Really? The unique voices gave the show personality...It might as well be dead.

Who is to say that the new voices won't either match up, or improve on the old ones? I know I'll miss "Good News Everyone!", but give it a chance before judging it.

Voices on a TV show can never really improve. It's like making Fry's hair brown, is it an improvement?

stop being so pessimistic. give it a chance before judging it. It's better than the show being canceled.

You obviously didn't read the other post of mine, either that or your obsessive brain blocked it out.
By the voices never being able to be improve, I mean, the voice is their voice, you can't improve someone's voice, it's part of their character, like Fry's orange hair.

just because it can't improve doesn't mean that the show can't survive. The show will draw new viewers who have never watched the old episodes and don't know the personality of the characters. I'm not saying that it will be better by any means, but at least it will still have the same storytelling, etc.

I'm sure after a week or two no one will really care about the change anymore. The do it with tons of television shows, but no one really notices later on.

Yeah they changed an entire actor for a character in one of my shows and at first I hated it, then it became normal and I didn't care anymore.

This is probably more like what happened when they found a new actor for Homer on The Simpsons. Everyone was outraged, but they got over it.

plus its not like they're gonna get people who sound nothing like the old actors.....hopefully.

Unless the voices COMPLETELY change, then we will be fine. And even if they do completely change, you'll get over it.
