New Billy West Interview--Futurama's back, baby!

Watch more FOX News videos on AOL Video

I've kept up with all the new 2 hour videos from Futurama, and now it's been announced that Comedy Central has ordered another 26 NEW episodes! Overjoyness. This is a nice interview with Billy West on his career and the Futurama comeback. A great artist, indeed. Enjoy!

Cary Grant, Orson Wells Links at LibriVox!

They are not recorded FOR LibriVox, but they are given by members of the forum. Check this out! I didn't want to just repost their links; they have done it and they should get the credit! I have more I've collected and will add them in on slow news years. :-)

Flash Frees! [or] Frees Frame!

[Reposted from Forging Reputations, my main blog, a post from 3/20/07]

Also, I found some new stuff on one of the family heroes, Paul Frees, such as a radio version of "The Most Dangerous Game" by Richard Connell (it's fawningly faithful to the short story version) with him as Sanger Rainsford, and a story of how Paul did the voice of "Josephine" in Some Like It Hot; I also found a movie with him and Sinatra online: Suddenly.
Well, I feel better now.
Put ze candle BECK!

PS, Kudos to the B-Movie Graveyard for their great writeup and mediafest of The Thing From Another World!

Fantastic voice actor Corey Burton first came to my attention as the Paul Frees sound-alike narrator for Stan Freberg's "The United States of America: The Middle Years." He has also done the same emulation for the Halloween adaptation of Disney's Haunted Mansion, with a "Nightmare Before Christmas" theme. He's great! Too bad I don't have cable and have not seen the SW series yet.

This is a great interview with Billy West, with some background, West says, that he hadn't revealed before. I also found a very good one with Corey Burton I'll post soon!
