Casey Kasem

He also wants to know what happened to the pictures he was supposed to see this week!

Casey Kasem (born Kemal Amin Kasem on April 27, 1932) is an American voice actor. Among other roles, he has been known as Shaggy from Scooby Doo, Robin from Superfriends and Alexander from Josie and the Pussycats. He also had some kind of radio show or something. Chances are you've heard of it.

He really hates it when people dedicate songs to their dead pets. He also hates offensive stereotypes.

Roles

Generation 1 cartoon

• Bluestreak
• Cliffjumper
• Dr. Arkeville
• Robot slave ("Chaos")
• Teletraan I

Notes

• Mr. Kasem left the original Transformers cartoon during production of the third season episode "Thief in the Night" because of its depiction of the highly stereotypical Abdul Fakkadi as dictator of made-up Arab state Carbombya. Kasem's family is Lebanese Druze, which is not quite Arab, but zoinks.

• In deference to Mr. Kasem, Dr. Arkeville should be assumed to be a vegetarian. I don't think we have to worry about the Autobots.
