Saw is a funny franchise to me. The first movie is a classic, the second one was okay and then every movie after the 4th just gets more ridiculous. It became a parody of it's original concept while still taking itself serious which just made it nonsensical, and not in a fun way. The latest one has been the best in a long time since they've finally realized that Bell was carrying the movies, and yet they shot themselves in the foot by killing his character off; continuing the franchise well beyond that which just made Jigsaw seem like an omniscient being and the latter movies have more plot holes than swiss cheese.
The relative flop of SPIRAL, despite A-list actors and a returning champ of a director, proved pretty well that you can't take Bell out of Saw, even as a voice.

I honestly can't remember anything other than Chris Rock and Samuel Jackson when it comes to Spiral.
