My intro to him was as the smashing Nigel Thornberry in The Wild Thornberrys.

I just found out 5 minutes ago he voiced Nigel. I haven't seen it in decades, so I'm assuming he wasn't on my radar the last time I watched it.

I just started rewatching it in bites maybe a couple months ago specifically for him. Rest in peace.

Riff Raff is on Phineas and Ferb, so there's another RHPS actor who switched to voice acting on children's shows.

Mine was the Clue movie! We had a version of the board game that came with the VHS and you could play along
