...as Raph? After being Raph for ten years in the OT, you'd think Rob Paulsen would return to the turtle scene as just that - Raph. But they gave him the role of Don instead. Why do you guys think this was done?
My personal guess is that the writers wanted Raph to sound traditional - deep voice, bit of a New England accent, and hot-headed. Rob Paulsen was nothing like that as Raph, so they gave the fan favorite roll to Sean Astin instead.
