I noticed they're doing new episodes. Does anyone know who's going to replace the guy who voiced Hank Murphy?

[Anonymous]

Vin Deisel.

As far as I can tell, there are 5 more episodes with Goz as Murphy, and after that who knows?

[Protoclown]

I'm sure they found SOMEONE who sounds more or less like him. I figure that's why it was taking so long to put out new episodes.

What I really want to know is WHY THE FUCK isn't there a DVD of this scheduled to come out?? I can only imagine it has something to do with copyright stuff involving the original show.

[budgetjiggalo]

Adult Swim has a rule about how many episodes have to be out to make a dvd, and the new ones that air should be enough to put it over, I think it's like 25 episodes.

Al Roker.

[Rongi]

Don't tease me like that, milhouse :(

Yeah, I'd like to see a fucking dvd too. It's been too long. FUCK ADULT SWIM >:

[Drev]

The guy I think is best suited to doing Hank Murphy now is the guy who played Rip on The Ripping Friends. The show sucked, but he sounded like Hank Murphy to me.

[OrganSplitter]

It was the same guy

[Esuohlim]

NO IT WASN'T

[Cap'n Crunch]

The last season of Sealab started out pretty good, and then it got shitty. I hope these aren't the same.

I believe there are more episodes of Sealab 2021 than there are Aqua Teen Hunger Force. So I very much doubt that has anything to do with it.

[Jixby Phillips]

The rule is that there needs to be 24 episodes before they can start planning for a DVD release. Aqua Teen Hunger Force has 30+ episodes. Sealab reached 24 episodes with it's last batch of new episodes. The Brak show also recently reached 24 episodes. My guess is the next two Adult Swim releases will be Brak & Sealab, then another Space Ghost & Aqua Teen release, and so on and so on (and eventually Birdman when they actually get enough episodes)

[Freaky Sheek]

There is a 24 episode limit apperently.

The next set due out is the more recent series, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, the first of the new Adult Swim programs to reach a full season of 24 episodes. Soon after, Sealab 2021 will reach the 24-episode mark, making it eligible for DVD release. Other Adult Swim series, such as the recent addition, Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law, and the returning Space Ghost spin-off, The Brak Show, are expected to follow as soon as they reach the 24-episode mark.

I also found this from a Mike Lazzo interview its ten pages, but I just put the info about the dvd.

IGNFF: Ah, so there's an Adult Swim DVD coming up...

LAZZO: Oh yes! Aqua Teen and Space Ghost.

IGNFF: But no Sealab...

LAZZO: Not yet. We're waiting for a few more episodes. Because Aqua Teen is in production of 24, they know that they can get one out and still have other material. With Sealab, we've got to finish, really, the first season.

IGNFF: So technically we're still in the first season...

LAZZO: That's right. Technically, these are the last four in that – so they're not even completed. And then those will be released as well. The other interesting thing is that none of the voice talent ever reads. Dave is always Space Ghost, Matt is always Zorak – so that's how that rolls. And they won't let me do any of them.

EDIT: Damn, beaten to it. I guess if you want to delete this, go ahead.

[Lye]

what happend to the guy that plays Hank Murphy?

[Protoclown]

He died in September. Of cancer, I think. He was in his 70s or 80s.

[OrganSplitter]

Yeah the Ripping Friends guy and Hank are the same voice look it up

[Esuohlim]

OMG GUESS WHAT, THEY AREN'T. LOOK IT UP
