Del Moore (14 May 1916 – 30 August 1970) was an American comedian, a television and movie actor, and a radio announcer.
In 1952, he appeared in the first of several So You Want To ... Warner Bros. comedy shorts with George O'Hanlon. He co-starred in the early television comedy Life with Elizabeth (1953–55) with Betty White; he also was doing a morning radio spot at KMPC radio. He appeared in many episodes of Dragnet and Adam-12, and was a regular in the series Bachelor Father, playing Cal Mitchell. For several years in the late 1950s, he hosted a daily children's program opposite Willy the Wolf, a muppet-like adult size character, as well as hosting the Late Late Show on KTTV Channel 11 in Los Angeles.
Moore played supporting roles in several Jerry Lewis films, including The Big Mouth and The Patsy. He made his feature film debut in Lewis' Cinderfella in 1960 and was the university president in 1963's The Nutty Professor. He was also in the 1967 teen film Catalina Caper, which later appeared as an "experiment" in a 1990 episode of Mystery Science Theater 3000.
