Voice of
Dr. Regis Blackgaard,
Ronald Edwin Blackgaard
Earl Boen voices Dr. Regis Blackgaard
and his twin brother, Edwin Blackgaard, on Adventures
in Odyssey. He is perhaps best known as psychiatrist
Dr. Silberman in the Terminator series. Boen
reprised the role in both Terminator 2: Judgment Day,
in which Silberman works at a mental institute where
Sarah Connor (Linda Hamilton) is held, and Terminator
3: Rise of the Machines, where he appears in a
single scene as he tries to console Kate Brewster
(Claire Danes) before fleeing in panic at the sight of
the Terminator. He is the only actor besides Arnold
Schwarzenegger to appear in all three films, and he is
the only one to portray the same character. Boen is also
known to many TV viewers as the Harper family's pastor,
Reverend Lloyd Meechum on the 1980s sitcom Mama's
Family. His character was featured in several of the
most memorable episodes (on both the network and
syndicated versions). He also appeared as a clergyman in
episodes of The Golden Girls, The Golden
Palace, The Wonder Years, Boy Meets World
and Three's Company. Other films in which he
appeared include The Man with Two Brains (1983),
Alien Nation (1988), Naked Gun 33⅓: The
Final Insult (1994), and Nutty Professor II: The
Klumps (2000). Boen commonly plays doctors in movie
and television roles. Boen retired from screen acting,
but continues his prolific work as a voice actor in
radio, television cartoons and computer and video games.
