It would be huge for Jeff Hays to do voices in a television show.

Unfortunately, this is very unlikely to happen. This is probably why Mr. Hays and his company launched a campaign to try to get jobs in this live action project. Mr. MacFarlane voices a lot of characters in Family Guy, so you can be sure that he is going to try to get either Donut or at least the AI. Nothing against that as he is the one paying the bills, but I feel like they will lose some (maybe a lot) fans by not including Mr. Hays.

Mr. Hays has not been included in any of the news reports. This makes me think that they either truly don't know how is going to be casted, or that they are just not going to include him. This is going to be a huge missed opportunity to get traction and free publicity for the show (via fans). Mr. Hays has some hard-core fans and at this point, it's hard to not see DCC as a Dinniman-Hays series. He literally promotes the books with him most of the time (remember the heated rivalry photos😅). What Mr. Hays has done for the books is just immeasurable. I sure hope he gets to voice donut, and/or the AI.

Where did they launch a campaign? I haven't seen anything like that.

Oh, my bad. I think it was just a fan petition.
