Carnival Ride Professor

A minor figure glimpsed running some kind of carnival ride attraction, dispensing pseudo-scientific patter with the exaggerated authority of a huckster in a lab coat. He exists to sell the ride's premise for a scene, all bluster and showmanship, gone as quickly as he appears.

John DiMaggio brings his gravelly, blustery comic timing to even the smallest walk-on, turning a few throwaway lines into a distinct little bit. It's the kind of blink-and-you'll-miss-it voice work that rewards rewatching Futurama's crowded background gags.
