Gogo Dodo
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gogo Dodo is a fictional character from the animated television series Tiny Toon Adventures. Gogo is voiced by Frank Welker.
A purple, green and blue dodo, Gogo was noted for performing various bizarre sight gags or stunts. Furthering this end, Gogo made his home in the Daliesque realm known as Wackyland, a surreal land where backgrounds changed constantly and the entrance to which was located across a bridge on the outskirts of the city of Acme Acres, the usual setting of Tiny Toon Adventures. Gogo and Wackyland were considered bizarre and nonsensical by even the lax standards of his cast, and the latter was usually explicitly avoided.
Like the rest of the Tiny Toon Adventures cast, Gogo was a student at Acme Looniversity, where he also served as a hall monitor and performed other duties, such as acting as a cuckoo bird for the Looniversity's various clocks.
According to series writer Paul Dini, Gogo is the only member of the Tiny Toon Adventures cast who was a relative of one of the Looney Tunes characters; in this case, Gogo was the son of the original dodo from the 1938 Looney Tunes cartoon Porky in Wackyland.
Gogo occasionally signs off at the end of an episode with the phrase, "It's been surreal!"
