Who's your favorite celebrity from any current show on Fox TV, that
you'd most want to meet and spend time with, if you could attend the
2012 Emmy awards and catch up with them ?

It's a two way tie between Chris "a thrill runs up my leg when Obama
speaks" Matthews and Rachel "mad dyke" Madcow. No wonder MSNBC always
has such high viewer ratings.

In spite all of the lies, distortions and smear attacks the Democrats have
hurled at Romney, he still has one advantage. Obama's miserable record,
failed economic policies and lack of leadership.

John Noble from Fringe. Or Kiefer Sutherland from 24... I mean Touch.

Matt Groening. If I could just talk to him for awhile and convince him to make me the voice of a regular, I'd be set for life.

Only if he made it retroactive.

You say that like THE SIMPSONS will ever go off the air.
I'd talk to Seth McFarlane, but he does the voices himself...and I don't like any of his shows.

I was thinking more that a regular starting now wouldn't get anything like the pay the current regulars do.

I love how animation has become massively expensive to produce because
of bloated wages of voice actors, or because one's movie must be voiced
with well-known actors or music celebrities.
No one got rich working for Hanna-Barbera. Of course their solution to
salary bloat of voice actors who did Tom & Jerry was the ideal one.

Remind me what they did?
It will be interesting when somebody (and I'm staring Homer right in the face) finally quits, and is replaced with a sound-a-like for a fraction of what he'd been being paid, to see how the lawsuits play out. You *used* to be able to recast Popeye or Betty Boop with an imitator, but I don't know that you could get away with that any more, especially if Dan leaves over a salary dispute.
The big name actor thing ... while I don't care for it, it does have it's purposes. It makes a lot of insecure people feel like they're working on a 'real' movie and gives them some street cred with suits who are used to dealing with live action. And it gives you somebody to take publicity photos of, and send out to appear on the talk shows. It generally makes the end product a poorer one, but without it there might not be an end product at all.

The two characters were silent!

Tell me about this lawsuit. Dan Castellaneta believes he owns the way
the character sounds? Wow.

I pulled his name out of the hat; I'm just saying, I bet he'd have a case now, the way other celebrities have sued companies for using sound alikes.

Well, there was Bette Midler vs Ford, which we've discussed here before.
IIRC she ultimately lost.
