"Suzanne Pleshette digs into her role as the voice of wicked Zira." —Stephen Rea, Family Fun Magazine
"The lone villain in Simba's Pride is the scheming mother of Scar's banished successor, the lioness Zira, realized and voiced with delicious venom by Suzanne Pleshette." —Scott Hettrick, L.A. Times Syndicate
"Suzanne Pleshette sounds like she savors the voicing of Zira...." —Melinda Miller, The Salt Lake Tribune
"...[W]hile the catty Suzanne Pleshette could have been a feral terror as the saga's new character Zira, Scar's chief mourner, the drawing and dialogue leave her disappointingly de-clawed...." —Stephen Whitty, Entertainment Weekly
"...[T]he five new songs of Simba's Pride are memorable, hummable affairs. Listen to the sinister 'My Lullaby' that Suzanne Pleshette sings.... Yes, Suzanne Pleshette provides the rasp and roar of the video's villainess. As Zira, a scheming lioness banished to the Outlands, Pleshette gets to deploy some of that queen-of-mean cattiness she showed off in her 1990 TV-movie about the former hotel queen Leona Helmsley. 'It is great to be so full-out evil,' says Pleshette...." —Steven Rea, TV Guide
"Listening to that voice roar and purr through the song 'My Lullaby' makes this gay guy consider bisexuality." —Blase DiStefano
