Classic Sesame Street: Typewriter Guy (W for Wall)

[SamWaterstonFanatic]

By the way, the name of the guy who voiced him is Andrew Duncan.

The first time I did not hear that famous noo noo noo noo at the beginning.

This is the second post in a row on this topic that I have read on this page! I did not notice it at first, but having watched the skit again and taken note, I realize what you guys mean! I wonder if this is the only one like that in this series.

@Smartboy8877: The "Q for Quiet" cartoon also lacked the Typewriter's "noo na noo" singing; it began with crowd noise which he tried to silence.

@hoopersghost

Thank you very much for the information! I have since watched that cartoon and seen that you are absolutely right!

Am I detecting a lack of noony noony in this one?

[Smartboy8877]

@ianbillericay

Would you like to kick around some theories as to why that is?

[lifer4164]

YES!

who was the animator for the typewriter cartoons??

[hoopersghost]

Jeff Hale--who animated and/or directed a LOT of cartoons for Sesame Street in the early to mid-70s.

@hoopersghost ok who did Typewriter Guy's voice?

[hoopersghost]

@microbusss: None of my sources mention the voice actor, unfortunately.

Another of the great typewriter series - makes one wonder what is on the other side of the wall after Mr. Type crashes through it (just like 'K' for 'key' - what was it that growled at the poor typewriter?)
