First, Paul Walker, now Dannel Wells. Too many deaths are happening lately.
 "Magic can happen to you."

Danny Wells is also known as Charlie the Bartender from The Jeffersons. He also lent his voice in many other cartoons, such as Heathcliff, Arthur, Batman the Animated Series, and others.
One of the nice things about Well's role as Luigi is the cowardly personality he's portrayed as in the show. That side of Luigi is still used as a staple in the Mario games that's being made today. Especially Luigi's Mansion. |

I wish they had kept Mario's personality from the show too! Stupid "it's-a-me", ugh...

Hate to hear that. I liked his character a lot on the show. I wish they would have kept them for newer version of the show.
You love this signature.
