Vampire David Boreanaz! Heh.
Well I guess he could do his own stunts then. Also, ME could save money on vamp makeup.
You want to meet the real me now?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Yeah, but think what they're losing on night shoots.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."
Debate needs settling. I haven't ever heard AA speak as AA, but my mother and I are guessing at which is closer to her real voice: Fred's or Illyria's.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
From the interviews on the DVDs, it's closer to Fred's, though not as Southern, and not quite as high.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

She speaks as herself on the DVDs, and her real voice is closer to Illyria's. It's kind of a mix at times, in the featurettes.

I love contradictory x-posts. I think I was biased to hear a more Illyric voice because that's what people on TWoP were saying. In one of the featurettes, she sounded a lot like Fred, though, and in another, it was Fred with hints of Illyria. I think they just wanted to get their panties in a tussle about the cutesy voice.

It's a remora, dimwit.
I've heard AA in other roles, and she pretty much sounded like Fred, but less Southern. I haven't heard her as herself, though to me it seemed that her Fred was more of an exaggeration of her regular voice, like Willow is for AH.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I'd think one's voice on DVD commentaries would be a little bit deeper, since one is just sitting and commenting to a mike. You don't have to project, you're not excited or moving around-- all things that, IME, makes one's voice a bit higher.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."
Hmm. It's time for me to make time for those commentaries, methinks. And, didn't Fred's southern-ness seem to taper off a bit (with the exception of Fred!Illyria in TGIQ)? Maybe it didn't, but I missed most of Season 3 due to college and such, and started watching regularly again Season 4. When I watched the S3 dvds, I realized that she had a Southern accent and either A) I had never noticed, or B) It had been largely phased out by S4.

AA tends to vary the Texan accent - I think it's a personal choice, since it seems strongest in flashbacks and when talking to her parents.
