You know, there are more anime examples than western animation examples in Relationship Voice Actor. Got any ideas for this?

hmm...

I've definitely heard Jim Cummings, Tress Macneille, and Rob Paulsen in a lot of stuff, though I'm not sure if their characters had interactions.

That's mostly because there are less examples of "actors being hired in reference to a relationship they had on a prior show" than in other media.

Cree Summer and Will Friedle as it says on the Thundercats (2011) Trivia.

They where Terry Mc Ginnis / Batman and Max Gibson on Batman Beyond.

When Will voiced Leo in his back to the past through the Book of Omens episode Cree was brought in to voice Leo's fellow rebel leader and girlfriend Panthera.

She also played Panthera again in the Birth of the Blades with Will's best friend Jason Marsden.

Tara Strong and Kath Soucie. Both have been Timmy Turner and Bubbles. Bubbles was Kath Soucie in the "What a Cartoon" shorts, and Timmy has been Kath Soucie since 2004.

Whoa, so like, they've got some kind of Bill Murray/Lorenzo Music thing going on? [lol]

Can you help me? I want to add an example in Mark Hamill with someone from Regular Show.

Ok... wow. This trope's page has a serious problem with "Anime-Tropeism," which is a problem I didn't even know we still had in places.

On the other hand, it seems like it's mainly stuffed with "these two actors played the same character once" and "these two actors have been in shows together, regardless of whether they actually had anything to do with each other," which means it probably has a bunch of bad examples.

Which, in fact, it does. Hrm... I wonder if I should take this to TRS.

Timmy has been Kath Soucie since 2004.

...that's blatantly incorrect. Timmy still is and always has been Tara Strong since the actual show started, with the exception of the Oh Yeah Cartoons shorts, in which he was voiced by Mary Kay Bergman (who no longer voices anyone for really sad reasons).

Insert witty and clever quip here. My page, as the database hates my handle.

It's not the first time Tara Strong took over for Bergman, either.

I know there are a number of cases, in Western Animation, where this has occurred with actors doing voice acting who are better known as live-action actors. Gargoyles, for instance, had Jonathan Frakes (Xanatos), Mirina Sirtis (Demona), Brent Spiner (Puck), and Michael Dorn (umm..can't remember, but I know he was there) in prominent roles, all of whom were on Star Trek: TNG together. Justice League: Unlimited did this too with some of the cast of Firefly, with Nathan Fillon as Vigilante (and later as Hal Jordan/Green Lantern), Moreena Baccarin as Black Canary, Adam Baldwin as Rick Flagg (later did the voice of Superman for Superman: Doomsday) and Gina Torres as Vixen; I think Summer Glau did the voice of Supergirl in one of the straight-to-video releases, too.

Blueframe: They've also worked in a lot of projects with Kath Soucie, Frank Welker and Billy West, though one could argue whether that's less to do with Relationship Voice Actors and more to do with the fact they are high profile voice actors who did next to every big cartoon during the 80s and 90s.

Mel Blanc, June Foray and Stan Freberg can be put under similar circumstances, though the latter two apparently still work together in their more relaxed later years. They've both provided voices for The Garfield Show for example.

[up] Well, any other examples Billy West and Kath Soucie starred in together besides Bugs and Lola from Space Jam?

It's because Western Animation tends to be a much, much smaller group.

[up][up]Futurama. Billy West voiced Farmsworth who grew his own clone, Cubert, voiced by Kate.

Jeff Bennett is usually a suave hero or anti-hero to the villain played by Mark Hamill. First there's Johnny Bravo and King Raymond, then Creeper and Joker. Any other examples?
