One word:

Pathedic.

I like pasketic, it sounds better than pathetic or pathedic!

He does a bunch more than Zoidberg, Fry, and the Professor too, including Zapp.

I knew about Fry and the Professer and Zapp, but they all sound a lot different from Zoidberg, so I assumed someone else did it.

I think someone needs to play "To tell the Zoidburg"... just to confuse them further.

What I wanna know is: when Fry, The Professor, Zoidberg and Zapp are all having a conversation together, does he (Billy West) do all the voices in one go, consecutively, or does he do all of Fry's bits then the professor's and so on? Does he ever get confused and do a line in the 'wrong' voice?

I would believe that they would all be done in one consecutive recording... it just makes more sense. If you need a single voice actor for several voices, then it's just more convenient to have them perform them all in the same setting... they usually try to get different actors to perform segments together, anyway, in order to have the acting sound more believrable (guest stars being the main exception). And after hearing the table reads, trust me, Billy can switch voices like most people switch radio stations... (this isn't to say that he would never make a mistake, but hey, that's what takes are for...)

To be honest I think it would be funny if he got one of the voices wrong. Zapp would sound funny as Zoidberg.
    However Billy West is a professional voice actor and he's a damn good one.
