Someone once asked which cartoons Tex Avery did a voice in. Well, here's a full list:

"The Sneezimg Weasel"-the Weasel
"The Penguin Parade"-the Walrus
"Count Me Out"-Referee
"Hamateur Night"-Hippo
"The Bear's Tale"-Papa Bear
"Ghost Wanted"-Big Ghost
"Of Fox and Hounds"-Willoughby
"The Crackpot Quail"-Willoughby
"The Heckling Hare"-Willoughby
"Hold the Lion, Please"-Hippo
"Who Killed Who?"-Santa Claus
"Screwball Squirrel"-Meathead
Junior of "George and Junior"
"What Price Fleadom"-Brown Dog
"Bad Luck Blackie"-Dog
"Deputy Droopy"-Short Criminal

Also, the voice of the spider in "Meatless Flyday" was not Tex Avery. It is suspected that it was Cyrus Kendall, which I could agree with, since the spider was most likely a caricature of him, since they both wore that kind of outfit and were heavyset.

Tex was also the voice of the flea circus owner in "Dixieland Droopy" and I believe he also did the voice of the bull warning the wolf ("Sheep, ya durn fool!") in "Drag-along Droopy"

I could have sworn that was Tex voicing Buck Dodgers in Believe It Or Else. It really sounds like him.

I wouldn't know. I got most of this information from the IMDb (http://www.imdb.com)

I'm surprised the voice in Meatless Flyday wasn't Tex. It sounds the same as any other voice using the hyeh, hyeh, hyeh laugh. Admittedly, it was made(or at least released) after Tex left WB, but how can it be different? The other guy must've been some impressionist. (fwiw, I do an imitation of the laugh. Not sure I could sub that convincingly, though)
