Hopefully Julie
Kavner next. Her Marge voice is awful now

Is milhouse a meme?
>>
>>206061599
Half of the VAs still sound like shit. Obviously some stuff have it, but most (mainly marge) just sound old and busted.
They just need to train ai voices on the seasons from 5-20 or whatever, and use that instead. And re-train every season or two to keep up with advancing ai voice technology.

Milhouse was never a meme

What happened to voice actors having to be the gender or race of their character? Representation matters.

Harry Shearer is so old that he can't do Mr. Burns anymore. It's Yeardley Smith, Nancy Cartwright, and Hank Azaria holding it down now. Everyone else is ready to be put out to pasture.
Billy West ain't sounding too good now either, which really makes me sad.
>>
Nick Mullen does a better Homer Simpson than Dan Castellaneta does now.

They should fire the whole cast and use AI trained on their voices from the late 90's.

Is Mr. Burns just not in eps anymore or does it sound like shit like Marge?

It's the only way, really.

If I've learned anything from The Simpsons it's that voicing cartoon characters destroys your vocal cords harder than screamo. Kavner sounds like she's had a tracheostomy.
>>
>>206062176
Or just end the fucking show
>>
>>206063852
Yeah that's a better idea

So what happens? Milhouse, Jimbo and Rod and Todd just die?
>>
>>206063481
The latter. Watch a clip of the Oppenheimer episode on YT. It's not just bad, it's almost upsetting.
>>
>>206064236
That would be an interesting way of doing it.
They keep going, never introducing any new characters, when a VA dies in real life all their characters die too.
As the years go by we'll see fewer and fewer people in Springfield.

AI can probably write, voice and animate it at this point. Disney could pump out 1000 episodes a year.

I haven’t watched The Simpsons since the mid 90’s. I remember when I was a little kid and it came out at the same time as Cops and me and my friend Shawn would watch those shows religiously on his satellite TV and a few years later when Doom came out followed by Super Nintendo I only watched the show sporadically. Is it still good?
>>
>>206068348

Not really unless its a Treehouse of Horror episode.

The whole thing was lame, but the die "joke" was the nail in the coffin. Please put it to rest already.

Jesus Christ, this is awful though somehow still less objectionable than the replacements for Carl, Dr Hibbert and anyone black.

>>206068348
I’m the same as Bart should be, 45. I remember when it first came out than moved to Thursdays for some stupid reason before going back to Sunday. I had a Simpsons shirt which school made me wear inside out because was “offensive.” Now got trannies at school.

What the fuck. There's literally no reason not to just recast them when they sound this different from the characters. It doesn't even pass as a good impression if themselves.
>>
>>206071038
The actress who plays Marge always had a natural speaking voice that sounded like an old lady with emphysema since the beginning anyway so it’s not like she sounds that much different now

>>206061599
They should cancel the show now, it's had it's day and has earned its place in history. Get as much of the original cast back as possible for one final season then lights out.
>>
>>206061599
I noticed Trey Parker and Seth McFarlane are kinda sounding hoarse lately and like they can’t do some of the characters properly suddenly, I’m starting to think keeping cartoons on the air for 30-40 decades with the same actor was a mistake. Do popular cartoon shows just not end anymore? Why does south park, family guy and the simpsons need to air until the end of time?

I hope you realise how that doesn’t make sense.

Yes, it doesn't make sense, but if you listen to it, you'll hear what I mean. It's not even the same voice anymore.

>>206073549
> Why does south park, family guy and the simpsons need to air until the end of time?

No different than comic books. The characters don’t age out like live actors do. Add on you only record voices for maybe a couple of months. Easy paycheck for the most part.
>>
>>206073549
>Do popular cartoon shows just not end anymore?

Before the 90s there wasn't really the notion of a cartoon that was popular enough that it could just go on and on indefinitely. You have franchises like Looney Tunes and Mickey Mouse that are basically on and off, but nobody thinks twice about replacing the VAs. To his credit Mel Blanc was even voicing Looney Tunes right up to his death, but nobody though he was irreplaceable like they feel about Simpsons and the others.

Simpsons needs to break Sazae-san's Guinness record for longest-running cartoon series
>>
>>206064491
Smithers sounds terrible as well. Much deeper and weaker than his voice used to be. They really should have replaced the VAs with sound-alikes years ago if they insist on keeping the show alive. It's just sad watching that.
>>
>>206061599
Wait i thought kavner died years ago
>>
Does the Simpsons even make bank anymore? Like the TV show I mean. Their ratings seem to be cratering and I always assumed the merchandising and syndication would make a lot of money but the Simpsons VAs are on such high wages that they've had to skimp on the animation budget. I can't imagine advertisers clamouring for ad space on a cringe show that gets 1-1.3m viewers when there's shows out there getting 3-4m
>>
>>206064491
Jesus Christ that's bad, they both sound like different characters.
>>
>>206061599
Will they get a small boy to voice Sneedhouse now, since Dr. Chuckard is voiced accurately by a jiggaboo?
>>
>>206075879
It's still one of their more popular shows, really just older people who can't stop watching. Maybe a few hipsters who think that it's on a more intellectual level than Family Guy is.
>>
>>206061599
What they need is a new marge voice, cause it could breathe some life into the character
>>
>>206075879
This is what's wild to me. I'm sure merch still sells off the legacy alone, but I don't think new episodes have anything to do with that. They could just as easily save some money and just coast by on nothing but the legacy and maybe the occasional game or butterfingers commercial. It's truly crazy to me that such a cultural titan still continues to produce content yet anything made in the past two decades is COMPLETELY irrelevant. Like that anime episode a few years back is the only time I recall anyone in my life so much as mentioning a modern episode or gag. I don't think at any point in the last two decades I've ever heard anyone have a conversation about the latest Simpsons episode.
>>
>>206076104
>breathe some life into the character
Sorry. They attempted rescue-breaths and chest-pumps on the corpse of the Simpsons for 30 minutes, and unfortunately had to declare a time of death after seeing no signs of life.
