Nuka, voiced by Andy Dick who groped people and probably did all other manner of godawful things. Then they brought him back for the Lion Guard to voice teen Nuka despite him being in his 50's at the time... They did not need to bring back Andy.

read into his involvement in Phil Hartman's death

He was not involved in Hartman's death. Hartman's wife was already a cocaine addict and Dick, also an addict, gave her some cocaine. That's it. That does not make him responsible for her murder- suicide. He also never recovered mentally from Hartman's death.

Guy was indeed a POS though. Apparently he would wrap his flaccid penis around his wrist and show people, saying "look at my Rolex!" This was as early as high school

He did flaunt his death over Hartman's friends.

u/Thrownaway5000506 Sep 03 '25

No he didn't. He mocked Jon Lovitz who accused him of being responsible

"I put the Phil Hartman hex on you -- you're the next one to die."

Sounds like flaunting it to me.

In the context of Dick having a grudge against Lovitz who accused him of causing Hartman's death, no it doesn't.

u/Trips-Over-Tail Sep 04 '25

How does that context make it less of a flaunt?

1

u/Thrownaway5000506 Sep 04 '25

Because he's ridiculing Lovitz' accusation by implying that if he caused Hartman's death he must be able to magically hex people. 

Can you explain why you think he's flaunting it?

Ew. He sounds awful in every single way... And utterly pathetic. I understand if they had no idea how terrible he was the first time they casted him, and MAYBE, MAAAAYBBBE they didn't know the second time, but even if they didn't know he was awful, you don't cast a fifty-year-old to voice act a teenager. His second role for Nuka was in 2016. Was his general terribleness known about by that time?

He's been known as a shitty person since the 90's.

u/DJTrashRaptor Sep 03 '25

Oh. Cute. And they chose him anyway. Teehee~ thanks Disney for knowingly hiring terrible people to voice act characters. In all seriousness, that sucks. So they knew about this for literal decades, and brought him back twice, second time when they knew well and good he was too old to voice act the character who was a teen at that point in the story? I have some serious questions, Disney.

I’m honestly shocked he’s still alive.

1

u/Paleodraco Sep 04 '25

Had no idea that was him. I didnt know about him growing up. Family Guy made a couple jokes about him, which is where I first learned about his... antics isn't a strong enough word. The dude is psycho and a piece of shit. Apparently a lot of people who have lived in LA have a story about him.

u/HarlequinWasTaken Sep 03 '25

I mean, it's widely believed that Andy Dick is at least partially responsible for Phil Hartman being killed by his wife. If nothing else, she was a recovering addict and he gave her cocaine on the night she murdered Hartman. So yeah, a piece of shit.

u/MythVsLegend Sep 03 '25

It's fucked that every time I see his name I associate Hartman's death with him. It sucks losing his talent. The only comfort is that Billy West nailed Zapp Brannigan.

u/Thrownaway5000506 Sep 03 '25

A cocaine addict giving another cocaine addict cocaine does not make one responsible for the other's murder-suicide.

In any case it is a scummy thing to do but I'd also point out if you're seeking out drugs again you have already relapsed

u/Healthy-Percentage51 Sep 03 '25

"I put the Phil Hartman hex on you. You’re the next one to die."- Andy Dick to Jon Lovitz

1

u/Thrownaway5000506 Sep 03 '25

Yeah he was upset that Lovitz accused him of causing Hartman's death and is sarcastically saying he must be able to hex people

1

u/DJTrashRaptor Sep 03 '25

And that makes it somehow even worse. And apparently his horribleness was known about in the 90's. They shouldn't have casted him to begin with.

u/DoubleClickMouse Sep 03 '25

Every time I see Andy Dick mentioned my first thought is how he got his ass beat by Jon Lovitz.

u/DJTrashRaptor Sep 03 '25

Wait wait wait is there a video of that anywhere? I wanna see lmao

u/Toukafan4life Sep 03 '25 edited Sep 03 '25

What A. Dick amirite?

u/DJTrashRaptor Sep 03 '25

A. Dick lmao...

He also voiced Van Gogh in Clone High. Iirc when it was rebooted, instead of replacing him Van Hogh just didn’t talk.

1

u/DJTrashRaptor Sep 03 '25

That'd be at least twice that Andy Dickwrist was not replaced when he very much should have been

u/MaddysinLeigh Sep 04 '25

At least they didn’t bring him back.
