How many more cast members need to die before this show can finally end?
How many more cast members need to die before this show can finally end?
All of them
I get the feeling Marge is next...
None. They have enough voice clips to where they can do with the cast what South Park did with Chef.
its been said probably dan and/or nancy, because really, do YOU think they could carry the show with MARGE and fucking LISA?
>Marge and Apu die in the show
>Homer marries Manjula
I'm fine with that.
even getting down to shitty YTP era voice editing?
How many are dead now?
An actual main character VA death. Edna was a big loss but the show can still function without her. And now, when was the last time Martin had a notable role in an episode? He was only used for tiny gags.
Phil Hartman
Marcia Wallace
Doris Grau
Russi Taylor
That few? The show has been on for over 30 years, I expected at least 8 or 10 people
Look at Homer's face.
> Implying they will end the show over that
They have over 30 years of dialog, they will just use the archived voice clips and make it work from there
If either or both Bart and Homer's VAs die that could slow down production for like a week until they can get replaced.
Hate to be that guy, but bronies are already using AIs to keep their waifu’s voices alive once the show ends. It sucks at the moment, but The Simpsons has three times as many episodes as horse show.
RIP half of Bart’s class
Homer will never die
I was going to say this, Julie Kavner really sounds like she's ready to kick he bucket in recent seasons.
Dan Castellaneta, Nancy Cartwright, Hank Azaria, or Harry Shearer. But even then, Disney would probably try to keep it going.
I had no idea Martin had the same voice as Minnie Mouse but it makes perfect sense now
Remember when The Simpsons did a live call in session with Homer?

So what we post Chuck?
So what we post Sneed?
>I’m so tired
I'm predicting Harry Shearer's next.
And to rub salt in the wound, it'll probably be a year after Ned goes gay and marries someone else voiced by Shearer, just to add one last "Flanders' wife/husband is dead" joke. Try to guess which one, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised
based horsefuckers
The voice actors are probably cloned just in case.
This seems to be the first death of a Simpsons cast regular who voiced child characters.
Most other times, the characters are either killed off (Krabappel, Lionel Hutz) or never given a speaking role ever again (Troy McClure). I know they replaced Lunchlady Doris with Tress MacNeille, but could they successfully replace practically of Bart’s class?
formerly alive
Martin has had a few different voice actors, and aside from him there's only Uter (don't know if he's even still in the show?) and the twins that Taylor voiced. I think they definitely could find a new voice actor for them but not sure what their policy is here, in this situation usually they don't replace them out of respect for the VA aka PR.
There exists technology to imitate voices just based on a few samples. It's still rough, but you know it will improve. This is how voice acting will evolve in the future and voice actors are paid nothing.
it's more than just rough
anyway yeah that'll put me out of a job, but i'll also be able to make all the voiced funny skits and shit i want, without having to get girls to say the lines I want them to say, so...
basically I think/hope they will just ignore school from here.
>Lisa's VA dies
>She has non-speaking appearances for the rest of the show or she's written out of the show
I'm okay with this
What sucks?
>Two of the voice actors, and one of the producers, for this scene are now dead. And the show’s still going
This just gets more and more fucked up.
m.youtube.com
Tress MacNeille is the same age as Julie Kavner.
Manjula may kick the bucket first. (Technically, we've already lost a Manjula because Jan Hooks died.)
god that sucks ass
How?
>dont blame me i voted for kodos
jesus fucking christ.
Yeardely Smith. Her voice is too distinct and the show runners love Lisa Too Much to ever besmirch her character with a sound alike.
Smithers?
I can't wait for the next episode they write to be about a school shooting.
>but i'll also be able to make all the voiced funny skits and shit i want, without having to get girls to say the lines I want them to say
Isn't that how Zone's flash "games" worked? Or am I giving them too much credit?
Here's to you, Marge, Homer, and Bart
Rest forever here in our hearts
no one is irreplaceable, if any of the main cast dies they'll find soundalikes. if the show ever ends, it will not be from actors dying. you know this.
Considering how many of Bart's classmates she voiced, I wouldn't be surprised if THIS is finally what causes Bart to move up to the 5th grade.
New class, new teacher, new classmates.
Lionel Hutz isn't dead, he just never reappeared again.
>
Honestly? That's based af
Have they ever added new recurring characters ?
That gay guy
may I see it?
smithers?
>Bart sitting in the middle of a class of modern Simpsons designs
At this point it would be worth it just to see how hilariously out of place he'd look.
Gil Gunderson
Cookie Kwan
Lindsay Naegle
The Yes guy
Apu's children
Selma's baby
Only in a technical sense. They were introduced in the period between Season 9 and Season 15. They're up to like, Season 30 now. Has any recurring character been introduced in the past 15 seasons?
Homer's Fry cooker
sneed lol
SNEED IN THE HOUSE TONIGHT!!!!
Julio
Comic Book Guy’s wife
Eh, Nancy could probably take over. Wasn’t she reading for Lisa anyway when she auditioned, or was it the other way around?
That's a recurring character?
There's Superintendent Chalmers' daughter, she was introduced in Season 20 and has appeared in quite a few episodes since
Yeardley auditioned for the role of Bart, but she was told her voice was too high
Nancy auditioned for the role of Lisa, but she thought Bart was a more interesting character
Hiring 10 people to search and edit voices from previous clips would still be way cheaper than any of the main cast's voices salaries
We're just selling seeds
Doesn't who will feed
Isn't there tech available to simply generate voices?
I think it would sound very robotic
i believe it'll end when Dan kicks the bucket
> Ned goes gay
They're doing what?
They’ll never stop.
