I was watching the Pulse on Fox around 9:45 PST tonight, and during the break a promo for the show was talking about the steamy side of Springfield. Marge made a comment before showing Homer in the sauna, and her voice didn't sound like Julie Kavner. It sounded kinda like Maggie Roswell doing a Marge impression. Did anyone notice this, or is my hearing just off?
Did you notice Marge's voice?
I just noticed marge's voice on the promo too! Did Julie Kavner quit or, God forbid, die, or something?
I searched google news and found nothing. Of course the upcoming new episode of the simpsons was produced at the very least, months ago...?

I just now saw the commercial, and boy are you right! That very well could have been Maggie Roswell, or maybe a special guest, or someone anyway, or they must be preparing us to watch.
it wasn't like that on the first airing. that's the oddest part.
you're very brave for admitting that.

Actually, one of the women voice actors on the show does do a Julie "Marge" Kavner impression! Reportedly, it's pretty good, and she'll step in if the producers need to re-do a Marge line and Ms. Kavner isn't available. Problem is, I forget who the stand-in is. I think it's either Tress MacNeille, or Pamela Hayden.
So anyway, your hearing is not necessarily off.
