Say hello to your new Cleveland Brown

>It doesn’t look like Family Guy will have a hard time finding Henry’s replacement, as Wendell Pierce has graciously offered to step in. Pierce, who starred in the David Simon series The Wire and Treme, launched a campaign to voice Cleveland Brown on Twitter—interestingly referencing The Cleveland Show, which ended after four seasons in 2013, instead of Family Guy. Either Pierce is unaware that the spinoff ended, or he’s taking a humorous jab at Family Guy. Or maybe he hopes his casting will revive the spinoff, and honestly, why the hell not! Look, Wendell Pierce is out here publicly offering his services, and the creators of Family Guy would be FOOLS to not take him up on it.

Think this mad lad could revive The Cleveland Show?

What does his voice sound like?

Can he make the funny Cleveland voice?

Sure let's revive a show that's been dead for years simply because the twitter mob can't understand what a voice ACTOR does and someone said they could use the money. What could go wrong?

Wendell is pretty based but I'm so used to him as Bunk I can't imagine him as Cleveland

>why the hell not! Look, Wendell Pierce is
BLACK, and that's what's important. Any black guy will do. First come first served...as long as you're black.

That's great and all but can we get rid of qualified immunity?

This is for Family Guy, not Cleveland Show

Fuck no, Mike Henry is the only Cleveland, he was my chilhood.

#NotmyCleveland

Wendell Pierce doesn't know that

Remember the last time a cartoon had an abrupt, unnecessary voice change?

This is a thread about voice actors, not politics

If we don't get to have Mike Henry voicing, then just kill off the character.

The tweet the actor put out specifically said "The Cleveland Show" instead of Family Guy weirdly enough.

Didn't it kill the show?

Because he's just a grifter taking advantage of the situation and knows nothing about Family guy.

Found a very short clip of him on The Wire

Kinda funny that his pal's name in said clip is Lester though.

>Cartoons and vidya constantly under pressure to reduce costs
>Used to do that by having one VA voice multiple roles regardless of race, gender or even species
>Now they have to hire extra VAs and cut costs to animation, sound, writers, etc or cut out minorities from future episodes
How did this happen?

Yeah people really care about the voice of a side character who's barely in the show as is.

Oh BOO! Ah who cares, i don't even watch the damn cartoon anyway.

didn't Gumball have two sets of voice actor shake up for the main characters already?

This stopped being about police reforms 3 weeks ago. Now it's big corporations virtue signalling, commies rioting, and Minnesota is still destroyed.

>as Wendell Pierce has graciously offered to step in
What is he doing it for free?

Part of what made Cleveland funny was that he was obviously voiced by a white guy. Giving him a black VA ruins him.

Because whites couldn’t stop killing blacks

That's common for young voice actors because the original voice actor's voices got deep.

>journo makes a filler article out of two tweets

Somehow I'm not surprised.

That doesn't explain Apu.

Yeah let's not get this shit twisted Bunk is trying to get paid

Why does Clark Kent want to associate himself with this lot again?

Child actors aging. Hey Arnold's mc is 5 different people, for example.

>graciously offered to step in.
>graciously
How does that look? Did he stride in heroically and announce he was going to save us?

>Big Name Actor wants the role

>"Oh, hey Cleveland moved again."

I might actually start to care and like Cleveland if Bunk is voicing him.

Oh boy, we're shopping around on causes of death. At least you finally stopped trying to compare it to drunk driving.

They can't kill Cleveland, he has a family now.
