* Creator/ArnoldSchwarzenegger's French dubbing voice, Creator/DanielBeretta, sounds nothing like him, but is still a perfect mix of suave and badass. It's telling that he was chosen by Arnie himself after simply hearing him imitate a Russian accent on the phone (at the time of ''Film/RedHeat''). Beretta will really be a ToughActToFollow the day he decides to stop dubbing Arnie.

** Aside from being the french voice of many, MANY well-known actors like Harrison Ford, Richard Gere, Jeff Goldblum or even sometimes Sylvester Stallone, he is also known for voicing [[Film/BackToTheFuture Biff Tannen]], [[WesternAnimation/ToyStory Buzz Lightyear]], The Genie in ''Aladdin'', and Batman in all his 90s animated incarnations. All done with an exceptionally natural and invested delivery. In fact, his performance as Batman was so well-received that when Warner released a Blu-ray of ''WesternAnimation/BatmanMaskOfThePhantasm'' with the Quebec dub instead, many fans sent complaints to the company.

* Almost any cartoon in which Roger Carel has got a part. What's really impressive is how he can take numerous (and always funny) voices. His very different portrayals of Sir Hiss from Robin Hood and Kaa in The Jungle Book, for instance, considerably diminished the feeling that Sir Hiss was a rip-off of Kaa (while in the original, it's very clear as both have the same voice). Carel is also known for having dubbed: Basil of Baker Street (from ''The Great Mouse Detective''), Bernard (from ''The Rescuers''), numerous side characters in ''The Sylvester and Tweety Mysteries'', Mickey Mouse himself in some shorts, Kermit the Frog from ''The Muppet Show'' (a role in which he was constantly adding jokes improvised during the dubbing sessions), the list goes on. A last one deserves expanding: he did almost EVERY character in ''The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh'', starting with Winnie himself. He also did Rabbit ''and Piglet''. The most amazing part is that he dubbed the three characters in a row in scenes [[TalkingToHimself where they are interacting]]. Even to this day, although retired, Carel can still successfully do this trick, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAOzZaUNQvw as seen in this video which is an extract from a recent interview]].

* The French Dub of ''WesternAnimation/TimothyGoesToSchool''. While the original English version of the show is fun and relaxing to lesson to. The French voices for some of the characters like Timothy and Lilly are very cute. Special mention goes to Yoko who sounds downright adorable when ever she speaks in the French version and her French actor also does the voice of Lindsay in ''WesternAnimation/Total Drama''.

* ''Gurren Lagann''. While the original Japanese version was notable for having very mediocre voice acting which was off-sync from the animation, the French dub managed to correct these flaws, something rarely heard in French dubs of Japanese anime. The French voice actors of pretty much every character deliver outstanding and powerful performances, particularily Yoko and Kamina. Adeline Chetail's performance as Nia is also a notable improvement over Yukari Fukui's acting.

** Fun fact : the French voice actors of Buster and Babs Bunny are also the voices of Ranma male and female.

* Speaking of Richard Darbois, special mention goes out to not only the French European dub of ''WesternAnimation/AllDogsGoToHeaven'', but the Canadian French dub as well. Personally, this troper finds both dubs on par with the original, if not better. Sadly, [[KeepCirculatingTheTapes the French Canadian dub was only released to VHS, as all DVD releases in Canada use the European dub]].

** Both of Itchy's French voice actors have unique portrayals of the character in terms of performance: Jacques Frantz (European) does a great job in sounding more closely to Creator/DomDeluise at times, while Guy Nadon (Canadian) does a good job in giving Itchy his own character.

* The French dub of ''Anime/SamuraiChamploo'' is considered one of the best French anime dubs ever (especially when you consider some ''[[FistOFTheNorthStar other]]'' dubs), with a spot-on cast, decent acting and even a few extras -- it has Mugen giving Jin the nickname "[[Music/JohnLennon Lennon]]", for instance.

* ''WesternAnimation/WinxClub'', the French dub. I've seen both English versions, and the French version pwns them both. All the French voices are the ones I consider to be the characters' true voices. It probably helps that French and Italian are very similar languages.

* The French dub for the first two ''VideoGame/Tenchu'' games is great, though Rikimaru's voice actor from the first game really takes the cake with his deep, noble voice that fits the character to a T. It also helps that, in comparison, the English dub of the first game is poor to [[SoBadItsGood almost comedic levels]].
