heh heh. what a great episode to work on! Trying to remember if this was the one where Bunck came to life as a half man/half dog, or if it was the one that cheech voiced Buck. 🤔
I think the one Richard Gurman is talking about is “Buck Can Do It” — Season 2, Episode 4
That’s the episode where Al tries to comfort Buck the night before he’s supposed to be neutered. Then Al falls asleep… and Buck suddenly becomes this bizarre half-man, half-dog character
The episodes where Cheech Marin voiced Buck were:
• “Look Who’s Barking” — Season 5
• “Change for a Buck” — Season 8
• “Assault and Batteries” — Season 8
(according to marriedwithchildren.fandom.com)
Oh man. I didn’t realize Cheech voiced THREE EPISODES. I thought he only did one. Does that mean that the GREAT Catherine O’Hara voiced three as well?!
As far as I could find out, Catherine O’Hara only voiced the sweet dog Lola in the episode “Look Who’s Barking”
Buck & Lola ❤️ (“Look Who’s Barking) soooo cute

Half man half dog Buck haunted my childhood more than anything Al ever did. And that’s saying something.
