For his animated incarnation, see Weird Al Yankovic (character).

Template:Infobox actor Alfred Matthew "Weird Al" Yankovic is an American singer, musician, record producer, and actor. Yankovic has voiced fictionalized versions of himself several times throughout the decades.

Yankovic also hosted ABC's The ABC Saturday Morning Preview Park from Knotts Berry Farm in 1984, and was interviewed on the Space Ghost Coast to Coast episode "Banjo" in 1994. This interview was later referenced in "Story Book House" and "$20.01," and recreated in "Woody Allen's Fall Project," played by C. Martin Croker.

In the "Talent Show" episode of The Weird Al Show, Weird Al mentioned that he was originally in the pilot episode of The Flintstones, playing Fred Flintstone's cousin, but was cut after failing to say his line correctly.
