Talk: Guy Smiley

Ready to Learn

Alrighty, then, whose the new Guy Smiley performer in this "Ready to Learn" commercial? -- 66.65.157.162 August 14, 2006

I'm guessing Eric, as he performed him last year, but of course guesses aren't worth much in an encyclopedia. His 2005 performance should be noted in the performer box, however. Chunk 16:56, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

Based on Dick Van Dyke?

Is He based on Dick Van Dyke? You can notice the simalrities in the early game shows (ie. What's My Part: Foot) his design and voice reminded me of him so I wonderen if he's based on him. -- Big V 18:13, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

Unlikely. Remember, his design was a standard Orange Gold pattern, dating back to Conrad Love, then with wider eyes in the HUD commercials before seeing active use on Sesame Street. The voice had been used by Jim Henson as far back as Professor Madcliffe on Sam and Friends. --Andrew, Aleal 18:26, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
