Who is Cricket Leigh? I can't answer that question fully because I am not familiar with her or her resume. I've only been introduced to her voice in the show, Avatar: The Last Airbender as Mai. Mai is a minor character in the show, so she gets very little screen time. But the time she gets is sufficient enough for me to type a small review. Mai's character is one who's cut-off from her emotions and has a gloomy personality. Leigh does a wonderful job in accenting those qualities with her voice. That tells me that she's a talented voice-actress. Later in the series, Mai's character improves slightly and Leigh shifts with that change. Again, proving her worth as a gifted performer.
As I said, I don't know much about Cricket Leigh, but from what I've seen in Avatar: The Last Airbender, she does a quality job. I hope for all the success in Leigh's life. Keep up the good work, Cricket Leigh.

I haven't seen every piece of work that Dante has accomplished. So, this review won't be an unabridged synopsis of this talented actor. Instead, I will speak briefly of what I've most familiar with about him.
I remember watching Dante in Hook, where he played the popular Rufio. He did an excellent job playing a major, minor character next to someone like Robin William, who played Peter Pan, and Dustin Hoffman, who played Captain Hook. Rufio was a tough character who exuded much confidence and pride to the point of being narcissistic. Dante was able to tap into that quality very well and was able to transform to a more humble Rufio when the time came. This alone would be enough to point out his excellent talent.
But most recently, I've come aware of Dante again from his work in Avatar: The Last Airbender, as Zuko. This is one of Dante's voice-acting skills that shine in my opinion. His voice sounds perfect for a character(Zuko) who has much pain and confusion in his life. As with every great voice-actor, Dante passionately gives his all in every scene as if he were Zuko. I find Zuko's character and Dante's voice to be a splendid match. Watch this show at the least to see how well Dante does. I hope for all the success with Dante's Life. Keep up the good work, Dante.

When watching an animated series, one expects to hear quality voices from the characters. At least I do anyway. Well, with Mae Whitman and her alter image, Katara (Avatar: The Last Airbender), you get just what you're looking for. Katara is a beautifully drown character with a feisty personality, yet nurturing at the same time. Such a character equally deserves a voice that matches, and borrowing Whitman's lovely voice box is a perfect match. I've seen shows where the characters are drawn to have a certain look, but as soon as they speak, that look is lost because they sound awkward. As I said, this is not one of those cases. Check out the show for yourself and listen to the brilliant cast as they blend well with each other. Mae Whitman has a beautiful voice and I hope for all the success with her life. Keep up the good work, Mae.

All I could think was: What? A person does the voice of an animal? That was my initial response when I found out that the animal characters to one of my favorite shows, Avatar: The Last Airbender, was produced by some guy with an uncanny ability to make non-human sounds as if it were his native tongue. I'm not knowledgeable of the full scope that voice actors encompass, but I am aware of Dee Bradley and his counter-personalities of being Momo, Appa, and other bizarre creatures in this show. I always thought the animal voices came from a combination of recordings, but to see someone capable of making realistic sounds for a flying lemur is amazing. Dee Bradley literally breathes life into these fictional creatures, which causes you to wonder do these creatures truly exist? The sounds are perfectly timed with the animals movement, where every gesture and look creates a different pitch. While watching reruns, sometimes I like to focus just on the animals to better understand the gift that Dee Bradley has. Check out the show for yourself and witness an unique talent at play. I hope for all the success for Dee Bradley Baker. Keep up the good work.

I don't know much about this voice actor except from what I've read here on TV.com. I saw that he voiced a character from Nickelodeon's Backyardigans, Pablo. I've seen that show a few times and the voices were tolerable. But, what I do know is that he voices the main character in Avatar: The Last Airbender. It's a show on Nickelodeon, and if you have the time, you should read my review about the show as well. He does an outstanding job portraying his emotions through the microphone and onto the scene. You can just feel that Zach is really in tune with his character. Apparently, he's being doing his homework. Watching Aang, the main character in the show, feels so natural when he's moving and speaking. Zach's voice blends well with the personality the creators have given to Aang. This person is quite talented in what he is doing. I hope for all the continued success in his career. Good job, Zach, and keep up the great work.
