In 1939, Hugh Harman made the post-apocalypic holiday film, "Peace on Earth". Unfortunately, a complete print of "Earth" is not available on YouTube unless you want one of those reaction videos where YouTubers are watching it for the first time.
16 years later, producer Fred Quimby and producer-directors Bill Hanna & Joseph Barbera revisited the concept in "Good Will to Men".
After appearing in shorts with Woody Woodpecker and Fatso The Bear, Inspector Willoughby was granted his own series of shorts, directed by co-creator Paul J. Smith, who developed the character with Walter Lantz.
Some prototype shorts of a similar character had appeared between 1958-60, with Daws Butler essaying the role, but when the series launched, the part was given to Dallas McKennon, who performs all the voices in 1962's "Phoney Express":
Ensign Parker (Tim Conway) is assigned by Captain Binghamton (Joe Flynn) to teach self-defense to a new corps of nurses. Girl-shy Parker bumbles this assignment, but at least one nurse seems to have her eyes on him.
Joyce Bulifant guest stars in "Today, I Am a Man!":
Once production begins on Greg Berlanti's live-action adaptation of Scooby-Doo, the titular dog will have a familiar voice.
Frank Welker has been associated with the franchise from day 1, and took over the voice role of Scooby with What's New Scooby-Doo in 2002, shortly after Neil Fanning had essayed the role in the first live-action movie.
Netflix might want to consider landing a deal to repurpose this Scooby on TNT.......!

Stay tuned.
From season 3 of Room 222:
Mrs. Higgins (Ruth McDevitt, ex-Pistols & Petticoats) is teaching a class on sex education, but when a student has questions about STD's, the student's father (Walker Edmiston) is upset, and threatens the teacher's job...
Lily Tomlin brings her precocious 5 1/2 year old persona of Edith Ann back to television in the 3rd & final primetime special for ABC.
Edith Ann's Christmas (Just Say Noel), written by Tomlin's long time partner, Jane Wagner, sees Edith Ann (Tomlin) run away from home, but you know that won't last.
Tomlin & Wagner hired an independent studio to animate this show, after Klasky-Csupo had produced the first two specials, though the designs are similar to the K-C style.
From season 2 of McHale's Navy:
Ensign Parker (Tim Conway) is recruited to impersonate a British general (Conway in a dual role) while the general is on a mission. Henry Corden, Rolfe Sedan (who'd recur on The Addams Family a year later), and Walter Brooke (later of The Green Hornet) guest star in "The Great Impersonation":
