That Annoying Aflac Duck is the Annoying Actor Gilbert Gottfried
I can’t stand this guy’s voice. Which makes it unfortunate that he is so ubiquitous. I also can’t stand the AFLAC commercials. Until today though I never realized that they were the same voice. I guess it was a case of willful ignorance that I failed to notice. I usually just tune it out. Gilbert though has been in about a zillions things, tv, movies, etc. I remember him most from the Problem Child movies (they suck but I watched them a few dozen times when I was a little kid). He was also the voice of the parrot, Iago, in Alladin and it’s multitude of spin off tv shows and sequels. His other credits are too numerous to list here.

I have to admire someone who’s getting paid to be Scooby Do’s voice, and refused to do a commercial that promoted something that he’s against in real life. Was it something to do with eating meat (?) or some other belief ? Anyway, I admire the dude! [ Wow, never thought I'd say that about him. ]
