Welcome back to another edition of "Hey, It's That Voice!" Last week, we looked at the first voice of Mr. Harold Smiley, Sinbad. Today, we will look at the second and current voice of the Beach City Funland worker.
Mr. Smiley is overworked. The poor soul works himself tireless all over Funland. I mean, he did say he hasn't seen a bed in six days. Maybe it's much easier than being an actor/comedian/R&B singer? But this workaholic has a new voice since the second season. Who could it be? Why, that would be Colton Dunn!

While attending high school, Dunn started partaking in theater and even joined an improve comedy group. In 1998, Dunn moved to New York City where he worked for Late Night with Conan O'Brien.
