It's a while since we had a new trivia game and being the bunch of geeks that we are I know I can't be the only one who loves cartoons (Cartoon Network is my joint favourite TV station with Living TV). So lets have a trivia game for cartoons, old, new, good, bad and ugly.
I'll start (natch).
Which Powerpuff Girls character put in a brief appearance in the first episode of Foster's Home For Imaginary Friends?
[ March 24, 2005, 02:49 AM: Message edited by: Bevis ]
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
Well I have a one in three chance:
I would say Bubbles. I think she had an imaginary friend in one episode of her own show.
Posted by Bevis on :
Nope, not Bubbles.
When I say Powerpuff Girls character by the way, it's a character from the show rather than specifically one of the girls (which kinda gives a hint that it's *not* one of the girls, but...)
Posted by Reboot on :
The dad-guy in the white coat (Professor or Doctor, I don't want to remember which, since I've traumatically repressed my memory of seeing that show)
Posted by Bevis on :
Aww, Reboot, Powerpuff Girls is *genius*.
But you're wrong, it's not the Professor.
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
I'll make one more guess:
Ms Keen, the Kindergarden teacher
Posted by DrakeB3004 on :
What's "Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends"?
Anyways, I'll guess Mojo Jojo
Posted by Chaim Mattis Keller on :
Could it be Bubbles' doll Octy the Octopus?
Posted by Bevis on :
Drake has it. Mojo appeared as an unimaginative imaginary friend for a couple of seconds.
Foster's is from the same people that did Powerpuff Girls and is fantastically funny. No idea what channel it'll be on in the States, but since it's on Cartoon Network here I'd guess it'd be the same there (but you never know). Worth checking out just for Eduardo and Frankie.
Posted by DrakeB3004 on :
My inaugural question for this thread (great idea, btw Bevis!)has to be about "The Adventures of the Galaxy Rangers" because that was my favorite cartoon as a kid: What was Zachary Fox' wife's name? Posted by l.e.g.i.o.n.JOHN on :
OOOOOO good one Drake, i think her name was Eliza fox
Posted by DrakeB3004 on :
You got it! (poor woman never did wake up did she?)
Posted by l.e.g.i.o.n.JOHN on :
quote:Originally posted by DrakeB3004: You got it! (poor woman never did wake up did she?)
Yeah too bad they never did another season so we could've found out Eliza's fate.
ok heres my trivia Question it's a two parter;in the "Perils of Penelope Pitstop" what was the name of her antagonist and what was the name of her protectors.
Posted by Reboot on :
Well, the protectors were the Ant Hill Mob. As for the antagnonist, I just recall that it was her guardian under another name (and cloak).
[ March 25, 2005, 05:10 PM: Message edited by: Reboot ]

Were the bad guys Dastardly and Muttley? Or was that a different show...?
Posted by Lightning Lad on :

Sylvester Sneekly, aka the Hooded Claw.
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
quote:Originally posted by lancesrealm: Were the bad guys Dastardly and Muttley? Or was that a different show...?
Dastardly & Muttley were part of the show. I'm not sure of the order, but you would have the Perile of Penelope Pitsop then Dastardly & Muttley in their flying machines (trying to stop a carrier pigeon)
Posted by Bevis on :
Dastardly and Muttley weren't in Penelope Pitstop, but they *were* in Wacky races with Penelope and the Ant Hill Mob and all those others. Wacky Races *rocks*.
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
Did some research, Dastardly & Muttley also had a spin off show from Wacky Racers. It aired at 9:30 and Penelope aired at 10:00. Which Is probably why I thought they were on the same show, but separate.
Well, at least that explains why I got them confused. Amazing that I still remember - at least in part - cartoons I watched when I was 4.
Posted by l.e.g.i.o.n.JOHN on :
Hmmmm,...what to do? Reboot got one part of the question right but not the identity of the Hooded Claw but Lightning Lad got the Hooded Claw answer. Bevis i leave it to your judgement to who winner is or should i ask another question?
Posted by Bevis on :
It was your question John, so it's your call, but I'd say Reboot should have the next question just because he got half the question right first (if you see what I mean).
Posted by l.e.g.i.o.n.JOHN on :
ok then Reboot it is. your turn sir.
Posted by Reboot on :
Well, have to make my first question on this thread about the cartoon I took my nick, avatar & sig quote from It's a sitter if you know the series at all tho
What was the name of [Enzo] Matrix's girlfriend?

I'm blanking on a bunch of toons at the moment so here's an pretty easy one if you watched the show.
Who were the 3 new members of the Thundercats that joined the team later in the shows run?

Next Q: What name did Wu Fei give his Shenlong Gundam?
Posted by DrakeB3004 on :
Hmm... there's no real way to hint at it, so I'll just give the answer -- "Nataku".
Ok, an easier one this time: Which Bionic 6 villain had a big metallic hand?

Who was the first ongoing animated character to become nationally famous?
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
Bosco
Posted by Lightning Lad on :
Nope. This character predates Bosko by over a decade.
[ April 15, 2005, 09:26 AM: Message edited by: Lightning Lad ]
Posted by DrakeB3004 on :
Winsor McCay's Gertie the Dinosaur?
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
I'll take one more guess. Felix the Cat
Posted by Lightning Lad on :
Nope to both but McCay did involuntarily have a hand in the creation of this character.
Posted by Lightning Lad on :
Commander McBragg is a 'descendant' (character type-wise) of this character. The cartoon even mixed in some live action shots.
Posted by Chaim Mattis Keller on :
Is that Colonel Heeza Liar?
Posted by Lightning Lad on :
That's him Chaim. The good colonel started in 1913 and was the first truly nationally famous cartoon character. He was invented by John Bray who learned how to do animation by stealing the idea from Winsor McCay. Bray actually posed as a reporter and McCay gladly showed him how it was done. Bray then turned around and patented the process for himself.
On to you Chaim.

Here's one particularly appropriate for this message board...on what cartoon did a character named "Matter-Mucher Lad" appear?
Posted by Chaim Mattis Keller on :
That should say, "Muncher."
Posted by l.e.g.i.o.n.JOHN on :
was it "Fairly Odd parents"?
Posted by Chaim Mattis Keller on :
Indeed it was, John. The episode plot had involved Timmy (as the Crimson Chin's sidekick, IIRC) attending a school for super-hero kids, and that obvious homage to Tenzil Kem was amongst his school-mates.
Posted by Lightning Lad on :
Wasn't there also a Bouncing 'Boil' in that same episode?
Posted by l.e.g.i.o.n.JOHN on :
i think there was, but it was funny how they kinda "dissed" Hawkgirl.
here's one for any of you 80's buffs, name all six Mighty Orbots.

Actually Chip and Dale were chipmunks, not mice.
And Bevis is right, it was C&D's Rescue Rangers.

Posted by DrakeB3004 on :

i know that this is probably the wrong one but i'm gonna go with Skyfire.
Posted by DrakeB3004 on :
Was he one of the Autobot jets? Either way, I'm thinking of one of the originals - from the beginning of the series. He was an autobot that transformed into a car. Another hint - he "loaned" his flying ability to Optimus early on in the show.

Skyfire wasn't a G1 Autobot. He came, I think, in season 3.

After doing some searching, the only actual Autobot who could fly was Mirage, and he had to use a jet pack to do that. The writers later on made it so all the Autobots could fly.

I have to wonder where you got that information becuase it's *incorrect!* There was indeed an autobot with a jetpack before they all were granted the ability to fly, but it wasn't Mirage.

I remember watching it while young. Gary Gulliver was so dreamy. So I am preety sure it was made in the late 60's early 70's.
Gie me tonight to think of a good question.
LAM yours was good. The first time I saw it I thought "this must be some Australian cartoon I never heard of". But then saying Flirticia's name in my head triggered the memory.

Posted by Blacula on :
I'm pretty sure that 2 of them were Green Arrow and Plastic Man. Not sure about the third though - Flash? Or was he already a member?
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
You have it Blacula.
The order of guest appearance was:
1) Plastic Man who reached inside a giant computer to retrieve a mouse who was causing the computer & everything it controlled to go haywire.
2) The Flash who wraped copper wiring around the Earth so as to pull the Earth back into it's correct orbit.
3) Green Arrow who, although shrunk, freed the also shrunk superfriends who had been captured.
Personal note. I think this was my first exposure to the Flash and I have loved the caracter ever since.

Name the cartoon from which these lyrics came:
"When in Rome, you do as the Romans do and make everybody welcome"
Apologies for being so late, i had some bad news earlier this morning...
Posted by Rockhopper Lad on :
"Get on your chariot, come this way. Come on and meet the Roman Holidays."
That would be The Roman Holidays.

Damn! Should have thought up a harder one - over to you, mon cher Rockhopper...
Posted by Rockhopper Lad on :
Okay...
Which celebrity appeared on The Flintstones, playing him/herself, without their name being changed to something with "rock" or "stone", etc..
Posted by lancesrealm on :
Rock Hudson?
Posted by Rockhopper Lad on :
Nope. He didn't appear on the show, although there was a character named Rock Quarry who appeared in one episode. Next guess?
Posted by Blacula on :
I have no idea but...
Bob Hope?
Posted by Rockhopper Lad on :
Not Bob Hope. Here's a hint: He appeared as an animated version of himself, but he was not an actor.

I don't know his name but he played "Yabba Dabba Dabba Doo" on a grand piano...
Posted by Rockhopper Lad on :
That's the guy. Anyone remember his name?
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
Jimmy Durante?
Posted by Rockhopper Lad on :
Good guess, but no.
Posted by Rockhopper Lad on :
Here's another hint: He was a well-known writer of popular songs in the mid-20th Century.
Posted by Vee on :
Hoagy Carmichael?
Posted by Rockhopper Lad on :
Yay Vee!
Hoagy Carmichael appeared as himself.
Some other celebrities, notably Ann-Margaret and Tony Curtis, also appeared as themselves, but they were called "Ann Margrock" and "Stony Curtis". And, of course, Elizabeth Montgomery and Dick York appeared in character as Samantha and Darrin in one episode.
Your turn.

Posted by Vee on :
Good job Stratum. You're up!
Posted by Stratum on :
Okay....saw this the other day.
Which DC writer also has writing credits for a cartoon currently running on Cartoon Network?
For bonus points, tell me which TV show he was on a few years back as a regular cast member?
Jamie
Posted by legionadventureman on :
Bill Mumy - Lost In Space?
Posted by Lightning Lad on :
Is it Seth Green? I can't remember who his new comic is being published by but I want to say its one of the DC lines. And of course he was Oz on Buffy.
Posted by Stratum on :
No, it's neither Bill Mumy or Seth Green. I believe Greens's comic is under and Image or TC imprint.
Jamie
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
Would that be Judd Winnick, who was a regular cast member on the Real World?
Posted by Stratum on :
Ding! Good job Quis.
Winnick has credit for, "The Life and Times of Juniper Lee".
Jamie
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
OK. In the early sixties, Hanna-Barbera had cartoons featuring a cute little duck named Yakky Doodle, what was the name of Yakky's best friend?
Bonus: what was the name of the two "villians" of the cartoons and what famous person was one of them a caricature of?
Posted by Stratum on :
Chopper...he was a dog right?
Don't remember the villains names tho', nor the caricature one was based on.
Jamie
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
Maybe I should have just asked the bonus question and this would have lasted longer.
Chopper the dog is the correct answer. "You better close your eyes, Yakky" "OK Chopper"
The two villians were Fibber Fox and Alfy Gator (who was a caricature of Alfred Hitchcock)
Posted by Stratum on :
LOL!
Name the actor who portrayed Captain Marvel in the JLU episode 'Clash'?
Jamie I was going to ask for all the actors who portrayed the Big Red Cheese but there six or seven of them. <G>
Posted by legionadventureman on :
Jamie,
I could tell you who portrayed CM in the "Shazam!" TV Show: Jackson Bostwick and John Davey
But that doesnt answer the question...grrrr
Brian
Posted by Stratum on :
Hehe....
Brian, I figured most here would know that. I figured that since many folks here grew up with Shazam! and Isis we'd get that fairly quickly.
Jamie
Posted by legionadventureman on :
D'OH!
Posted by legionadventureman on :
Jerry O'Connell played Captain Marvel in "Clash"

*bumping as a reminder to Quislet*
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
Boy did I need a remind for this thread.
OK. One of the studio singers for Josie & the Pussycats went on to star in a TV series. Who was this singer/actress?
Posted by Outdoor Miner on :
I'll throw a name out there for the heck of it, though I may regret it if I'm right: Cheryl Ladd.
Posted by lancesrealm on :
I'm sure this is correct - she started as a singer and went on to Charlie's Angels.
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
Yup, it was Cheryl Ladd
Posted by Outdoor Miner on :
Dang, I'm good.
Not good enough to have a question ready, though. Be back in a bit.
Posted by legionadventureman on :
Oh damn...I had such a good question planned, too.. Posted by Outdoor Miner on :
Well, you can ask it if you get this question right:
What is the "Reflex Gun", and on which cartoon was it seen?
Posted by DrakeB3004 on :
Ummm, it's a gun that enhances your reflexes and it was used by Wile E. Coyote in a "Roadrunner" cartoon??
Posted by Outdoor Miner on :
Nope.
Though I'd pay to see that.
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
Wasn't it used on Starblazers. It was the giant gun that made up most of the Yamato
Posted by Outdoor Miner on :
Bingo!
It was the super secret weapon that everybody, and I mean everybody, knew about.
Over to you, Quis.
Posted by Blacula on :
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :

OK, in the Ralph Bakshi Mighty Mouse, the Cow challenges the League of Super-Rodents and manages to defeat them all except the last one. Which member of the League of Super-Rodents defeated the Cow.

Close enough. It was the Rampaging Sloth

This might be familiar to cartoon viewers of the mid to late 60's:
"Five drops of essence of terror Five drops of sinister sauce When the work is done - may I lick the spoon?"
If anybody can remember the rest of the dialogue, the kewpie doll is their's! Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
you've stumped me with this one.
maybe a hint or two would help
Posted by Rockhopper Lad on :
Is that Milton the Monster? I never saw it, but I read that somewhere.
Posted by legionadventureman on :
Ah Rockhopper, I hope there is room for a Kewpie Doll in your condo, congrats! Posted by legionadventureman on :
For the benefit of those who didn't get it, here is the rest of the dialogue:
Of course, ha ha, of course! Now for a tincture of tenderness, for I must only use a touch For without a touch of tenderness, he might destroy me (oops! too much) Better hold your breath, he's starting to tick Better hold my hand - I'm feeling sick! "Hello Daddy!" "What have I done???" "I'm Milton...your brand-new son...."
Posted by Blacula on :
Rockhopper Lad seems to be MIA so here's an easy question to get this game moving again.
What were the names of the Flintstones' and the Rubble's children?
Posted by Matthew E on :
Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm, respectively.
Posted by Blacula on :
Yabba-Dabba-Yes Matthew E.
Take it away.
Posted by Matthew E on :
What cartoon featured (among other characters) talking computerized cars named Wheels and Roadie, and a little mammal named Kuma who didn't belong to any standard species?
Posted by DrakeB3004 on :
Pole Position?
Posted by Matthew E on :
Pole Position is right.
Posted by DrakeB3004 on :
What was the name of Green Lantern's alien sidekick in the old '60's toon?
Posted by Lightning Lad on :
Didn't he have blue skin? Kyto or Kyro, something like that.
Posted by Calybos on :
I believe it was Kiro, a little blue guy who served the same story role as Lois Lane--get in trouble and scream for help a lot.
Posted by DrakeB3004 on :
I've seen it spelled a couple of different ways, but Lightning lad got it -- "Kyro" fits the bill!
Posted by Lightning Lad on :
Okay, here's a quick one since I haven't been able to come up with something good this week.
What was the name of the wizard in Fantasia?
Posted by Bicycle Repair Man on :
I seem to remember reading that it was supposed to be "Yensid Tlaw" ("Walt Disney" in Zatanna-speak ).
Posted by Lightning Lad on :
That's the anser I was looking for BRM!
Posted by Bicycle Repair Man on :
Yay me!
The next question concerns the Warner Bros cartoons of the Golden Age. In the long-running conflict between Elmer Fudd and Bugs Bunny, on those occasions when Elmer believed he had succeeded in killing Bugs, he almost always regretted it instantly. I can think of one cartoon where Elmer actually enjoyed his (apparent) victory, for the few seconds before he realized that Bugs was still alive. Name the cartoon, or at least descibe it in sufficient detail for sure identification.
Posted by Calybos on :
Well, he was pretty pumped in the opera spoof when he "killed da wabbit." Is that the one you mean?
Posted by Bicycle Repair Man on :
Nope, Elmer really does win in What's Opera, Doc? And he's blubbering like a baby as he carries Bugs's body towards Valhalla.
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
I can't remember the name, but is it the one where Bugs (supposedly in his hole and out of sight) goes "I'm kicking the bucket, Doc." Literally kicks a bucket behind Elmer. Elmer goes "Hurray! The Rabbit kicked the bucket." Bugs then grabs Elmer's hands and they dance around singing "The Rabbit kicked the bucket! The Rabbit kicked the bucket!" As Elmer wises up Bugs does give the line "The bucket kicked the Rabbit."
Posted by Bicycle Repair Man on :
We have a winner!
The business Quislet, Esq describes occurs near the beginning of Robot Rabbit. Elmer is trying to stop Bugs from raiding his vegetable garden, and calls Acme Pest Control for help. They send him a robot exterminator "with an ewectwonic bwain" and the bulk of the cartoon consists of Bugs clashing with the robot.
Over to Quislet, Esq.
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
OK. Warner Brothers also did a series of cartoons where the characters of books and magazines came to life. In one, Daffy Duck makes an appearance. The question is what song did Daffy sing and which character did Daffy try to save?
Posted by Rockhopper Lad on :
I remember he was doing a Danny Kaye character and was singing "Nothing could be feena than to be in Caroleena in the morrrrr-nink."
Whom does he try to save? Hmmm. I'm drawing a blank at the moment.
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
Well, that is half of it. I might as well give it to you.
He tried to save Little Red Riding Hood. He tries to warn her about the wolf in a scat song.
Posted by Rockhopper Lad on :
That's right! "The better to eat you with..."
Keeping with the Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies theme, what was the name of the diminutive gangster who disguised himself as an infant to hide in Bugs Bunny's hole?
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
Baby Face Fenster
Posted by Rockhopper Lad on :
"Oh dear, I do believe I have forgotten my fudge!"
That is correct.
Back up to you, Quis.
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
Gee! I better come up with a question to stump Rockhopper Lad or people will think we are in collusion.
Hmmmm........
OK. In the Bugs Bunny cartoon where he tries to help a little penguin go home, where was the penguin's birthplace?
Posted by Rockhopper Lad on :
"Hoboken??? Oooh! I'm dyyyin'!!!"
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
"Pen-goo-ins taste just like chicken!"
"Pardon me, but could you help a fellow American down on his luck?"
I guess I couldn't stump you with a penguin question could I?
[ April 26, 2006, 02:53 PM: Message edited by: Quislet, Esq. ]
Posted by Rockhopper Lad on :
Probably not.
Okay, we'll change this a bit.
An instrumental version of what song served as the opening theme of Davey and Goliath?
Posted by Matthew E on :
'Sympathy for the Devil'.
Just kidding.
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
I can hear in my mind the dah-dah-dut-dut-dut dut-dut-dut-dah.
Total guess is "Near my God to Thee".
Now I'll go google the answer.
And I was wrong
[ April 27, 2006, 10:18 AM: Message edited by: Quislet, Esq. ]
Posted by Rockhopper Lad on :
I'll give a hint which will either make a dead giveaway or will be of no help at all: The show was produced by Lutherans.
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
I knew the show was produced by the Lutherans and that wouldn't have helped me guess the song. I suspect that if you are Lutheran then that clue will be a dead giveaway.
Posted by Matthew E on :
Okay, then, serious guess: 'A Mighty Fortress'?
Posted by Rockhopper Lad on :
Matthew is correct. "A Mighty Fortress" was the theme song. The song is attributed to Martin Luther and, in certain musical circles, is very much associated with Lutheranism.
Posted by Matthew E on :
Holy moley. I didn't really expect to be right. I don't know a freaking thing about Lutheranism.
Okay, next question. On the old cartoon 'Godzilla' (you know, the one featuring Godzooky the baby godzilla), the characters traveled around the seven seas on a research ship. What was the name of the ship?
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
Calypso was Jacques Cousteau's ship
I think I'll need a hint
Posted by Matthew E on :
'Calypso' is actually extremely close in sound to the name of the ship we're looking for.
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
I thought so.
Hmmmm....... Their ship wouldn't have been the Cousteau, would it?
Posted by Matthew E on :
Nope. Even closer in sound than that.
Posted by Calybos on :
"Callisto"?
Posted by Matthew E on :
No.
Posted by DrakeB3004 on :
The Crisco?
Posted by Matthew E on :
Yeah, that's it. It was the Crisco. And every episode, the scientists would grease themselves up and service Godzooky. I don't know how they got that past the Saturday morning censors.
If we're going to do this according to the sound of the word, 'Callisto' and 'Calypso' are equally close in sound. 'Cousteau' and 'Crisco' rather further away. And the name we're looking for is associated with the animal kingdom, but is not itself the name of an animal.
Posted by Lance's realm on :
Crustacean?
Posted by Matthew E on :
No.
By the way, did anyone watch this show? Am I the only one who remembers it?
"Up from the depths Thirty stories high..."
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
Matthew,
I never really watched the show, but I do remember it. The theme song is very memorable.
...and Godzuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuki!
Posted by Lance's realm on :
Calico?
Posted by Matthew E on :
Finally!
'Calico' is correct.
Posted by Lance's realm on :
Ok..ummm...about the only cartoons I watch anymore are kid's shows, so...
On "Clifford the Big Red Dog," what is Emily Elizabeth's last name?
Posted by matlock on :
Howard, I believe. Because her love made Clifford grow so big that the Howards had to leave their home, according to the theme.
Posted by Lance's realm on :
That's it, matlock. Take it away...
Posted by matlock on :
What series takes place in Elwood City?
Posted by walkwithcrowds on :
In the Smurfs, what was the name of Gargamell's cat. This isn't really a quiz as I don't know the answer and it's driving me daft.
Posted by Matthew E on :
walkwithcrowds: Fifteen seconds with a search engine could have produced this answer for you, but if you'd rather do it this way, it's Azrael.
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
Elwood City??? It doesn't ring any bells with me. I'll need a hint. Although it may be too early to start giving hints.
Posted by walkwithcrowds on :
Yeah, but this ways more fun.
Sorry Matlock. The floors all yours.
Elwood City?
As you said "takes place" I'll assume it's a current program, sooo... The Powerpuff Girls? (are they still makeing that?)
Posted by matlock on :
Nope, not Powerpuff Girls, which I think is still airing here in the States, though I don't know if it's still in production or not. The show in question is still airing and still in production too, I believe.
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
Would it be Krypto?
Posted by Chaim Mattis Keller on :
Arthur.
Posted by walkwithcrowds on :
Any clues? Is it a "Kiddie" show or one of those with jokes for the mums and dads to get?
Posted by matlock on :
Chaim got it. It's another wholesome family show like Clifford, but it's pretty funny.
Posted by Chaim Mattis Keller on :
Yeah, Arthur's great. In one episode, they even riffed on "South Park" a little. I love when kiddie shows throw in stuff for adults to enjoy.
OK, new question now: name thre enemies of Mermaidman and Barnacle Boy.
Posted by DrakeB3004 on :
The Tick and Arthur??
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
I am pretty sure that Mermaidman & Barnacle Boy are from Spongebob Squarepants. But I can't think of who their enemies might be. If I see the episode again, I'll come back with the answer.
Posted by matlock on :
The Dirty Bubble, Man Ray and... well, Barnacle Boy turned evil that time and became Barnacle Man, so he could have the adult size Krabby Patty. Does that count?
Posted by Chaim Mattis Keller on :
What the heck, I'll give that one to you, matlock. The other one I was thinking of was the Atomic Flounder. I'm pretty sure a few others were named, and if someone said one of those and it rang a bell to me, I'd give credit.
Next question to you, matlock.
Drake, Arthur refers to Arthur the Aardvark (not that he looks much like an aardvark anymore), created by Marc Brown. His show airs on PBS.
Posted by DrakeB3004 on :
quote:Originally posted by Chaim Mattis Keller: Drake, Arthur refers to Arthur the Aardvark (not that he looks much like an aardvark anymore), created by Marc Brown. His show airs on PBS.
Yeah, I know. I was answering the other question - wasn't the Tick's sidekick also named Arthur?
Posted by Chaim Mattis Keller on :
He was...but I don't see a question about the Tick on any of the recent pages.
Posted by Matthew E on :
Which is a shocking omission.
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :

No, Drake was answering your question about Mermaidman with "Tick and Arthur".

Oh...is there a character called Mermaidman in the Tick cartoon?
Water under the bridge by now, as you know, it was Spongebob characters I'm referring to.

In the Dungeons and Dragons cartoon, which person temporarily received the powers of Dungeon Master?
Posted by Matthew E on :
Rrrr... it was one of two. I'll guess Presto.
Posted by Lance's realm on :
Nope...try the other one...
Posted by walkwithcrowds on :
Bobby?
Posted by Matthew E on :
I'll let someone else do it; I had my guess.
Posted by Lance's realm on :
Not Bobby...
Posted by Calybos on :
I'd say it was Eric the Cavalier.
Posted by walkwithcrowds on :
Hank? I'm not too sure if that was his name but I meant the Ranger.
Posted by Lance's realm on :
Hank was the Ranger, but it was Eric who received Dungeon Master's powers. Pretty funny episode, too. Take it, Calybos...

Who is Charlie Brown's all-time favorite baseball hero?
Posted by Chaim Mattis Keller on :
Joe Shlabotnik
Posted by Chaim Mattis Keller on :
Joe Shlabotnik
Posted by Lance's realm on :
Can we get confirmation here?
Posted by Matthew E on :
I'm not Calybos, but 'Joe Shlabotnik' is correct.
Posted by Calybos on :
Sorry for the delay; Yes, Chaim's right.
Posted by Chaim Mattis Keller on :
Cool.
Name the cartoon Caveman and Mammoth who awoke in modern times, constantly seeking food and/or a way home.
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
Would that be Captain Caveman? If it is, I don't know the mammoth's name.
Posted by Chaim Mattis Keller on :
Nope. Hint: the caveman's and mammoth's names rhymed.
Posted by DrakeB3004 on :
Bonk and Gronk?
Posted by Chaim Mattis Keller on :
Nope.
One more hint: the mammoth's name was diminutive for a word for elephant.
Posted by walkwithcrowds on :
Total guess here:
Pac and Mac?
Posted by Chaim Mattis Keller on :
You're on the right track for the mammoth's name (variant of the same word), though it's still wrong, as is the caveman's.
Posted by walkwithcrowds on :
Pack and Jack?
Posted by walkwithcrowds on :
Or:
Derm and Sherm?
(Okay that was just silly!!!)
Posted by Chaim Mattis Keller on :
What the heck. I'll give the next question to walkwith crowds since he was at least trying.
The correct answer is "Wacky and Packy."
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
I never heard of them. Did they have their own show or were part of a larger show?
Posted by Chaim Mattis Keller on :
I got a bunch of these on a cheap DVD, headlined by Casper, so I don't have first-hand knowledge of its TV run. According to "The Big Cartoon Database" they were part of something called "Groovie Goolies and Friends".
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
I remember the Groovie Goolies. They were with Sabrina as a spin-off of the Archies. I don't remember the caveman.
Posted by walkwithcrowds on :
I think I remember the Groovie Goolies.
Were they the pop band made up of old Universal monsters? The Wolfman was a hippy and Frankies catchphrase was "I needed that", said in a slow "Monster Mash/Karloff" type of voice?
Anyway, next question:
What was the proper name (as opposed to the shortened/nickname version) of Hong Kong Phooeys' secret identity.
And didn't the old Hannah/Barbera cartoons have amazing theme tunes?
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
I know his first name was Henry. I can't remember his last name.
And yes they were great theme songs.
Posted by Lance's realm on :
I believe it was Penrod Pooch sometimes called Penry.
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
Just to keep the game running, I checked on the answer and that is correct. Your question Lance's realm
Posted by Lance's realm on :
I used to love that show! I'm sure I even have a Hong Kong Phooey comic book around here somewhere! Sing with me! "Hong Kong Phooey! something something superstar!" I can only half remember the lyrics, though. Ah, well, off we go...
In "Wheelie and the Chopper Bunch," what was the name of Wheelie's girlfriend?
Posted by walkwithcrowds on :
Hey Lance and Quis!
Sorry I'm late, traffic was murder.
Actually I've been having trouble with my modem.
Lance you got it right on the money so it is, of course, your turn.
I have no idea who wheelie's girl friend is though.
Posted by Lance's realm on :
I don't know how to give a hint here. Her name was Rota. Whoever wants the next question can have it.
Posted by Bevis on :
Well while I'm here I'll take it (since I've not known any answers for ages). Let's make it an easy one though...
Where was Danger Mouse's secret headquarters?
Posted by walkwithcrowds on :
In a postbox.
Another cartoon with a great theme tune.
Posted by Bevis on :
It was indeed in a post box. Any idea where the post box was? The next question is yours wwc since I was only looking for the post box answer but it'd be interesting if anyone can remember the location od the postbox.
DM was great, and i keep catching it late at night on Boomerang. The animation is... poor, for the most part, but it's still incredibly funny and clever. Also considering it was pretty much made by two guys in a shed (OK, not *quite*, but...) the animation isn't appaling.
Posted by walkwithcrowds on :
I think it was, either outside 10 Downing Street or Buckingham Palace, I'm not sure. I've still got my Danger Mouse Sticker Album somewhere, I'll look it out and check for you.
Okay, new question.
What was the name of the little green alien guy that appeared in a few episodes of the Flintstones?
Posted by Bevis on :
Oh, I know where DM's base was, just wondering if anyone else does.
As for your question, I can picture him and i think he turned up in the Jetsons as well but I'm completely blanking on what the hell he's called.
Posted by ActorLad on :
The Great Gazoo, who always called Fred "Dum-Dum"

Correct. I really enjoy FHFIF a ton, it never fails to get some good quality chuckles out of me.

Hawkgirl?

Well since she hasn't been guess I'll go with Diana.
Posted by Bevis on :
It was indeed Diana. Before you had the shot of the various heroes runnign down the steps you had the Big Three standing together talking about there still being threats and Diana said something along the lines of 'As long as there's a Justice League the world is in safe hands'. A nice little finish to the series I thought and a great final line.
You're up again AL.

In one ep of PowerPuff Girls they all took new superhero identities, what were they and which PPG was which ID?
Posted by Bevis on :
Oh gods, that's a fantastic episode but I bet I can't remember their actual character names. Blossom was essentially Wonder Woman crossed with Superman I think (ie: the classic bright superhero), Buttercup was a Batman/Spawn cross with a big swirling cape and her big goth car and Bubbles was, rather brilliantly, a manga bunny character throwing out love and kisses and flower stickers and stuff and hopped everywhere. The sequence where she reads the manga strip (in Japanese I think) with the bunny and the rock is one of the surrealist most brilliant pieces of animation ever in the entire world. Also their uselessness at fighting the monster in the episode is a sight to behold. I can't remember why Blossom is late but Buttercup gets stuck in the traffic and Bubbles is late because she is hopping everywhere and hence takes forever to get there. He he he.
So, like i say, i can't remeber their actual new superhero names though.
Posted by Kid Prime on :
Wasn't Buttercup called Mange?
And Bubbles was something like Happy Happy Fluffy Bunny or some such.
That was an awesome episode. Nothing will ever beat Blossom stuck in traffic, Bubbles bouncing down the sidewalk on her pogo stick, and Buttercup waiting darkly on the couch for the sun to go down. Classic.
Posted by ActorLad on :
Buttercup was Mange(inspired by a Spawn-takeoff comic called Spore), Bubbles was Harmony Bunny (inspired from a manga she was reading that I can't recall the title of) and Blossom was Liberty Belle (inspired by the WW-ish comic Freedom Gal).
Since KP got the closet answers it's his turn.

Posted by Bevis on :
Oh I'd forgotten that Bubbles was actually on a pogo stick and that buttercup wouldn't go out till dark. Genius episode. Truly genius.
Posted by Kid Prime on :
Yes it was. Well, let's keep the Powerpuffs in it for another question (this one is a two-parter.) In the first battle with Mr. Mime, how did Bubbles first attempt to defeat his rampage through Townsville, and once that first attempt failed, how did she ultimately succeed?
Posted by Bevis on :
He's the black and white clown isn't he? I'm not certain about what bubbles tries first, but I think she tried to colour everything in with her crayons but they went grey too. I might be confusing that with the episode where her drawings come to life though. However, I know they defeat him by forming a band and singing. It's all very yellow Submarine. And then the clown gets good because he's got his colour back but they still beat him up and put him in prison.
Posted by Kid Prime on :
That's it!
"My crayons are beautiful... just not magic," Bubbles says mournfully.
I love Bubbles.
You're up!
Posted by Bevis on :
Bubbles is my favourite as well. Normally I hate cute or twee but Bubbles is just that little bit twisted as well which makes it all good.
Since we're on a PPG roll here, in the episode where an evil cat takes over Townsville who plays the voice of the cat?
Posted by Bevis on :
not even one guess? I'll give a clue either just before going to bed tonight or first thing tomorrow morning since the clue is likely to give it away straight away.
Posted by Lance's realm on :
Frank Welker? (He voices everything else..)

Nope to both of those. Hint time though, the person that does the cat's voice also does the voice for another major cartoon villain on a different series.

James Earl Jones? (I wish I watched Powerpuff Girls....)
Posted by Kid Prime on :
Mark Hamill!

Mark Hamill it was. I didn't realise it until I was looking at a PPG site the other day, but apparently tis true. I have to admit that is one of my favourite eipsides.

Probably because it just occurs to me that Scruffy is the janitor, I think...
Posted by Kid Prime on :
Nope, you're right, Scruffy's the janitor.
Incidentally, I love that same little bit of animation they reuse over and over again when Bender and Fry walk up to him and demand to know why he's not working. It's just like watching an old He-Man episode! Posted by ActorLad on :
Seymour, he's walking on sunshine now. :cry: That ep always makes me tear up.
Posted by Kid Prime on :
Me too! When Fry says "He forgot about me years ago," and then the musical montage while Seymour sits, patiently waiting for Fry at the pizza parlor year after year, until finally he puts his little doggy head down and breathes his last breath...
Heck, I'm tearing up now!

I would say in this game where the answer is not limited by multiple choice, it is OK to keep guessing after each confirmed wrong answer.

Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
Not Superboy or Hawkman (who did appear in the later expanded roster)
Hint: this hero was needed to get a mouse out of a computer.
Posted by Matthew E on :
Well, my only remaining guess anyway was going to be 'Green Arrow and the Atom', so I guess I'll go with that.
And how'd the mouse get into the computer in the first place? Was it installed wrong? Seems like an odd mistake to make...
Posted by KryptonKid on :
Greean Arrow and Plastic Man.
Wanted to say Atom, but who knows. All my guesses can't be wrong. On the other hand, I don't have a question prepared, so I hope Matthew gets it!
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
Start thinking of a question KryptonKid, because Green Arrow & Plastic Man are the right answers.
And Matthew, this was one of those giant room size computers from the 70s. Platic Man was needed to reach into the computer and through a bunch of twists and turns to get the mouse. The computer was controling everything so it couldn't be dismantled. The mouse was crossing wires and such.
The Green Arrow episode was good too. The Superfriends were shrunk and captured. Wendy & Marvin contact Green Arrow. And although GA get's shrunk too, he manages to free the other Superfriends.
The one other guest hero during the Marvin & Wendy era was the Flash.

Posted by Chaim Mattis Keller on :
Mike Doonesbury either has two brothers, or one brother who's been referred to by two different names over the course of the strip's history. What are those brotherly names?
Posted by Matthew E on :
I'm pretty sure it's just one brother, originally named Benjy, who later got way big into punk and started calling himself Sal (short for Saliva) Putrid. He's not so punk anymore, since he got a job as 'Dr. Whoopee', a spokesman for a condom company, but still calls himself Sal.
Posted by Chaim Mattis Keller on :
Those are the correct names. I was never sure if Garry Trudeau intentionally changed Benjy into Sal or if he simply let Benjy get "forgotten" as a relic of the early days of the strip when it was crudely drawn and more focused on student politics than general politics and pop culture.
Take it away, Matthew!

Neither of those.

The dog's name is Daisy, but... I think it's a he.
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
I know the name is Daisy. I believe Daisy is female because she had pups.
Posted by KryptonKid on :
The original Daisy was male, but has since had puppies. I don't know if they got a new dog, vacationed in Stockholm, or were affected by Infinite Crisis...but I intended for my question to be in the present tense (I hope that was clear). I believe the honor goes to Quislet, Esq.
(The pups were around for a couple of years, then disappeared sans explanation. I wasn't around in the 1920's, but was Blondie's maiden name de Vil?)
Posted by Chaim Mattis Keller on :
No, Blondie'e maiden name was Boop-a-Doop.
Daisy could have been the father of the pups. I can't imagine the actual birth or any nursing was shown on-panel; with dogs, all that matters is which parent's owner wants to keep them.
Posted by Chaim Mattis Keller on :
...and then I read this morning's Blondie, and Daisy is clearly referred to as "she".
Never mind.

OK, let's think. (I know! I know! That may be dangerous. But is it too dangerous for a girl?)
In the Warner Brothers cartoon, "Tick Tock Tuckered", Porky & Daffy have to get to sleep early in order to arrive at work on time and not get fired.

How many wacky racers were there in the cartoon Wacky Racers?
A bonus if you can name them all.
Posted by Bevis on :
There was Penelope Pitstop. The Anthill Mob Dastardly and Mutley The Caveman Brothers The ghoul ones that I have forgot the names of The drag racer guy in the red car
And I'm sure a couple of others. I think there were eight in total though. That certainly sounds right...
Posted by Rockhopper Lad on :
I think there were nine vehicles: The six Bevis named (I'm guessing the last one is Peter Perfect).
Plus The Arkansas Chug-a-bug The Army Surplus Special Professor Pat Pending
Posted by Bevis on :
Yup, Petere Perfect is the other one I was thinking of. The male equivalent of Penelope Pitstop really.
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
8 and 9 is not the correct answers
Posted by Seth Gaterra on :
Actually saw a couple of episodes recently, since Boomerang slipped them into a block dedicated to Dastardly & Muttley. But I had to go back and look up the details.
There were 11 cars total. The two that hadn't been mentioned yet were the Crimson Haybaler (the car/plane hybrid) and the Buzz Wagon (with sawblade wheels)
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
You are correct.
The official names of the cars are:
Number 1: The Bouldermobile, driven by The Slag Brothers (Rock Slag & Gravel Slag) - cavemen (covered with hair like Cousin Itt from The Addams Family; their design was recycled for Captain Caveman) driving a wheeled boulder. The Slag Brothers sometimes reconstructed their car from scratch just by using their clubs on any large boulder that was available. On one occassion the car was shown to be using an unseen, living creature as its engine.
Number 2: The Creepy Coupe, driven by The Gruesome Twosome (Big Gruesome & Little Gruesome) - monsters (Big spoke like Boris Karloff and Little like Peter Lorre), driving a car with a belfry; the belfry housed a dragon and various ghosts and ghouls. The Creepy Coupe was able to fly short distances through use of the dragon's wings.
Number 3: The Convert-a-Car, driven by Professor Pat Pending - a scientist in a car that can change into just about anything that moves.
Number 4: The Crimson Haybailer, driven by RED MAX - an air ace (loosely based on WWI German aviator, Max Immelmann) in a car/plane hybrid that was capable of limited flight, usually just enough to leapfrog over racers and/or obstacles in its path. The Haybailer also had a machine gun mounted, which was sporadically used.
Number 5: The Compact Pussycat, driven by Penelope Pitstop - a woman racer driving a pink feminine car with personal grooming facilities. Said facilities would sometimes backfire on the other racers---shampoo foam hitting the faces of the other racers, for instance.
Number 6: The Army Surplus Special, driven by Sergeant Blast & Private Meekly - two soldiers racing an army tank/jeep hybrid. The Army Surplus Special made use of its tank facilities while racing, including its cannon.
Number 7: The Bulletproof Bomb (aka The Roaring Twenty), driven by The Ant Hill Mob (led by Clyde) - gangsters in a 1920s salon car. Their car was renamed Chugga-Boom in the spinoff The Perils of Penelope Pitstop, where it also seemed to gain sentience.
Number 8: The Arkansas Chuggabug, driven by Luke & Blubber Bear - a hillbilly who sleeps most of the races and a worry-wart bear in a wooden buggy driven by a coal-fired range.
Number 9: The Turbo Terrific, driven by Peter Perfect - a jock (he had a crush on Penelope, so often stopped to help) driving a drag racer that often falls to bits.
Number 10: The Buzz Wagon, driven by Rufus Ruffcut & Sawtooth - a lumberjack and a beaver in a wagon with buzzsaws for wheels, which gave it the ability to cut through almost anything, damaging or destroying the object in the process.
Number 00: The Mean Machine, driven by Dick Dastardly & Muttley - the villains of the series, in a rocket-powered car with lots of concealed weapons. (thank you Wikipedia)
you can go here to see what they looked like Wacky Racers Posted by Seth Gaterra on :
Okay, tying it to the previous question... what three American cartoon series got inspiration from "Wacky Races"?
Posted by Bevis on :
Penelope Pitstop (I'm not sure if it had another name), Those Marvellous Men In Their Flying Machines (aka Stop The Pigeon, starring Dastardly and Mutley) and, I assume, Captain Caveman.
Posted by Seth Gaterra on :
Yes... and if I'd been thinking, I would have seen that Quislet quoted the Captain Caveman reference above!
But your question, Bevis.
Posted by Bevis on :
Yup, which is how I managed to get all three. I kind of assumed that Captain Caveman came first but Quis kind of gave it away for me. Not that I'm complaining of course.
I asked a Dangermouse question a little while ago, but let's have another one. Which character from Dangermouse had their own spin off series despite the fact that only their name and the very basic concept remained the same?

Posted by Matthew E on :
No guesses? Okay.
If anybody's forgetting who Johan was, he was the squire in a castle sorta near the Smurfs village. He and his sidekick Peewit would go around and have adventures, sometimes interacting with the Smurfs, sometimes not. Peewit had a donkey named Biquette.
Hint: Johan's horse had the same name as a legendary magical horse, and also a renowned French knight.

Not Percival.
This is not an Arthurian-type name we're looking for; the French knight I refer to was a real-life guy who lived rather later than what anybody might think of as an Arthurian period.
Hint: one of the reasons I remember the name is because of its alliteration with Peewit's donkey Biquette.

Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
Wonder Woman, She-Ra, & Princess Nida from the Arabian Knights.
Posted by Seth Gaterra on :
Wonder Woman and She-Ra were indeed two of the people I was thinking of. Looked up Princess Nida, and while she's skilled with disguises... she's otherwise a normal human, and isn't called by any other name.
I didn't think "superheroine" was too vague a category? I'd meant that the character has another name and/or costume while doing heroic deeds.
Posted by DrakeB3004 on :
Princess Ariel from "Thundarr"?
Posted by Seth Gaterra on :
quote:Originally posted by DrakeB3004: Princess Ariel from "Thundarr"?
Almost, but I specified dual identities. Like when Princess Diana of Themyscira puts on her costume, she's better known as Wonder Woman.
Posted by Seth Gaterra on :
Since the computer's acting up and I may not be on again for a few days, I'm cutting short this question. Sorry, people...
Someone go ahead and post.
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
OK I would argue over Princess Nida. Having seen the cartoon, she didn't just don a wig or mask, her features and voice would magically transform, thus she had a super-power. The whole team act as superheroes even if they do not use costumes or code-names.
I would be interested to know your third.
OK, I am taking the question based on Seth saying someone should and having gotten two of the three officially correct.
QUESTION:
Who "when he gets in a scrape, he makes his escape with the help of his friend, an ape named Ape"?

Okay, I hadn't seen that series in recent times (though I know it's been on Boomerang). The info I found on the Net about Nila is that she was a master of disguise, not that she was Mystique.
Let's see... I was thinking Gravity Girl, of the Galaxy Trio; unfortunately, while she was revealed as the princess of her world, her actual name was never given. So I may not have been able to count her, under my own rules.
Usagi Tsukino (Sailor Moon) was the reincarnation of Princess Serenity, and could mystically transform into that form to fight foes too strong for Sailor Moon's powers. Chibiusa (Rini in the English translation) is likewise a princess in her native 30th century.

That's the guy. Your question.

In "Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!", what was the initial reason for Velma losing her glasses at inopportune moments?
Posted by walkwithcrowds on :
Scooby or Shaggy would bump into her while fleeing in panic?
Posted by Seth Gaterra on :
Sorry, let me rephrase the question:
Why did the writers/animators decide to have Velma lose her glasses at inopportune moments? Not what event would make her lose the glasses; that was my fault. I was trying not to be too obvious in the initial question.
Posted by ActorLad on :
Because otherwise she'd always find all the clues?
Posted by DrakeB3004 on :
Hm... because so she could accidentally find some clue while stumbling around looking for her glasses?
Posted by Seth Gaterra on :
No, and no... keep trying?
Posted by Lance's realm on :
So the artisits could draw her bending over?
Posted by Eryk Davis Ester on :
To keep her busy while Scooby and Shaggy encountered/ran from the monster?
Posted by Seth Gaterra on :
Still not right yet...
Posted by DrakeB3004 on :
So she could walk up to a "monster" and mistake him for one of the gang?
Posted by KryptonKid on :
quote:Originally posted by Lance's realm: So the artisits could draw her bending over?
Bwwwaaaaah!!!!
I love this place!
Posted by Seth Gaterra on :
Still not right.
Hint: it was something that happened while they were still creating the first episode that decided this.
Posted by DrakeB3004 on :
One of their first sponsors was for contact lenses so they wanted to show why it's inconvenient to still wear glasses?
Posted by Bevis on :
Is it something as simple as they animated a scene and forgot that she should be wearing glasses so had to come up with an explanation for where they'd gone? Basically, a continuity fubar.
Posted by Seth Gaterra on :
Still not right...
Posted by Calybos on :
Because she was too smart to get herself into trouble otherwise?
Posted by Seth Gaterra on :
Still not right...
And the only other clue I can think of that doesn't directly state the answer is this: it's based on something RL.
Posted by Bevis on :
The actress who played Velma (or, you know, her voice) kept losing her glasses and it was an in-joke?
Posted by Seth Gaterra on :
That's it, Bevis! Nicole Jaffe, the first voice for Velma, lost her glasses during a table read. And the writers decided to use that as a running gag for the series.
Posted by Bevis on :
Yay me! Right, new question.
In 'Fairly Odd Parents' why does Timmy Turner have a pink hat? I'll accept either the 'in show' answer and the answer relating to when the show wasa first being made.
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
No guesses after 5 days and Bevis is off on his honeymoon for the next week. I'm going to post a new question.
Who will "drink his super sauce And throw the bad guys for a loss And he will bring them in alive and kickin'"?

The Thunderbolt Grease Slapper
Posted by Calybos on :

hmmmmmmm...........
From the cartoon DuckTales, what was the name of the little girl duck and who was she related to?
Posted by ActorLad on :
Mrs. Beakley was Webbigail "Webby"'s "Grammy". Mrs. Beakly was the housekeeper and nanny to the nephews.
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
That is correct.
Posted by ActorLad on :
Who did Mumm-Ra serve?
Posted by Calybos on :
The "ancient spirits of evil" were all that I recall him invoking.
Posted by ActorLad on :
Which is the right answer.
Posted by Calybos on :
Okay. Also from Thundercats: Name the three new Thunderians who joined the team in Season Two.
Posted by DrakeB3004 on :
Ha! I swear I've answered this two other times on this thread ... I believe they were: -Pumyra -Lynxo -Bengali

Sorry, I didn't check back that far. (I knew I should've asked about Jem and the Holograms....)
Correct, obviously. Your turn.

Peter Griffin had an ancestor who was in silent films - what was his gimmick?

Calybos has it! (sorry for the delay)

Also from Family Guy: What type of 'reparations' did Cleveland receive and share with his black brothers?
Posted by walkwithcrowds on :
It was some kind of cake.
I think it was rice crispie squares.
Posted by Calybos on :
Correct, it was Rice Krispie squares.
Your turn, WWCrowds.
Posted by walkwithcrowds on :
Okay, I'll stay with Family Guy for this question.
In the episode when the family were put in witness protection and hid "down South" (cue lot's of redneck, bad teeth and in-breeding jokes), what was the name of the smartest pupil in class before Meg joined?
Posted by walkwithcrowds on :
No takers Huh?
Okay, I'll give it to the first one who can describe the pupil in question.
Posted by ActorLad on :
It was a pig named Oinky if I recall correctly.
Posted by walkwithcrowds on :
You do indeed recall correctly AL. It's your go mate.
Posted by ActorLad on :
What's the name of the Dark Chi Wizard on Jackie Chan Adventures?
Posted by ActorLad on :

Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
What was the name of the turtle who raced Bugs Bunny in three cartoons?
Posted by walkwithcrowds on :
Flash?
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
Nope. And the name was not an alliteration of turtle.
Posted by walkwithcrowds on :
Chester? (Okay now I really AM just guessing here)
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
Close, but not correct. I'll give another day, then give another question if no one gets this.
Posted by walkwithcrowds on :
Close to Chester?
Woooo! I am one good guesser!
Uuuuuhm...Chesney?
Posted by ActorLad on :
Nester?
Posted by Kent Shakespeare on :
Lester?
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
Nope, nope, nope. By close I meant that it started with a "C". It was Cecil Turtle. In all three cartoons in which he appeared, he always got the best of Bugs. No mean feat that.
Ok another question:
Name at least one member of Top Cat's gang. (Not counting Top Cat himself)
Posted by walkwithcrowds on :
spook?
Does Benny the Ball count - as he was more a right hand man/stooge than a gang member?
Posted by Calybos on :
Choo-Choo.
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
walkwithcrowds is correct with Spook and Benny the Ball. Calybos is also coreect witrh Choo-Choo, but WWC was first.
The other members are: Fancy-Fancy & the Brain
Posted by walkwithcrowds on :
In Futurama what was the name of Amys pet buggalo?
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
Oh oh drat..
um... Buttercup?
Posted by walkwithcrowds on :
You are kind of on the right lines. It is a Hillbilly Western type of name.
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
I looked it up after guessing, so I'll give others a shot at it.
Posted by ActorLad on :
It was Betsy.
Posted by walkwithcrowds on :
That was the name AL.
It's your go mate.
Posted by ActorLad on :
Name Skeletor's signature weapon.
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
Didn't he has the twin sword to He-Man's? I seem to recall him using a staff that blasted laser beams.
I don't know of any particular name for either.
Posted by ActorLad on :
I'm not refering to the sword since that isn't the way in all versions. The staff is what I was refering to.
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
OK, I assume that means I get the next question. I think I should do an easy one, seeing as I won't be back til Tuesday.
During the 70s, teens solving mysteries were all the rage. Which one feature the ghost of an American Revolutionary era man and his cat?

Name the two recurring Enterprise crewmembers introduced in Star Trek: The Animated Series (hint: both were nonhuman).
Bonus Points if you know who voiced each of the new characters.
Posted by Seth Gaterra on :
Arex (he was tri-limbed in both arms and legs) and M'ress (she was a felinoid).
Posted by Bicycle Repair Man on :
Lt. Arex, alternate Helmsman (or was it Navigator?), IIRC gender never established, definitely 3 arms (I'm not sure we ever saw Arex except seated, could have had 3 legs), voiced by James Doohan.

A famous Disney character is colorblind; who is it, and when was this revealed?
Posted by walkwithcrowds on :
Pluto?
I don't know when it was revealed I'm just going with the fact that dogs are colourblind.
Posted by Seth Gaterra on :
First hint: the character in question isn't a dog. Sorry. Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
I am thinking Uncle Scrooge. Not sure of exactly when or in what circumstance.
Posted by Seth Gaterra on :
No, but you're closer.
Posted by Lance's realm on :
Donald Duck? I have no idea where this can be validated though...
Posted by Seth Gaterra on :
Well, it is indeed Donald Duck. I'd originally added the requirement of where this was related, since I figured someone would name Donald pretty quickly.

Yes, they do. But no, that's not the reason...

Would it be because he tried to join the air force as a pilot?
Posted by Seth Gaterra on :
You almost have it!
Posted by Seth Gaterra on :
Since the thread died, I'll just give this one to Quislet, Esq.
Yes, the colorblindness was discovered by the military... but this was in the cartoon "Donald Gets Drafted" (released May 1st, 1942). Since he was drafted into the Army, rather than setting out to join the Air Force, your answer wasn't completely correct. Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
What was the source of Underdog's power?
Bonus: do you think they will keep it in the up-coming live action movie version?

Looking for the specific name it was given.
If no one else gets it by tomorrow, then the question is yours.

The question is Chaim's
It was his "Underdog Super Energy Vitamin Pill" which he kept in a secret comparment on his ring.

There are actually two acceptable answers. We'll take both or either.

No, but if there had been a character named Oliver on the show that might have worked.

It's "Organization for Generally Rotten Enterprises", though it was given as "Endeavours" in at least one episode.

Another hint, which may ring a bell for anyone who saw the show... this guy's superpowers were triggered by temperature.
Posted by Matthew E on :
Another hint, which should put this over the top for anyone who saw the show... the guy's superpower was that he could turn into a red sports car. (Which, I'm sure you'll agree, is an intriguing mixture of useful and inconvenient.)

Bigger hint: It is very large, it floats, and you can land planes on it.
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
An aircraft carrier
Posted by Lance's realm on :
Thanks for getting me off the hook, Quis. Yeah, Presto yanked an aircraft carrier out of his pointed green hat. Shame it was on land, though. Anyway, your question.

Semi-easy. Name one of the members of Top Cat's gang. Top Cat is not an acceptible answer though.
Posted by Stealth on :
Choo-Choo.
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
Correct along with Benny the Ball, Fancy-fancy, Spook, and Brain.
Your question, Stealth
Posted by Stealth on :
Mel Blanc was famous for originating many memorable voices for Warner Brothers during the Golden Age of Animation. But there was one Golden Age of Animation character from a rival studio that Blanc originated the voice of, only for Blanc to have to abandon the character after Warner Brothers signed him to an exclusive contract.
Who is this character?

Woody Woodpecker it is. Congratulations, Drake.

Ok, 80's cartoon trivia time: Which character from "Bionic Six" shared a name with one of the Transformers?
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
Hmmm this is a question for Kid Prime.
I'll guess Bumblebee
Posted by DrakeB3004 on :
nope
Posted by DrakeB3004 on :
The Transformer in question was one of the later additions to the G1 series, the Bionic 6 character wasn't a villain or one of the 6, but was bionic
Posted by Stealth on :
Perceptor.
(I had to look it up on Wikipedia, because I never saw Bionic Six -- I'd never even heard of it until now)
Another Transformers-related question, which should be a lot easier:
What living legend among voice actors played more than twenty roles in the G1 Transformers cartoon?
Posted by Stealth on :
A hint:
He's also been the voice of Fred in almost every incarnation of Scooby-Doo including the current one; the only one where he wasn't Fred was A Pup Named Scooby-Doo.
Posted by Stealth on :
My god, nobody got the Fred hint??
Okay, it's Frank Welker.

Posted by Fanfic Lady on :
...and almost four years later...
This one should be easy. What actor from "Mr. Ed" did the voice of Uncle Scrooge on "DuckTales"?
Posted by Shining Son on :
Well I can't name ANY actor from Mr. Ed other than Alan Young, and I doubt many people can, so I might as well be the first to guess that it's him.
Posted by Fanfic Lady on :
Alan Young (who, if he's still alive, is at least as old as Uncle Scrooge) it is.
What's your cartoon trivia question, Shining Son?
Posted by Shining Son on :
Name a Saturday Morning cartoon series that started on Earth and inexplicably became space-based for its final season.

Josie and the Pussycats

So sorry I missed this thread back then...I had it at the initial question.
Posted by Dev - Em on :
quote:Originally posted by Shining Son: Name a Saturday Morning cartoon series that started on Earth and inexplicably became space-based for its final season.
Gilligans Island.
Posted by Shining Son on :
Josie and the Pussycats is a correct answer.
I had Gilligan's Island in mind as the second when I originally wrote the question as "Name TWO cartoon series that..." but I double checked and IMDB didn't have an animated Gilligan's Island listed, only Gilligan's Planet.
But now that Dev has guessed it too, I googled "animated Gilligan's Island" and "New Adventures of Gilligan" came up, so I guess by not having "Island" in the title it evaded my first search.
