That’s like, how the show looked. Damnit Bobby!
That boy ain’t right
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Johnny Hardwick completed work on “a couple” episodes of Hulu’s forthcoming King of the Hill revival prior to his death earlier this month, TVLine has learned.
Hardwick voiced Hank’s bestie/neighbor, the chain-smoking, conspiracy-obsessed bug exterminator Dale Gribble in all 258 episodes of the erstwhile Fox series.
It remains unclear if another actor will be brought in to finish what Hardwick started in the revival, which is slated to bow in 2024.
Reps for 20th Television Animation and Hulu declined to comment for this story, beyond issuing this joint statement: “Johnny Hardwick was an incredibly beloved member of the King of the Hill family, whose tremendous talent, brilliant humor and friendship will be deeply missed by all who were fortunate enough to work with him over the past 25 years.
Our deepest condolences go out to his friends and family as we mourn the loss of one of the animation greats.
As previously reported, police were called to Hardwick’s Texas home on Aug. 8 for a welfare check and discovered his body.
I’m a bot and I’m open source!
The revival didn’t need to happen before the horrible news and they should cancel it now in my opinion. Dale, Lucky, and Luanne are dead. Khan was canceled. That’s half of Rainey Street.
Yea, please don’t ruin another classic
