The Problem with Carl?
3 March 2023
Warning: Spoilers
This season 32 opener sees Carl being voiced by Alex Desert, not Hank Azaria. As a long-time fan of The Simpsons, I was astonished because with due respect to Alex, his rendition of Carl seemed like a bad imitation of Hank Azaria's version.

No Good Read Goes Unpunished, the famous Simpsons episode that was a harsh rejoinder to "politically correct" Indian-American Hari Kondabolu's The Problem with Apu, is an episode that came to mind immediately when I saw Undercover Burns. Because why on earth did The Simpsons producers cast replace the extraordinarily talented Hank Azaria as Carl's voice with that of Alex Desert (with due respect to Alex of course). Why can't the producers get an Indian-American to voice Apu?
