This year's Daws Butler week has come to an end, and to cap it off, I've got a short but sweet TV appearance from Butler, as well as two other classic voice actors. This is Daws' appearance in the short-lived 1980s TV series That's My Line. He's joined by Clarence Nash, the original Donald Duck, and Jack Mercer, the second and most well-known Popeye voice actor. We hear both of them do those voices, while Daws does a short performance as Yogi Bear.
What's interesting about this clip is that it actually ended a segment featuring two other names I'm sure you'll recognize. They are none other than Mel Blanc and his son Noel Blanc. If you'd like to see that section of the episode, check it out right here. That concludes Daws Butler week, but fret not. Daws played such a big part in Hanna-Barbera's history that you won't have to wait until next November to hear more about him. It'll only be a matter of time before we're talking about him yet again!
