It might just be loyalty to the people involved - he might not be satisfied with the show's quality but he knows that he's almost irreplaceable and can't just abandon it.

Yup, that's why i find it weird actually. If he had been just the animal sounds guy throughout his career I wouldn't wonder, but the fact that he's such an established and esteemed voice actor makes it strange to me that they never made use of him that way.

I find Mirkin's obvious enthusiasm for the show very charming, but his commentaries are not very illuminating. Oakley and Weinstein are great on the other hand, it really shows that they had a specific vision of what they wanted the show to be.

He also apparently didn't get the joke if his problem was that people wouldn't know who Calhoun was.

I'm always surprised they never asked him to play any human characters. Same with Futurama, but at least he got to be Nibbler's talking voice too.

You gotta admit it's catchy.

She is implied to be quite pretty once she has her teeth fixed - she has no trouble attracting someone as shallow as Cormac Maclaggen, and has guys whistling at her while walking through London dressed up. But since Harry doesn't look at her that way, the narration doesn't mention it outright.

I think NATM is generally regarded as quite good, at least here on AVC.

That's why Michael Keaton had to take up a stage name. Apparently there already was some dude named Michael Douglas around.

That one started out as a completely unrelated project before they realized that it was so similar to Carrie that they might as well rewrite it into an actual sequel to a.) be able to cash in on the familar name and b.) avoid a plagiarism suit.

However, I just realized that all the previous likes we've given and received remain, they've just turned into upvotes. That's good!

There are two new comments above and three new below. THIS IS CONFUSING ME.

I enjoyed Tress MacNeille's voice so much more before they decided she should play every single recurring and one-time female character that appears on the show (and Futurama too).

Funny how long people have been doing The Rolling Stones are old jokes, considering their members are only now actually really old, and for decades they were just old for a rock band.

He wrote "Phoenix"!

There were several Gunsmoke TV movies after the end of the show, all with James Arness, the last one airing in 1994. So that's 39 years with Matt Dillon.

I wonder what it's like working on something like We Are Men. Sometimes
when you do a series everyone involved must be aware it'll get canceled
almost immediately, right? Tony Shaloub can't have signed on thinking
"Yup, settled for the next five years".

eta: Attenborough's been mentioned, sorry.

S4 has its weak points, but I really enjoyed the college setting as such and was sorry to see the show moving away from it again so quickly.

For both Buffy and Angel I'd call their respective second seasons the best, but the stretch from Smile Time to Not Fade Away is easily the best thing either show ever did.
