    talented(very)!! hide show

    he's definitely done some of the best voices that i've heard in a while(that's pretty weird i didn't hear of him earlier because he voices so many characters). he's also done a great job on Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide as a live-action actor, proving his talent isn't just limited to voice work. my favorite would have to be his cosmo voice. not many guys i know can make a voice that matches the description of an idiotic, childish fairy husband. but I need to give them credit- the whole oddparents cast is extremely talented. speaking of them, i need to go write their reviews.

    Wow he is so awesome, I first saw him on "Ned's Declassified School Surviver Guide" and he makes a great gordy! he portrayed him well! he was even the funniest character on that show! and later I was researching about The Fairly Odd Parents and I found out he voices so many characters in there and I was like "WHOA!" it doesn'teven sound the same as the other! he's a great guy! he's so comedic and great! he's really a great voice actor! I'm sure I'll see more of him because I'd like to see more of his future projects! I know he'll do a great job!

    Great voice actor. Great actor. hide show

    He is so awesome. I mean i really didnt recognise his voice in the fairly oddparents. I couldnt differentiate the dirfference between Jordan and Cosmo. He is so WOW! kinda reminds me of Tara Strong.
    Darran is also a great actor and comidean(sry for yhe wrong spelling). I think he acted and played so well in Ned's Declassified. Honestly, its really hard to find someone whose good acting, voice acting and a really funny comdian.

    He is by far one if the best voice actors I have ever heard. hide show

    He is by far one if the best voice actors I have ever heard. Evidence of this is proven in the fact that he is in so many, many shows, and usually I don't recognize his work. Most of the time I never find out that it's him unless I look it up. :P He's absolutley phenomenal. Every character that I've heard him play (I think that) I loved it. He's also a great actor. I absolutely loved his performance as Gordy in the Teenick sitcom Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide. He was the PERFECT choice for Gordy, and I don't think he could have played the part any better. Daran Norris is such a all-around talented actor and voice actor.

    An excellent voice-over who has done many cartoons such as fairly odd parents, the replacements, american dad, buzz lightyear and many many shows. Also proven to be a pre-eminent actor on the comedy series, Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide. hide show

    Wow. That's the only word I can use to describe him. His voice sounds different in every single cartoon. A truly gifted voice-artiste who has brought laughter to a million faces. He also had proven to be great as his role as Gordy on Ned's Declassified. I think that this guy needs to be more succcesful than he is as he deserves more credit than he's given. At times, I couldnt even believe that he was voicing certain parts as his tone and everything is unique to any given role. I hope that he's recognised more vividly for his talents someday. He deserves fame!
