"Gag me with a spoon, Mrs. Henderson!"

[FinalFirebrand]

She's memorable as multiple roles, and it's rare to be so iconic as so many characters.

[NisansaDdS]

Half of the comment section: CRITICAL ROLE!
Other half of the comment section: LAST OF US!

"I would like to RAGE!" ~Yasha, Ashley Johnson

[Jeff]

It's her eyes... her curly hair is gone, but her eyes are still the same. She was so cute on GP, and she's beautiful now.

[tommymartin]

WE LOVE YOU ASHLEY (also sorry for anyone who doesnt know critical role that came to this comment section, you've been buried by the legion)

[Ctrl-Alt-Del.]

When she speaks, all i hear is Ellie...

[Ailurophile]

I close my eyes and imagine Ellie talking about being on a wholesome family television show

[ialya]

Ashley is so underrated
She is a pure talent ❤

[jrd]

She’s really pretty. Here because of Last of Us.

[FernandoRodriguez-rrvd]

She had a great voice. She should do voice acting.

[WaistHighView]

Soooo when can we expect Leo to guest on Critical Role? :P

[curtisholsinger]

How confused is the "Today" employee that's going through the comments, trying to figure out what Critical Role is and why people are obsessed with it?

[Randomninja]

Ashley when she was Pike's actual height.

[RijaMo]

Hey its Gail from You've got Gail!

[stormraiders]

I can’t stop thinking of Ellie when I hear her voice

[Adeoca]

She’s all grown up! She’s so humble and nice.

[ethanholgate]

Absolutely love Ashley Johnson ellie is one of my favourite characters of all time and it's all because of her bringing to life

[billberndtson]

Leo might be world famous but does he have his own cult? Vote with your Johnson! Bidet!
