bobby

What I hate is that bobby's voice is done by a girl. Bobby is sort of queer and the voice being done by a girl don't help much

do you watch KOTH? hank hill(mike judge) is always saying, act like a man and that boy need to end up right. Same with Bart simpson. His voice is played by a girl

So is Charlie Brown's voice and he's not gay. Well, at 6 or so years old it's hard to tell what you're going to turn out like anyway. But still, it's just a cartoon.

Charlie Brown is not voiced by a girl! The Peanuts kids always have been played by real kids, not adult voice actors. Therefore, many kids have been the voice of Charlie Brown over the years (as they grow older, they are replaced). Perhaps, there has been a girl playing Charlie Brown once or twice, I don't know. But it is usually a boy.

I do know that Peppermint Patty has been voiced by a boy at least once . . .

yeah your right. I do think that it's hard to tell and that it does not matter much but I am very protective of my cartoons lol!

The main advantage to having Bobby (or Bart Simpson, for that matter) voiced by a female is that their voice does not "change". Since these cartoon characters do not age (Bart's been 10 for 11 years!), their male childlike voices cant age either.

I really hope they don't follow the Simpson's example of not aging the characters. I would love to see Bobby's first prom, graduations etc. The Simpsons is a different kind of show IMO, but KOH is at its best during the flashbacks, and I think this can be accented by allowing the children to age, so we can actually follow Bobby, Khan Jr. through Highschool or even College down the line. For the adults, it would be interesting to watch how they handle mid life challenges. I like the fact that next week's episode seems to be touching on old age and driving. It gets kind of repetitive if everything goes back to normal after every episode.

I agree. KOTH moves in a different level of reality from The Simpsons -- closer to our own. Last time we discussed this on this ng -- about half a year ago give or take half a year -- I think the debate was evenly divided.

I think KOTH is meant to be truthful. They don't have the sarcasticness of the simpsons. when you think about it, KOTH is not funny. it is what you would here everyday of your life but they put that together. The simpsons are not realistic annd a bit more funnier because of the pointless jokes example:

(KOTH) aren't you suposed to knock first? I could be naked! (SIMP) you must be the guy that didn't know if it was a pimple or a moyale... it was a jelly bean

John, John, John ... it was a *gummy bear*.

Would you rather hear some annoying real kid's voice spouting those lines? How about if they trade the woman currently doing the voice for someone who smokes two packs a day. Would that help?

for god sakes just pick some one that fits the role. otherwise the characters age and the voice stays. bart went wrong because he never felt puberty
