Henry Corden (né Cohen; January 6, 1920 – May 19, 2005) was a Canadian-born American actor, best known for assuming the voice of Fred Flintstone after the death of Alan Reed in 1977. [1]
Alan Reed was the original voice artist of Fred (minus the original short pilot where he was voiced by Daws Butler, who also voiced him on a 1973 record) [1] until Reed's death in 1977. [29] Henry Corden occasionally voiced Fred on records throughout the 1960s, [2] [30] [31] and also provided the singing voice for Fred in The Man Called Flintstone.
His final performance as Fred Flintstone was a cameo guest role on an episode of Scooby's All-Star Laff-A-Lympics. Afterwards, Fred would be voiced by Henry Corden (who had previously done voice work for Hanna-Barbera and bore a striking resemblance to Reed). Reed's other voice roles for Hanna-Barbera was Touché Turtle's sidekick, Dum Dum.
Henry Corden not only reprised Fred Flintstone's singing voice, but assumed his speaking voice as well (replacing Alan Reed, a part he would officially take over in 1977 after Reed's death). The character of Hedda Hatter was cut, her material combined with that of the Mad Hatter, and the latter was voiced by Daws Butler (replacing Harvey Korman ).
