William "Bill" T. Woodson (born July 16, 1917) is an American voice artist. He has a small onscreen appearance in the 50s scifi film "The Beast From 20,000 Fathoms" as a newscaster. He can be heard in the opening narrative of the 1970s television series "The Odd Couple", explaining how it is that Felix and Oscar ending up rooming together. He had done some of the voice-over work on a late 1960s series called "The Invaders". Woodson's legacy will be his long association with the "Superfriends" series where he served as narrator and sometimes voice-actor. Woodson had taken over the role of narrator from face-actor Ted Knight. Woodson narrated each subsequent Superfriends episode upon taking over from Ted Knight...narrating well over 100 episodes, including the 7 minute short subject episodes produced during 1980 through 1983. Perhaps his most memorable line from the series was the often-used phrase that accompanied a transition to scenes at the Superfriends' headquarters: "Meanwhile, at the Hall of Justice..."

In recent years, Woodson, a California resident, has lent his serious-sounding voice to a series of humorous commercials promoting the Minnesota Twins. The ads have had titles like "The Minnesota Twins - Get to Know 'Em"; "Every Fan Counts"; and "This is Twins Territory".
