It's no secret that My Little Pony shares much in common with the Power Puff Girls cartoon of the late 90's. They share many of the same staff, including Lauren Faust and Tara Strong, and even bridged the same gender gaps in its audience, attracting a large male following despite being a "girl's cartoon".
It should come as no surprise that drama from Power Puff land should spill over into our neck of the woods. Let's take a look at the shitstorm, still in progress.
The only voice talent that was invited to return to the program is that of Tom Kenny who voiced the Mayor as well as the Announcer in the original series.
None of the original star actresses were invited to reprise their iconic roles, with Cartoon Network choosing to cast Amanda Leighton, Kristen Li, and Natalie Palamides instead.
You would know them as being "literally who?" from that show "what?"
Actually,
Leighton was on a show called "Filthy Sexy Teen$",
Natalie Palamides played "Sluts the Cat" on The Brat Cave,
and Li worked in a casting office.
This could become very entertaining very quickly.
Because Horse Fans can't keep their fingers out of anything, every single tweet on the subject has been flooded with both support and disdain for the voice actresses, who have been shut out of their own show without a single warning. So many in fact that Tara saw fit to clarify with this statement.
So what do you think? Is it bullshit that the VA's have been replaced by "Filthy Sexy Teen$" and "Sluts the Cat"? Or should they be more supportive of their replacements?
Lets look at some of the comments.
I don't agree with the decision. There's no good reason this should've happened. Craig McCracken isn't involved for a good reason, and that's because he's too busy with Wander Over Yonder. But the VAs aren't too busy with anything else to not do this. I feel for them for this, but I don't have anything against the new ones. I actually hope they do good, and I even found their Twitters and warned them about the crap they might get. There are people saying that they won't watch this now. I'm not one of those people. I'll still give it a shot when it comes out.
ReplyDeleteOh, and Horse News, the VAs for Mojo Jojo and Miss Keane are also coming back.
ACTUAL JOURNALISM OMG
DeleteLiki, has you commented to Faust and the others yet on the fact that the VAs are porn stars? Ia it relevant or is it just going to merely push Lauren and Tara's feminism buttons for no reason?
Well, actually, er, roles that aren't very wholesome and are very sexist?
DeleteLiki's not a real fucking person, it's like those fake fucking college students that people blame shit on, that later becomes a fucking meme that people spout over and over. Liki is a burner account that HN uses because they are TOO AFRAID to use their real names.
DeleteHe's a person in our hearts.

DeleteMuh Nigga!
I was honestly hoping for Tabitha St. Germain as Blossom, Andrea Libman as Bubbles, and Ashleigh Ball as Buttercup.
ReplyDeleteit was hilarious when faust got involved decrying the process of rebooting something without the original actors/producers
ReplyDeletewhen she's the one who rebooted mlp and didn't use any of the original vas
Most of the VAs on FiM worked on G3 and some worked on G1.
DeleteItsthinking blowing the fuck out of anon here.
DeleteStay cucked anon
Dont even bother watching the reboot. It's being handled by some crazy ass feminazi writers or something lol. So expect a return of Femme Fatale where the girls sympathize with her.
ReplyDeleteCitation needed.
DeleteThat'd be kind of funny actually. If the series were going to be shit anyway, may as well go for the full monty.
DeleteThat "feminist" thing is bullshit that anti-SJWs made up. They're pathetic, whiny-ass crybaby losers that need to constantly make everything under the fucking sun about how they're being oppressed by boogeymen that don't hold nearly as much power anymore. If a probably doesn't exist, they're make it exist. They are the new SJWs.
DeleteThe truth is that the VA was in a comedy video about LITERALLY objectifying women. It was an unfunny joke that went on for entirely too long, but most importantly, she was just a fucking actress hired for the bit. She didn't make the video, it wasn't her opinion or anything. It was made by some no-talent guy from Texas. I know this because I actually did some research instead of no research at all because I'm not yet another asshole trying to push yet another agenda.
found the SJW
Deleteand if not an SJW, then just an asshole who is part of the reason all this he said she said bullshit degrades into grade school name calling every single time
Hi, Jerry Peet!
Deleterumors going around that the new VA for princess morbucks (who is also a writer for the new show) is a tumblr-quality feminist
ReplyDeletealso, why is mando mommy still a thing
Dat misleading clickbait title.
ReplyDeleteGood to see one of the modern scourges of journalism has also infected horse-news.net.
Absolutely haram.
ReplyDeleteThe very thought of passively sitting again, and also permitting your personnel to get the brand-new employees to your firm may be counter-productive. It might not in favor of what we are informed will be your job information, that is head finest, and also seeking out brand-new applicants. The reason why on the globe would likely you intend to make it possible for firm personnel to do this available for you, and also just how on the globe would likely this just about all perform?
