Howie Mandel Prepping Revival of '90s Cartoon Series Bobby's World

The plot revolved around high-pitched Bobby Generic, who aged in real time concurrently with the show, and his interactions with the “Generic” family, including father Howard (also voiced by Mandel). Often the stories revolved around Bobby’s imaginative flights into alternate universes and his literal interpretations of colloquialisms, with episodes usually beginning with a live-action Mandel directly addressing the story’s connection to his childhood, before moving into the animated narrative. Other characters were voiced by <em>Saturday Night Live </em>alum Gail Matthius. Despite its relative obscurity today, Bobby’s World was actually nominated for multiple Daytime Emmys during its run, including Outstanding Animated Program and was, as Mandel notes to EW, <em>“No. 1 for nine years on Saturday morning.”</em></p> <strong>Click to continue reading <a href="https://screenrant.com/bobbys-world-revival-howie-mandel/">Howie Mandel Prepping Revival of '90s Cartoon Series Bobby's World</a></strong><br /><br /> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://screenrant.com/bobbys-world-revival-howie-mandel/">Howie Mandel Prepping Revival of '90s Cartoon Series Bobby's World</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://screenrant.com/">ScreenRant</a>
