3. James
Morgan has a great voice, too, but James has such gravitas!

4. Don't forget Jeffery Holder and the guy from The Unit. A lot of authoritative black male voices
on television.

I'll pick James Earl Jones.

5. Morgan Freeman played God. Convincingly.
James Earl Jones had his day, thirty some years ago. But I gotta go with Miss Daisy's chauffeur.

13. Tough to decide....
JEJ did a great job with that documentary on America's mourning of JFK but Freeman was great at explaining the penguins.

But Ken Burns turned me on to the wonders Keith "Was it the franks or was it the beans" David, who made "Jazz" a bold adventure.

And you know who else does great VO work? Liev Schreiber! You barely put the voice together with the face as you're watching those HBO Sports documentaries.

14. Morgan Freeman may be a better actor. But when it comes to voice over work....
"Morgan Freeman" means "James Earl Jones, but within our production budget."
