That's the question that Pedestrian TV put to Cregger recently. He said his choice would be Christina Hendricks. "That feels about right to me," he explained.

What's the best GTA?
Rockstar Games has released the first footage of an in-game GTA 6 TV show called "Macca & Friends," which is about a sunglass-wearing pink alligator and his wetland friends in Leonida (the stand-in for Florida). One of Macca's friends is Pinchie the crab, who is Macca's landlord. Macca is also friends with a hat-wearing manatee and a flamingo. Check out the trailer below, which sets up a story where Macca needs to get money to pay his landlord.

Macca & Friends will be available to watch on Weazel, which is GTA's version of Fox. For now, all we have is this teaser.
