I'm all for the old voices, they were classic! Why fix what ain't broken? 😕 New voice is ok, but doesn't have the same charm to me.

Personally, i like it! The new voice actor brings a bit of a different energy to Zuma that I think works really well with the dynamic of the Paw Patrol. It’s a change but a good one imo.

They always do this. New voice, new toys, new marketing push. It's all about the $$$, not about the show's quality.

It's tricky with voice actors, especially for characters that are supposed to stay young. I'm personally a fan of the new voice, it's fresh and keeps Zuma relevant. Voice acting isn't easy, and I think the new talent is doing a good job filling in some pretty big shoes.

My kiddo didn't even notice lol 🤷‍♀️ But now that you mention it, I can't unhear it. Guess it's fine tho. As long as my little one’s happy and the show's teaching good things, I'm good.

Nah, not digging the new voice at all. It just throws off Zuma's whole character. It's like nobody in the studio cares about keeping things consistent. First they say they won't change voices, then boom, new person. Can't stand it.

So the original voice actor for Zuma was Alex Thorne, who was later replaced by Carter Thorne due to his voice maturing. The recent change, if you guys haven’t caught up, is due to an entirely new actor taking over. This happens decently often with shows aimed at younger audiences as they try to maintain the character's youthful sound. It’s kind of the nature of the industry, there's always a bit of uproar but we adapt with time, you know?

Yep, noticed it too! They def changed his voice actor. The old Zuma had that chill surfer vibe but now it's like less distinct idk. Guess it’ll take a bit to get used to, change is always weird at first.
