Pat Harrington Jr. who was best known for his acting career has passed away yesterday. He was 86. Pat was best known for his roles in One Day at a Time as well as playing John's dad in A Garfield Christmas. For the sake of this blog, he was the voice of The Inspector which was a series of Depatie-Freleng theatrical cartoons, William Shakesbear in Yo Yogi, and Moe (one of the Three Stooges) in The New Scooby-Doo Movies among others. He also guest starred in a couple of episodes of The Munsters, which used to air on Boomerang a few years back during Halloween.
The Inspector aired on Boomerang as part of The Pink Panther package of cartoons. The cartoons aired there until pretty close to the rebrand. The New Scooby-Doo Movies continue to air weekdays at 11am on Boomerang.
Condolences to the family at this time.
