General clarification on work content


* The ''Series/{{Farscape}}'' episode "Out of Their Minds" begins with this, just so the viewers get what's going on immediately, by blending the voices of the two people involved. Later in the episode, though, the characters have all reverted to the body's voice, with each actor just using the other's body language and vocal patterns (or trying to).

* In ''Anime/DragonBallSuper'', when Zamasu switches bodies with Goku, his voice is also switched along with him. [[spoiler:Goku Black therefore speaks with Goku's voice, but his speech pattern and dialect are very different, meaning it's generally easy to tell the difference.]]

* Used in the ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeagueUnlimited'' episode [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HINrM_Y8kEk&feature=channel_page "The Great Brain Robbery"]], when ComicBook/LexLuthor and Franchise/TheFlash exchange bodies, they use the voices belonging to the bodies. The writing staff wrote the episode solely as an ActorAllusion for ''Series/{{Smallville}}'' fans, since live-action Lex and animated Flash are both played by Creator/MichaelRosenbaum. A significant portion of the episode's comedy also comes from the usually sinister vocal stylings of Lex's voice actor, Creator/ClancyBrown, playing the goofball Flash for an episode. Among the jokes that [[RuleOfFunny saved the episode]]:
-->'''Luthor (in Flash's body):''' If nothing else, I can at least learn the Flash's secret identity. (''removes mask, looks in mirror and frowns'') [[StrangerBehindTheMask I have no idea who this is]].
** It gets better, as Lex's regular voice actor performs a hilarious Flash in Lex's body trying very hard to ''sound'' evil but coming off as PokeThePoodle instead.
--->''["Luthor" tries to leave the men's room]''\\
'''Dr. Polaris:''' ([[{{Ahem}} audibly clears his throat]])\\

* Used in the ''WesternAnimation/IAmWeasel'' short "I Architect". Owing to a surgical mishap, Weasel and Baboon's brains are switched. Michael Dorn (Baboon-in-Weasel) imitates Charlie Adler's goofy way of speaking, while Adler (Weasel-in-Baboon) speaks with Dorn's dry precision. The effect is pretty hilarious. However, some dubs (such as the Polish one) [[VoicesAreMental avert this]].
