What kind of voices do you think each character has? This topic came to mind because whenever I read, for some reason there are different voices for when each character speaks.
For some reason I always pictured Mallory having some kind of slight nasally undertone to her voice. And Stacey having some kind of a loud voice.

Ever since the TV series I keep thinking Dawn speaks in a Jersey accent.

I think Karen would have a really loud voice. You'd always hear her and everyone would always be listening to her. I also picture this kind of voice for Claire, only when she does it, it's cute. The other Pike girls I think would have softer voices, and Nicky would too. The triplets would also be loud, always trying to be heard.

I've never thought about this but it is interesting. I can't really imagine voices just like I can't really picture them. Agree that Karen, Claire, and the triplets would be loud. Kristy too. MA is probably much softer spoken and Mallory when she is unsure of herself (which is often). We know Logan has a southern accent and Abby and Hunter Bruno are affected by their allergies (don't get me started on reading the accents...) I can hear Andrew Brewer as a whiner. Other than that, can't really imagine any of the voices.

Their voices all pretty much sounded the same to me. I think the only voice I could really "hear" in my head was probably Karen's, because of her lack of contractions--she had a high voice, was very exact, and over-enunciated everything.

I never really tried to imagine their voices either. The only one that ever "sounded" different in my head was Abby. I imagined her as having a really thick NY accent, although strangely I never presumed Stacey to have any kind of NY accent at all.  |

I like this topic! Abby would have a loud voice in my head. Mary Anne, of course, would be quiet and would maybe say "um" a lot. I think Jessi would speak with very proper grammar and "project." That's not really logical since you don't speak in ballet but I see her as someone who would play around with her voice so it gives the impression she wants it to give.

I remember I had a cassette of some of Baby-Sitters Remember (had Kristy Stacey mary-anne claudia and dawn on it)...and I keep thinking of how the voices irked me... except for Kristy's (actually I think the girl who voiced kristy played mallory on the tv series)
It also had AMM's voice on it, which was nice to hear, and of course the "say hello to your friends...baby-sitters club" on it...i think i ran that tape ragged.

I used to watch the few episodes I had on tape over and over again. I wish I still had them.

I don't think I ever imagined their voices, but after seeing the tv show, Kristy would always have TV Kristy's voice because she fit the characterization just so perfectly. "You guuuuuuys..." Ha. |

^The only voice I could imagine was Kristy's and it WAS Avriel Hillman's voice. Imagine that. Heh, we should all send her some type of "thank you for being the perfect Kristy" gift.

I imagined her as having a really thick NY accent, although strangely I never presumed Stacey to have any kind of NY accent at all. Heheheh yeah, I've been wondering if Stacey had a New York accent. I'm assuming she doesn't, because they probably would've mentioned it, but it makes me giggle to think of the most sophisticated member of the club with a strong NY accent. |

^ I never thought of this but I wonder if you're right. Abby, too. I just can't imagine any of them with accents - even Logan. Probably why I can't "hear" the characters just like I can't "see" them  |
