Does this prove that voice actors are not, in fact, underpaid? It’s really easy

For generic characters yeah but its almost impossible to find another voice for someone like homer, Peter Griffin. No scratch that its impossible. You might come close but it will never sound right

Not really a spoiler. It’s just a bunch of lines on a page, I’m sure he didn’t need more than one take for most of them. It’s the most basic shit in the world if you’re an actual, trained actor (which most VAs are not)

You're describing both the voice actor switch and the show itself.

I genuinely cannot keep up with modern video games anymore. I thought people were talking about that monkey dark souls game as the GOTY, then it was that nude Korean woman with the sword game that was being clamored as GOTY, and now whatever the fuck this game is, is being clamored as GOTY. I can't keep up.
I visited /v/ about a week ago, and they have a reaaaally good term for it called 'FOTM' (Flavor of the Month), and that perfectly captures this sort of phenomenon. Playing the game for a month, screaming that it's the GOAT for a month, and then discarding it for a new game everyone is playing and scream it's the GOAT, ad infinitum.

A medium that has people like that can't evolve at all, which is why /v/ is filled with manchildren.

Every medium is subject to FOTM. FOTM for film right now is 28 Years Later. In my opinion, and some might disagree because its not the standard usage for it, but FOTM can also include things like "hidden gems" and other older media products, if they're being dug up and promoted by some influencer or taste maker, for example RLM do a re:View of some obscure old movie and all of a sudden you see a bunch of people parroting it as the GOAT. Retro video games were often subject to the same phenomenon where say Game Grumps or some other popular let's player or streamer would play a game, say it's good, then the value of the game would shoot up in price.

Now that doesn't mean that the FOTM thing isn't good, it's just that usually it's being overrated due to hype. That's why years ago I started not paying too close attention to discussion surrounding anything I like, whether it be film, video games, music, etc. If I notice something is getting hype, I'll make a note of it then watch/listen/play it at some point, but I try to always set my expectations as close to zero as I can.

The issue isn't really the medium itself, it's the consumers and the discussion surrounding the medium.

I don't get actors like this.
It's one thing if you get the "Is that my voice? Ew" effect and try to stay away from your own work.
It's completely different when you're actively ignorant of it.
Why get into acting at all if, when people are clamoring about how genius the show / game / film is, you still don't give a shit?

I’ve never ever heard a good SpongeBob SquarePants impression. Or any good impression of the main characters of that show for that matter. Voice acting is not easy, no. If that was the case there wouldn’t be abysmal voices in media.

Stupid take. It’s also a pretty divisive movie so it especially doesn’t fit the FOTM bill.

Those short hours are the issue, the dollars per hour are immense but voicefags refuse to accept it will only ever be a side gig for most people and they will need a real regular job to supplement it.

actors tend to do that for things they don't really want to deal with, same as any other contractor. They try to go for a price where the employer will tell them no so they can walk away with no one holding a grudge.
If you get the money then hey great you got the money, if you don't then you don't have to do something you really didn't feel like doing.
Just because something seems easy doesn't mean someone isn't tired of doing it.

I didn't because it's all melodramatic soap opera shit, i've seen/read it a million times before.
It's just one inciting incident among so many others.
