    Exactly, that's to ensure that the character's voice does not change if the show lasts for a long time. Imagine had a nine year old boy started doing the voice of Timmy Turner, that kid would be 24 now. Instead, he's voiced by grownup Tara Strong, who, after having sat about ten feet from her for a glorious hour at a

    He gets extra points for being able to draw with both hands simultaneously. So if you've only heard his work it's understandable if you feel underwhelmed.

    Still a distant second in SNL family lineage to Julia Louis-Dreyfus. She's reported to be worth in the neighborhood of $3bil from her family connection to the Dreyfus Group financial corporation.

    The reason Disney does it that way is because many of the voice actors they use are stars in their own right, so scheduling would be a bitch. Weird Al tours and has other projects, the other two leads on MML star in live-action Disney shows, and so on. It's easier when the voices are done by actors who specialize in

    It probably would be fun to watch the recording sessions, except Disney rarely does group recording sessions. They tend to record each actor individually and edit it all together afterward. Hell, it was practically required with P&F since the actor who voiced Ferb never left England.

    Everything's better with Perry.

    "Phineas is yelling at Candace again. It must be a special episode."

    If you want to see the Undergrounders, look for the episode XD posted on YouTube. It's the second half of that.

    I enjoyed the ultra-meta Groundhog Day aspect of the finale. For a show that prided itself on being formulaic and repetitive, to literally repeat a single day over and over in a single episode took it to the next level.

    It's even funnier when applied to a word guessing game! Seriously, has anyone ever considered that when you fail to guess a word when playing hangman, the guy dies? In retrospect, that just might be the most violent game ever played.

    I think the one thing we've yet to see on MML is the emotional component. Sure, P&F had all the brilliant and absurd comedy, but at its core was the emotional bond between siblings: Candace realized she wanted to bust her brothers to protect them from themselves, not as any kind of self-aggrandizement need. Then

    Sitting idly by in case MML fails and Disnet decides to ressurect "The OWCA Files." To which I ask, why can't we have both?

    Due to football most likely.

    Yeah, just like Marvel Studios movies, they've earned enough goodwill that even had their new show been titled "Watching Paint Dry" I'd still stick around for at least five episodes.

    I saw it spelled "Diogee" in the closed captioning. And of course, he was voiced by Dee Bradley Baker who did the sounds for Perry the Platypus.

    Oh, come on, the repetition was intentional. It's how my kids learned the meaning of the word "trope." Plus it seemed after a while that they were putting stuff in the scripts just for the people who run tvtropes.com.

    My kids started watching P&F from the premiere and now even with my daughter away at college and my son a high school senior, I'll still watch the reruns without them. But nothing made me feel that I'd done a good job as a father as when I got home from dropping my daughter off at college, first day of freshman year

    Damn, Amy Wong was on Futurama, duh. It's insomnia night in the Elf house. Well, it's actually a hollow tree…

    (Aisha Tyler plays Lana Kaine on Archer. Lauren Tom, also on Friends, played Amy Wong on Archer. And lots of love for both. OK, maybe lust…)

    "You can be my henchman!"
