Apple TV+’s Girls State and HBO’s Ren Faire scored three nominations apiece to lead all broadcast nominees announced Thursday for the 18th Cinema Eye Honors. The group, which recognizes the year’s outstanding nonfiction and documentary films and TV series, also revealed the 16-film longlist for its annual Audience Choice Prize, won last year by National Geographic’s Bobi Wine: The People’s President, which went on to get nominated for the Documentary Feature Oscar.
The past six winners of the Best Documentary Feature Oscar — this year’s winner 20 Days in Mariupol, Navalny, Summer of Soul, My Octopus Teacher, American Factory and Free Solo — were all Audience Choice Prize nominees. Fans voting will whittle the list to 10 beginning next week, with winners in that and all categories to be announced at an awards ceremony January 9 at the New York Academy of Medicine in East Harlem.

Many of the recurring faces on "The Simpsons" have the same voice: Harry Shearer. Alongside Hank Azaria, Shearer does more than double duty in playing the series' supporting cast. As a testament to his range, his roles run the gamut from nice guy Ned Flanders to milquetoast Principal Skinner (don't say Armin Tamzarian) to evil Mr. Charles Montgomery Burns, owner of the Springfield Nuclear Plant and Homer Simpson's boss.
Shearer is the definitive voice of Mr. Burns (he's been doing it for 30+ seasons), but he wasn't the first actor to voice the character. That would be the late Christopher Collins, who was briefly part of the "Simpsons" cast during its first season, which aired from 1989 to 1990. Collins voiced Burns in the following episodes: "Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire," "Homer's Odyssey," "There's No Disgrace Like Home," and "The Telltale Head."
Shearer took over in the season 1 episode "Homer's Night Out.

Fans of The Simpsons are shocked by how different Mr. Burns sounds in the latest episode of the series. On May 12, in the episode titled “The Tipping Point,” Homer loses his mind over tipping culture run amok. Mr. Burns, Homer’s greedy boss, makes a familiar appearance though his voice sounded very different. Fans took to social media to express their disdain and concern for the change in vocal tone. “Burns’ voice is just brutal man. Let these people retire in peace,” said one fan. “I was not prepared for how bad this would be,” said another. “It sounds like a fan dub.” Mr. Burns, a series regular though he does not appear in every episode, is currently voiced by Harry Shearer, who is 80 years old. Shearer succeeded Christopher Collins who originally voiced the evil, green-suit-wearing character. Shearer, who joined The Simpsons in 1989, still voices multiple roles including Ned Flanders,...

The character of Dr. Marvin Monroe (Harry Shearer) first appeared in the "The Simpsons" episode "There's No Disgrace Like Home". He would show up during the show's early seasons when Homer (Dan Castellaneta) was preoccupied with his family's perceived normal-ness. Homer looked at his home and saw the suburban ideals of a nuclear family slowly exploding. To combat this, Homer pawned the family TV -- an object he saw as problematic anyway -- and bought therapy sessions with Dr. Marvin Monroe, a family psychiatrist who promised "family bliss or double your money back." It seems the Simpsons were so dysfunctional that even Dr. Monroe couldn't cure them (a shock therapy session goes horribly awry).
Dr. Monroe typically appeared whenever "The Simpsons" required the word of a psychiatric specialist to aid in plot points. He was one of the show's many regular supporting characters, relegated to the background. However, the character...

Voice actor David Kaye still remembers getting the news he'd been cast on "Transformers: Animated." Two weeks after a callback where he read for multiple characters, he got a call from his agent. Kaye, who was driving in downtown LA, answered his phone and heard the news: he'd got the part ... of Optimus Prime. Kaye's response as he swerved his car: "Who?!"
While Kaye had read for Optimus Prime (and noticed voice director Susan Blu liked what he was doing), he walked into the audition expecting to get a different part. The part, in fact, that was furthest from Optimus Prime — Megatron. At the time, Kaye had been voicing Megatron for about a decade, first in "Beast Wars."
During the 1990s and 2000s, Kaye was a staple of Canada's voice-acting pool. Mainframe Entertainment, based in Vancouver, developed "Beast Wars" and recruited local talent, Kaye among them. A few years later,...

In 1984, a lot of laws about what was and wasn't allowed in children's TV programming began to loosen. Throughout the decade, more and more companies became incredibly brazen about including advertising content directly into their TV shows, transforming many shows into 30-minute commercials for toys. An '80s child would watch a show, knowing they could soon hound their parents to buy them the toy counterparts of their favorite characters. This branding became deeply insidious, and many children of the 1980s grew up with a deep and abiding nostalgia for their favorite toy ads. Artistry, character, writing, storytelling, and mythology were all distant, tertiary concerns during this era, and the bulk of animated shows from the '80s are deeply, deeply terrible as a result.

Netflix has renewed Phil Rosenthal’s food and travel show “Somebody Feed Phil” for its seventh season.
The series follows Rosenthal, best known as the creator and showrunner of “Everybody Loves Raymond,” as he travels to different cities throughout the world and experiences different cuisines and cultures.
In an interview with Variety, Rosenthal explained how his comedy background informs his work on “Somebody Feed Phil”: “What I borrow from sitcoms is I’m always looking for characters.

The animation studio Illumination has made a feature film based on the 1985 Nintendo game "Super Mario Bros." and every decision they have made has been baffling. Making the film at all seemed like a dodgy proposition from the start, as the last attempt to make a Mario movie -- a strange dinosaur-themed dystopian movie with Dennis Hopper, Bob Hoskins, and John Leguizamo -- resulted in critical panning and box office losses. This author feels that 1993's "Super Mario Bros." was a perfectly entertaining, delightfully weird, high-octane version of the game, but few agree. Now, 29 years later, attempt number two has arrived.
A second strange choice for Aaron Horvath's and Michael Jelenic's "The Super Mario Bros. Movie" was its all-star American voice cast. For many years, in the video games, Mario had been voiced by Charles Martinet, who also voiced series staples Luigi, Wario, and Waluigi. Martinet gave Mario a high-pitched,...

CNN is tweaking its programming recipe for noted food author Alison Roman.
After unveiling an alliance with the culinary influencer that would have put a new original series with her at the center on streaming hub CNN+, the Warner Bros. Discovery-backed outlet will launch a program from her on its flagship cable outlet this fall.
A four-episode series, “(More Than) A Cooking Show,” featuring Roman learning about ingredients, traveling, and trying recipes, will debut on CNN in the fall.

The five-episode “Somebody Feed Phil” Season 5, which debuts May 25, was filmed back to back with Season 6, which also consists of five episodes.
“We filmed 10 episodes in the sweet spot between Delta and Omicron. Remember that?

Documentarian Morgan Neville didn’t know Anthony Bourdain personally, but he felt the globe-trotting chef and author was a kindred spirit. “In many ways, we were doing the same kind of work,” says the Oscar-winning director, whose raw and personal documentary “Roadrunner: A Film About Anthony Bourdain” premieres Friday at the Tribeca Festival ahead of a theatrical opening on July 16.
In Neville’s eyes, Bourdain was “this champion of the democratization of food, of treating street foods seriously and ethnic foods seriously, breaking down the border of Michelin star cooking.” With “Roadrunner,” Neville wanted to explore that adventurous side of the man who traveled hundreds of days every year, from Iran to the Congo to L.A.’s Koreatown. But, he says, there was also a question mark over his life: “How does that happen? How does a guy like that kill himself?”

In recognition of another banner year for non-fiction cinema, which has been reflected in box office spikes around key titles this year, the Ida expanded the number of nominees in the best feature and short films categories to 10 films.
In “creative recognition” fields, winners and nominees were announced. “Distant Constellation” won the cinematography prize, while “Minding the Gap” took editing. “The Other Side of Everything” won the writing award, and the music category saw a tie, between “Bisbee ’17” and “Hale County This Morning, This Evening.”

The TV Academy showered Anthony Bourdain with posthumous Emmys this evening, including Best Nonfiction Writing and Best Informational Series or Special, for CNN’s Anthony Bourdain Parts Unknown.
By the time the dust settled, Bourdain’s program had bagged five Emmys – the most for one year in the series history.
Producer Lydia Tenaglia noted it was Bourdain’s first best-writing statuette.
“Tony was nominated for this Emmy many times, but it had always eluded him. So it is with tremendous bittersweetness that I accept it on his behalf,” she said pointedly, accepting Bourdain’s writing win.
Describing Bourdain’s writing as “always fiercely intelligent, very real, no bullshit” she nonetheless said he would have thanked his longtime lit agent, CNN execs, etc.
“Actually, he wouldn’t have done that at all,” she continued, giving attendees whiplash and something to think about.
“But he’s really off on a journey to Parts Unknown,...

After premiering current Emmy nominees “The Handmaid’s Tale” and “The Sinner” in 2017, this year’s Tribeca TV Festival is looking to make an impact at the end of summer 2018. Featured in its second edition are new season premieres of Showtime’s “Ray Donovan,” the CBS drama “Madam Secretary,” Crackle’s “StartUp,” HBO’s “Tracey Ullman’s Show” — including a conversation between the star and Meryl Streep — as well as the 20th season of “Law & Order: Svu.”
Despite the excitement surrounding those series, one premiere is likely to stand out from the rest: The festival will host the world premiere of CNN’s “Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown” featuring Bourdain and W. Kamau Bell in Kenya. The first episode of Season 12 is a special presentation: an extended cut of the final episode finished with Anthony Bourdain’s full involvement and the last to feature his narration. Following the screening, Bell...

Coca-Cola is spreading its #MakeItHappy campaign across multiple platforms. The latest creator joining in on the quest to make the Internet a more positive place is Ryan Seacrest, who teamed up with Kurt Hugo Schneider and a combination traditional and new media performers for a music video called "Come On #MakeItHappy".
The three-and-a-half minute video is directed by Schneider, who has more than five million subscribers on YouTube, and hosted on Seacrest's YouTube channel. There's plenty of talent in front of the camera, too. Traditional media stars Jordin Sparks, Janel Parrish, Victoria Justice, Bea Miller, and Nolan Gould appear, as do online content creators Jack & Jack, Andrea Russett, Brent Rivera, Sam Tsui and Chris Collins. Schneider and Seacrest lead this group through an "Uptown Funk"-esque song that spreads the titular campaign's positive message.

The bulk of The Simpsons’ expanded universe is voiced by four people: Hank Azaria, Nancy Cartwright, Dan Castellaneta, and Harry Shearer. This article will focus on the second main-voice actor who does not voice a member of the Simpsons’ household: a founding member of Spın̈al Tap and former cast member on Saturday Night Live, Harry Shearer.
Shearer has been on The Simpsons since the very beginning, voicing neighbor-ino Ned Flanders in the very first episode “Simpsons Roasting On An Open Fire.” All told, Shearer voices over 180 characters in Springfield: some of those characters are one-offs, meant to deliver one line and then move on; some were created as one-offs, but were brought back time and time again; and some have grown with The Simpsons, both the TV family and the TV show.
These 10 Secondary Simpsons’ Characters Voiced by Harry Shearer are characters who rarely appear for...

The bulk of The Simpsons’ expanded universe is voiced by four people: Hank Azaria, Nancy Cartwright, Dan Castellaneta, and Harry Shearer. Each has their main characters they bring life to every recording session, but each also is asked to provide distinct voices and personalities for another dozen (or several dozen) characters. And no one is asked to do that more than the star of such films as The Birdcage, Mystery Men, and The Smurfs, Hank Azaria.
Hank Azaria is not just the voice of Springfield residents Apu Nahasapeemapetilon, Chief Clancy Wiggum, and Moe Syzslak: he is credited with voicing more than 200 Springfieldites since his first appearance as Moe (redubbing the voiceover originally done by former cast member Christopher Collins) in “Simpsons Roasting On An Open Fire.” Some of those characters are one-offs, meant to deliver one line and then move on; some were created as one-offs, but were brought...
