    Jeff Bergman is a great successor to Daws Butler, also I’m in the minority when I say this… I honestly didn’t think that Dan Aykroyd sounded too bad as Yogi Bear, I can definitely tell that he was passionate about the character and it definitely shows in his performance. Sure the movie is a bit mediocre, but I still had fun with the film I just wished that the script was better.

    Mel Blanc as Yogi is quite a surprise. I almost wouldn't recognize him if I didn't know it prior, but you can pick out just a hint of his Barney Rubble, as both characters were based off of Art Carney. As for his different album voices, I once read that Daws Butler had a contract with a certain record label, and couldn't do any of his character voices outside of that label. When I was really little, I had this Peter Pan Yogi Bear book and record, and unsurprisingly no one reprised their roles, but the voice actors for that record clearly had no idea what any of the characters sounded like. Boo Boo's voice was terrible. Think the worst impersonation of Toad from the Mario cartoons you ever heard.

    I'm Shocked that Jack Mercer did Yogi Bear's voice He's best as the voices of cartoon icons Popeye and Felix the Cat and Magilla Gorilla's voice Allan Melvin also there's Mel Blanc and Hal Smith doing his voice but the original voice Daws Butler was around until he passed in 1988 Daws Butler is best what he did for Yogi.

    Pretty good voice Evolution on Yogi Bear I have heard Daws Butler's performances while watching a few of the cartoons of the boomerang Family Feast back in 2020 I also remember watching the crossover between various Hannah Barbara characters and even Casper the Friendly Ghost in this Christmas special and I do remember a few of the Christmas specials back then when they're aired on Boomerang 2 years prior and for Jeff bergman's performances as Yogi is also good too so both of them are pretty great in my book.
    Editor's note I heard Greg Burson's performance as Yogi in Yo Yogi, Yogi, the Easter Bear, Arabian Nights and the new Yogi Bear show 1988, and I thought he is a good replacement of Butler too bad that he left us pretty soon because he was struggling with depression and alcoholism.

    What exactly got Greg Burson “blacklisted”? I know he had cancer(?) around that time. Is this what you meant?
    That being said what was going on with Gilbert Mack and Keith Scott? Sounding nothing like Yogi, not just Daws Butler.
    Overall I prefer if they went with Maurice LaMarche, as he’s my favorite modern Yogi, much like preferring Joe Alaskey over Jeff Bergman in Looney Tunes.
    Jeff is 3rd after Billy West, I wish they were used more.
