Who lives in the Nemesis up on the moon? "StarBob SquareScream!"

Thomas James Kenny (born July 13, 1962) is an American voice actor, actor and stand-up comedian. From the stand-up side, he is known for his Comedy Central special as well as his prominent role on Mr. Show.

On the voice-acting side, he is best recognized as the eponymous character from Spongebob Squarepants, The Penguin from The Batman, The Amazing Mumbo from Teen Titans, Gibson from Super Robot Monkey Team Hyper Force Go, Jake from My Gym Partner is a Monkey, Raimundo from Xiaolin Showdown, Heifer Wolfe from Rocko's Modern Life, the mayor and narrator from the Powerpuff Girls, Yancy Fry Jr. from Futurama, Plastic-Man from Batman; The Brave and the Bold, Iron Man & Captain America from The Super Hero Squad, and... jeez, just about everything that's been on Cartoon Network and Nick in the past 10 years.

As an on-camera actor, he has played Patchy The Pirate on segments of Spongebob Squarepants, and very early on in his career, he played the villainous Binky The Clown (not to be confused with the Garfield character of the same name) in Bobcat Goldthwait's cult comedy Shakes The Clown.

Notes

  • "SpongeBob" is in Microsoft Office's spell-check lexicon, yet "Starscream" is not. Discuss.
  • Bill Fagerbakke, who voices Spongebob's best friend Patrick Star in Spongebob Squarepants (as well as being Kenny's real-life best friend), also voices Bulkhead in the Transformers Animated continuity. Small, hilarious-sounding world.
  • Bobcat Goldthwait is his childhood friend since the first grade.
  • He shares the same birthday as actor Harrison Ford.
