Thoughts on the Ringo Starr/ George Carlin Debate: A lot of people consider George’s narration to have much less excitement and more monotone in it compared to Ringo’s, but I think that’s by and large an exaggeration. There are many times where Ringo outdoes George, but most of the time George is on point with him. And there are other times where George does just fine with a quieter tone because he captures the emotion anyway. And that’s because George has a better voice than Ringo. Narration isn’t just about emotion or voice diversity, but also about having a good voice to listen to. Ringo unfortunately has a very bland voice compared to George. And George always tops Ringo in giving characters distinct voices. His narrations capture everything better usually and I think the complaint that he sounds bored compared to Ringo is an unfair exaggeration. In truth, George Carlin was probably the best narrator, with a great voice to listen to, a healthy amount of excitement, and the most iconic range of voices for the characters.
At the end of the review, the score came out for 17 episodes for George Carlin, 7 for Ringo Starr, & 2 are tied. I also created a playlist for the whole season with the recommended (UK or US) version of each episode. Check that out here: • Playlist
