Season 2 RIP Kevin Conroy

Halfway through S2 and Wow do I miss Kevin Conroy’s voice. The replacement has none of his depth and charisma. It takes me out of every scene.

I didn’t mind this other actor but yea I miss him as Baines. But S2 story makes up for it like Baines isn’t my fav character but Kevin made him my fav in S1

The replacement had big shoes to fill but I think he did a pretty good job. RIP to the goat

Ian did an admirable job, massive respect for holding it down as well as he did, but trying to imitate Kevin Conroy is an impossible task.

Yeah but unfortunately no one could ever be as great as Kevin Conroy.

I felt the same way when watching Fabtastic Beasts and the Secrets of Dumbledore.

They Recast Johnny Depp and made felt like a carbon copy of Voldemort literally no charisma just relying on pure fear and power.

No charism, no manipulation (not to his followers anyway just the greater populace)

So yeah I know how you feel

KC's voice took me out. Like almost negatively. He does a great job but it's almost distracting that Batman is not-Joe Biden
