Rob Paulsen is my favorite voice actor of all time

[@mauricesmithjr4050]

Rob paulsen is my hero and if had 5 boys in the future i will name the youngest ones after him

[@MorePower8679]

Having the actual voice actors is a really nice touch. Also, this was Ernest Borgnine’s first cartoon? Cool.

[@PIXPromosMore]

No, he did an appearance on The Simpsons (the one where Bart joins the Boy Scouts). That was a few years before Pinky debut

[@XJIcequeen]

I had no idea Ernest Borgnine played Brain’s father! I’m so used to him as Mermaid Man, I assumed that was his only VA role

AND it even won them an Oscar!

I’m so glad that Maurice and Rob are doing well, especially after Rob had to deal with throat cancer.💗 Maurice LaMarche and Rob Paulsen voices are so iconic and nostalgic! Glad you got them for the video.😊💜

The fact that The voice actor of "The Brain" has "The GodPigeon" shirt is already awesome... I miss "The GoodFeathers man.

He is honest and very hard working, and only wants what’s best for the world. But he gets no reward, he is only greeted with defeat. He never gives up, but I know it must be very hard. So please, take anything that you have for me and give it to my best friend in the whole world, the Brain. Love Pinky. P.S. By any chance, do you have in that big old bag of yours… the world?”😭❤️🎄🎅🐁 🧠🐁Brain: “I order you too… have a Merry Christmas everyone!😭 Have a Merry Christmas!

My favorite was when Brain dared Pinky to take over the world and he almost did until Brain spoiled it.

[@omarcogle1965]

And the irony is that Pinky has no problem taking over the world with ease, but Brain always winds being the one having the problem taking over the world.

It's been awhile since I've seen Pinky and the Brain but to actually have the voice actors participate in this? Now that's a dream come true

[@fslayer1290]

Rob is such a sweetheart. I was able to meet him at a Philadelphia convention and it was a childhood dream come true. Also, he hello nurse’d me and I just about fell out.

[@Trekkie_Gal]

I was working at the table next to his at a con in Chicago last month. He spoke to me in both Yakko and Pinky's voices, and seemed really touched that I wore an Animaniacs hair clip that I've had since the 90s.

[@dakentaijutsu2010]

@@Trekkie_Gal I met him 2 months ago at fanboy expo Orlando, and I asked him could he count the many times brain had bopped him, and he said in his Pinky voice he guessed about 111 times that Brain had bopped him over the years, he's such a sweet guy to interact with, and the funniest!

I love it, especially the voice actors involved with it. Me as Pinky: "I think so Brain but, if they call it French roast, why aren't the coffee beans made in France?"

[@mirandagoldstine8548]

Pinky has a good point and luckily I have the answer. French roast refers to a regional style of roast first popularized in France during the 19th century.

[@roseprevost8081]

For once, I fully agree with number one. Also, Billy West also worked with Mo on Extreme Ghostbusters (Mo was Egon, BW was Slimer).

[@user-si9fx4xb6v]

Really hope that Extreme Ghostbusters finally gets a proper DVD/ Blu Ray release soon. The Real Ghostbusters got one in 2008 and again in 2016, plus it got a Blu Ray release in SD in Germany. Yet Extreme Ghostbusters only has a DVD release overseas of the first 13 episodes out of the 40 aired. Dr. Egon Spengler is still one of the roles that I associate Maurice Lamarche with to this day.

There's a theory: Pinky is actually the smart one. Brain is psycho. Ever wonder why their plans always fail and Pinky always seems to have the answer but Brain is too cocky and stupid to admit it. 🤷🏾‍♂️

Joe (1980), Lrr Futurama, Salem Saberhagen Sabrina's Secret Life, the Brain Pinky and the Brain, Serpentor G.I. Joe, and Dr Doom Avengers Assemble.
