More about the set-up, if anyone is interested. For most of the series we worked in a large studio. It was "double hung," which will mean nothing to anyone outside of radio. It means that the entire, huge studio was hung on cables inside the building, to avoid exterior vibration that could hurt soun...

P.S. Our director, Del, played human Astro's dad.

My Dad worked on the 80's seiries, and while he was rummaging through his stuff he found 2 pictures!

[QUOTE=Astro Forever;83741]Very glad to hear from you again, welcome back! :) Technical question: there's a scene with Alvin speaking with Astro's dad. If I recall correctly, both voices were from the same actor. Did the actor quickly switched voices or did he record one character and then the other...

P.S. We met several times with the Japanese producers. It was pretty big event. None of us could speak to each other, but we were all very pleased. We cast members were all a bit bitter afterward. Our American producer, we thought, was a bit of a . . . well, he had big talk, and then nothing happene...

I know that there is confusion as to who did what. The principal cast members were: Patty Whitely (pregnant when we did the pilot!) as Astro. Paul Nelson was Atlas. Richard Ganoung was Astro's dad. Kahlei Slick was Astro's mom. Dave Miller and I played many clean-up parts, and so we got to be in eve...
