I'm telling you, Alec Baldwin is awesome! He did the narrating for Seasons 5-6 of "Thomas the Tank Engine" perfectly! He also did good movie acting in "The Cat in the Hat" and "The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie". Some people say he did horrible narrating in "Thomas the Tank Engine & Friends" Seasons 5-6. I have no clue why. I have all his narrating on some of my "Thomas the Tank Engine" video tapes and DVDs. Oh, did I forget to mention one thing? He also did great acting and guest starring in TV series such as "The Simpsons". He's the best!
I think Alec Baldwin is a great actor. I really believed his role in 'Thomas and the Magic Railroad'. He played Mr. Conductor and he was reallyy good at it. He's my favorite character. Also, he narrated Seasons 5-6 of Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends. I believe that he did a really good job of narrating and many others do, too. After seeing these seasons, he became my new favorite narrator, beffore George Carlin. His voice is very easy to understand and not too squeaky or anything like that. I'm really upset that he doesn't narrate anymore. Alec Baldwin, overall, is very talented!
I was a big fan of the series, Thomas the Tank Engine. And I have to admit (of course not to my friends at school) I still like the show. But since the show used no real characters that didn't even show their mouths moving, there had to be narrators for the show. Alec Baldwin was one of them, and I think he did great. Alec Baldwin was definately my favorite narrator for Thomas the Tank Engine. He also narrarated a bit in the movie, Thomas and the Magic Railroad, as well as appeared in the movie!
For some reason, I think this actor is so talented. I will always remember him from my childhood. I even saw him in a part of 30 Rock, and I think he was great. What am I saying!?? He's great in everything he's in!!
I dont know why people hate him so much as Narrator I dont think hes the worst, In my opinion its Michael Brandon whos worse narrator. He may have made James sound Gay but What the Bloody Hell is so wrong with that sure it may be a Kids Show but The Fact that Hercules on TUGS Calls alot of Tugs my Dear and Sweetheart, If it werent for Lillie Lightship some may consider Hercules Gay Hes a very good Narrator that is underapreciatted and was much better compared to Michael Brandon! I was disapointed when I bought New Friends for Thomas VHS and found He didnt Narrate it (Though Michael Angelis was a Good Narrator for TTTE) I was very disappointed when I also bought Steamies vs. Diesels and found that the Music was aweful, Something didnt look right and Worst of all th narrator (Michael Brandon) sounded like a Wuss! I give Alec Baldwin 5 Stars!
After George Carlin left Thomas the Tank Engine, four seasons narrating gone, Britt Alcroft went for another big name for the American spot. Sadly, Alec Baldwin was a very bad choice. I haven't heard much of his narration but the few episodes I have heard are awful. Nearly all of the voices sound the same, but there were some bad changes. His voice for James' is well known for making him sound really gay I don't really like him as an actor that much either. I saw some of "30 Rock" and he wasn't funny at all. And he was awful in Thomas and the Magic Railroad. I think most of you will agree that Alec deserves this
