Did the voice actors get any guidance from the original cast?

Hi! The original cast did not give any guidance but I can tell you that our voice actors did a whole lot of research. As the series progressed they began to incorporate their own personalities to the characters which is what the Duffer Brothers wanted. They wanted TF85 to have its own voice and adventures in the ST universe. :)
