Sage Steele Joins Voice Cast Of ADAM CAROLLA’S “MR.BIRCHUM”
Join Adam Carolla and The Daily Wire in the new animated series Mr. Birchum, coming exclusively to DailyWire on May 12, 2024, though one previously announced voice star won’t be part of the cast…Candace Owens. That’s right, Candace Owens was originally supposed to play the role of “Deena” but left DailyWire and took her recorded lines for Mr. Birchum with her leaving the producers of the series to staff Sage Steele as the new voice of “Deena”.
Steele joins an already stacked cast that includes Adam Carolla, Megyn Kelly, Brett Cooper, Kyle Dunnigan, Tyler Fischer, Sage Steele, Rob Riggle, Alonzo Bodden, Jay Mohr, Danny Trejo, Patrick Warburton, and Roseanne Barr.
Synopsis: Meet Mr. Birchum, the no-nonsense teacher, navigating Teddy Roosevelt Junior High with his family — Wendi, Eddie, and stepdaughter Jeanie. Partnering with his friend, Gage, Mr. Birchum faces off against the dynamic advocate for change, the fanatical social justice warrior, Karponzi.
Short of getting Roiland back, which I'm sure isn't going to happen, I don't even think they could get much better than the new voices from the previous season. And the ratings for season 7 weren't much lower on average than for season 6; it was pretty much just a normal season-to-season drop that most likely would have happened regardless.
I mean, look at the actual averages:
Season 1 - 1.57 million viewers Season 2 - 1.97 million viewers Season 3 - 2.33 million viewers Season 4 - 1.52 million viewers Season 5 - 0.96 million viewers Season 6 - 0.56 million viewers Season 7 - 0.42 million viewers
Ever since season 3, it had been having steep drops even with Roiland still involved; the season 6 to 7 drop is actually the smallest-percentage drop it's had since it started dropping, and if anything it's possible that changing the voice actors actually *boosted* interest a bit and prevented it from dropping even more.
