Harry Shearer & Dan Castellaneta Do Iconic Voices From The Simpsons | Late Night with Conan O’Brien

[@johnnys8393]

That is so surreal to see real people but hear character voices in their purest form. Dan and Harry are absolute geniuses.

@@candyOrangeGray If being good at maths is your definition of a genius, you're very narrow-minded. There are many kinds of intelligence.

Really, viewers do not care as long as they're enjoying the show.

@Sketchy Stuff It's worse than not making progress... we're moving backwards. This isn't anything like dated, repugnant practices like black or yellowface, and I never felt there was anything remotely demeaning in the portrayal of any Simpsons characters. Yes, Apu is unquestionably a stereotype as a convenience store owner, but he also has a PhD, and he's no goofier than any of the other characters. Maybe it would have been better to integrate new characters into the show instead of compromising the integrity of it, I don't know.

never realized shearer voices burns AND smithers, i’m amazed by how many scenes on the simpsons are just a voice actor talking to themself

[@damanmax]

When Conan was a writer on the show the show was so clever and hilarious. I miss those earlier episodes

[@mattspicer8853]

This is one of the best clips on the internet. I’m convinced.

"Mr. Burns, I'm sorry I ate all your tongue depressors." "That's all right, Homer, I didn't have any." "Oh...DOH!" ...man, I could listen to Dan Castellaneta being Homer Simpson and other Simpsons characters as well as Harry Shearer being Monty Burns all day if I could.

THE TALENT THAT THESE MEN HAVE 😍 iconic voices that bring me back to my childhood!

[@brianjl7477]

Classic clip with amazing talent!

[@Snake-bj2gl]

Harry Shearer also does Ned Flanders.

[@Raz_bu]

The improv. Is just on spot.... i love it

[@NikhilKoparkarmusic]

And to think Harry was in Spinal Tap as well!! Insane talent!

[@debgorman5850]

All the actors on the Simpsons are INCREDIBLE!

[@antoniojones5340]

Those improvs were just perfect!

[@Tommyr]

I love voice over people! I always wanted to do that.

[@Chriswallace0405]

Money for old rope apparently. Good money

[@PhoeniksStorm]

Whenever Dan does his voices it looks so effortlessly. He puts all his energy into the voices. His face barely changes, it damn near looks like someone else is doing the voices and he just sitting there moving his mouth haphazard

[@masterfarr8265]

1:24 his laugh XD

[@tanisdonnelly3337]

I love how humble and appreciative Dan is of people clapping for his impression of Homer

[@tommyt1971]

Wow, Kenny Brocklestein does the best Harry Shearer impression I've ever heard.

[@MindMasterDan]

All the Simpsons cast especially the 3 men are just legendary voice actors but out of everyone and from any show ever..... Dan's Castellaneta is the BEST!!!!!!!

[@dodgersdoon1130]

The voices are just too perfect
