Does The Wiggles exist in the W.I.T.C.H. Universe? If so, what would be each Guardian's favorite Wiggles song and character?

This is because Disney exists in the W.I.T.C.H. Universe, and so Playhouse Disney must exist, and so should The Wiggles. And they also did the theme song for the network: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0kpCyiGRthA

So, maybe The Wiggles does exist in this universe (And the instrumental of "Romp Bomp a Stomp" was used in a montage in the episode "I is for Illusion" for some reason), maybe it doesn't.

Do I think each W.I.T.C.H. Character should or will be recast if the show is ever brought back? (Just my opinion, and keep in mind, some politics will be mentioned here.)

W.I.T.C.H. Guardians:

  • Kelly Stables as Will Vandom: I'm not sure that she will be recast, but I do think she absolutely should, since I'm not a fan of Kelly Stables as a person, as I don't agree with her beliefs at all, and I believe they go against who Will is as a character, and that if she were real and met her VA, she would have no respect for her whatsoever. In terms of who I'd replace her with, it would be Kari Wahlgren, mostly for her voice as Ellie AKA: Elastika in Zevo-3 (Yes, the one made by Skechers, before you ask), because I honestly couldn't tell their voices apart, so unless you watched the end credits, you'd hardly notice a difference between whose voice is whose.
  • Candi Milo as Irma Lair: Yeah, she should definitely be recast. And it isn't because of her voice actress's beliefs, because I don't think she's the same kind of person as Kelly Stables, but it's more because Candi Milo is in her mid-60s, and I think that might be too old to voice someone Irma's age, and it would sound kind of distracting. I'd probably go with either Sarah-Nicole Robles or Kristen Schaal to voice her, since they are younger than Candi Milo, and could pull off her role pretty well (Though Irma would sound a lot like Mabel from Gravity Falls or Louise from Bob's Burgers).
  • Kitty KaBoom as Taranee Cook: I'm honestly not sure, since she isn't the most noteworthy of voice actors out there, since she doesn't have a Wikipedia page or anything. So, maybe she'll voice her again? If not, probably Kat Graham or someone.
  • Christel Khalil as Cornelia Hale: She should definitely stay on as Cornelia, since I actually do agree with her beliefs, and she is still young enough to voice them. So, I'd have no problem if she came back to voice her.
  • Liza del Mundo as Hay Lin: Now, LozTalkz did say that she may have retired from voice acting. However, we all know that it is not true, as she is still actively voice acting in media, most recently voicing Camille in The Freak Brothers, and I didn't really notice a difference in her voice. So, I think she'd come back as Hay Lin if the show were brought back.

C.H.Y.K.N. Guardians:

  • Susan Chesler as Cassidy: This would assume Cassidy would appear again, as I think she'd be made a mere cameo in a few scenes, since she isn't relevant to the remaining unadapted arcs. So, maybe, I guess.
  • B.J. Ward as Halinor: Hard to say, since she is way up there in age, so it's possible she could get recast. If she is, I think she'd probably be recast with Bonnie Hunt or someone whom you may know as Sally from Cars.
  • Lauren Tom as Yan Lin: I think she stays, since she is now about Yan Lin's age, and she can still pull off that voice, as shown in the new seasons of King of the Hill. Maybe she could throw in a few propane accessories jokes here and there while she's at it.
  • C.C.H. Pounder as Kadma: I'm honestly not sure. She is still active, but she's in her 70s, so maybe she could voice her again, maybe she won't. IDK.
  • Kath Soucie as Nerissa: Here's your W.I.T.C.H./Captain Planet connection, everyone! She voiced Linka in Captain Planet, who definitely deserved better than being paired up with Wheeler. Anyway, I think she'd come back if the story required her to, since Nerissa doesn't do anything in the later arcs.

Villains:

  • Mitchell Whitfield as Prince Phobos: Again, yes, but only if the plot requires Phobos to return.
  • Dee Bradley Baker as Lord Cedric: Same as Prince Phobos.
  • Grey DeLisle as Miranda: This is becoming a pattern, but yes, she probably will return if the plot require her it to do so.

Love Interests:

  • Jason Marsden as Matt Olsen: I believe he's in no danger of being recast, so, I think he'll remain as his VA.
  • Dee Bradley Baker as Martin Tubbs: This is the on exception on the Dee Bradley Bake voices. Because his Martin voice is actually bad, so much so that it's ear piecingly annoying, almost like Horat's from The Nutshack. If I were to recast him with anyone, it would be Tom Kenny, since he can do higher pitched voices better than Dee Bradley Baker can.
  • Michael Reisz as Nigel Ashcroft: His recasting is inevitable, since Michael Reisz has mostly switched from voice acting to writing. So, he's going to have to be recast with someone else. In terms of who I'd go with, probably Seth MacFarlene. Who, yes, is an adult cartoon voice actor, but, Lauren Tom is as well, and so is Liza del Mundo, so it isn't actually unprecidented for one to voice him, so, that's who I'd go with.
  • Greg Cipes as Caleb: This is the one I've been dreading the most. Since Greg Cipes is actually a real POS, considering that he's an anti-vaxxer and drank the Kool-Aid. So, he probably will be the most likely to be recast in terms of voice actors who are still alive. In terms of who will replace him, probably Dante Basco, since his voice acting range is similar to Greg Cipes', except he isn't a POS and hasn't bothered with politics as much. So, I'll say he replaces Greg.
  • Justin Shenkarow as Eric Lyndon: He's still actively voice acting, so I don't think he's in much danger of being recast if the show is revived.

Siblings:

  • Cesar Flores as Chris Lair: He's also likely getting recast, but for different reasons. And that's because he's way too old to voice Chris Lair again, since he's now (checks notes) 30 years old, which is way too old to portray a nine year old. I think he'll just be recast with someone who is still a child.
  • Ogie Banks as Peter Cook: Fun fact! He's also an actor in Armorsauruses, which is a Disney Power Rangers rip-off. Thought I'd mention it here. Anyways, he's probably going to remain as Peter if the show is revived as an animated series.
  • Alyson Stoner as Lilian Hale: Unlike Cesar Flores, I think it's possible she could return as Lilian Hale, since she can still emulate the voice of a nine year old, since she portrays Isabella in Phineas and Ferb. Also, obligatory, "Hey, Cornelia! Whatcha doin'!"

Parents:

  • Lauren Tom as Susan Vandom-Collins: I don't see any reason to recast her as Susan. Because she's a solid VA and she's still actively doing voice acting today.
  • Dan Gilvezan as Tony Vandom: I don't think he'll continue voicing him, since he's quite old. So, probably Dee Bradley Baker could replace him. I guess since he voiced Bumblebee, it would sting like a bee to not hear his voice again. Sorry, was that too on the nose?
  • Cam Clarke as Dean Collins: Another fun fact, Cam Clarke also voiced a character in Totally Spies (Brock Williams), and he also voiced 80s Leonardo in TMNT 2014. Anyways, I think he's a safe bet to return in W.I.T.C.H.
  • Candi Milo as Anna Lair: Unlike her Irma voice, I think she can still voice Anna, since it's not as much of a stretch for a 65 year old actress to voice a 30 year old mother.
  • Byrne Offutt as Tom Lair: I think he can still voice Tom Lair. So, I think he still stays.
  • Mia Korf as Theresa Cook: Maybe? She may have retired from voice acting, so, maybe if that's the case, she might be recast with Lauren Tom or someone.
  • Dorian Harewood as Lionel Cook: Yeah, he's definitely too old to voice Lionel in the long term, since he's pushing seventy right now. In terms of who I think he'd be replaced with, probably Donald Glover, who voiced Mace Windu in Robot Chicken.
  • Nancy Linari as Elizabeth Landon-Hale: Yes, Landon is canonically Elizabeth's maiden name. It was found on Disney's website, so I consider it canon. Anyway, I don't see Nancy Linari continuing to voice her, since she's too old to voice her. Who I think could replace her, probably Elissa Knight or someone.
  • Jim Cummings as Harold Hale: Yeah, he's too old as well. In terms of who will replace him, my ideal pick would be either Brian Hull or Brock Baker, who can do voice impressions that match Jim's many voices.
  • Liza Del Mundo as Joan Lin: I think she still stays as Joan Lin as well.
  • James Sie as Chen Lin: I think he still stays as Chen Lin, since I can see him pulling it off again.

Sheffield Staff:

  • Candi Milo as Kate Knickerbocker: I think she's definitely old enough to voice Principal Knickerbocker, so, I think she still stays.
  • Marianne Muellerleile as Galgheita Rudolph: I think she can still voice Ms. Rudolph, since she is on the older side as a character.

Pets:

  • Ed Asner as Napoleon: This one is actually kind of tragic, because Ed Asner sadly passed away earlier this decade. And I think he may have to be recast, possibly with Patrick Stewart or someone else entirely. Either way, he's getting recast. (Also, no, we are not doing AI as a way to replace his voice. That's a terrible practice, and I doubt his family would approve of it.)
