Post by: TR0N on January 02, 2014, 12:20:48 AM: Most know him for playing as Uncle Phil on fresh prince but he was the voice for shredder in the original tmnt cartoon.

The last thing I remember seeing him in was That 70s Show as Kelso's cop boss. 'Twas funny.

I just re-watched License To Drive this summer with my wife/daughter...it actually held up a lot better than I thought it would. I am not ashamed to admit that I like the damn film.

Avery's role was great—don't spill a drop of coffee!

I've been watching the old tmnt on DVD just yesterday with my daughter and she loves them. I didn't know he voiced shedder either.
