  • June Foray has Died.

    They said that she didn't leave any survivors, but she left all of us.

    And if you're to young to remember Rocky and Bullwinkle, maybe you remember Blocky and Oxwinkle?

    What did this person (whom I'd never heard of) have to do with Highlander?

      Well, I see this is the "General Discussion Forum," so there isn't any need for a connection with Highlander. But..."all of us" being expected to recognize her name?

        Her voice was a big factor in a lot of people's childhoods. If you watched cartoons of any kind, you probably know her work and just don't know you know it. If you've heard of Mel Blanc, you might ask yourself why you haven't heard of June Foray; I think it was Chuck Jones who said, that June Foray wasn't the female Mel Blanc, Mel Blanc was the male June Foray.
        Of course, if you don't know who Mel Blanc was...

          I loved watching Boris & Natasha.

            She was so gifted. The show wouldn't have been remotely the same without her.

            The show was a favorite with this child of the cold war-era. Rewatched some of the episodes a while back and 50 years later they still hold up remarkably well.

              Oh, Saber, that was perfect... almost! They left out Talking Tina!
