Yeah, you bet! Well... maybe "fan" is a slightly strong word, but I do enjoy it. You're right, the three main characters are great. Tara Strong voices some super characters (in this case Timmy Turner, for anyone who doesn't know). Timmy's dad makes me laugh, and I think Chester and AJ are cute.

Hahaha... yeah. And she provides the voice for the guy to the left of all my posts here. Dil Pickles in the wrong cartoon - "All Grown Up" is good but he's way out of its league. If he was in EGB, that would really be something!

Count me in as a positive. I'm not a die-hard fan but I enjoy watching it whenever I can catch on the telly. The characters are very well-conceived.
As for Tara Strong, I think she might actually be the most talented female VA working right now. Except maybe Tress MacNeille. She's a tough one to beat.

Kath is great. Although there are many people round these parts who will beg to differ. ;D June Foray's still alive, isn't she? I think she also did some roles in RGB. She's played Ray's Aunt Lois, Mrs. Rogers, Mrs. Faversham, the Mayor's wife in "The Scaring of the Green", and I think she may also have been Kestrel in "If I Were A Witch Man". God, I'm totally obsessed with voice actors these days.

Kath Soucie's ok, although most of her characters' voices are exactly the same. Seems to me they either sound like Phil or Lil, gender determining - although she was sublime in "Hey Arnold!". I don't think Fritz liked her Janine in RGB, but maybe I'm remembering what he told me wrong.

I don't think Fritz liked her Janine in RGB, but maybe I'm remembering what he told me wrong. She was a terrible Janine...but I also know it wasn't entirely her fault. She was doing exactly what she was hired for: to be a bland Mommy Figure. When given better material she did better: witness JMS's "Janine You've Changed" or any of the other shows she's been in.

Fritz is right, almost-ish..yeah. Although I must say I'm easier on Kath's Janine voice than others because to me Laura Summer's voice was occasionally annoying. Mainly because to me the voice sounded 'strained' and not natural, unlike the guy's voices which were really well done.
On the male side of things, Maurice LaMarche is still going strong. I'm currently watching Season 2 of Futurama on DVD, and what can I say, the guy's amazing. I also noticed Frank Welker's voice on one episode, as the fearful tones of a robot who gets shot up by the LaMarche-voiced Donbot. *http://www.gotfuturama.com/Multimedia/EpisodeSounds/2ACV13/ - it's the seventh down.* Isn't it crazy how these guys get around?
