I knew it...Kenny was pretty close!

 

Hint:

The cartoon q was Donald Duck :P

 

Thanks! I never heard that one. Why?

 

I knew he loved Roger Ramjet. At the beginning of Witch Hunt, all of the yelling you hear? That's mostly Alex yelling out quotes from Roger Ramjet, just mixed to sound angry. :)
