Babu, who guest-starred in "Mystery in Persia" of The New Scooby-Doo Movies, was voiced by Joe Besser. Besser had roots in comedy in the 1940s and 1950s, and was a background character in many Abbott & Costello comedy specials. Later, he was briefly one of the Three Stooges (who also guest-starred twice in The New Scooby-Doo Movies) after Shemp Howard's unexpected death.

I remember being so confused by this episode as a kid as I had no idea who the characters were. I had at least heard of everyone else in the other ones but the only Jeannie I knew was I dream of Jeannie and this had all these other people.

I only know of the "I Dream of Jeannie" version too, and I believe the cartoon with Babu and Corey and Henry was a cartoon spin-off of the original live action? I don't have 100% confirmation or anything, but that's what I've always I thought.

But I thought Wikipedia was the ultimate source of knowledge? Are you inferring that the information on there is somehow less than reliable? Haha. Leave a Reply. |
