Les Lye, the legendary Candian comic actor and best known to most of you reading this blog as Quellor in “The Adventures of Teddy Ruxpin” passed away a couple of weeks ago at age 84. He was a very talented voice and on-screen actor and had more credits to his resume than can be mentioned [...]

The Voice Actors
May 5, 2009
What a great cast Teddy Ruxpin had, both in the Tv series and with the storybook series. I particularly am fond of Phil Baron and Will Ryan as Teddy and Grubby, respectively. The chemistry they had as the characters was probably enhanced by the real-life working relationship they had for several years before Teddy even began- [...]
One Last DVD
February 15, 2009
About two weeks ago MillCreek Entertainment released the entire series on DVD. Although there are unfortunately no special features, it’s nice to have the entire series available in one set, especially since a volume or two of the original 3 releases by MillCreek now seem to be out of print. Again, for all fans, I [...]
Happy New Year
January 8, 2009
I hope 2009 is a great year for us all, and that our personal and national problems begin to take a back seat during this trip around the sun. One thing to be thankful for right now is the continuing presence of Teddy.. it doesn’t look like he’s going away this time. At the [...]
Ten Years….
August 19, 2008
It’s been ten years this month since I started the website. When it began it was just two pages long and very, very simple. I started it on a lazy afternoon on summer vacation, fascinated by the internet (as I still am today) and worried that there wasn’t nearly enough fan support for TR yet [...]
Bravo
August 17, 2008
I just wanted to use this space to thank the people at Mill Creek Entertainment for doing such a fantastic job with the DVD releases. I know we are all a little disapointed that there were no special features (The Protect Yourself Segments would have only made sense to us old-school fans so I can’t blame [...]

Will Ryan
July 20, 2008
Although it doesn’t mention Teddy Ruxpin at all, here is an interview I found with Will Ryan, the very talented voice of Grubby. I’m quite envious of the webmaster who was lucky enough to get to talk with Mr. Ryan as talking with him/meeting him has always been a dream of mine.

The DVD’s
July 18, 2008
I’m very happy with The Adventures of Teddy Ruxpin releases from MillCreek. While I would have loved some special features, the company obviously knew we were going to buy these up regardless so I can’t blame them for not spending the extra money. The DVD packaging is bright and luckily quite easy to distinguish between [...]
The Mystery Unravels
July 16, 2008
Next week, Mill Creek Entertainment will release the final 25 episodes of The Adventures of Teddy Ruxpin… and when they do, the final mysteries in the series that I missed on my original 1987 recordings will be unraveled. This is a day I’ve been waiting for- for a heck of a long time. One of the [...]
