  • RTOON EVOLUTION #44.3 - MARGE SIMPSON
    Created as a companion video to my series of CARTOON EVOLUTION videos (specifically 'Evolution of THE SIMPSONS - 37 Years Explained'), I take a look at the vocal evolution of Julie Kavner as I compare her vocal performance of Marge from The Tracy Ullman Show and through the 35 seasons of The Simpsons series.
    Here's my look at Marge Simpson's Voice Through the Years!

    Kinda ironic you released this right after LS Mark’s newest video where he’s worried about the Simpsons voice actors not being able to do this much longer specifically citing Julie Kavner.

    • @Chelaxim
      @Chelaxim 3 місяці тому +6

      If you remember there was a Godfather game on PS2 and there's a unused voice clip by Marlon Brando that he recorded on his litteral death bed...trust me it could get MUCH worse. Also look up a recent live performance by Bon Jovi.
      Julie's not good anymore but it hasn't gone into the "this just makes me feel sad" territory...yet.

    After the twenty-sixth season, you could tell that Julie Kavner was starting to sound rough in the next eight seasons.
    While i feel bad, this is her own choice of deciding whenever to retire or continue voicing Marge Bovier Simpson.

      Yeah LS Mark said that in his newest video talking about shows that run too long and is legit worried for Julie Kavner.

    • @mightyfilm
      @mightyfilm 3 місяці тому +8

      Just a reminder. Julie Kavner's first major role was the sitcom Rhoda, which was all the way back in 1974. And I couldn't tell you if she's the only surviving cast member, but Valarie Harper (the Rhoda of Rhoda) died several years back. So basically a career spanning 50 years from the premiere episode of that sitcom to the last episode of the Simpsons recorded. And 30+ years of doing a character with a scratchy voice as well as 2 others with an even scratchier voice (Patty and Selma) isn't going to do vocal cords any favors.

      Yeah. She’s in her 70’s, so it makes sense. And it really highlights just how long the show has been on the air

    • @jordandutra9029
      @jordandutra9029 3 місяці тому +3

      Yeah and no offense to Julie’s voice, but her voice sounds like she inhaled a pack of Marlboro or something. Hopefully in the future they’ll find a new voice for Marge to replace Julie.

    • @Dhampir101980
      @Dhampir101980 3 місяці тому +3

      @@jordandutra9029 there’s no need unless Julie decides to retire or if she passes away. If they wanted to replace her, then they already could have by now.

  • @Father_of_Death
    @Father_of_Death Місяць тому +5

    She's 73 years old but now Marge sounds like she's 80 years old.
    There's speculation that she has been suffering vocal chord damage since "The Simpsons Movie" and season 27 sounds like it's the last time she could hide that vocal damage. But by season 30 it sounds like she has to use her natural voice.

  • @MilasMixMedia
    @MilasMixMedia 3 місяці тому +11

    In the other seasons and the newer seasons of the show, you can really tell that Marge’s voice has gone much raspier than EVER before, a lot of people have said that Julie the voice actress who plays Marge her voice is not what it was before or it’s not the same or you can tell the difference, I heard people really complain about the voice she is using look people do age that’s gonna happen including playing a character for so long, that genuinely that’s what happens when you grow older and voicing a character for so long for so many years.

    Marge is my favourite Simpson. She's so dry and hilarious, with both an inner strength and an endearing vulnerability. Julie Kavner is fantastic. Even though there's an obvious shift in her voice, as it deepens and gets gravellier in her older age, she's never stopped making wonderful character choices and giving it her all. In this seasons' A Mid-Childhood Night's Dream, she delivers one of her all time greatest performances.

    Marge is my favorite of the Simpsons family cause her jokes always make me laugh and she’s retained a lot of her maternal charm that she always had even in the earliest episodes. I can’t imagine anyone but Julie giving Marge her voice. It’s kind of a shame that she’s definitely having trouble keeping the same voice for the fact that it has got to be harsh on the vocal chords (not to mention she also does the voices of the even more throaty Patty and Selma). If she did decide to pass the baton to someone else just for sake of sparing her vocal cords I’d totally get why, but she’d always be THE Marge Simpson.

    Somewhere around season 25 - 26 is where it got really noticeably bad. I imagine 20 years from now she'll sound just like Krusty the Clown. Will be interesting to see the update in 2044.

    Don't get it when people complain about Marge's voice. It's supposed to sound bad. That's sort of the joke of the character. I am more put off by Mr. Burns's voice. He ironically sounds too old. You could say his current voice fits the character better but I feel sad listening to it.

    • @Dhampir101980
      @Dhampir101980 3 місяці тому +2

      Well, Mr. Burns’ voice actor is 80 years old now, so it makes sense.

    • @benjaminwilson2945
      @benjaminwilson2945 3 місяці тому +1

      I've noticed Homer's voice has started sounding slightly breathier in the past two or three seasons, but I don't mind the difference. I think his new voice kind of fits his current cuddly personality.
      Also if you read this icecreamhero, I'm the person who talked to you on a video about the SpongeBob movies by 24 frames of nick. Side note I always you comment everywhere haha.

    • @nathanielbacon2661
      @nathanielbacon2661 3 місяці тому +1

      💯 You are bang-on. Marge has always sounded gravelly and hoarse, so I can accept her current sound. Mr. Burns feels like a shadow of his former self. He's the only Simpsons character who feels deflated to me now.

    When I used to watch the Simpsons as a kid with my older brother, my mom hated the show for two things:
    - its dark and sometimes controversial themes
    - Marge’s voice legit gave her headaches.
    And this wasn’t the original version, we watched the French dub of the Simpsons and Marge’s voice is even worse than Julie’s voice in the newer seasons lmao

    • @marshallstone2251
      @marshallstone2251 3 місяці тому +4

      I'd say around Season 28 is when the voice difference started to get bad, and it's only devolved bit by bit each passing season. Julie's rasp is hard to maintain, especially when you feel like you're using the throat more to compensate for decreasing mixed and head range, so it's an unfortunate consequence of time passing.
