I know this news story is a few days old but I really haven't had the opportunity to talk about it, but here we go. Christine Cavanaugh is a woman that was part of a lot of our childhoods, she was the voice of Chuckie in Rugrats, Gosalyn from Darkwing Duck, Babe from Babe and Dexter from Dexter's Laboratory. It's always sad when someone whose work you admired passes away, but when it's someone from your childhood, that makes it all the worse. Some of my favourite shows as a kid were Dexter's Lab and Rugrats, and Chuckie was always my favourite. Admittedly I didn't grow up with Babe or Darkwing Duck, though Darkwing Duck is a show that i started watching the past year and I am loving it. Even though she retired in the mid-2000's and her roles were taken up by other people, she was the original, and a great talent who has made a name for herself. These characters have expanded more than just the generation of kids they were meant for and will live on as cartoon classics and so will she.
