    Wait so Wakko’s voice is just a high pitched version of the guy who narrated Thomas the Tank Engine?

      No as he said John, not Ringo.

    As a child I never noticed Wakko had a beatles accent because im from Liverpool too so to me he was the only one that sounded "normal" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 kudos to Jess Harnell for such a convincing accent 👍

      My story is the opposite. I knew Wakko had a British accent but in my head I remembered them ALL as being British. Listened recently and realized it was only Wakko. Funny stuff.

    I think he sounds more like Ringo sometimes, like when he says "Minnesota has St. Paul." But he definitely does sound like higher-pitched John in this. That's awesome. :)

      Not sure what network, but the closed captioning on one of the movies would always put "(As Ringo)" on every single line of dialogue Wakko had throughout the film. Amusing that.

      Wakko is the greatest cartoon character to have ever been developed he's my favorate too.
      no one other than Jess could have given him such adorable cuteness and personality as he has he really did an outstanding job bringing our little wakko to life the part will always belong to Jess he is wakko..
      wakko is such an icon of the 90s and will always be important in all of wakko's fans lives 😋.. wakko is adorable cute and hilarious plus a talented musician he is the great wakkorotti and is also very affectionate and also wakko doesn't wear any pants lol 😋
