William Richard "Billy" West is a voice actor, known to many for his work on the Howard Stern radio show, Billy West is an extremely talented voice actor who provides voices for many characters in the Futurama universe including Fry, the Professor and Zoidberg. Outside of Futurama, West is best known as the voice of Doug Funnie on the Nickelodeon cartoon Doug and the voice of Stimpy (and later Ren, after show creator, John Kricfalusi was fired) on Ren and Stimpy, but has done voicework on many other cartoon shows (both for kids and for adults) and even voiced such animated mascots as the Honey Nut Cheerios bee and the Red M&M.

Engagement with Futurama

Of all Futurama's voice actors, Billy West is perhaps the one most willing to shout out his love for the show. As such, he was the crew member who spoke out most of the possibilities of Futurama's return for a second run, during much of Spring, 2009.

He stated he would almost be crushed if he could not be able to continue on the show, and stated that Futurama was the best gig he ever had.[1]
