What is your reaction when you see a picture of a voice actor(s) of one of your favorite characters for the very first time? I'm just curious to know.

Hmmm, depends.
Sometimes, it's "GAHHH!"
Occasionally, "Wow, he's BALD?"
Every so often, "God, that little old lady sure is a hottie in real life!"
BTW, besides Katie Sagal, I have no idea what the other voices in Futurama look like in real life. Got any links?
of
know.
No, but, I did get the September 27 TV Guide (The one with Trista & Ryan from "The Bachelorette" on the cover) in the mail today, and on page 20 there's a "Face Behind The Voice" feature of Maurice LaMarche. No mentioned of the Professor, anyway, but, they does mentioned of being Toucan Sam (From those Froot Loops commericals) as we as Stripperella's Chief Stroganoff. Well worth reading.
And no mention of his best non-Futurama role, The Brain. (As in Pinky and...)

Who likes pretty OK to me.
Well, Amy was voiced by Lauren Tom who played Ross's girlfriend Julie in early S2 Friends.

Damn, Lauren Tom is HOT! Usually voiceover artists ain't the most visually pleasing, otherwise they would be working in front of a camera, not just a microphone, but she's smokin'! And I don't even have a thing for asian chicks!
I totally did not expect Billy West to look like that, though. I guess I pretty much pictured him looking like Fry. Silly, I know, but he was just so perfect for the role.
In the last picture, is the guy with the long hair John DiMaggio? I've only seen him as Steve Ballmer in "Pirates of Silicon Valley", and he looked MUCH different in that. He was bald, for one thing...
On or about Tue, 23 Sep 2003 11:00:51 -0400, David Litchman made the sensational claim that:
I'd say he looks like an older, not red headed Fry.
Billy West has his own website with one photo of him and some Futurama pals.

I noticed that too. I've decided that he means that John DiMaggio plays "Benders" meaning multiple Bending Units, Bender and Flexo.

You got that right! I knew I had heard her name before, but didn't remember that she was on Friends.

When Bravo had on all the people from the Simpsons for one big interview, the only one who bugged me was Dan Castellaneta (Homer)-I've seen Nancy Cartwright so with her it sort of worked. Yeardly Smith however was cute as heck for a woman in her forties (I think), and Hank Azaria was great when doing Moe.
John DiFool
Someone let John DiFool loose on on a computer... and the unfortunate result was:
Fortunately, the above show is floating around the net... otherwise I would never have had the opportunity to see it. Castellaneta does have some strange facial expressions... :)
Agree about Azaria too... "Hello, Moe's Tavern: home of the world's smallest big screen TV"

heh, ever notice when he briefly slips into the Moe voice in Godzilla ?

TV GUIDE did a profile on Maurice LaMarche a few weeks back. He plays Kif, Calculon, Morbo, and Lrrr among others. He's a pretty handsome guy, if you ask me. But then, I've been a big fan of his since his Comedy Store days, when he was on the HBO 9th Annual Young Comedians Special (way back in '85). Elizabeth
