20 years ago this project that shall remain nameless premiered on this date & forever changed the trajectory of my life. Thank you to the best cast of weirdos an idiot like me could be apart of. I got a chance to rock w/ the best. Forever grateful. 🙏🏽❤️
Hey thank you
#Speechless
fans. I wish I had something more encouraging to say. But when a show with such good will & genuine love behind it gets the axe, it’s hard. Thank you for your generosity & continued support & hopefully see you soon. ~C 💔
Again, this is NOT what black voice actors are asking. No stereotyping/degrading/appropriating of our culture is what we wanted. WE ALSO DONT WANT YOUR EXISTING JOBS! YOU SHOULD’VE HIRED US IN THE 1st FUCKING PLACE. Put us

Hard scene to watch knowing the fate of the show. Some of our crew cried while we shot this scene. Definite long shot but Emmy voters should remember how good the writing & performances were on this show. From London to Graduation. Remember

As our show
#Speechless
has ended it’s UK run & I’ve gotten the chance to reflect, the thing I feared the most is what I’ll miss the most. Memorizing both roles. Not easy! Basically one huge monologue. A very schizophrenic way of acting. Here’s a fun example:

Yo! At the risk of speaking for a lot of black folk who do voiceover work, WE’RE NOT ASKING FOR THIS! Now having the opportunity to do a network animated series for over 30 years, that would be great. NOT THIS! 🤦🏽♂️
One of the many fun parts of doing

. It’s improvised so no one knows what the other is going to say & YOU don’t know what you’ll say! But I know I can pass the ball & someone will hit the 3 or dunk! Jr & Dangle set me up, swish, & then I set up Weigle. Dunk!
Wow! Happy Anniversary

He couldn’t publicly denounce a white supremacy group on Nat’l television. Embarrassing. That is ALL I need to know about him, his ‘party’ & the people that STILL support him. Let’s go vote.
