Well, again there's not much going on in the world of new Avatar news at the con today. We'll still have to wait until Saturday's panel to find out the real juicey stuff. But I can finally reveal to you all who our special suprise interviewee was... None other than Greg Baldwin the new voice actor taking over the role of Iroh! The man is the nicest & coolest guy ever. I'm currently finishing the video coverage for the first day (Thursday) and will have today's interview with him up (hopefully) tomorrow. I was up until 2:00am last night trying to get the first video done for you to have last night, but I'm physically & menatally beat and I wanted to have some ability to coherently think when I talked to him today. XD Until I get the video ready for you, I will tell you that amoung the many interesting things he mentioned, one of the off-camera comments he said to me was that he was very much in support of Nick renewing Avatar for another 3 seasons & hopes to hear some info on that possibility tomorrow at the panel! Cool stuff & an awesome guy (he even did a little of Iroh's voice for me )!

Yeah, Amira & I are really pooped. But it's been fun too. She's been a real trooper helping me run camera today. Her leg's been hurtin' her somethin' awful but she's playing through the pain and we've been having fun meeting fans & cast alike! wow.. emm... thank you for telling us i think he is going to do it well good luck He even mentioned himself today that he's not completely identical. Maiko's age gave Iroh's voice a certain timber & bass that's hard for someone not at that older age to match. But trust me, Greg's voice sounds awesomely similar! As long as you're not putting them side by side you'll never notice since Greg has the timing & inflection down to a "T." Just watch "Schooltime Shipping" agian. That was Greg playing Iroh in that short.

Oh man, I can't wait to hear this interview, as well as tomorrow's panel! Now...what's this about 3 extra seasons? Seriously?! Holy mother...that'd be AWESOME!!
I know a few people are worried that a 4th season will mean nothing but a lame epilogue, but another 3 seasons may mean another new storyline! This is beyond awesome, it's...fan-freaking-tasti-cular-iffic!!

Agian, that "3 more seasons" comment was just his own hopeful wish... NOT a revelation that it's going to happen. However it's fun to hear someone who's actually in a postion to see that it could be a possibility if Nick & the creators wanted to do it, mention such a wish. ...And yes, another 3 season story arc would ROCK.
