Favorite Voice Actor (s)
 

It doesn't matter if they are for videogames, cartoons, animes, etc. Just express who you think out there does a good job in voice acting.

Johnny Yong Bosch-If there's anything I like about him, I like the fact that he does a good job for Ichigo for Bleach, and in some animes like Naruto.

Janice Kawaye-When she speaks, she has a voice that can be range from child-like to mature, and I think she does a good job in balancing them, as well as being fluent in Japanese. Though, I always wonder why she hasn't try out anime yet...

Tony Jay-The late Tony Jay has that tone that is very suited for serious villains, including Shere Khan from Tailspin and Megabyte from Reboot, and yet, I which I could have hear more from him.

James Earl Jones-Perhaps well-known for the voice of Darth Vader in the Star Wars films, his voice can have a sinister tone in them, yet, he can also range to benevolence as well, which was also use when he did Mufasa in the Lion King. In general, he deserves more credit than he should have.

The multi-talented Grey Delisle, who has voiced both of my favorite cartoon ladies and done a host of other characters over the last few years. :frankiesmile:

The Foster's cast is really the only cast of voice actors I'm familiar with right now. I remember a few years ago taking note of who did the voices of my favorite cartoon characters in other cartoons, but they didn't stick to my brain like the Foster's gang have. :bloogrin:

Yes, Grey is SOOO talented. And she's one busy lady! What, with a new baby and all, and yet she's doing....*counting*.... at least five cartoons all at the same time. And she sings too! Wow, I really admire her. She's got to be one of my favorites as well. I watch..er..hear her in Billy and Mandy, Curious George, and sometimes Fairly Odd Parents. She's amazing. :-*

Tom Kenny is another really talented voice actor who's in a number of cartoons at the same time (although he does't have a new baby, and as far as I know, doesn't sing). But he can do so many things with his voice. I like him in Camp Lazlo as Lumpus and Slinkman. He's awesome. :-/

I've mentioned elsewhere I'm a big fan of Sean's. I liked him in 13 Going on 30 even before I knew he was the same guy who did Mac's voice. I remember how excited I was when I found that out. Most of his voice acting so far in in video games, though, and as I've also mentioned elsewhere, I'm not really into the whole game scene (nothing against them, I just never got into them). So not familiar with him there. But I've seen a number of his guest appearances in TV shows and a few movies, and he's growing into a great actor. :)

Candi's also extremely talented, and has done a LOT of stuff. She started out singing for clubs and even had a show on the Disney Cruise ship. And she has a knack for manipulating her voice to sound like machinery or something, not just living humans/animals/imaginary friends. I suppose it's just unfortunate that she hasn't done the voice for any of my favorite characters yet, so I haven't looked into her as much as I've done the others. ;)

I'm not that familiar with Keith or Phil because there's not much out there about them, although I definately think they're both awesome in Foster's. I know Keith has done some voice work for video games, and Phil was on MADtv for a while. But I didn't watch MAD much (was more of an SNL fan, I suppose), and again, I'm not familiar really with any VGs. And poor Tom Kane, I don't think very many people even know who he is. But I sure know he does a great Herriman. :herriman:

Grey Delisle. She's very talented and does the voices to some of my favourite characters. My favourite voices from her are Frankie from Foster's and Lor from The Weekenders. :frankiesmile:

and

Tara Strong. She is extremly talented. She can put on really good voices for pretty much any kind of character. My favourite voices from her are Raven from Teen Titans and Terrence for Foster's. :terrsmile:

As well as Grey Delisle (not only as Frankie but as Mandy), here are my favourites:

Tara Strong - A very talanted voice actor, who has voiced great characters for great cartoons (including Ben 10, Teen Titans and Beetlejuice). My favourite from her is Raven from Teen Titans. She really brought out the creepyness (no offence to Raven :frankiesmile:) and even sometimes made it funny without becoming funny. An example of that is the first episode when Starfire offers her Pudding of Saddness to Raven, to which she replies: 'My mind is never troubled. People come, people go. It's pointless to be upset about Cyborg.' The computer behind her breaks, Starfire looks shocked and Raven just goes...

'What?'

Seth MacFarlane - Another talanted guy who really shows it on his show Family Guy. He makes his charaters that he does really funny, and shows that it's sometimes the way that you say something that makes it funny.

I'm also a fan of his sister, Rachel MacFarlane. Being a fan of the 1/362 pairing on Codename: Kids Next Door and having seen Operation IT, she made the character of Rachel (aka Numbuh 362) what she is today.

Mark Hamill-Probably best known for as the heroic Luke Skywalker of Star Wars fame, he also does a great job as a voice actor as well, mostly doing villainous roles, including Joker for BTAS, Ozai in Avatar and the Skeleton King in Super Robot Monkey Team Hyper Force Go!

David Hayter-In many ways, David Hayter, who is a skilled script writer, also has a gruff but heroic voice, similar to Wolverine, and I like the fact that he does the english voice for Snake for the MGS series, including the upcoming fourth and final game, Guns of the Patriots.

Phil Lamarr-Until I watch shows like Static Shock, Foster's and Samurai Jack, I knew little of Lamarr until I watch these shows. It was very surprising that he could lend his voice to just any character, regardless of origin, but he makes them more interesting depending on the kind of character he is.

Grey Delisle-Like everyone here, I also appreciate Delisle for tackling many voice acting roles, from being the ruthless Azula from Avatar to sweet Frankie from Foster's as well.

Oh man there are just too many for me to list. I'll start by saying that the Fosters crew are all on the list. But I'll do a quick list of my faves.

In no particular order...

-Grey Delisle
-Phil Lamar
-Tara Strong
-Scott McNeil
-Jennifer Hale
-Monica Storie
-David Kaye
-Peter Cullen
-Frank Welker

And there are many, many more. I'll try and get into detail later.

I must add the late Mel Blanc; he was da man! He's definitely on top of my list. He's easily my first favorite voice-over actor. I've also enjoyed hearing the works from Tom Kenny, Steven Blum, Grey DeLisle, Scott McNeil, Tara Strong, and many others.

Here are my favorite voice actors:

Tara Strong - I like how she voiced Ben Tennyson and Upgrade in Ben 10 and Timmy Turner in The Fairly Oddparents. She done many voice acting for over the years.

Debi Derryberry - She voiced many good cartoon characters like Zatch Bell and Jimmy Neutron. She also voiced Coco Bandicoot from some of the "Crash Bandicoot" games.

Grey DeLisie - She voiced many female cartoon characters: Frankie Foster, Mandy, Sam Manson, Vicky, and many more

Keith Ferguson - I always liked his voice for Bloo.

Lex Lang - The only character I know he voices is Dr. Neo Cortex from "Crash Twinsanity", "Crash Tag Team Racing", and the upcoming Crash game "Crash of the Titans", yet he does get into characters with the evil scientist.

Clancy Brown - He's also one of my favorites. He voices my favorite characters: Mr. Krabs from "SpongeBob SquarePants", Dr. Neo Cortex and Uka Uka from the Crash games, "Crash 2" to "Crash Nitro Cart".

Tom Kenny - I certainly like his voice acting for SpongeBob SquarePants. I like how he gets into character with SpongeBob.

My favorite voice actors/actresses are, in no particular order:
Grey Delisle, Phil Lamar, Charlie Adler, David Ogden-Stiers, Kevin Michael-Richardson, James Woods, Jason Lee, Steve Buscemi and that faithful Pixar stand-by, John Ratzenberger.

Oh, I remember a voice actor who's NOT in Foster's. *Hooray for me!*

Dom Delouise! He's so funny! Even in person (I remember seeing him at some award show a number of years ago). I don't know of any shows he's been in off hand, but he's been in a number of animated movies.

uh...the only one i can name is Grey.

Amazing country singer, BTW. rips your heart out and strings the slide guitar with it.

i love pedal steel sooooo much.

But, you guuuyyyyysss......

Tom Kenney is my absolute favourite voice actor! Eduardo, Spongebob, Rai, as well as about a million "additional voices". He rocks!

Also, I am a fan of Grey, but she has enough fans here already, so I'll leave it at that...

Ooh! And Hank Azaria, who does a million voices from The Simpsons, including, Cheif Wiggum, Apu, Snake, Lou, and Proffessor Frink! Muhey!

I'd be disappointed in myself if I didn't mention Stephen Colbert. He makes every role he plays awesome! Phil Ken Sebben being one of my favorites.:D I'm so looking forward to his appearance in the 19th season of The Simpsons!

Let's not forget about the late Phil Hartman. He was a great addition for the Simpsons series, and made some memorable characters, including Lionel Hutz and Troy McClure, and it's a shame his voice would never be heard again.

Definitely! But at least Billy West does his best to capture his feel as Zap Branigin.:D

Actually Billy West has admitted to doing a more exaggerated Bill Shatner impression as not to tread on the territory of the late great Phil Hartman.

Really? I always thought he had more of a Hartman feel to him. Or in the first couple seasons of Futurama, at least. Thanks for the info Monk.:D

I have two fave voice overs, of course my fave is Grey DeLisle (who pretty much everyone mentioned) and my second is Richard Steven Horvitz! He stole my heart with Zim (Invader Zim), Razputin Aquato (Psychonauts), and Daggett (Angry Beavers) :D

Don't forget that Horvitz also provided the voice for Billy in The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy as well.

I can't believe there is no love for Kevin Conroy. This man IS Batman. There has never been another actor, living or dead, live-action or animated, who has portrayed Batman as well as him. He makes you believe that when he gets out of the booth he goes out and beats up crooks at night. The DCAU wouldn't have been the same without him.

Your absolutely right. I can't believe I never thought about him until now. :wiltshock:

Which now reminds me of some of the best voice actors for the DCAU:

Tim Daly-If's there anything I like about him, its that Tim was able to capture the spirit of the Man of Steel, portraying the selfless and heroic hero that he is from the DC comic books.

Clancy Brown-He does a better job with the portrayal of Superman's nemesis, Lex Luthor, though he has lend his voice for other animated villains as well, including Glorft from Megas XLR.

Oh I know XD I just don't watch that much (especially because Teletoon yanked it for the season!)

Phil's done alot of stuff.
Green Lantern / John Stewart (Justice League and Justice League Unlimited)
Steel (John Henry Irons) (Justice League Unlimited)
Static / Virgil Hawkins (Static Shock)
Ozzy (Ozzy & Drix)
Maxie Zeus (The Batman)
Marcus Conner (The Life and Times of Juniper Lee)
Hermes Conrad on Futurama
Title character of Samurai Jack
Carver (The Weekenders)
Black Vulcan (Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law)
Poop Dogg, The Letter M, Shnooky (Invader Zim)
Ollie Williams the Blaccuweather Forecaster and other various voices on Family Guy
Hector Con Carne (Evil Con Carne)
Wilt, Jackie Khones, additional voices (Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends)
Virgil "Bull" Sharkwowski (My Gym Partner's a Monkey)
Dracula, Judge Roy Spleen, Irwin's Dad, Irwin's Grandmama, additional voices (The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy)
Various voices on Robot Chicken
Philly Phil (Class of 3000)
The Earth King (Avatar: The Last Airbender)
Afro (teen) (Afro Samurai)

My favorite is Rickard Horvitz. So funny. Especally as Ziiiiiiiiiiiim.

I like Grey Delisle, phil Lamaar, Tom Kenny, Carlos Alazraqui, Hynden Walch
And Last but not least Tara Strong.

He's hilarious as Billy. He also does the voice of Grey Matter on Ben 10!

Ah! I can't beleive I forgot Horvitz! My brain weeps....

Rino Romano-I know that he's not Kevin Conroy, but overtime, Rino proves that he can do a good job portraying the role of the Dark Knight in The Batman. On a side note, he did a fine job when he did Spider Man in the 90's version of the Web Slinger.

Kevin Michael Richardson-Like Rino, Kevin got some BTAS fans upset when he replaced Mark Hamill for The Batman's version of Joker, but like Rino, he did a good job voicing the Clown Prince of Crime in time. He also lend his voice for Skulker in Danny Phantom (to be honest, I think he was a better choice than Patrick St. Green).

I must admit that the voices I hear in my head when I read a Marvel comic are based on the ones from the Marvel Animated Universe of the 90s. It's Rino I hear not Tobey Maguire.

I can't believe I forgot about him. You are right that the man rocks! Another great one is Kieth David. The man just oozes cool and awesome as Goliath. And Rino Romano was great as Luis in RE4. :D

From the Futurama panel earlier today, Billy West actually already had that "cocky radio personality" voice down when he moved down to Los Angeles upon Phil Hartman's suggestion.

I'll get into favorites a little later.

Maurice LeMarche
Jon Lovitz
Billy West
Rob Paulsen
Steve Carell (Not there! THERE!)
John Michael Higgins (voice of Mentok on Harvey Birdman)

I Also Like Daran Morris, too.

Charles Martinet-If there's anything I like about him, its that he's a great choice to provide the voice for Mario (along with Luigi, Wario and Waluigi). I just which that Mario actually talk for once, instead of making grunt noises.

A few that I like:
Rob Paulsen- He is the awesome
Richard Hayworth
Ian James Corlett
Johhny Young Bosch- I met him! He was frightened by my crazyness
Eric Stuart
The lovely Veronica Taylor
Eric Vale- I stole his soda bottle when I met him :3
Vic Mignogna
Kirby Morrow
Dante Basco
Greg Ayres
Greg Cipes
Andrew Francis
Grey Delisle
Kelly Sheridan- I forgive her for being in the Barbie movies
Saffron Henderson
Brad Swaile _I'll love him forever
Scott McNeil- I love you
Brian Drummond- I'm sorry. I think he sounds like Scott McNeil and I confuse the two.
Terry Klassen
Christopher Sabat
Maggie Blue O'Hara
Tress MacNeille
Elizabeth Daily
Tara Strong
... and that's all I can think of right now. Sorry... the list wasn't supposed to be that long. I just started typing and it got out of hand. OH!
AND Justin Cook! Who I met and he was an extremely lovely person.

E.G Daily
Billy West (His voice for Stimpy (Ren & Stimpy) was HILARIOUS, and he used a really cute voice for Doug (show self-titled))
Tara Strong
Stephanie Beard AKA Suga BayBee
Veronica Taylor (Please do Ash Ketchum again for us!)
Hyden Walch (I love Lucky Star, and she does Yutaka, one of the cutest characters. She also does Penny on Chalkzone (unlike Tsukasa, I always found Penny annoying))
Julia McIlvaine (She does a bunch of voices on CN's MAD, and was also June in the underrated Nicktoon KaBlam!.)

All I can think of for now
