You know, the actors who have just been fired and their roles recast, due to budget problems for the new ComedyCentral series. Will this be hilarious? disgusting? Will voices and indeed voiceovers be raised? Will the audience rebel? Will Matt Groening be dragged down from his panel and made to answer for his crimes against voiceover pay scales?
