I've fallen victim to this many times.

For example, I think Father from Kids Next Door was voiced by Roger Rose and the Delightful Children were all Lauren Tom.

Is Eartha Kitt really the voice of Jack Spicer's ghost servant in Xiaolin Showdown.

And of course, Meet The Robinsons. Kelly Ripa as the T rex, Andre 3000 as the frog, Zach Tyler Eisen as Wilbur... I could go all day! Todd Marinovich is Bolt. Cade Mcnown is the tiger from the Jungle Book.

Jason Kreis was the British voice of Gex in Deep Cover Gecko.

Yeah, Jason Kreis ain't exactly a soccer star.

I used to think that Slinkman was voiced by Weird Al Yankovic.

I originally thought that Mister Smarty Smarts was voiced by Ian James Corlett

My mother thought Mark Wahlberg was Rhino in Bolt.

One of mine would be Kiefer Sutherland in Zookeeper. Reportedly, Sutherland had been cast in the film but was replaced with Nick Nolte in post-production.

I thought June Foray voiced the old car in Cars! Nope, that was a sound-alike.

I used to mistake Billy West (Ren and Stimpy, Futurama, and too many others to name) for all sorts of other people. Now that I've heard more of his work I can usually tell it's him, but he has the rather uncanny talent of sounding nothing at all like himself. In the episode of Batman:TAS where three kids each tell a story about their own version of Batman, Billy West was the voice of Robin in the Dick Sprang inspired segment, and you'd never know it. On Futurama, for a long time I thought Zap Brannigan's dialogue had been prerecorded by Phil Hartman before he was killed, and then I found out that West did all of it in a pretty flawless imitation. The man is incredible.

I seriously thought Athair in Sonic Underground was voiced by Sean Connery...it was Maurice La Marche doing a Sean Connery impression...

I thought it like Frank Welker, Casey Kasem voiced Shaggy the whole time until the new series hit with Matthew Lillard.

I had no idea it was Billy West who did the first DTV movie or Scott Menville did Shaggy Scooby Doo Get A Clue or the other random VA's who took over.

And I thought Dan Castanella was the second voice for Homer Simpson with the original voice dying or something,when in fact it was Dan the whole time.

I thought Casey Kasem voiced Shaggy in Scooby Doo Mystery Inc. Nope, that was Matthew Lillard. O _ O Casey apparently retired the role, and now Matthew's the new official voice. It had to happen- his voice was the only thing I enjoyed from the films!

Speaking of Scotts, at one point not too long ago Scott Innes was voicing Shaggy, Scooby-Doo, and Scrappy-Doo. I used to get his name confused with Scott Mc Neil though...

I wonder where Scott Innes went. His Shaggy and Scooby were quite good and a bright spot of the straight-to-video movies.

Are you kidding me? Linda Cardellini was brilliant as Velma,I really wish she ended up being the voice for Velma

Well at least she voiced Hot Dog Water,which also surprised me coulda sworn that was Grey De Lisle.

Grey De Lisle took over for Daphne after the suicide of Mary Kay Bergman.
