- June Foray making a rare on-screen appearance on the Johnny Carson show on CBS some time around September 1955 and sounding very much like Rocky the Flying Squirrel. Bonus footage at the end of fellow famed voice/cartoon actors Sara Berner and John Stephenson, also on the Carson show from around the same time.
My mom would love these old time TV clips.
Also, RIP June Foray. :(
Comedy gold! June Foray, the Queen of Voiceovers for so many beloved TV characters, and a very young Johnny Carson...what a great pair! These skits are hilarious. And did I see the Wicked Witch of the West show up as her mother?
Thank goodness for YT. Regular TV is goat tripe. 😂
Foray was also one of the early members of ASIFA-Hollywood, the society devoted to promoting and encouraging animation. She is credited with the establishment of the Annie Awards, as well as being instrumental in the creation of the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature in 2001. In 2012, she received her first Emmy Award nomination, in the category of Outstanding Performer in an Animated Program for her role as Mrs. Cauldron on The Garfield Show: Which Witch. At age 94, she was the oldest entertainer to be nominated for, and receive, an Emmy Award.
This stuff is still funny 66 years later!
She was one of the best voice actors of all time....everything she did became iconic.
RIP Ms. June Foray(99; Sept. 1917-July 26th, 1917)!!!
axelrayne69 My God she had a short life! And she looks like an adult here.
Lmaoo what the hell?
Died before she was born, truly a legend before her time. *moment of silence*
But seriously, if she died 7/26/2017, she barely missed her 100th bday. That sort of seems like being cheated in spite of having an amazingly long and productive life. What a legacy she left behind!
How did she keep from blinking while she froze wide-eyed with that toaster in her hand? Gotta love this lady! She must have been a delight to work with. According to a Tex Avery documentary, she was his favorite female voice artist.
yeah I love all the voices she does. I think it's pretty cool how she's still in the business and she's turning 100.
Yeah, June was certainly one of the best. A real treasure.
The voice of Rocky the Flying Squirrel
Love June!!
+Eddie Lester shes kind of cute in this show
Wow, cool! She's a year and two months away from 100!
John Stephenson was more or less part of the cast. He appeared in the episodes playing this same character, reading fictional newscasts and setting up the Carson sketches. Love seeing Stephenson on-camera. He had a commanding voice.
RIP June
I looked up this clip last week, just a few days before June passed away. The day Michael Jackson died, I was trying to do the moonwalk and then I found out he died. It's so strange how those things can happen. I think June would've made a great comedic actress for TV but I'm glad she stuck to voice acting.
Her original ambition was to be a dramatic actress. I think she drifted toward voice work because that's what she was offered.
The jokes still hold up, johnny carson is king of entertainment!
Lol June should have clocked Johnny with the toaster! Great sketch right here, that newspaper gag was really good.
June had a lot of versatility.
The people from the older days were so much more talented.
Back in the day when Carson was good
I think Carson was always good. So much better than the crap today
She is doing her Rocky voice
June Foray! Hokey Smoke!
Foray started doing TV voice acting in 1958.
Guess what she's still alive
Although she was voice acting in movies and theatrical shorts since the 40s.
+Tornado1994 - She did radio in 1929, when she was 12.
Ima SuperPerson She didn't start doing radio until 1931 not 1929. When she was 13.
Anthony Addison Foray turned 97 on September 18(She was born in 1918 or 1917, most sources state 1918) Alan Young was born November 1,1919. He just turned 96 and is STILL alive.
Wow, 60 years have passed.
June played a similar "bathrobe and curlers" wife in Stan Freberg's "Chun King Chow Mein Hour" special in February 1962.
How did he keep a straight face when everyone else was laughing? That must have been very difficult.
Yes Alan....very interesting person.It is sad that people like her were behind the scenes...we never saw them..
June Foray was amazing and irreplaceable. Interesting scene in this video where the visiting "mother-in-law" calls Johnny a worthless no-good bum and it turns out she's his mother, not June's. Kind of what his real mother thought of him.
RIP
so skinny when he was younger!
2017.
Good gosh Ms. Foray was such a tiny thing! However, she was quite the talented live actor and voice actor.
💖💖💖💖 Love June.
Oh that Colette.
Ironically from what I've read the character in this skit wasn't too far off from Carson's real mother.
Just a guess, but I think that June is doing Audrey Meadows from "The Honeymooners." Sounds awfully similar, with a hint of a New York accent. "The Honeymooners" would have been on when this was filmed. Her ability to do the impression may have been why she makes this rare on-screen appearance.
Hokey smokes!
Rocky Squirrel.
June did an episode of Ozzie and Harriet, she was a customer in a lamp store and purchased an expensive ugly lamp.
Carson was amazing even on this crappy show
June was the voice of "Rocket J. squirrel.
Funny then. Funny now.🌹🌹🌹
The voice of Rocky the Flying Squirrel
june foray was cool rip
This was nice to watch
