The Wonder Years Episode 2x1 promo shot

Who was the voice of adult Kevin on "The Wonder Years"?

Last updated: January 31, 2026

If you watched TV in the late '80s, there's no way you could forget the voice behind "The Wonder Years." The warmth it brought to each episode made the show feel less like a sitcom and more like flipping through someone else's memories. While Fred Savage nailed the young Kevin Arnold, someone a little older needed to be the one looking back on first loves, family dinners, and summers that seemed to last forever. Who voiced adult Kevin on "The Wonder Years"?

Correct Answer: Daniel Stern

Getting to play adult Kevin was probably one of the only times Daniel Stern got to work with a child actor without getting a paint can to the face. The "Home Alone" bandit voiced adult Kevin Arnold for all 115 episodes of "The Wonder Years" but went uncredited the entire time. Stern was fired right before the Super Bowl premiere for casually mentioning he might audition for a movie in Africa, then rehired days later with a raise when producers realized nobody else sounded right. And in the series finale, when a voice asks "Hey Dad, want to play catch?" that's Stern's real-life son Henry.
