I didn't mention Rufio because I fell victim to a urban legend that Dante Basco died somewhere around 2010. I wasn't aware of his legacy, since I have never seen Avatar: TLAB, or probably anything else he has been involved in.
Edit: looking it up, I have actually seen the entirety of The Boondocks, and Final Fantasy XIII. I didn't recognize Rufio as Jigme, or the Cocoon Inhabitants. Not surprising since both of those were like two decades after he played Rufio as a teenager. He would have been 15 or 16 when he played Rufio.
As far as Goofy Movie, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Touched by an Angel, and Johnny Bravo are concerned, while I saw all of those, I never heard him speak. I can only assume his adult register came into full force after he left the set of Hook.
I've literally can't remember seeing anything else he was in. I'm sure I saw some episodes of Highway to Heaven since I remember the show vaguely, and also The Wonder Years, but I wouldn't have known that he was going to be Rufio at that point as I am not clairvoyant.
