Line 88:
** He seems to have traded in I Am Not Spock for [[Typecasting]] as authoritative villains, including King Haggard and the grouchy bishop in ''Corpse Bride''.
* [[Kelsey Grammer]] will probably always be identified with his eponymous in ''[[Frasier]]''. After all, he not only played it for 11 years in that show, but portrayed the same character for 9 years before that in ''[[Cheers]]''.
** To be sure, Grammer did play the Beast in [[X-Men (film)|X-Men]]... And [[The Simpsons (animation)|Sideshow Bob]]. You know. Two refined men with [[Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness]] and a liking for class and the fine life. [[Typecasting|Just like Frasier]].
** Though he has won a lot of acclaim (including a Golden Globe) for playing the main character in ''Boss''. Mayor Kane is certainly intelligent and articulate like Frasier, but is also extremely profane, violent, cruel and calculating. A far cry from the arrogant but ultimately lovable character he is so identified with.
* Poor [[Sherlock Holmes|Sherlock Ho]]... er, Basil Rathbone. Rathbone's kind of an interesting case, as he also played a lot of [[Aristocrats Are Evil|evil aristocrats]] in various swashbuckler films and in fact did an [[Affectionate Parody]] of this type-casting in the [[Danny Kaye]] film ''[[The Court Jester]]''.
Line 321:
* Maria Antonieta de las Nieves will always be [[El Chavo del Ocho|La Chilindrina]], even in sketches where she does not play the character.
* Voice actors in the Spanish speaking fandom will always be remembered for their roles in famous series. Notable character roles in Mexico include:
** Humberto Vélez: [[The Simpsons (animation)|Homer Simpson]]. Made funnier when he became the voice of [[Family Guy|Peter Griffin]].
*** Oddly enough, he even dubbed ''[[The Flintstones|Fred Flintstone]]'' too in a tv special...
** Patricia Acevedo: [[Sailor Moon]] or [[The Simpsons (animation)|Lisa Simpson]].
** Jesús Barrero: [[Saint Seiya|Pegasus Seiya]].
** Francisco Colmenero: [[Mickey Mouse|Pete]], and he's still voicing the character, currently. Also, [[The Smurfs|Papa Smurf]].
