      "To many longtime or lifelong viewers, The Simpsons is not The        Simpsons without the original voice actors at the wheel. Like the        rest of the cast, Kavner is such an integral part of Marge that        replacing her could lose so much of the charm and heart that        endeared us to the character in the first place. Kavner’s been a        core part of The Simpsons since its days as a recurring segment        on The Tracey Ullman Show. After more than 35 years as Marge,        surely no one could replace her, let alone mimic her, right?        Without Kavner’s distinctive voice and her wonderful acting        range, would any other version of Marge work?              One potential reason for the hesitance is that, despite some        successes on other franchises, some of the show’s biggest fans        have seen for themselves the damage a major casting change        can do. One of the show’s most popular international dubs. The        Mexican-produced Latin American-Spanish dub of the show, Los        Simpson, recast nearly everyone, resulting in nearly two decades        of worsened quality.              American viewers tend to consider the first eight seasons as the        show’s gold, but Latin American viewers are more likely to        extend that period to Season 15. That’s because, when they think        of Los Simpson, they think of those first 15 seasons with the        original Homero, Humberto Vélez, in charge."              See:              https://www.thedailybeast.com/obsessed/the-reason-the-simpsons-f       ns-fear-new-voice-actors              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
