Oh, I this!

Hilarious stuff, guys! Imagine my surprise (and the giggling that ensued) when I heard Lucius' episode... all this time I thought he was a man. I was wrong. Hahaha! And the 10% discount was brilliant! The other one that stood out was Hagrid's episode, the bit where he said you had to distract the two heads first before you could scratch (one of) Fluffy's ears. Hahaha! Makes sense!

But my favorite, hands down, was Snape! You nailed him down perfectly - the weeping bitterly for having such a disappointing Potions student as a son, cursing James Potter, and being reminded of what could have been with Lily Potter. Very clever and very Snape!

Please record more episodes! I'd love to have Dobby or Hedwig or the Basilisk featured (if it were even possible to ask them questions).

These were cute. (: I LOVED Lucius', and Tonks' answer was funny. It wasn't how I imagined her "voice", per se, but I liked it. (: XD Fred and George's had me rolling, I swear. I was laughing SO hard. And Hagrid's, too!

Agh, they're all so cute and adorable and full of awesomesauce. (: <3

Okay I just listened to two of the ask a Harry Potter character (Lucius and Fred and George) and I had a nice little giggle. Lucius was spot on with his character. I loved the mention of the 10% discount and how he mentions never leaving any evidence behind. It seemed funny (in a sort of messed up way) that he would make a child work for their torture items.

Fred and George nearly made me laugh out loud when they mentioned that they told their mother that the money they got was from an elaborate heist. I was thinking that would be something they would do.

What an entertaining few minutes!

This is my first listen and I'm laughing so hard. Or maybe it's because I had to listen to it twice just to make sure I was really hearing from Lucius. The use of a female voice made things even more funnier.The suggestions Lucius is issuing were too much. Use a cattle what? Come to think of it, he'd say something close to that and go on about being pure blood and stuff. I liked the 10% teleporting discount, hilarious.

Hagrid was wonderful and so was his voice. Him and his creature obsession, at least I know how to deal with fluffy again.

Tonks sounded weird for me but I loved the fact she insisted on not being called Nymphadora. It was so like her.

Fred and George, my favorite mischief makers. Ha ha ha, they just lied about that so well but of course their mother would investigate...boys!

This is such a great idea, and I love the questions that some people asked!

I haven't listened to all of them, but the ones I've have have been in the main very funny. The voices are hillarious and I loved Lucius's answer! The way they had to solve the riddle to get the items... =D

Hagrid was also great! I was cracking up so bad. I love the characterizations of the characters so far.
Please record more - they're short but great to listen to! Bah... Love them.

[pennyardelle]

I loved these! They were short, sweet, and very funny. I loved when Lucius Malfoy said that you could mention him at Borgin & Burkes and get a 10% discount. Fred and George's anecdote was very funny, and Snape's remark at the end (plus Alex's "Snape" voice) were great!'

They were all put together well, too. I think the one with Tonks felt a little less rehearsed and polished than the others, kind of like the answerer was just doing it on the fly...but maybe that was an attempt to get into Tonks' character!

Very nice little podcasts, and I agree with everyone else: you should record some more of these in the future!

You should record more of these in the future! I ♥ these! They are hilarious! I honestly burst out laughing at Alex's Severus Snape voice, and I couldn't stop. My mom kind of gave me a look, but I didn't care! For some reason, it reminds me of the Snape in Potter Puppet Pals. Fred and George's also had me cracking up! I think that there should be more of these! The voice are very great (and funny)!

[PrincessPadfoot]

Okay Lucius Malfoy is a woman?? What genius inspired this??? I must shake your hand!!

hahaha I really like the idea of just giving children a cattle prod and letting them go at it But I guess Lucius's idea was better The 10% discount was fantabulous!!! I laughed out loud at that!!

<3 ya!!

Please, please, please record more of these in the future! These are hilarious. I literally fell out of my chair when listening to Snape's. Please... *Puppy dog eyes*

Lucius's was a personal favorite, due in large part to his feminine voice, which I found to be quite in character. I also loved the part about how their might be an investigation, so you should hide the evidence in a puzzle box. I believe, in the future, I will take his advice and make any future children of mine work for their items of torture.

Hagrid's was absolutely spot on. His voice and accent sounded perfect, and the dialogue was exactly what I imagined Hagrid would say. Though I can't believe Hagrid would kill a hippogriff! Such a travesty!

Fred and George's heist idea was hilarious, but it would have been a lot more interesting if there were two people doing the Fred/George act.

Snape's was my favorite by far. His voice was just amazingly perfect, and I adored the part about him weeping bitterly because his son was so hopeless at potions. Just perfect!

The best part about McG's was the voice. It sounded very McGonagall-ish to me. I can also picture her having a cat she loved in childhood...that's so sweet.

Tonk's was probably my least favorite. It was very repetitive and didn't really say much.

Excellent podcasts! I hope you do more!

Ask a Harry Potter character Episode 4

Okay I just got done listening to the Snape podcast and I thought it was really funny, especially since the answer and tone of voice seemed to really fit his character extremely well. I thought the fact that Alexg2490 did an actual voice for him made Snape's sarcasm even more pronounced. It made it funnier and more realistic. I have to say that I too was reminded a little of the Snape from Potter Puppet pals when I saw it mentioned in Moonbaby11's post. I keep remembering his voice from the Mysterious Ticking sound episode of that series (sorry for being slightly off topic).

Excellent work with this and I hope to see more as well!

Ask a Harry Potter character Episode 5

This episode seemed to really nail McGonagall's character. I loved how she went into this sort of long winded explanation about why she choose the cat and how it ended up with her mentioning how a lion would be really cool to be as well. Just the fact that she went to the lengths that she did to explain her choice, in my opinion, seems to fit her character. I also loved the last line about the lion as well!

[queen_luna]

As a whole, this series was extremely entertaining! A few more detailed notes:

Whoever played Tonks was very in character, I think. Her response seemed like the least rehearsed, which actually made the the podcast seem more real--like Tonks was actually there, trying to come up with an answer on the spot. It could have been a tad more polished though.

Professor McGonagall's voice wasn't exactly as I would've liked--but that's just being very nit-picky, as I'm just used to hearing Maggie Smith's voice. Her answer to the question though was very well thought out, and I could imagine McGonagall saying something just like that. So the actual response was very in-character.

Snape's was one of my favorites! His voice reminded me of Squidward from SpongeBob SquarePants and of the Snape from the HP Puppet Pals, and I liked it a lot. xD The question itself was funny on the surface, but after listening to Snape's answer I realized that it could've been pointing to "what may have happened" between Sev and Lily. Snape's response was spot-on and in character, with that touch of disdain that's always in his voice whenever he's talking about that Potter boy.

I had high hopes for Fred and George's podcast, and I must admit I am slightly disappointed that there weren't two actors playing the parts of Fred and George. It would've been really funny to have the two of them finishing each other's sentences like they do in the books. That being said, I did enjoy their response to the letter, especially that part about Molly reporting them. xD

Hagrid's was the most in character, in my opinion. The voice was excellent, and his response was exactly something I would imagine him saying.

Lucius has a rather feminine voice. xD It would've been nice to hear a British accent though. The question about the cattle prod was amusing, as was Mr. Malfoy's note at the end that if they mentioned his name, they could get a 10% discount. Lol.

All in all, a job well done to everyone involved--the people who came up with the questions and the people who played the parts of the characters. Also, I like the music that played in the background.

Ask a Harry Potter Character- Nymphadora Tonks

I thought this was a really close interpretation to how Nymphadora (excuse me Tonks) would respond to such a letter. I loved the part about her hair turning red when she heard that her normal name was used. That actually made me laugh aloud because that is exactly how I could see her reacting! Good work with the voice!

Ask a Harry Potter Character Hagrid

Now I have to say that I was impressed with the Hagrid voice done here since his voice is such a hard voice to replicate. I think that was AlexG2490, am I correct? Well whoever it was, they did a wonderful job and I think they really kept Hagrid in character. Nice work!

[Kenden_Malfoy_Chang]

003: Fred and George


As funny as I hoped it to be.. and the end was, don't get me wrong, I.. I didn't get it. The part of the message where the reader was mumbling O.o well, maybe that is simply my untrained ear but I did find it truly hilarious that Mrs. Weasley reported them!!
