I guess I am out of my depth on this one. I no longer have any little ones at home so I haven't seen any morning cartoons or kid shows in a long time. I do hear a lot of voices on Amy's Anime shows and all those characters sound the same.

Peg, I agree with you about Jodie Foster's voice but is it distinctive? It used to be that a person in the movies in the early days had to have a voice that was easy to identify because they were so often on the radio too. These days radio is only a mobile music machine ( or talk machine) and nobody HAS to be identifiable without a picture. We have become a picture oriented society.
