Man Of Many Voices: Billy West Talks About 'Futurama: The Compete Collection'

Voice actor Billy West stopped by the studio this morning to talk about the upcoming release of Futurama: The Complete Collection.

Futurama: The Complete Collection includes all four seasons of the animated series. Futurama is set in New New York City and centers on Philip Fry, a 25-year-old pizza delivery boy from Brooklyn who accidentally freezes himself on New Year’s Eve 1999 in a cryogenics lab. He wakes up 1,000 years in the future with a chance to make a fresh start. He's still a delivery boy but this time he's working for the intergalactic delivery company Planet Express, where his co-workers include an angry robot, one-eyed mutant and a crabby alien.

West is a heavyweight in the voice acting industry. On Futurama alone, he does the voices for the charatcers Philip J. Fry, Professor Farnsworth, Dr. Zoidberg and Zapp Brannigan, just to name a few. Cartoon lovers will also remember hearing his voice as Doug Funnie from Doug, Ren from Ren and Stimpy, Bugs Bunny and Elmer Fudd from Space Jam, among other career highlights.
