He was cast opposite [[Bette Davis]] in ''[[Hello Mother, Goodbye!]]'', a 1973 television pilot aired by [[NBC]] but never picked up as a series. From 1970 to 1974, Mars guest starred in five episodes of ''[[Love, American Style]]'', playing various characters.<ref name=TVGuide></ref>
In 1977, Mars became a series regular on both the ''[[Sha Na Na (TV series)|Sha Na Na]]'' variety series and on [[Norman Lear]]'s talk show parody ''[[Fernwood 2-Night]]'' in the recurring role of eccentric William W.D. 'Bud' Prize, from the Fernwood Chamber of Commerce. He continued the role on the revamped ''[[America 2-Night]]'' in 1978. In 2001, Mars portrayed a comedic famous but washed-up photographer on ''[[Just Shoot Me]]''. Before his death, his final television roles were Otto, the German dude ranch owner on [[Fox Broadcasting Company|Fox]]'s ''[[Malcolm in the Middle]]'', an appearance on [[Disney Channel]]'s ''[[Hannah Montana]]'', and a reprise of his role as Grandpa Longneck in ''[[The Land Before Time (TV series)|The Land Before Time]]'' television series.<ref name=TVGuide></ref>
In 1969, Mars portrayed a marshal trying to raise a posse to pursue ''[[Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid]]'', only to have his address to the townsfolk hijacked by a friendly bicycle salesman. Mars frequently played characters with exaggerated accents. He portrayed [[Germans|German]] characters in ''[[The Producers (1967 film)|The Producers]]'' (1967) and ''[[Young Frankenstein]]'' (1974), and played a [[Croat]]ian musicologist, Hugh Simon, in ''[[What's Up, Doc?

He also appeared in the 1962 Broadway play ''[[The Affair (play)|The Affair]]''.{{citation needed|date=June 2015}}
In 1975, ABC/Dunhill released a comedy LP produced by [[Earl Doud]], ''Henry the First'', featuring Mars in a number of comedy bits as [[Henry Kissinger]], including a cover version of the [[Bachman–Turner Overdrive]] song, "[[Takin' Care of Business (song)|Takin' Care of Business]]".<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.allmusic.com/album/henry-the-first-mw0000856963|title = Henry the First - Kenneth Mars | Songs, Reviews, Credits | AllMusic| website=[[AllMusic]] }}</ref>
Mars cultivated a lengthy voice acting career, launching it by voicing several characters on ''[[Uncle Croc's Block]]''. He voiced the roles of [[Ariel (The Little Mermaid)|Ariel]]'s father [[King Triton]] in ''[[The Little Mermaid (1989 film)|The Little Mermaid]]'' and in the video games ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'' and ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]].''
He voiced Littlefoot's Grandpa Longneck in [[The Land Before Time|The ''Land Before Time'' series of films]] and the spin-off television series, and the villainous Professor Screweyes in ''[[We're Back! A Dinosaur's Story (film)|We're Back! A Dinosaur's Story]].'' He played some minor roles on the popular radio show, ''[[Adventures in Odyssey]]''. He played Sweet William in ''[[Fievel's American Tails]]'', which took place after ''[[An American Tail: Fievel Goes West]]''. He voiced characters on many animated television series, such as ''[[The Smurfs (1981 TV series)|The Smurfs]]'', ''[[The Biskitts]]'', ''[[A Pup Named Scooby-Doo]]'', ''[[TaleSpin]]'', and ''[[Animaniacs]]'', as well as video games such as ''[[Fallout (video game)|Fallout]]'' and ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]''.
In 2008, Mars retired from acting after being diagnosed with [[pancreatic cancer]] two years prior.<ref name="LA Times"/> His final performance was as Grandpa Longneck in the animated television series ''[[The Land Before Time (TV series)|The Land Before Time]]''.<ref name="LA Times"/>
==Personal life==
In 1977, Mars married Barbara Newborn. They had two daughters, Susannah and Rebecca. The marriage lasted until his death in 2011.<ref name="LA Times"/>
==Illness and death==
In 2006, Mars was diagnosed with [[pancreatic cancer]] that had already spread beyond his pancreas.<ref name="LA Times"/> His cancer made him so ill that he could not reprise his role as King Triton for ''[[The Little Mermaid: Ariel's Beginning]]'', so [[Jim Cummings]] took over the role. As well as being unable to voice Triton, he also could not voice Grandpa Longneck in ''[[The Land Before Time XIII: The Wisdom of Friends]]''. (Littlefoot's Grandpa does appear in the film, but has no lines.) He died on February 12, 2011, aged 75.<ref name="LA Times"/>

A Dinosaur's Story (film)|We're Back! A Dinosaur's Story]].'' He played some minor roles on the popular radio show, ''[[Adventures in Odyssey]]''.

==Personal life==
In 1977, Mars married Barbara Newborn. They had two daughters, Susannah and Rebecca. The marriage lasted until his death in 2011.<ref name="LA Times"/>
==Illness and death==
In 2007, Mars was diagnosed with [[pancreatic cancer]] that had already spread beyond his pancreas.<ref name="LA Times"/> His cancer made him so ill that he could not reprise his role as King Triton for ''[[The Little Mermaid: Ariel's Beginning]]'', so [[Jim Cummings]] took over the role. As well as being unable to voice Triton, he also could not voice Grandpa Longneck in ''[[The Land Before Time XIII: The Wisdom of Friends]]''. (Littlefoot's Grandpa does appear in the film, but has no lines.) He died on February 12, 2012, aged 75.<ref name="LA Times"/>
