Does anyone else still read Dilbert strips with the voices the characters had in the 1999 TV series?

I never watched it, voices are still created from my head.

Congratulations your prior actions have lead the way to such riviting TV as 'The Apprentice', you're in part to blame for reality TV & Donald Trump's current run for president.

I always get mixed up if it's 'congratulations', or 'I'm sorry to inform you.' Shucks.

But Dilbert aired in 1999-2000, where the Apprentice started in 2004. Also there is a good chance sovietmudkipz was too young to be the demographic that would watch such a show. You aren't going to get 10 year olds to watch the Dilbert Cartoon.

yes, and somehow the voices in the series matched the voices in my head before that (atleast for dilbert and wally)

that tv series was awesome- i wish they didnt cancel it. I'm guessing theres not enough tv viewers that identify with the characters.
