Woo-Hoo! Harry Shearer’s Ba-Diddly-Ack on The Simpsons
Woo-Hoo! Harry Shearer’s Ba-Diddly-Ack on The Simpsons
Entertainment Weekly reports that the vocally varied voice-over virtuoso has signed a new deal akin to that of his costars. So it was a hardball negotioating tactic after all – I’m proud to say that unlike many other sites, we always speculated it was such.
And in anticipation of the obvious, inevitable “But The Simpsons sucks anyway!” comments – no matter where you stand, it would indisputably suck more without Shearer. So pish posh to you.

About The Author
Luke Y. Thompson has been writing professionally about movies and pop-culture since 1999, and has also been an actor in some extremely cheap culty and horror movies you will probably never hear much about (he is nonetheless mostly proud of them, as he met his wife on one). As editor of The Robot's Voice since 2012, he can take the blame for the majority of the site's content, all of which he creates because he loves you very, very much. (Although he loves nachos more. Sorry.)
Prior to TRV, Luke wrote for publications that include the New Times LA, Los Angeles CityBeat, E! Online, OC Weekly, Geekweek, GeekChicDaily, The L.A. Times, The Village Voice, LA Weekly, and Nerdist
