Edward G. Robinson character based on Robinson's tough-guy image was The Frog (Chauncey "Flat Face" Frog) from the cartoon series "Courageous Cat and Minute Mouse". The voice of B.B. Eyes in "The Dick Tracy Show" was based on Robinson, with Mel Blanc and Jerry Hausner sharing voicing duties. The animated series "Wacky Races"' character 'Clyde' from the Ant Hill Mob was based on Robinson's Little Caesar persona. In the 1989 animated series "C.O.P.S." the mastermind villain Brandon "Big Boss" Babel's voice sounded just like Edward G. Robinson when he would talk to his gangsters. Then years later voice actor Hank Azaria has noted
Edward G. Robinson that the voice of "Simpsons" character police chief Clancy Wiggum is an impression of Robinson. This has been explicitly joked about in episodes of the show. In "The Day the Violence Died" (1996), a character states that Chief Wiggum is clearly based on Robinson. In 2008's "Treehouse of Horror XIX", Wiggum and Robinson's ghost each accuse the other of being rip-offs. Another caricature of Robinson appears in two episodes of "" season two, in the person of Lt. Tan Divo . Robinson was played by Michael Stuhlbarg in the 2015 film "Trumbo". https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0660863/mediaviewer/rm2112237824 Edward G. Robinson Edward G. Robinson (born
