Naturally, fans are worried about what this will mean, because Shearer voiced a ton of characters, including Mr. Burns, Ned Flanders, Waylon Smithers, Principal Skinner and many more. But in the above clip, voice actor Brock Baker does a rather impressive job voicing some of Shearer’s best characters. If they’re still looking for a replacement for Shearer, Baker just might be their guy. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3888752/simpsons-harry-shearer-voice-impressions/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3888752/simpsons-harry-shearer-voice-impressions/"},"headline":"Watch This Guy Pull Off 14 Impressive Simpsons Impressions","datePublished":"2015-05-19T16:07:40.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:20:01.377Z","description":"All of them are Harry Shearer characters","url":"https://time.com/3888752/simpsons-harry-shearer-voice-impressions/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Television"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Samantha Grossman","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/samantha-grossman/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3888752/simpsons-harry-shearer-voice-impressions/","name":"Watch This Guy Pull Off 14 Impressive Simpsons Impressions"}}]},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"See the Real Life People Who Inspired the Simpsons","description":"Even some of the Simpson's more animated characters come from real-life people.","thumbnailUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/v2/media/ckFGPY1s/poster.jpg?width=720","uploadDate":"2014-08-21T21:26:56.000Z","contentUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/manifests/ckFGPY1s.m3u8","embedUrl":"https://time.com/3888752/simpsons-harry-shearer-voice-impressions/","duration":"PT1M33S","potentialAction":{"@type":"SeekToAction","target":"https://time.com/3888752/simpsons-harry-shearer-voice-impressions/?jw_start={seek_to_second_number}","startOffset-input":"required name=seek_to_second_number"}}] ```
