Probably because Babs was played by Tress MacNeille…

Fred Savage is the voice of Oswald the Octopus in the most excellent _Oswald_.

Also in the cast are David Lander (aka Squiggy from Laverne and Shirley) and Laraine Newman (from the original SNL cast). They both seem to have done a bunch of voice work over the years. You sure don’t see them in regular roles very often.

Richard Kind, who plays an occasional character, also seems to have done a lot of voice work.

I was surprised to learn that Alan Young, best known for playing Wilber on **Mr. Ed** , is the voice of Scrooge McDuck.
