6	Eric Adrian Bauza (born December 7, 1979 in Toronto, Ontario) is a Filipino-Canadian-American animator-turned-voice actor and stand-up comedian who, despite being a bit newer to the biz next to his contemporaries, has made quite the presence as of late.
7
8	He got his start as a character designer and layout artist at various studios, including working on both the ''WesternAnimation/TheBraveLittleToaster'' sequels and ''WesternAnimation/TheRippingFriends'', which acquainted him with the animation world, and he would soon get his first big role on the short lived ''WesternAnimation/RenAndStimpyAdultPartyCartoon'' as the new voice of the titular Stimpy, after the original voice actor (Creator/BillyWest) vowed never to work with Creator/JohnKricfalusi ever again due to his SmallNameBigEgo attitude.
9

He is one of the current voices of WesternAnimation/BugsBunny, WesternAnimation/DaffyDuck, and [[WesternAnimation/SylvesterTheCatAndTweetyBird Tweety Bird]] as well.
11
12	He can also be found on more adult-oriented fare, including several ''Website/Channel101'' shorts.

109	!!Tropes relating to Eric Bauza and his work.
110	* ManOfAThousandVoices: Similar to his other Looney Tunes co-stars, Eric has voice every Looney Tunes character at one point. He even voiced Penelope and Granny for ''Looney Tunes: World of Mayhem''. Bauza cites Mel Blanc as the reason he wanted to do voice acting.
111	-->'''Bauza:''' [[https://twitter.com/bauzilla/status/1515028884533792771?s=20 I may never be able to replace Mel Blanc, I'm just very lucky to have a fraction of his talent.]]
112	* MemeRoleReprise: When Forghorn Leghorn crossover memes started taking off in late-April 2024, [[https://twitter.com/bauzilla/status/1782844117736910961 Bauza contributed his own reading of a Twitter meme]], where Leghorn is reprimanding Vegeta from ''Anime/DragonBallZ'' about his Final Flash attack in his typical [[YouTalkTooMuch overly rambly nature]].
113	* NiceGuy: Not because he's Canadian, which Eric jokes about a lot in interviews. At conventions, Eric gives voice acting advice to younger kids and gives them free artwork of Bugs Bunny.
114	* PromotedFanboy: Bauza went from watching the Looney Tunes as a kid to being one of the primary voice actors for almost ''all'' of them.
115	* WordOfSaintPaul: Bauza joked in a interview with NPR that Marvin the Martian celebrates Thanksgiving in August, as that is the month Martians have their Thanksgiving.
