Battle of the Planets (1978)
One of the most annoying characters in TV history
As a kid I loved this show, and I'm watching the re-runs now since I live in Japan and caught a few minutes of the original Japanese series on TV. The English version is downright horrible, despite veterans like Keye Luke and Casey Kasem doing voices.
The worst thing about the show, though, is the character "Keyop". Instead of hiring a child actor, they filled most of his lines with chirps and swirl type noises and then he barks out a quick short line. This becomes HIGHLY annoying, to the point that I mute the volume when he speaks. It's simply too irritating to listen. Fran Drescher speaking in a squeaky voice while a tiger sharpens its claws on a blackboard would be less annoying.
