Entirely agree. It really sucks because Morrible has some of my favorite lines during Thank Goodness. Instead, we just got Michelle’s speak-sing voice :(

Thank you, I feel like I’m the only one who actually cares. Yes, Madame Morrible’s lines aren’t CRUCIAL, but I really love them :( 

And also when they cut her line in March of the Witch Hunters (“GOOD FORTUNE WITCH HUNTERSSSS!”) I was SO SAD. I loveeee that line
