Interview: David Kaufman, Actor, Voice-Over Artist, a.k.a. Danny Phantom!

[anonymanity]

It would be great to have Danny Phantom meet the Ghostbusters and for them to team up in fighting ghosts!

[anonymanity]

Danny Phantom is similar to the science fiction show Stargate SG-1 in the following ways:

the Stargate=the Ghost Portal

Daniel Jackson=Daniel, Jack's son

Jack=Jack

Sam=Sam

Teal'c=Tucker

Vala=Valerie

Ra=Hotep-Ra

David Kaufman, who voiced Danny Phantom, also played Mark Gilmore in the Stargate SG-1 season 8 episode "Zero Hour."

Both shows have an episode in which Earth is made intangible (Danny Phantom season 3 finale: "Phantom Planet," Stargate SG-1 season 10: "The Road Not Taken").

[garoseann6]

[Bubblegrl1017]

David: "Which is a lesson, never let things go."

Why did Danny Phantom have to go? :(

[husoilder132]

He played Rubyn in green lantern pretty well.

[AdrianLelu]

[nickysk8rchick]

Davin/Danny, watever age i am, (15 now *chouch*) i will ALWAYS love ur work and voice. <3

[Brunetta6]

DAVID.

You're the most famous for Danny Phantom and everyone knows it! I'm sure you can't ASK Butch for a second season... but can you talk to him about something called Danny Phantom S? It's a show proposal I sent in just recently. I think it'd be a HUGE hit and I think you'd like it too!

Always a fan ^-^

- Brunetta6

[SarahSquared2]

Everytime David opened his mouth I just saw Danny.

[theDPcrew14]

I LOVE YOU DAVID KAUFMAN!!!!! PLEASE TELL BUTCH HARTMAN TO MAKE ANOTHER SEASON OF DANNY PHANTOM. I LOVE YOOOOOOU!!!!! BTW YOU'RE AN AWESOME SINGER!

[Cami7Anni]

David should say that to Butch: DONT EVER LET THINGS GO !! *cough* Danny Phantom *cough*

[AutumnTheFall]

Daivide kaufman How did u make ur self sound lik a young 14 year old boy on danny phatom and why did nick quit playing it cuz alot of people miss it????

[Mishel88]

R.I.P Danny! :'( Love his voice sins i was young! :C

[greenandwhite101]

Funny, he talked about how he knew "Sam." Of course you do, after all she is your girlfriend! Phantom4Ever!

[AlylovesDP]

come back Danny we love u i am missin a piece of me thumbs up if ur missing a piece of u since dp has gone

[cakecrumb095]

It's hard to listen to his voice and not think of Danny anymore. When he started singing I was imagining Danny on stage and not him. I love his voice anyways. Probably my favorite attribute of Danny actually. I wish he would star in something else soon.

[nuhnuhniley4ever]

Danny Phantom <3 i've been obsessed with that show since it aired on April 3,2004! i just celebrated the Dannyversary this last Sunday! 7 years! <3 <3 <3

I loved the beginning where you guys were "stoned" :)

[Brittanyfan8426]

Will danny phantom come back :( plz bring it back

[MJJBAD87]

See....I love Danny Phantom... My friends and I play it as a game all the time... and wathcing this video brought a shocking realization to me.....I'm finding myself being more and more jelouse of Gracie as this video progresses.... I wish my dad was Danny Phantom. : ) I'd walk around the house going " Daddy! Can you do Danny's Voice??!!!?"

[cakecrumb095]

@MJJBAD87 So true. Well wanting to be Gracie would be a little too much for me but I would love to be a personal friend.

[RikuxDaisukeNiwa13]

I loooveee Danny Phantom's voice<333.

He's so amazing.

Thanks so much Mr. Kaufman! You're pretty well known :D

[KCloopydooshow]

I heard David was murdered on 24 hour mystery. Please tell me my ears were playing tricks on me! :(

[buddysis1998]

@KCloopydooshow It's a lie. look on wikipedia. He has NO death date yet

[frasek06]

@KCloopydooshow its a lie :D

[theoptimismcoverup]

I love Danny phantom! we should protest it back on the air. i would've given the money back he lost for advertising the ultimate enemy with help, am i right!?

[theoptimismcoverup]

I love Danny phantom! we should protest it back on the air. You know that Butch hartman spent $2,00,000 for The ultimate enemy in advertising and toys at burger king, and only got 50,000 back. I would've given the $1,950,000 back wiht help! Am I right!

[frasek06]

@theoptimismcoverup heck yeah!

[julielaughs14]

I love hearing hints of Danny in his voice...ahhhhh, such a great show... :D

[RandomFriends602]

Danny Phantom is Awesome!! Doesn't everybody want his superpowers?

[julielaughs14]

@RandomFriends602 You know what I want more than that? The show back on with new episodes. :( <3

[LatiasSaphira]

Crazy that he could pull off a teenager, but he did it so incredibly well.

Thank you, David, for four great years of Danny Phantom, along with the various guest appearances in shows like Lie To Me, The Closer, CSI, and others. Thank you, thank you, thank you. <33333

[MTrench4life13]

@83phatman that's because he is LOL

[emilyexceptional]

David's voice sounds really cute, for a 14 year old boy :D lol.

[PanicDPhantom]

haha i love the begining Its like were stoned or something XD haha you two are like my friend sarah and i.

[83phatman]

He still sounds like Marty McFly from the animated "Back to the Future". Guy will literally steal Fox's career if he tried (though he's semi-retired anyway)

[stsars13]

Omg...Danny Phantom....X3

[831camera]

DEXTER DOUGLAS!!!!!!!

BRING BACK THE FREAKAZOID! LOL

[philophobiiaax]

I was hoping the voice actor of Danny would be atleast some-what cute seeing as I used to have a HUGE crush on him when I was little. LOLOLOL. :D

[cakecrumb095]

@philophobiiaax OMG me too lol. I wished he was a teenager. Well his voice is mor important then what he looks like I guess.

[MoveYourCows]

@Meganphantom i wish it would come back too but the story kind of ended :(

[AHB123star]

@Meganphantom I miss DP too :(

[xekiest]

@Meganphantom it is on the air???

[susedon]

@Meganphantom But DP can never come back because the secret is out that Danny is *Danny*. if they did, they might pull a Mario, and have him wake up and it was all a dream. :(

[Luigi101girl]

@susedon well they should do that! lol

[winonage]

@susedon Couldn't they make prequels?? :')

[animabi]

geez, popular roles are nothin' :3

what about our fav geek, dexter douglas fdrom freakazoid! ?

[PokemonRaichu26]

Danny Phantom is definetly my favorite show.

And David has a really nice voice.

I remember the Buzz on Maggie. xD

[PhantomKirbyKid]

Danny was originally going to be played by a 14 yr-old boy, but Butch got David instead. Apparently the actual kid sounded too young.

[Jakgoeswee]

David, you are amazing. <333 Thank you for making Danny sound EPIC.

[ilocdannyphantom]

I LOV U!!!

DANNY P IS MY FAV THING IN THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!

thnx for the best show ever!!

[ADayAtTheSpa]

I just LOVE Danny Phantom! It is my favorite tv show ever! I think you did a great job with the voice acting for Danny.

I just really really wish they hadn't canceled it! I like DP so much I actually started a petition to get it back on the air. And hopefully one day I'll hae enough signatures to get Dp back on the air! =)

[summiitx]

@ADayAtTheSpa I miss that show but you have to admit, the finale was pwnsome :3

[savannah101130120]

[ButterycupRose]

[SuperGinger94]

[ilovenatW]

[holyhellitsautumn]

i like how everyone is all excited about how much he sounds like danny..what i'd adrore to know is who he played on justice league. that happens to be a show i miss alot along with dp

[TheGirlWhoDubs98]

If David ever reads this,

You're wonderful! Just plain WONDERFUL! And so much more! You play the voices of characters on two of my fav. cartoons (Danny Phantom and Buzz on Maggie) and you do/did an awesome job! Keep up the great work!

LOL The ending!

[DannyPhantomlover12]

OMG he sounds EXACTLY like Danny Phantom in real life!! He just sounds like an OLDER version on Danny. THAT'S SOOOOO COOL!!!!

I hope they eventully give up on the whole cancelation thing and make a new season of Danny Phantom, and they could be older!!!

[livinlarge18]

It's his natural voice like how Veronica Taylor's natural voice is May from Pokemon

[TurtwigGirl]

i agree but not older.

[cakecrumb095]

@DannyPhantomlover12 If thats the case, why not just make a spin off with Danielle? As far as I'm concerened, she was VERY popular.

[1996hailey]

Wow How does he use his powers

[Headbanger142]

Whatever happened to Nickelodeon? Danny Phantom was pretty good. The shows today are garbage.

[bbfan77]

OMG I SO LOVE HIS VOICE! He sounds so beautiful..... totally like Danny Phantom in real life... I thought he was making his voice higher or something... but it's exactly the same! :D

YAY! DAVID KAUFMAN! :D

[flamedalchemist]

Yeah I know!!! Danny's laugh IS HIS laugh :D so cool! I've been trying to find out what David looks like and sounds like as a person, so happy to have found this!

[autonoe1313]

♥AHHH!♥

[DoctorCult]

Haha, Daddy Phantom, that's cute.

[Xxxsorrow]

That laughter on 7:34 is so funny. I repeat it over, and over, and over...hahahahahahha

[Xxxsorrow]

Hehe, David Kaufman is great! I really like the cartoon Danny Phantom. Well, like is a small word. I'm obsessed with it XD :)

[firstjohn47and8]

David look a bit like Roman Polanski in his younger days.

[PiratePrincessDPGurl]

He sounds alittle different in person. But i still love David, he's amazing, i really hope the show comes back.

[webbah5678923]

David Kaufman is amazing...

the danny phantom at the end was really random... as well as the one after they mentioned Aldrin on the Buzz on Maggie

[backinvogue]

Oh Sam you are a natural!! You couldn't write a better ending to this blog!! Too funny!

[FlowingGeisha]

His name is the Friends producer. lol I've known David since College UCLA.

[grillgirll]

Funny!Yeahm John McCain puts me to sleep too - but Sarah Palin gives me NIGHTMARES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[opendoor1983]

Oh, my goodness.......This made me laugh so hard. It was quite painful since the 'better half' was sleeping and I was trying to keep from waking him up!!! HUGELY FUNNY!!!!

[2cents51]

Oh my goodness, I laughed so hard.

Genius pure genius.

[MidgeDog]

Great family & great Vlog! Would love to hear your thoughts on the current political situation Sam.

[CAROLKL]

Are you two cute together or what!!!!!!

[meed29plussome]

Excellent - As always!!

Seeing Sam slither into the couch, my mind went to David covering him with a little blankie & singing a lullabye in a hushed Daddy voice.

To be a fly on a wall at a gathering with the lot of you, the head would be back & forth like tennis to listen to all as it could be a comedy turned musical to dramatic to...to... and you would want to miss NOTHING!! I hope flies laugh quietly. If not, I'd miss it all as someone would hear & then SPLAT!! Bye-bye goes the fly!!

[skw3rl]

love danny phantom at the end there.

[1DRock37167]

Laugh a minute in that house, can I come for Thanksgiving?

[ElfBoyProduction]

Triple love friend fridays

[frugalfriday]

now we know the entire Kaufman family.. and they're all wonderful in their own way.

[VLPRESL]

sam falling asleep during a conversation about politics? the world is over as we know it! hehehe. hilarious reaction from david. you guys must have lots of fun during your game night. such a great family of funny and talented people! next up... henry?? xoxoxo-vicki

[rspringt]

same here this is the first time sam has falled asleep in any of his blogs. I mean if he gets that bored when someone talks to him about politics, why does he ask them about it. I wonder if sam pretend to that the end of the blog to have david react like that.

[VLPRESL]

teresa, sam was just teasing:-) i thought it was funny, didn't you? remember... sam has a wicked sense of humor:-) xoxo-vicki

[Nobbyboy2]

rspringt, gee, ya think?

[rick33323]

Extra! Extra!

This is what we love about friend Fridays, from touching to politics to insanity all with a smile & a song.

[gghollandgg]

david should add this "Featured Guest" to his amazing resume.  Fun guy, great family!

[grillgirll]

Very funny! David is a master at the dead pan! Your friends are always interesting and funny. Thanks for this vlog. I also loved the heads getting smaller and smaller "I feel like we're stoned" - haha

[MrMcMusic01]

*tori*

[sparkybennett]

the last minute of this vlog is brilliantly hysterical

[Sheliabluerose]

totally agree!!!

[puffyjo]

Gracie is one of the cutest little girls I have ever seen . and I have 2 girls of my own. But I have to say that she is one of a kind. but i can also understand how you feel about the business. its rough and tough. I would protest my kids too. unless I was fully involved like I did when both my girls were in a movie. we had a ball making this movie. it was a blast.
