Bart is a hell raiser and he is voiced by a woman. Many boy cartoon characters are/were voiced by women. Bart Simpson is voiced by Nancy Cartwright.

Timmy Turner in 'Fairly Oddparents' is voiced by Tara Lynn Charendoff. Debi Derryberry voices Jimmy Neutron in 'Jimmy Neutron Boy Genius'.

Chistine Cavanaugh voiced a few boy characters. She voiced Dexter of 'Dexter's Laboratory', Chucky Finster of 'the Rugrats', and Marty Sherman of 'the Critic'. MS. Cavanaugh stopped voicing cartoon characters in 2001. She quit because of personal reasons that I know nothing about.

Nancy Cartwright auditioned for the part of Lisa but was given the role of Bart. I give Bart Simpson a 4 star rating.

I always found it amusing that the writers named this character after a demon in Judaic mythology.


And I've got to say that I'd rather take psychological advice from this psychiatrist from any of the other hacks that gull the foolish on television. She's more credible that Dr. Phil, or Laura Schlessinger.

Memorable, if at all, for one primary reason. The "actor" playing Mr. Ed wasn't a horse, but a trained Grevy's zebra called "Amelia." The series had been pitched to and purchased by CBS but when shooting started it was found that the horse cast in the title role would not perform on cue, or in many cases, at all. The solution was to borrow Amelia from the Jungleland Animal park.

The deception worked because of the technology of black and white TV. There is considerable difficulty in resolving closely integrated black and white images on non-color receivers (one of the reasons that NFL games were not regularly televised until the mid-60's when color televisions started to outsell black and white models.) Under those conditions, the zebra's stripes blend into a uniform tone on the receiver, and Amelia was transformed into Mr. Ed.

This was widely known throughout the industry of course, and the shows writers inserted inside jokes about it on numerous occasions, in one case going so far as to have Mr. Ed mistaken for a zebra after leaning against a newly painted fence. (For that episode, the zebra scenes had to be shot in color, then converted back to black and white so the TV audience could get the joke.)

Other than this interesting manipulation of technology, the show was unmemorable and culturally worthless.

Mister ED was a TV show about a horse that could talk. ED was voiced by Allan Lane. They got Mister ED to open and close his mouth by giving him peanut butter.

In the show Mister ED was owned by a man named Wilbur Post(Alan Young). The show began in 1961 and ended in 1966. Sadly, the horse that portrayed Mister Ed died four years later in 1970. He died one year before I was born.

Mister ED would only talk to his owner. He talked to other people also but only on the telephone. Whoever trained Mister ED, was damn good at his job. ED was actually trained to put a pencil in his mouth and dial the phone.

Alan Young also starred in the Time machine and in Beverly Hills Cop III' He starred as Uncle Dave in BHC III. Mister ED was a great show and that horse was great also. I give Mister ED a 5 star rating.

I used to watch this show all the time. Maybe it just brings back memories but I used to think detective Columbo was sooo cool :) He always had a different way of catching the killer and setting them up. Maybe if I watch him now he won't be so cool anymore, but from what I remember he was the man!

On one episode Claire Huxtable said that it was wrong of her Son-in-law 'Elvin' to have dinner with two women. But on a later episode, Claire had dinner with a man. That makes her a hypocrite.
