The show recently ended it's Kids WB run with the final episode dubbed by 4Kids, the Advance/Battle Frontier arc recently wrapped up, and we're ready for the next stage based on the Pokemon Diamond and Pearl games

...Once more, Brock and Ash stay, May and Max are out in favour of the game's new female character.

Hmf.. it's gonna suck without the original cast

[Dr. Doom]

Similarly to how it sucked WITH the original cast, I assume...just yanno...more.

Is that a fire monkey? :)

Yeah, I watched the "Master of Mirage Pokemon" and the VAs just were'nt there, CN are also notorious for never handling Kids WB shows well (such as the underrated, now Jetix owned Jackie Chan Adventures)

[Kid Icarus]

Is that a fire monkey? :) Yep yup.

I've got no hope for the new VA's. The fans are still livid that 4Kids wouldn't let the old ones continue work on the show.

As much as I hate 4Kids (and Pokemon for that matter, but I won't extrapolate) they have some very nice VO's. I mean, other dubs I've seem have very wooden performances (I don't like some of funimation's Dragon Ball voice work... I liked the Canadian first few episodes, tho).

I wish I had some way to hire the best of them (Eric Stuart of course) to another company that deserves their talents. That's what I liked about TMNT being handled by them. We have good voice actors not just slaving away on dubs, and doing a living breathing series.
