If you're a parent like me that ends up turning on Disney Junior for an occasional episode of Mickey Mouse Clubhouse or Special Agent Oso, you may have been wandering why those characters sound familiar.. well, just like decoding the Pixar Easter Eggs, I wanted to decode a few of these!
For Starters:
Special Agent Oso:
Now, in other thoughts - I'm not looking forward to the new short "Small Potatoes" I say can that and bring back Ooh and Aah!
For Starters:

How was it?
ReplyDeleteIts still him! He was just at d23 promoting the show!
ReplyDeleteI had no idea Sean Astin was the voice of Oso. I'm going to have to watch an episode just because I am a LOTR nerd :)
ReplyDeleteHa! I did know that about FES!! But the newer episodes of Handy Manny sound different...I was wondering if Wilmer didn't do the voice anymore.
ReplyDeleteI did know Fes was Foreign Exchange Student, but I had an unfair advantage - I was one! =) Of course I never heard this until this show was on & our FES told me that is what it was! ; )
ReplyDeleteI am going to check out small potatoes today...we shall see. :0)
ReplyDeleteI had no idea all these folks were on these shows. Makes me appreciate them just a bit more. Also, who knew Fes' real name was not Fes!
