Where does the Rob Paulsen info come from? -- MisterJames (talk) 22:37, 24 September 2020 (UTC)

Looks like you took that from Wally Gator page on Wikipedia. I'd have researched that myself. -- MisterJames (talk) 22:44, 24 September 2020 (UTC)
Yeah, that's where I found the information at. I'm not exactly sure where the "Rob Paulsen" info comes from. I guess I'll have to do some research on that. -- Snoopy The Dog (talk) 22:56, 24 September 2020 (UTC)
After some research on the user who added the voice actor part, they seem to have been warned about not adding reliable sources. Meaning that the voice actor part was false and the actual voice actor wasn't confirmed yet. -- Snoopy The Dog (talk) 23:08, 24 September 2020 (UTC)

1962

Maybe he did first premiere in 1962, look at the dates here. BTW I feel like WB are such cheapskates for having the DVD episode quality kinda low while on here it's in excellent quality. -- Snoopy The Dog (talk) 03:37, 5 June 2021 (UTC)

Personally I don't see any indication in believing Apple TV for dates. -- MisterJames (talk) 04:12, 5 June 2021 (UTC)
The air dates were right on Wikipedia (and they were pretty much the same on Apple TV), it's just the years that were wrong, Wally debuted in 1963 according to his official card description. So he made his first official debut on September 3, 1963. Should we believe Yowp or that calendar (that has Joseph Barbera as a writer), I would go back with what Yowp was saying on Hokey because that calendar could be referring to when Hokey's and Ding's model sheets were drawn. -- Snoopy The Dog (talk) 06:36, 5 June 2021 (UTC)
According to Yowp, the premiere dates of Wally and co. were either August 27 (as a preview) or September 3, 1962. Due to all that research, that is likely more factually correct than his official card, unfortunately. -- https://yowpyowp.blogspot.com/2014/07/a-lion-swingin-gator-and-rabbit-that.html
It's odd though because it also said "1963" on that calendar Joe was a writer in (the one that featured the shows premier dates), maybe that was also an error. Most sources say September 3, 1962 though I hope it isn't just because they are copied from Wikipedia. The calendar and card said September 3, so I would be in favor of saying it was on September 3, 1962. -- Snoopy The Dog (talk) 08:18, 5 June 2021 (UTC)
I'll take Yowp's word on Wally and Hokey, I don't really trust what that calendar was saying nor that Wally card. Yowp puts a fair amount of research into what he talks about. It's unfortunate that neither Yowp or John K actually thinks Wally was any good. -- Snoopy The Dog (talk) 22:46, 5 June 2021 (UTC)
Unfortunately I won't even fully trust what Joe and Bill say themselves because in the Hanna-Barbera: Personal Favorites VHS, they said Huckleberry Hound was the first TV series they ever made (letting alone the existence of Ruff and Reddy), maybe it's best to ignore what the calendars or cards made in the 90s say, since they usually seem to have misinformation, I can't seem to find any news articles on Hokey (we unfortunately are in a tie with the airdates there), but the Wally airdates seem correct. -- Snoopy The Dog (talk) 00:39, 4 July 2021 (UTC)

Animals

I'm still trying to figure out why the people within the HB universe act like the animals, that are dangerous in real life, are dangerous within the universe, if they've seen the animals elsewhere in person, wouldn't they act like people too? I guess we're never going to find out this one. -- Snoopy The Dog (talk) 18:27, 17 June 2021 (UTC)
