fox It's seen in Europe, Africa and beyond Debuting in December 1989, the series helped fledgling Fox establish itself as a bold alternative to the big three networks and has become the longest-running sitcom ever (eclipsing the 14 years of "The Adventures of Ozzie & Harriet") There's slightly less running time (standard for TV shows as commercials and promotions have increased) and more characters to accommodate, Castellaneta said m 14 "I was trying to find something I was more comfortable with that had more power to it," he said It's his third trophy for the animated series but still welcome, especially since it's been 10 years since the last one He was part of Fox's "The Tracey Ullman Show" (1987-90) when Groening whipped up brief animation fillers that introduced the Simpson family to television EDT Sunday â€â€? and maybe the fact that two of the characters he voices, Homer and Krusty, were featured The Chicago native, who grew up with a knack for mimicry and was part of the famed Second City comedy troupe, has been heard in a variety of other TV shows and in movies and has made on-camera appearances in "That '70s Show" and elsewhere "In a nutshell, I don't agree," Castellaneta said "People will say to me, 'Boy, I'm glad they replaced the guy that was there that first season " â€â€?â€â€?â€â€? On the Net: http://www He'd enjoy more screen time but is aware that few projects are as remarkable as "The Simpsons Castellaneta happily re-creates Krusty's raspy lament: "All this time I thought I was a self-hating Jew, and now I'm just an anti-Semite!" That's the wicked wit routinely found on "The Simpsons," even deep into the life of the series com " No one could have predicted the ride would be so long or so spectacular ' That was me!"

"drop the voice down 'Simpsons' Actor Is an Emmy Winner Aug 18, 3:38 PM EST Ask Dan Castellaneta to describe how he sounds off-screen and this is what he offers: sort of deadpan, shy of nasal, with a standard Midwestern tilt But he acknowledges the series based on executive producer Matt Groening's characters has changed over the years "Instead of just being in the Simpson's world, it's expanded out to Springfield," he said, and the reality envelope, such as it is with a family that's bright yellow, has been pushed a bit more His award for outstanding voiceover performance was in a category announced before the Sept It begins its 16th season Nov 19 Emmy ceremony I think it organically changes to stay fresh," the 45-year-old Castellaneta said Burns), may be a bit less enthralled: He recently said he was unhappy with the show's quality compared to years past There are actors who have very big careers but have never been associated with a hit of this magnitude But he found it couldn't encompass the tone changes of Homer's runaway emotions and was fatiguing for extended recording sessions "Matt Groening was there with a drawing of this family and said, 'Can you give me a voice for this guy?'" Castellaneta recalled In one story line, Herschel Krustofsky, aka Krusty, is stunned to learn he's ineligible for the Springfield Jewish community's walk of fame because he's never had a bar mitzvah He's also gotten more traditional honors, including an Emmy last week " "I came to realize it's very rare for an actor to be part of anything that's incredibly successful He employed a growly "kind of Walter Matthau" approach, he said Given that Castellaneta routinely creates vocal magic, bringing alive lovable lug Homer, befuddled Grampa and hellish clown Krusty, what did it take for TV academy voters to listen up again and take notice? He speculates it was particularly sparkling writing on the episode for which he won â€â€? which repeats 8 p " The change in Homer's diction created a minor media myth "I think Harry's issue is that the show isn't as grounded as it was in the first three or four seasons, that it's gotten crazy or a little more madcap Since Castellaneta and Julie Kavner, another cast member, were on hand, they were asked to provide the voices of Homer and wife Marge Castellaneta was there before the start But like a plain brown bag filled with surprises, here's what he's pulled out of that voice in his years with "The Simpsons": Homer Simpson, Krusty the clown, Grampa Simpson, Barney Gumble, groundskeeper Willy and more "The Simpsons" remains funny and surprising, he said, adding: "I believe the show still breaks the mold in terms of storytelling org/hall/mem/patsy-cline Hughes was a gifted musician and entrepreneur; Copas was an Opry veteran whose career had enjoyed a resurgence with the 1960 hit "Alabam"; and Hawkins was a honky-tonk singer who never got to see his biggest hit, "Lonesome 7-7203," top the charts She signed her first recording contract in 1954 with Four Star Records "You can put her up against any artist now and she would blow a lot of those away "Her voice was so powerful and amazing," Rimes said Desperate for money, she signed with Decca in 1960 and agreed to record "I Fall to Pieces," a tune chosen for her by producer Owen Bradley that featured backing by the Jordanaires, best known for their work with Elvis Presley Patsy Cline Remains Influential Voice Mar 4, 3:48 PM EST Forty years after country singer Patsy Cline's career was cut short in a plane crash near the marshy banks of the Tennessee River, fans leave plastic flowers and written messages at the crash site "I wish I could of met you, Patsy," one says (Her husband, Harland Howard, co-wrote "I Fall to Pieces "When it didn't come in, I knew something had happened d "My mother and I went to the airport to meet the plane," recalled Kathy Hughes, who lost her father, Copas, and husband, Hughes, in the crash " LeAnn Rimes, who drew comparisons to Cline for her 1996 hit "Blue," a song written specifically for Cline but which she never recorded, said the late singer was one of her earliest and strongest influences Cline's influence continues long after she expressed longing and heartache in classics such as "Crazy" and "I Fall to Pieces The association lasted six years but was a source of frustration for Cline, who claimed the label swindled her out of earnings and gave her substandard material to record "Patsy fought him (Bradley) every step of the way," recalled Jan Howard, an Opry member and friend of Cline's html She was voted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 1973 " Hundreds of fans gathered in the western Tennessee town of Camden last weekend to celebrate Cline, whom friends recalled as a bold, plainspoken woman who loved to laugh and addressed everyone as "Hoss" or "Chief Her life was one of hardship, her career marked by stops and starts "She set a standard to which country vocalists of both genders aspire," he said The song was an early expression of the Nashville sound, which incorporated lush arrangements with strings and backing vocals to expand country's appeal , she dropped out of school at 15 to support her family after her father deserted them lang, Natalie Cole, Diana Krall and Terri Clark " The event was less than 5 miles from where the private plane carrying Cline and three others â€â€? manager and pilot Randy Hughes and fellow Grand Ole Opry stars Cowboy Copas and Hawkshaw Hawkins â€â€? went down in a thunderstorm March 5, 1963, while returning from a benefit in Kansas City Cline was only 30 when she died â€â€?â€â€?â€â€?
