EspañolWAKE, RATTLE, AND ROLL
'''Wake, Rattle, and Roll''' (retitled '''Jump, Rattle, and Roll''' when it aired on Disney Channel on weekday afternoons in 1991[1]) was a live-action/animated television show produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions and premiering in the fall of 1990.
The series was about a boy named Sam Baxter (R.J. Williams) and his robot D.E.C.K.S. (voiced by Rob Paulsen; built from old audio/video equipment and a Sony U-Matic videotape head; an acronym for 'D'igital 'E'lectronic 'C'assette-Headed 'K'inematic 'S'ystem) and their adventures in the basement, which has a time machine that can bring back historical figures.
The show's title was inspired by the song ''Shake, Rattle and Roll''.
After a short live-action skit, D.E.C.K.S. would turn on the television screen on his torso and display an animated short. There are two new Hanna-Barbera series made exclusively for this program.
The Monster Tails are a group of pets who live in a castle in Transylvania with their guardian Igor Jr. (Charlie Adler), the son of Igor (Iggy for short). Each of them had a similar personality to their masters, who are in Hollywood making movies. First, there's Frankenmutt (Frank Welker) who is Frankenstein's dog. He has incredible strength, organ-playing abilities and the brain of a genius, literally. Then there's Elsa (Jennifer Hale), the pet dog of the Bride of Frankenstein. Elsa has the brain of a parrot and a crush on Frankenmutt. Then there's Catula (Charlie Adler), Dracula's cat. Although Catula is arrogant, he's a master of magic and transformations, usually. Next, there's Mumfrey (Rob Paulsen with the vocal style of Woody Allen), the Mummy's dog, who was a constant insomniac. Next there's Dr. Veenie (Jonathan Winters), Dr. Jekyll's dog. Dr. Veenie's a brilliant scientist, but whenever he sneezes, he transforms into the superstrong but beserk Mr. Snyde, who's like Dr. Jekyll's alter ego Mr. Hyde. And last, there's Angel (Candi Milo), the pet goldfish of the Creature from the Black Lagoon. Angel's a ghost because she was eaten by a shark. Angel tends to shout at certain times.
This was the ''Wacky Races'' of the '90s, in which the racers drove monster trucks. Each vehicle had a different theme, specific to its drivers; e.g., Yogi & Boo Boo's truck looked like a giant picnic basket on wheels. Competitors (listed by vehicle number) included:
# Yogi & Boo Boo
# Huck & Snagglepuss
# Wally Gator & Magilla Gorilla
# Top Cat & Choo Choo
# Quick Draw McGraw & Baba Looey
# Pixie & Dixie
# Augie Doggie and Doggie Daddy
# Winsome Witch
And in truck number 00 were those famous evildoers (who won a race once in a while) Dick Dastardly & Muttley. Game show announcer and disk jockey Shadoe Stevens provided the narration.
Sam's grandpa (Avery Schreiber) is a brilliant inventor and is constantly supplying Sam and DECKS with sci-fi technology to add to their basement bedroom:
★ People Processor- a teleporter used to send or retrieve people to and from anywhere in the world. Sometimes, it could even send people through time.
★ Mondo-view- a supercomputer that was used for several reasons on the show.
★ Debbie Detector- a video monitor used by Sam and DECKS to communicate with Sam's older sister, Debbie (Teri Ivens), which lessens the amount of time Debbie spends in the basement.
After its single season on the air in syndication, ''Wake, Rattle, and Roll'' moved exclusively to Disney Channel[1]. Because of the fact that Disney Channel didn't have any commercial breaks at the time, Hanna-Barbera added a "secret cartoon" at the end of the last live-action segment, which was either a ''Cave Mouse and Dino'' short (Cave Mouse became a part of the opening credits for the Disney Channel episodes) or an ''Undercover Elephant'' short.
A Hanna-Barbera and Turner Entertainment production, produced in association with Four Point Entertainment, and distributed by Worldvision Enterprises.
