Is it me or does Billy sound like hes having a stroke and an asthma attack as the same time..? .______.
Rip froggy😭
Much love and respect to your froggy
To all of the “Gang”, thanks for the laughs. I watched these guys and gals in the 70’s and they were hilarious.
May these souls sleep in peace😢 so sad & so young to leave. i didn’t know any of them passed away till now
Hi Pamela.
That was my favorite show. We watched it every Sunday.
The Little Rascals was a Grate tv show ! Big fun it was ....
So very sad!

Hello friend

Hi how are you and hope all is okay with you🙂
I haven't heard about them in a long time. The last survivors from Little Rascals are Robert Blake, Sidney Kibrick and Mildred Korman.
Thank you
Omg i remember this movie i loved it so much watching at my grandmother's house
Well, that was quite depressing....
But then he grew up to become Bubbles from Trailer Park Boys.
A happy ending.
🤦🏾♂️👀when you thought it was ONLY 1 Littles rascals movie.... now I MUST do a deep dive into OLD Cinema🔥🔥💯
Literally watched Little Rascals with my 2yo daughter last night and Im 22 and I remember it as a kid
Well. that's just sad all around.
Damn he got killed by a Foo in La Puente of all places ..
Rest in peace, rascals. Thank you for laughs. 😁
Omg that was hilarious. Ahhh I needed a good laugh 🤣😂 thanks
Iove it. There were this best especially wen they build that fire. Engine in LMFAO .they were gr8. It made . It made e vvrrrr body laugh
Did you have a stroke typing this?
How funny that he got that voice from using a Pop-eye puppet.
i love him on the little rascals froggy
I grew up watching the little rascals and to now just learn that alot of them passed away due to tragic circumstances is shocking
I was creeped out by him as a child...
I liked him as a child. I'm creeped out by him now and that MGM series isn't any close to watchable today. In fact the last couple of years with Roach was barely tolerable.
A lot of people get creeped out by people with that eye issue. I have it and I have been shunned by both kids and adults.
@@katybrennan8222 his voice was creepy
@@katybrennan8222 no, nothing to do with his eyes, just his voice.

They all had tragic stories, the world of Hollywood has always been tragic but back then it was absolutely horrific
Omg im so broken 💔 this is tragedy
If you guys remember this you are old very old
If you guys remember this you're most likely dead :)
Three stooges is tops for me
I used to watch both on tv in the mornings before going to school!
I grew up watching this show loved it
We’re quickly approaching 100 years on these films.
*Kills/Dies over $50: It's about the {PRINCIPAL}
no, but $50 was a lot of money back then... I wonder if the killer got to keep and spend it.
How tf did he develop a deep raspy froggy voice bye playing with a popeye toy
It was probably a talking toy so he probably mimicked how it sounded
I used to an impression of froggy growing up. I wasn’t born until the 70’s. I never knew he was killed so young. So sad
