IMDb has Majel credited with voicing the Voyager computer for 114 episodes out of the total 170, and I can't recall ever hearing of another actor doing computer-voice duties on Voyager. (I'd guess that if you were to check transcripts for the other 56 episodes, you'd find that the ship's computer simply had no lines.)Didn't Majel "only" do alternate episodes of Voyager? Who did the other episodes?
I'd pay to see/hear thatJim Parsons talking as Dr. Sheldon Cooper.
That way the computer is always right and is obsessive to the point of initiating self destruct just to prove a point.
=p
Kirstie Alley was the original choice for the new computer voice but J.J. couldn't pry the ham-loaf out of her cheek pouches to get a clear sentence...Yeah, although Kirstie Alley seems pretty set on her new career of being the butt of all kinds of jokes about her size.Some computer voice lines (mainly those for the Jellyfish ship's computer, says Memory Alpha) were done by Lynnanne Zager.
I recall when the movie was released, some people asking if the Jellyfish's voice was Kirstie Alley. That would have been cool.

The funniest thing is, everytime I think about that idea, I can hear that Texan drawl over the comm.
Someone should edit a vid of ST:XI with soundbites from Sheldon.
=D
I think you're probably thinking of Enterprise. On Voyager, Majel always did the Federation computer. On Enterprise, she only voiced the computer in the mirror universe episodes. But that's not because they cast someone else, it's because the computers on the NX-01 didn't speak. And also, of course, on DS9 they had Judi Durand do the Cardassian computer on the station, but Majel still did all the Federation computer voices, like the Defiant and the runabouts.Didn't Majel "only" do alternate episodes of Voyager? Who did the other episodes?

TIP: never use laughing smilies in response to your own tasteless, tactless, and overwhelmingly unfunny humor.Kirstie Alley was the original choice for the new computer voice but J.J. couldn't pry the ham-loaf out of her cheek pouches to get a clear sentence...Yeah, although Kirstie Alley seems pretty set on her new career of being the butt of all kinds of jokes about her size.I recall when the movie was released, some people asking if the Jellyfish's voice was Kirstie Alley.

Which episode was the computer calling Kirk "dear"?
I should know, but my memory is on vacation at the moment...
That one should be Kirstie Alley
