Boy, aside from Billy West getting really close, it's wild how no one was able to quite match the iconic voice.
Jeff Bergman also does a good job voicing Elmer especially in Wabbit and Looney Tunes Cartoons.
@@EChacon Yeah I would put Bergman at a solid #2 and West at #3.
In "What's Opera, Doc?" Elmer is voiced by Arthur Q Bryan except for when Elmer shouts "SMOOOOOG!". Appearently Bryan broke his voice when trying to yell SMOG so Blank stepped in to do the line.
Arthur shouting SMOG can be heard on the symphony version of "What's Opera, Dpc?"
Really interesting that so many master voice artists struggled to imitate Arthur Q. Bryan. There must have been something very hard to pin down in his performance. I think Billy West came the closest.
I'm assuming it's the accent, It's hard to tell what accent Elmer has.
Funny, I thought Eric Bauza's Elmer was inspired by Mel Blanc's Elmer.
In egghead rides again wee see egghead yelling like Daffy duck
I figured it was just the one time with Space Jam that Billy West was Elmer, but holy cow, he just nailed it down perfectly.
I grew up with hearing Billy West doing Elmer Fudd's voice and he's one of my favorites for him but I also love Jeff Bergman's take and Eric Bauza's take on Elmer's voice too.
Can we appreciate how spot on Billy West does Elmer Fudd, it literally sounds exactly like Arthur Q. Bryan’s
Yes!
The best Elmer IMO.
It's hit and miss. Sometimes it doesn't sound right, other times it's perfect.
@@thewanderinginquirywriter641 when it hits, it really hits
I think that Billy West is the new Arthur Q Bryan
After Arthur Q. Bryan, I'd say the best voices for Elmer are Jeff Bergman, Billy West, and Eric Bauza.
My favorite post Arthur Q Bryan Elmers
Jeff Bergman
Billy West
Eric Bauza
Greg Burson
The first image of Jeff Bergman looks alot like Josh Peck 😳. If you told me that he was Josh Pecks dad I'd believe it.
@@bryanferratt6598 no Jeff ain’t Josh Peck’s dad 😂😂 I think that picture was taken immediately after Jeff was hired to voice the characters so probably around 89 or early 90s I’d say
@@brockpifer9929 I know he isn't, I'm just saying he looks exactly like him from that photo.
@@bryanferratt6598 yeah I got ya 😂
Billy West is probably the best replacement for Arthur Q. Bryan. Jeff Bergman sounded pretty close in Box Office Bunny, but in the others, he sounded quite off.
Billy West sounds the closest to Arthur Q. Bryan
Especially on 5:32
Funny that he had the closest Elmer but furthest Bugs
Your cartoon evolutoin is the best dave, keep going.
Thank You so much for making the voice evolution of Elmer Fudd You are amazing
i know that Billy west is most people’s favourite when it comes to Arthur Q. Bryan successors, and i agree, but i really can’t get over how close Jeff Bergman gets in “Box Office Bunny”
9:03 Elmer : *laughs*
Sylvester: S U F F
IK RIGHt
I like both Danny Webb, Mel Banc, and Arthur Q. Brian voices of Elmer Fudd.
Great video Dave! But Arthur did actually do Elmers voice in Wideo Wabbit and Whats Opera, doc? There is a special feature on Looney Tunes Golden Collection 2 where you can hear the recording session of Whats Opera, doc? and Arthur is in fact voicing Elmer.
But you're not too far off, as Mel did actually have to step in for Arthur to say the line "SMOG" in Whats Opera, doc?
Still a great video as usual! Keep up the good work :)
I totally wish they make a new series of Looney Tunes in their original iconic incarnations like in the game, Looney Tunes World of Mayhem. Because I love Elmer Fudd's iconic hunting outfit and Yosemite Sam's red shirt.
Much like how I grew up with Joe Alasky as Daffy, Billy West has always been Elmer to me.
*THANKS!!! :)*
*do Evolution of Granny (from Tweety and Sylvester) soon*
I always knew Elmers voice sounded way different from the Other looney tunes, simply put, despite always using a different voice, Mel blanc would still keep the same tone for most of them.
Nice Video
Billy west is the great actor of Elmer Fudd
Arthur Q Brain's voice IS Elmer, but Billy West has the best impression.
Jeff's Elmer was so much better in the 90s
I actually caught some of that Baby Looney Tunes episode. Really ticked me off because Elmer was a bully instead of someone quiet and well meaning until provoked. Really should've been Sam.
I think so too
Yet another reason I can't stand that show. Though Baby Taz is freaking cute. I'll give them that much.
I’ve watched the episode “a bully for bugs” yeah Elmer was never really nice to bugs
@@sholabolaji2975 Elmer's a very mild mannered character, and his only reason for hating Bugs was that he'd constantly humiliate him for trying to hunt him. It rarely starts off personal, but becomes vengeful. And in the rare cartoons without Bugs, he's a decent enough guy that gets pushed to the edge. Elmer pushing the rest of the LT cast around is wildly out of character, for a show that, for all its MANY faults at least gets the characters' personalities sort of right for the most part. I'd see Baby Elmer as an incredibly shy kid that has trouble making friends that Bugs would tease and have it backfire. Something that would start a rivalry between the two characters, but not to paint Elmer as a villain.
@@mightyfilm Oh sure, I suppose you have your own dumb reasons to judge me for enjoying Baby Looney Tunes even when I was a kid, I know the reason why because apparently I'm born in the 2000's and you "real" LT fans hate that year -_-
When are you people ever gonna cut me some slack..??
So are we all going to collectively ignore what Robin Williams did as Elmer Fudd?
Say what 😳? When was this?
@@bryanferratt6598 probably at one of his comedy shows or when he was at the 1996 Oscars to present the Lifetime Achievement Oscar to Chuck Jones
1.Arthur Q Bryan and Billy West (5:32 Arthur sounded like Billy's Elmer voice)
2. Eric Bauza
3. Jeff Bergman
4. Mel Blanc
5. Joe Alaskey and Greg Bunson
I know a lot of people don't talk about Mel Blanc's performance as Elmer Fudd that much, but I think he did a decent job at it. But to be completely honest, even though Blanc was a master of voice acting, I just don't think he's the best at imitating other people, at least as much as I know. He does a decent job at doing Arthur Q. Bryant's Elmer Fudd, i just don't think it's a 100% match. Now, don't get me wrong, imitating other people's voice is not easy, but the fact that Mel was able to somewhat do Arthur's Elmer Fudd is impressive enough.
Something, I wanna admit is sometimes Mel Blanc at times can't do voices right. I've also been watching alot of Looney Tunes Cartoons and I've been noticing that he tends to reused his voices on some other characters. We can't sit and pretend that Mr. Spacely voice is just Yosemite Sam without the Southern accent.
I'm trying to say that in Life Nobody isn't perfect and that's okay.
But I cant deny that he was really talented and inspire many Voice Actors. He's also one of the main reasons why Looney Tunes is amazing alongside with the talented people behind it. It's no wonder Looney Tunes became more popular and are really funny than Disney or... the Terrytoons.
Exactly! Mel may have been the best, but he wasn't perfect. And that is okay because nobody on this earth is perfect, and nobody ever was.
The Looney Tunes were definitely his most impressive works as a voice actor. Personally, I think Daffy Duck is his most impressive performance because he sounds the most different from the other looney tunes. Yes, I am aware that Daffy is a sped up iteration of Sylvester's voice, but he is still quite unique nonetheless. But then again, Elmer Fudd could be his most impressive, because Mel is actually trying his hardest to do Arthur Q. Bryant's Elmer voice.
@@profilepicture1847 Yeah, Especially since Arthur died in 1959. Most of the Voice Actors didn't had the same charm as him, I do appreciate that Mel tried to take over the role as Elmer for him.
I guess Warner Bros. really couldn't find Voice Actors that sounded exactly like Arthur until Jeff Bergman and Billy West came along.
Yeah, no one tops Arthur Q Bryan in this role. He is Elmer Fudd. That being said, Billy West, Jeff Bergman & Greg Burson came pretty close.
Arthur will to this day will be Elmer, but I love Billy West as Elmer.
tbh I know people already says this but shocked that no can do a perfect imitate of Arthur Q. Bryan. Billy West does a good job and gets the closet but I got to hand it to Jeff Bergman did really fucking good mainly in his early days. Also the guy who does Pre-Hysterical Hare is just god awful like jesus but that perfect cut with the gunshot was really funny also also kid Elmer from busting out all over look pretty cute
_"Oh Boy, my favowite voices of Ewmer Fudd hahahaha."_
Anyways, my favorite Voices for Elmer Fudd are:
1. Arthur Q. Bryan
2. Billy West
3. Jeff Bergmen
4. Eric Bauza
Those are my favorites too
8:55 Frank Welker in this clip was closest to Arthur Q. Bryan.
This sounds like Daffy 3:09
1.Billy West
2.Jeff Bergman
3.Greg Burson
4.Arthur Q Bryan
5.Mel Blanc
6.Frank Welker
7.Tom Kenny
8.Keith Scott
9.Mel Blanc
10.Hal Smith
11.Danny Webb
12.Dave Barry
13.Paul Kuhn
14.Eric Bauza
Eric Bauza at the bottom? He was one of the better voices.
Mel Blanc really had me fooled thinking he did all the male Looney Tunes character voices
Well Elmer and Porky were the only male Looney Tunes (since 1937) voices Mel didn't originally voice. Unless you count the time Mel voiced Egghead.
@@stephenholloway6893 well the Proto-Elmer (it’s not Egghead) was voiced by Blanc in most shorts prior to 1940 including Elmer’s first short “Little Red Walking Hood” from 1937
@@No-hd4cg Even so if you consider when the final version of Elmer can to be, Mel wasn't voicing him at the time expect on a few occasions afterwards until after he replaced Hal Smith. Also yes they're different characters but in a way Egghead did paved the way for Elmer a short time later.
@@stephenholloway6893 I know
I Love his voice of Elmer Fudd.
Yay nice (also 5th)
Jeff Burmon is like the modern Mel Blanc doing all the male voices. However, in this case Billy West is the best after the guy who did the main bulk of the classics Arthur Q Bryan.
Shouldn't been Billy West as bugs again for "The Looney tunes show", luckily, Joe Alaskey originally voiced the looney tunes for the pilot, but in the final show took by Jeff Bergman, instead west took on Elmer
Great
Cool
I like both Billy West and Jeff Bergman cause they make a great Elmer Fudd and Bugs Bunny
Hey Dave, can you make cartoon evolutions of Buzz Buzzard and Wally Walrus, Woody Woodpecker's adversaries?
No disrespect @ all but i love all your vids
One of my favorite Elmer Fudd voices is not the Fudd on the Hill heard here but the one by Little Roger and the Goosebumps. I also like the voice of Elmer on Steve Peck's Rabbit Habit.
This also makes me happy
Arthur, Billy ,Jeff, Eric and Greg are the best Elmer voices. Though Mel was still good. As for Egghead, Mel and Danny are the best voices.
Mel Blanc and Danny Webb were also great voice actors for Elmer Fudd too.
For me, it's Arthur Q. Bryan, Billy West, Jeff Bergman, Eric Bauza.
1. Arthur Q. Bryan
2. Mel Blanc
3. Billy West
4. Jeff Bergman
5. Danny Webb
5:48 oh drat that blasted rabbit.Where is he
5:52 that what you think rabbit
Hi Dave,I hope for the next looney tunes evolution is for foghorn leghorn
I say go for that, as Foghorn would say
To me, only Arthur Q. Bryan is the quintessential voice of Elmer Fudd.
you forgot tom kenny he voiced him in later webtoons
He did say the majority so some were missed.
I hate when people say Egghead is a prototype of Elmer, considering they existed at the same time.
The return of fat Elmer 8:15
Billy West briefly imitates Arthur Q. Bryan but he is the best voice.
You did this faster then the speedy Gonzalez voice evolution
Every single Voice Evolution is produced to release within a week of the main Evolution video. I said many, many, many times that I delayed the Speedy and Taz Voice Evolutions so I could include Space Jam 2 footage, as it had not yet been released.
As Space Jam 2 is released, there was no reason to delay the Elmer Voice Evolution.
Oh I didn’t know
Jeff Bergman sounds like billy west’s fudd
Elmer Fudd is a pretty good and a great antagonist and I think Arthur Q Bryan did really good for his voice impression and for Hal Smith I think he did okay just not as good as Arthur Q Bryan
And for Mel Blanc he did a decent voice for him it about others like Greg Burson, Billy West, as well as Jeff Bergman and even Eric barza I think they did really good of their voices and I had no idea that Eric barza voiced Elmer Fudd and one of the Looney Tunes games and then he voiced him in Space Jam a new Legacy overall one of the voice actors suits him pretty well and by the way I never know too much about Egghead and I do remember watching the cartoon which is called a day at the zoo on a VHS tape called Tweety and Friends and I did see him in Looney Tunes back in Action I didn't even really realize that Egghead appeared in Daffy Duck's quackbusters but however if I do see this movie I'm pretty sure we'll be a good and a great movie and as you said in that particular cartoon Evolution history of Elmer Fudd video Elmer Fudd and Egghead are cousins I kind of wish that but oh well.
Hal Smith was also the voice of Goofy
Also the one time voice of Pooh in between Sterling Holloway and Jim Cummings. Though he was probably best known Pooh franchise wise, as the original voice of Owl.
You seem to have trouble when doing the tiny toon adventures sound because you can’t hear it.
8:54 Frank Welker
Roy Rogers played Elmer Fudd in a feud there was
2
I think he only did the yodels. Mel definitely voiced Elmer in the short.
When it comes to modern voices for Elmer, Fudd, Billy West and Eric Bowser are the closest to Arthur but still have their own unique twist to it which is really appealing. Jeff Bennett’s voice is slightly different, but it’s still good, and everyone else is really trying hard but can’t really do it. Apparently Elmers actually quite a hard voice to nail down.

What Author Q Brian is the first he formed the classic Elmer Fud cartoon without him 😢
How can you underrate Mel blank you idiot
@Dimitri & Ginger Mourmourakis His Elmer was not good. He even admitted it himself.
Don’t tell me that there is going to be an dispute over opinions on voice actors
@@No-hd4cg That dolt started it lmao
Arthur Q Bryan and Billy West
I like Billy West but I just don’t understand why He stop voicing Elmer Fudd
My guess is because he’s 71 right now and probably can’t do the voice as well as he use to. While Eric Bauza the current voice of Elmer Fudd is 44 and can do the voice well.
Do an evolution on Sylvester Jr. He is 51 years old in 2021
Billy West is the best voice for Elmer Fudd! Same with Arthur Q. Bryan, Jeff Bergman, and Eric Bauza. Matk Kaulser did great as Egghead.
4:38 Fudd Frenanske
After Arthur Q Bryan, I actually like Billy West, but my money's on Jeff Bergman! 😀👍

I love Mel Blanc when does The Voice of Egghead, Arthur Q. Bryan is also awesome as Elmer Fudd, Hal Smith and Mel Blanc are great, Jeff Bregman is wonderful, Billy West is so funny and Eric Baula is one of The Best Voice Actors of Elmer Fudd!🤣👍🎙🤩⭐❤
Billy West and Arthur Q. Bryan are the best voices of Elmer. As much as I love Mel Blanc, his Elmer sounded off.
Can you do the evolution of the smurfs
8:03 he sounds like mario from hotel mario with elmer fudd's speech impediment
This september the next character is the smurfs?
That'll hold him alwight. Hahahaha!
How about Tom Kenny? He voiced Elmer in Webtoons.
No he didn’t, that was Billy West. There is absolutely no proof of Kenny having voiced his in webtoons or anywhere else.
Tom kenny voiced Elmer in some Webtoons according to Behind the Voices
Not sure, but it would've been nice if he did.
Danny Webb (1938-1939)
Hal wasn't that bad though Dave did the laugh slightly better of the two worst Elmer voices.
i don't understand how the audition work in looney tunes , we had mel , than gred , than joe , than jeff , than billy , than eric
and some times , mel , than greg , than joe , than billy , than jeff , than eric
they swamp voice actor for each character like bugs , daffy , tweety , marvin , porkey , yosemite sam , sylvester , elmer
i guess they can't be mel being the voice of 1000 characters
Warner bro is making a fourth matrix film talk about it. The trailer drops on Thursday
Shhhhhh be very very quiet. I’m hunting wabbits!
This always makes me laugh to death🤣🤣🤣🤣5:55
4:20, 5:11, 9:30 Be wery wery quiet! I'm hunting wabbits! Hahaha!
I had no idea there was a Looney Tunes Beatles cover album
Well I certainly wish Mel Blanc reprised his role as Elmer Fudd in Tiny Toon Adventures by doing voice recordings before he died marking Mel’s final performance as Elmer Fudd
Billy west arthur q byran and jeff bergman are my favotite
Arthur Q. Bryan was obviously, the most iconic voice for the character. None of the other voice actors could match his style, but I think Billy West got it the closest.
Hi
I think the green suited Egghead should be a separate character from Elmer. I love him. They should bring him back!
No. But I believe they should bring the real egghead with big eyes and black hair back in more good new cartoons.
@@tanktank9924 Nah, the green suit egghead
@@jubjub444 The green suit man was actually named Elmer on the lobby cards for "The Isle of Pingo Pongo" "Cinderella Meets Fella", and onscreen in "A Feud There Was", meaning he is not egghead and that Prototype-Elmer and the big eye black hair Egghead co-existed. Research it on Wikipedia if you don't believe me.
@@tanktank9924 Either way that "proto-type" Elmer should come back in my opinion. Wasn't he in a looney tunes movie credited as egghead? Alongside Elmer Fudd?
@@jubjub444 In "Daffy Duck's Quackbusters", the Looney Tunes Back in Action movie, and in Looney Tunes Cartoons also had Egghead returning decades later while going back to being bald again and being redesigned into looking like Elmer Fudd and wearing Elmer Fudd's Clothes and Derby Hat.
3:09
Sometimes, Elmer’s voice sounds like Mario in the Hotel Mario game cutscenes! It’s hillarious, when I think about it!
I saw Puls 2
My top 3:
1. Arthur Q. Bryan
2. Billy West
3. Jeff Bergman he sounded a lot better in the 90s
you forgot tom kenny watch the webtoons from 2004
He smoked more and more overtime
He sounds like he smoked cigarettes over the years
Is it me! Or does Dave Barry and Frank Welker version sound very much alike!
Dave 5:49
Frank 8:55
1. Arthur Q. Bryan
2. Billy West
3. Mel Blanc
4. Eric Bauza
5. Jeff Bergman
and
6. Brian Drummond
I think Bergman had a pretty good close enough match to Arthur Q Bryan but it has declined. I was watching the Looney Tunes Cartoons and I was thinking, "This Elmer sounds terrible the pitch is way off". I'm shocked that what I was listening to was Bergman. He sounds like a guy who is just saying Ws as Rs. Billy West is the best voice of Elmer now I would say. As you can see in the video he has corrected and has lost some of his own personal affection of his natural voice and became a better Elmer.
Y'all really hate Jeff Bergman so much, huh? I can tell lol.
I feel bad for y'all who have the "constructive criticism" disease, really.
Can you due garfiled next please
