Performer?
I don't intend to start one of these again, but does anyone have a video of the episode to confirm who performs this character? -- Jon (talk) 20:05, April 3, 2012 (UTC)
- Episode 1285 can be purchased through iTunes. It's not Frank Oz (Max's first guess, in July) and it doesn't sound at all like Fran Brill to me either. -- Andrew Leal (talk) 20:19, April 3, 2012 (UTC)
- Well, it can't be either Frank Oz or Fran Brill. I'd safely say it's Kathryn Mullen performing Mrs. Balinski. Did you guys have any idea who performed her in that episode? -- Maxwell Goudiss (talk) 20:22, April 3, 2012 (UTC)
- Her voice is hard to make out clearly; it's overshadowed by the rain SFX. The lip-sync is also off on her; so it could be that someone else (who can do a Polish accent) dubbed her voice before or after. - Oscarfan 20:25, April 3, 2012 (UTC)
- Yeah, it doesn't sound like any Muppeteer voice I'm familiar with. This is likely to be a longshot, but could it be Olga Felgemacher? -- Jon (talk) 20:05, April 3, 2012 (UTC)
- Sounds like Carmen Osbahr to me. —Scott (message me) 03:17, April 4, 2012 (UTC)
It does, but I didn't consider that since technically it couldn't be Osbahr; she wasn't around for Season 10, after all ;) Anyway, the voice doesn't sound like either Kathy Mullen or Cheryl Blaylock who were both around for that season, so that's basically why I considered Olga Felgemacher (I'll need to really look in to that before I come to that conclusion though). -- Jon (talk) 20:05, April 3, 2012 (UTC)
- My bad. I didn't look at the article. Just saw the file posted and commented without thinking. *Hits self with frying pan over head* —Scott (message me) 17:46, April 4, 2012 (UTC)
- That's okay. Here (at 0:23) is a bit of Felgemacher's role "Didi" from Shining Time Station for comparison. The two characters sound very similar to me, even though they're different accents. -- Jon (talk) 18:28, April 4, 2012 (UTC)
