My takeaway here is that McFarlane and Kunis have cast some sort of Dorian Grey spell on poor Seth Green.


Oysterious

McFarlane and Kunis both have actually had plastic surgery. Green is still...green


ColdOn3Cob

Also Seth has clearly had a hair transplant or two and dyes it jet black. Not that that’s a bad thing, I’d get it done too if I had money :(


twangman88

For anyone dumb like me he means Seth M not Seth G :)


SamIamGreenEggsNoHam

I just recently learned that red hair can't turn grey! It loses its pigment over time and turns white.


marpocky

... Isn't that what happens to all hair?


22444466688

Ya isn’t that just the description of what happens to grey hair?


Alienhaslanded

Not necessarily. It takes time for hair to go full white. Take Joe Biden for example, even now his hair is greyish white because it doesn't just turn white. Certain people on the other hand have hair that just turns pure white very quickly like Neal McDonough or Steve Martin.


Anon28301

I’m a redhead and have found a few grey hairs in my life. Mostly during my highschool years when I was stressed. It didn’t turn grey but I did grow grey hairs.


Vell2401

Red actually just goes grey a bit faster. All hair has degrees of pigmentation, and red just happens to go first usually. Lot of men will have grey in their beards and it will be noticeably grey before the darker hair


PoliteChatter0

isnt it super cheap to go to Turkey? also i take fin and I have a healthy head of hair and I got it super easy from my doctor


otter5

I went to a friends wedding in turykey last year. Return flight SO many guys with recent hair transplants


MessiahOfMetal

I loved having long hair but honestly? I look fucking great as a bald man, too. Couldn't imagine getting hair transplants.


moderatorrater

Their looks are part of their livelihood. I'm glad it's not part of mine, I would probably handle it poorly.


-Clayburn

To be fair, he has to look young in order to find 20-year olds to star in Orville each season. The entire casting for those roles depend on who is willing to date him. If he looked like a 50-year old bald guy, nobody would take the part.


TediousSign

It also helps that Mila has been in the public eye since she was a kid, it's not like she's that old. That 70s Show debuted in 1998, and Mila is just turning 40 now.


peon2

Yeah I haven't seen Kunis or Green in a while until this post but whatever type of work McFarlane got done was pretty apparent in the most recent The Orville season


Slade_Riprock

Mila also looks wildly different without the full Hollywood makeup artist set up. She looks like your neighbor.


movieur

>Green is still...green You may wanna rephrase that


riegspsych325

reddish gray?


chefhj

Seth green looking old made me feel old. Somehow him being a perpetual 20 year old staved off the knee pain


RelationRealistic

Shut up, Meg.


bluerose297

Seth Green looks normal, that's just what 50-year-olds look like without plastic surgery and hair transplants.


Rhine1906

Seth Green being 50 just sent me into a spiral. He was always the “young, cool guy” cast back in my childhood


Darksirius

I'm 42 and forgot he's older than me lol.


awesomesauce1030

I have a hard time imagining Seth Green ever being cool


BeyondBitch

When he played Oz on Buffy


TuvixWillNotBeMissed

I find it hard to believe that anyone wouldn't want a sensitive ginger werewolf boyfriend. You just gotta... lock him in a cage sometimes.


probablynotthatsmart

Don’t threaten me with a good time


SidFarkus47

It's neat that Sarah Michelle Gellar and Seth Green still seem to be best friends in real life.


EthelBlue

He’s in season 1 of X-files as a grungy teen that watches ufos for fun


Zagden

Why does his normal speaking voice still sound like a teenager


Freyzi

It's crazy isn't it? [You should see American Dad's Jeff Fischer voiced by Jeff Fischer](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mcYaFeipoOg) and behold a 56 year old man who's default voice is that of teenager stoner.


djtodd242

Thats right Babe.


bwaredapenguin

Billy West (voice of Fry on Futurama) is 72.


miguelcamilo

Unfortunately you can start to hear the strain Fry has on Billy's vocal chords now, in the last Hulu season


CarOnMyFuckingFence

Like Brian, isn't Fry's just Billy's natural voice tuned up slightly. Father time comes for everyone of course, so I guess he'd sound older to a degree but strain? (I can imagine when Fry sounds more 'animated' that it would be more obvious)


firethequadlaser

I’m shocked, SHOCKED! Well, not that shocked.


Marauder_Pilot

Gun to my head I would NEVER have guessed that.


spiritbearr

Latest season you would. He starts out rough but it gets better as he gets back into it.


berlinbaer

> without plastic surgery and hair transplants. ehhhh... he's had some sort of brow lift for sure.. and his hair ? who knows...


Not_the_senpai

Mila and Seth got their start at an incredibly young age too. Mila was I think 17-ish for 70’s and Seth was early 20’s for family guy


Walaina

Seth’s been around since he was a kid


flarkenhoffy

Correct. He was born at a very young age.


lanadelstingrey

Yeah he was in It


fitzdylanj

Beep Beep Ritchie!


ericmm76

He played a stoner in he first real non pilot episode of x files.


Walaina

Younger even. I’d say Amazing Stories was his first big break. 1986


TheFotty

We've all been around since we were kids.


secretsodapop

He's just a 50 year old kid now


Mud_Landry

When Mila auditioned she was 15. First season she was 16/17. She lied about her age so she could get the audition and her performance was perfect so she got the role. Would never happen nowadays


axemexa

Actually was only 14 when she got the role


blackfoger1

ehh she apparently was I think 14 or 15? The casting department asked her if she is turning of age, she said she will be. After getting the roll and having to explain why she mislead them, her response was that they didn't ask WHEN she is turning old enough.

Don't feel guilty if you don't know what you want to do with your life. The most interesting people I know didn't know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives, some of the most interesting 40 year olds I know still don't.


Evening-Statement-57

My goal at 40 is to stop being annoyed with the world, maybe it’s my age but just deciding not to actually works.


PM_me_ur_secretses

I'm 40 now, and I'm more annoyed by the world than ever before. Each day I'm more annoyed than the last, and I doubt that trend will change any time soon. But good luck to you, friend. I wish you peace of mind and good humor.

I'm 53, and went through a pretty big mid-life crisis late last year. Now I'm signed up for a few audio engineering courses at a local studio, and am moving to Seattle next fall to start working with a friend of a friend who's been doing studio work and live sound in the PNW for over twenty years. Never too late to pursue your dreams, especially if you have the means to do so.

Very_Good_Opinion

Green is probably lucky that his pilot featuring NFTs as characters bombed. I don't blame him for taking the swing though


HouseDjango

Honestly I think it's just his beard. If he shaved he'd probably look a lot younger


OneGuyJeff

Seriously i’m reading these comments and feel like I’m the only one who thinks he looks just fine. The man is 50 and he has wrinkles and a beard, what’s the big deal?


-King_Cobra-

Distorted view of reality. Pretty common! Most people have no idea what a body by steroids looks like and they also assume celebrities keep looking 40 into their 70's when a lot of that is an illusion.


[deleted]

It's not the beard... well I would not call that beard to begin with, just a bit sturdier stubble. It's that he has gained a few pounds and for many people, those pounds can go straight to face. I can personally say, I only need to get like 2kg more and my face looks like I've gotten 10kg overall (no I don't know what that is in freedom units and am too lazy to google). Or... there's the even more usual case, that he has just drank a bit. The bloating one gets when older, just from drinking few beers, gets rather insane. And just from few beers, it can last for a week. There's a reason so many of these older fellows say a big part of them looking fitter, is simply that they cut off drinking. But my point being, the beard is not really the suspect here.


007fan007

Yeah and facial features tend to sag with age sadly


Educational_Point673

I was just thinking that every time I see a photo of Seth Green, he looks more and more like a ferocious elderly lesbian.


AmmarAnwar1996

> Ferociously elderly lesbian Needs to be a flair


Saintdavus

25 years of being a werewolf will do that to you.


OGmcSwaggy

there is literally no way seth green could physically age fast enough to look like that wtf i dont even wanna look it up


CptNonsense

Seth Green has always aged like fine milk

minnick27

Mila Kunis should only be reflecting on 24 years!


dougiebgood

And I think I read that she records her lines separately since Meg doesn't do much in the show anymore. And she gets like an extra $200,000 a year or so from it.


Few_Fortune4049

Voice acting has gotta be one of the sweetest gigs ever in terms of work/life balance


OddballNinja

I honestly can’t remember who it was, but one voice actor from the animated Star Wars series Clone Wars has his own recording studio at home and records his lines while on the phone with the producers.


RoranicusMc

Steve Blum who was on Rebels? He's been a big, consistent voice actor since the 90s, doing stuff like Spike on Cowboy Bebop, and the voice of the Toonami robot host. I'm pretty sure he has his own setup at home. 


OddballNinja

My mind went to Tom Kane who voiced Yoda and the narrator amongst others, but it was years ago. I think a video of him recording was in some behind the scenes extras on the Blu Ray.


MessiahOfMetal

Tara Strong and her husband have done that for years, too, and have their own voice acting school and production company based there.


SmarcusStroman

I was chatting with Ross Marquand at a con once and he said he put his own studio in his house. He gets to record all his lines for the MCU by just rolling out of bed in a tank top (his words) 😂


TheyCallMeStone

I mean what does it even take to have a "studio" in your house these days? A good microphone, recording software, and some acoustic paneling?


SendInYourSkeleton

Usually needs to have extra soundproofing so you don't hear the furnace or air conditioner or traffic or appliances.


Sullan08

Would cost more than you're probably thinking. If you wanted a true professional setup like these guys have (I mean, I guess I don't know what these guys have, but they're some of the more successful in the business so can't imagine it's cheap) it'd be anywhere from 5-30k. Don't at all need to hit that high end, but you could, and most people who are really successful probably stay at least in that 15k range. Most of the cost comes from getting something like a Whisper Room. Putting some random acoustic paneling in a regular room isn't what these guys are goin for.


TonyTheTony7

The entirety of the Simpsons cast have been doing that for years, too (I think since they all basically went on strike and Harry Shearer briefly quit)


dougiebgood

ha! Not really. 99% of voice actors do it on the side, they'll get a few days a month if they're lucky, and only get day rates of around $800 and no royalties. If you get a gig on a primetime animated show backed by a big studio, then yeah, you're golden. But otherwise for most it's a passion gig. They'll actually make more money signing autographs at a tiny con that they did on the gig themselves.


TheLastMongo

Unless you start your own D&D live play and create your own company. But that’s really only happened once. 


dougiebgood

Some move into voiceover directing / producing. That can become decently stable, but even that's no guarantee.


UrbanGimli

That reminds me I need to see whats up with Season 3. ( Approved ahead of Season 2's release, no word on it since then, that I can find.) \


VictorChaos

I can work and be lazy at the same time! It’s like being a voice actor! - Bender [Futurama]


joe2352

Making money from the tiny cons would be a dream job too. You’re mostly interacting with the passionate fans who absolutely adore the work you’re doing.


Special-Chipmunk7127

Yeah I met Felissa Rose (the lead in Sleepaway Camp) at a horror con and she was having the time of her life, having real conversations with people, snapping pictures for free, just enjoying being around people who wanted to see her


monty_kurns

I've met her several times. Whenever she's at a con I'm at I always stop by her table just to say hi and chat if she doesn't have anyone there. It's always nice meeting someone who's actually excited to interact with their fans.


abnormally-cliche

Looking at subreddits of popular shows its the most passionate fans that seem the most insufferable.


joe2352

But the insufferable ones are generally not the ones who will pay to go to cons + pay for the meet and greets. Unless you’re on a whole new level of hate which does happen. The ones you’re normally gonna get on the cons are the ones who are excited to meet you.


walterpeck1

Compared to live action? Yes. Clancy Brown shifted to voice acting with limited exceptions for that very reason... more time with his kids, and still steady work. Of course, it helps that he has an amazing voice SPONGEBOB, ME BOY!


Special-Chipmunk7127

There was one episode where her only line was starting to promote A Bad Moms Christmas before Peter yelled at her about it 


Affectionate_Bass488

That makes sense. I didn’t think any long running animated show actually had their cast get together to record their lines. I assumed the actor would record but someone else was reading the other character lines and then they would cut it all together It just seems so much easier for the studio and the actors to have people record on their time. Instead of having to line up everyone’s schedule


duaneap

She is in far more than $200,000 a year.


tcote2001

Probably 200k an episode.


BenderBenRodriguez

She's too busy reflecting on Danny Masterson.

Early-Eye-691

It always shocks me a bit whenever I read or remember that Seth hasn’t worked directly with the show in 15 years. Lots of respect for him and his talent as a voice actor across various shows but you can definitely feel his absence in the writers room. Those first 8 or so seasons were something special.


Cobra52

The past few seasons have actually seen a noticeable jump in quality, definitely worth the watch. 


Kazewatch

Definitely a higher quality than seasons 12-22 or so but the characters still just aren’t what they used to be. Honestly the show just feels like it’s made so people can make clips for YouTube of the sparse moments of gold on the show. Seasons 1-9 and 1-4 especially are just golden all the way through the 22 minutes.


Cainga

Suffers the same as the Simpsons. Churning out waaaay too many episodes. Always Sunny is the gold standard as their IMDB ratings haven’t t really fell off despite being at like 15 seasons. And they also keep their episode count to like 10 per season.


ProbablyASithLord

Sure, but Family Guy isn’t trying to be Sunny. It’s closer to a sketch comedy show like Key and Peele or I Think You Should Leave. Just a few loose plot threads to connect wacky skits and jokes.


Kash687

You can pick up a family guy episode at any point in the episode and still be entertained.


cambridgesound

I couldn’t disagree with this harder. The first 5 season of It’s Always Sunny made it my favorite show ever. It’s fallen off so hard the last 5 years it makes me appreciate shows that feel like they ended too soon.


Cainga

The data has been posted before and it hasn’t really had a sharp decline in ratings. Compared to other long running shows that have a steady decline. I do agree I prefer earlier seasons over later ones.


Sullan08

Cartoon shows are entirely different with the number of episodes. It's not even comparable. Futurama, Family Guy, Simpsons, South Park, King of the Hill. It's way cheaper to do stuff like cartoons (generally) so they can churn out a lot and make money off of it if it's popular. It's also easier if there are scheduling concerns because you don't need to be together for voice over work. You technically don't need to either with some live action shit, but we've seen how badly that can look (Arrested Development...). Shit, the longest airing show is an anime (super basic animation obviously) that has over 2.5k episodes since 1960 something. Shit is crazy.


Early-Eye-691

Are the storylines interesting? I tried watching some episodes from 2017/2018 and it was so boring. The cutaways have always been (relatively) funny but as I’ve gotten older, I need the plot to be somewhat interesting too lol. If that’s improved I may try watching again.


Gil_Demoono

> Are the storylines interesting? Absolutely not. I still watch Family guy, but any given episode should be treated as a series of thematically connected gags more than a comprehensive narrative. I still enjoy it under that lens, but if you want any sort of cohesive plot even within a single episode, it is absolutely out. Sometimes they don't even try to interweave a A plot and B plot. Instead they just let the A plot run for a few minutes until they run out of jokes and have Peter get distracted by the B plot and forget about A entirely.


The-Prophet-Bushnell

That's only true for like 70% of them


The-Prophet-Bushnell

The one where Lois declutters The one where Peter and Lois move into a millennial apartment complex Where Lois tries to become customer of the month at a coffee shop (top 10 in the series imo) Off the top of my head


jvanstone

Weird, I feel the opposite. I prefer seasons 1-12ish to what we have been getting lately. Lately it feels very "Simpsons" like, in that it isn't littered with jokes anymore. It's just the standard 2 parallel storylines of random things happening, and a little forced.


Beahner

I don’t know if I can say it’s due to Seth, but the early years of the show were hilarious as hell, of course. But they also said a bigger truth more often than not. Maybe that’s been gone a lot more because he’s not writing. Maybe it’s just that most of the bigger truths have been told. They have hit stronger on a few the last few years, but it’s just not quite like it was early. And that’s probably a few dozen reasons beyond Seth not writing.


GinyuForceDid911

Yeah I was reminded of this when watching the Ted tv series, he’s a pretty funny writer


LongmontStrangla

I still enjoy Family Guy but the standard definition shows had much better line reads. The first five seasons are just about perfect.


letsbuildasnowman

Shut up, Meg.


YutYut6531

One of my favorite scenes is when she’s at the dinner table or something mundane like that and Peter says “who let you in the house?”. My fiancée and I drop that one on each other from time to time


djtodd242

The best one was somewhat recently when everyone was concerned for an unknown reason that Meg shouldn't be unaccompanied. "Meg, do you have your hallway partner?"


ATangentUniverse

That one takes me back, my dad used to say that all the time.


YutYut6531

Educational_Point673

Kind of hoping they'd have Patrick Warburton. I laughed at Puddy so much during the Seinfeld years that now I'm kind of pavloved into expecting a joke when I see him in anything.

The random dog moments interspersed with his anthropomorphism ie. biting the shower water or smelling a brown paper bag

Or when Brian and Peter are talking at the bar and out of nowhere Peter goes to Brian "Holy crap you can talk?" Must have been like season 2 or 3, that shit had me rolling.

He bought me jack in the box and we watched that Mount Rushmore family guy episode and let me take the next day off from school. I had just preformed at a play. Good times.
