Troy McClure was one of my favorite characters on the Simpsons. Now you can't even see him on a re-run because Phil left everything to his wife. Hartman and Geoening were friends, and when he realized royalties would be going to Hartman's wife, he ordered a stop on all episodes with Hartman voices. Like Troy McClure, Rainier Wolfcastle, Lyle Lanley, Evan Conover, Eddie Muntz, Lionel Hutz (aka Miguel Sanchez), and probably a few others I'm forgetting.
The last Hartman voiced episode for Lionel Hutz was Season 5 episode 6 Realty Bytes. Popularized by the meme: "There's the truth and, the truth."
His last voice over was season 10. That episode where Bart took care of those lizards he thought were birds. Bart the Mother. I guess some deal has been made because they air reruns with him now.
I need to check that out. As a lifelong Simpsons fan I loved his work as Lionel Hutz and Troy McClure. His last lines for the Simpsons cracked me up

It's possible it was only for a certain length of time, like a decade or so. I thought it was permanent. My mistake!
That's why you're the judge and I'm the law talking ... guy.
He had some great lines. My favorite is “does this look like a man who had all he could eat”
