Who is Uncle Orville?
Uncle Orville is a humorous and quirky character featured in Walt Disney’s Carousel of Progress, an iconic attraction that celebrates the evolution of technology in everyday American life.
This audio-animatronic character appears during the early 20th-century scene, where he is reclining in a bathtub surrounded by a curtain. Known for his comedic line, “No privacy at all around this place!” Uncle Orville provides a lighthearted break in the attraction’s narrative of technological advancement.
Uncle Orville’s presence in the show serves to highlight the home life of the era, complete with the novelty of indoor plumbing and the lack of privacy as families adjusted to modern conveniences. His humorous grumbling makes him a fan-favorite and a memorable part of the Carousel of Progress.
The voice of Uncle Orville was performed by Mel Blanc, a legendary voice actor renowned for his work as the voices of many iconic Warner Bros. characters, including Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, and Porky Pig. Mel Blanc’s distinctive voice and comedic delivery added a unique charm to Uncle Orville, cementing his place as one of the many endearing characters in the Carousel of Progress.
