| 1 | * DawsonCasting: Leroy's voice actor, [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walter_Tetley Walter Tetley]], was in his twenties when the show started, and in his ''forties'' when it ended. Justified because Tetley [[NotGrowingUpSucks never hit puberty]]: either due to a condition along the lines of [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kallmann_syndrome Kallmann syndrome]], or—if costar Bill Scott wasn't just joking—because his mother had him castrated so he could keep taking child roles. |

| 3 | ** Floyd the barber was originally voiced by Creator/MelBlanc until Arthur Q. Bryan took over in December 1942. |
| 4 | ** Marjorie went through three different actresses over the course of the series: Creator/LureneTuttle, Louise Erickson, and Mary Lee Robb. |
| 5 | ** Willard Waterman replaced Harold Peary as the voice of Gildersleeve in 1950 when Peary left NBC for CBS (but to his chagrin, was not allowed to take the Gildersleeve character with him). The two voices sound so much alike that the only obvious difference is that Waterman never did Gildersleeve's trademark laugh (although this was done more out of respect for Peary rather than Waterman not being able to). |
