Marty Ingels, husband of Shirley Jones and an actor in his own right, passed away. He was 79. Most of his acting career involved gust starring on shows like Dick Van Dyke with his biggest role in I'm Dickens He's Fenster. For the sake of this blog, however, Ingels was more than that. He had voiced many of Hanna-Barbera's shows such as Auto Cat in the Cattanooga Cats, Beegle Beagle in The Grape Ape Show, and the voice of Pac-Man. Another show he guessed starred in was The Adams Family, which also at one point aired on Boomerang for Halloween.
Ingels' most popular cartoon role was that of Pac-Man. Produced by Hanna-Barbera, this was the first animated adaptation to a video game character. This and other shows he was on were a major part of Boomerang until the rebrand. Grape Ape was featured a lot on April Fools Monkey Day. Christmas Comes to Pacland aired A LOT for Boomerang's Christmas Party. No news as to if that block will be returning and if so what shows, but stay tuned to this block for the latest.
Condolences are with the family at this time.
