I know I've probably posted this in other topics, but I really like Bill Farmer's performance as Sam and Nick Jameson's Max voice in Sam and Max Hit the Road, and I like them with a passion!

Bill Farmer's Sam voice is a combination of two other impersonations he does... his Humphrey Bogart voice to go with Sam's career as a freelance detective, and his Johnny Carson voice to go with Sam's dry wit... only he can morph them together and make them work!

I know a lot of people here think Nick Jameson's Max voice might sound too old and not match Max's personality at all, but I disagree... the Brooklyn accent makes Max sound really intimidating, like he's a force to be reckoned with, someone you shouldn't underestimate under any circumstances.

I'd LOVE it if LucasArts brought Freelance Police back from the dead, because from what I hear, those two worked like crazy voicing those characters on that game! I do NOT want their hard work to go to waste, believe you me!
