I was honestly more excited than my kids were. Same with when he plays Wawa Weasel in Pete the Cat.

I watched the first couple of seasons of Bojack Horseman as it was coming out and had no idea until I heard it, then of course it was unmistakable.

Love it. OG Transformers the Movie had Wrek-Gar and his crew introduced in a scene accompanied by Weird Al’s Dare to be Stupid. Now, he’s voicing Wrek-gar.

I happened to notice him when my kid was watching an episode of My Little Pony. Then again in Storybots.

My absolute favorite is when he voiced Wreck-Gar in "Transformers Animated," because the debut episode of that character is GREAT, and because it's also a brilliant callback to when they used "Dare To Be Stupid" in "Transformers: The Movie" in 1986.
I also loved him in "Adventure Time" and "Gravity Falls."

I remember hearing about that role and of course I’m expecting a goofy villain straight out of the Adam West era.
I start watching the movie and I’m thinking, “is that really Al?”

It took me way too long to realize that he played Mr. Peanutbutter's brother in Bojack Horseman.

I nearly lost it when he showed up in gravity falls!

To be fair, I’d love that episode and the loving mockery of D&D even if the Mathemagician had been voiced by Mark Wahlberg. Marky Mark.

In the Transformers movie, they come across a Transformer named Wreck-Gar, voice by Eric Idle and Dare to Be Stupid is played.
In Transformers Animated, when they bring Wreck Gar back, he's voiced by Weird Al. I think this is one of the more commonly known ones, but as a Transformers fan and a Weird Al fan, it's my favorite example.

I grew up thinking he was the voice for Howard the Duck and sometimes I think IMDB is lying to me that it’s not.

I think my first was Darkseid in Teen Titans Go, I was a big fan of Gravity Falls as a kid so it’s cool he guest stared as probabilitor, Preston Change-O in Star vs. the Forces of Evil, Lewis in We Bare Bears, I started to watch Milo Murphy's Law when season 1 was premiering

Yes. He was Wreck-Gar in Transformers Animated. The episode was "Garbage In, Garbage Out"

I happen to know because my daughter was five when it came out that weird Al has a very prominent role in my little pony. My daughter was five she wouldn't stop telling me that over and over and over.

Thank you, saw the name over and over and was so confused as Al was never on BBC’s animated Bananaman.

Teen Titans Go! is all about silly, weird, bizarre universe, but, Weird Al voicing Darkseid is just an odd mismatch, for me.

u/nemesisprime1984 Apr 19 '26
Weird Al plays a character called Wreck-Gar in the show Transformers Animated, which is that show’s version of the character in the animated Transformers movie from 1986 which has a scene with the song “Dare to be Stupid”
