This was a great cartoon that I forgot about! Was the narrator the same guy that did the narration on A Christmas Story?

Nope... that was Jean Shepherd, who wrote the screenplay and provided the narration for 'A Christmas Story'. Shepherd also has a cameo appearance in the department store scene, as the man who directs Ralphie and Randy to the end of the line.

The narrator for 'Underdog' was an actor named George S Irving. One of his most famous off-Broadway roles was a voice-over for 'The Year Without a Santa Claus', in which he played the embittered Heat Miser opposite Dick Shawn's Snow Miser. He did another voice-over as Gepetto in 'Pinocchio's Christmas', and also appeared in television commercials for White Owl cigars.

Now, aren't you glad you asked??

I didn't ask but that's what is great about this site! It does sound like the same narrator for both!
