The page would never load; the front page of the site would, but not that page. It must be because of the hundreds of thousands of hits coming from this newsgroup.

I never understood why/how Hawking ever got credit for "voicing" any show, since the voice isn't really his. It's a damn computer synthesized voiced. His voice "credits" should go to Speech Plus.

The top five better be from this list: Kirk Douglas, Larry, I mean Barry, White :-), Buzz Aldrin, Joe Mantegna, Patrick Stewart, Glenn Close, Bette Midler, Johnny Carson, George Harrison, Christopher Walken, Willem Dafoe, George Takei.

But, what about Ed Flanders, Brace Banyon, Frank Sutton, Werner Klemperer, Jonathan Harris, John Wayne, The Three Stooges, Elvis Presley, Jim Nabors, Joe Namath, Stan Lee, R Lee Ermey, Kelsey Grammer, George HW Bush, Gerald Ford, Richard Nixon, Yoko Ono, Bob Hope (just on last week), Jay Mohr, Adolf Hitler, Bob Dole, Neil Armstrong (this man has actually been in outer space!)?

You spelled Jon Waters' name incorrectly.

OH, I almost forgot, .... ISAAC HAYES! :-)

Well, now that the page is loading, I am happy to report that you're WRONG. Make no mistake, though, I assumed the same thing.

As a matter of fact, Jackson doesn't make this list at all, which is weird. That episode wasn't the greatest, but at the time, getting Jackson to do the show was a big deal. Maybe it was because he didn't sing...

<snipped list of jobbers>

The lack of Bret "The Hitman" Hart vitiates, nullifies and invalidates this list.

Nah. He has old man stink.

I finally saw the list. How in the hell did Danny Bonaduce get to be #1?

"Hey Homer, could you kill a couple of people on the way out?"
