Are they using a new voice actor for Dale since Johnny Hardwick passed away?

Hardwick recorded some of the lines and they got Toby Huss (former voice actor for Khan) to do the rest.

Took a near-death train collision just for him to upgrade his truck.

The majority of the animated show's voice cast will be reprising their roles, including series creator Mike Judge as Hank Hill, Kathy Najimy as Peggy, Pamela Adlon as Bobby (now an adult and working as a chef), and Stephen Root as Bill Dauterive.

Johnny Hardwick was also set to reprise his role as the voice of Dale Gribble, but unfortunately died in August 2023. According to a report in TVLine, however, Hardwick completed work on "a couple" episodes before his passing.

The revival finds Hank and Peggy newly returned and retired in Arlen, Texas, after spending several years in Saudi Arabia, where Hank worked a propane job (natch). The new season spans a total of 10 episodes.

They should just take all of the old, unused recordings they have of Hardwick and write stories around them.

Well that's a relief since it appears Bill gets COVID in that intro and never shows back up. Boomhauer also appears to have a wife and kid.

BOYCOTT NOW!

I think if they will keep true to the characters and make it contemporary, a lot of people are going to be triggered because they misremember these characters as being more conservative than they actually were.


True, they are t-shirt sips.


And Bobbie was gender fluid before that was a thing anyway. Hank even knew it. "That boy ain't right "


So much irony. Where do I start?

Hank was terrified that Bobby was gay. That's definitely a conservative take. He was constantly pumping love for the good ol' U.S.A

And I know many, conservative, t-shirt, sip fans. Waaay to many actually.

The original was such a great show. I have lived out of state for just about 8 years now, and non-Texans just don't get it. Hopefully this reboot does the show some justice.

I disagree on the non-Texans don't get it. I live in southern Missouri and people here love the show. They may not get all the inside jokes like Luanne Platter, but only a small portion of the show has that.

Yeah I agree. King of the Hill wasn't all that different than Seinfeld just in a suburban setting. Plenty of non Texans get King of the Hill.

The Hills returning from Saudi Arabia, I can't wait. Should be hilarious.

I was just vacationing in The Kingdom last week and it's changed a lot since I lived there so their culture shock shouldn't be quite as bad as mine was but, it should still make for some good jokes. Especially if they tackle any LGBTQ++ issues.

My brother went to the panel last night in Austin and said that Jonathan Joss, the voice actor for John Redcorn, was not invited to be on the panel, but showed up anyway and had a sort of melt-down about it.

Never thought about it before, and I have watched every single episode of King of The Hill - Stephen Root is also the voice of Buck Strickland.

It's going to be tough to overcome the loss of Luanne, Lucky, or OG Dale, but Im really interested to see how this turns out.

If Mike Judge didnt think it would be possible to re-light the fire, I dont think he would have attempted it. This is going to be fun.

RIP Brittany Murphy, Tom Petty, and Jon Hardwick. Big shoes to fill for sure.

Would have loved to have been sitting in on a reading (or whatever it's called when voice actors are reading the script for an animation segment) with Tom Petty.

How many takes did it take to get through this? :-)



Or this one...



Greatness. There is always AI, I suppose.

I was there and this is correct. He was outside before the event telling people he was John Redcorn and I told my friend "I bet he starts trouble".

Then sure enough he starts talking and you could see everyone on stage look really uncomfortable. Here's the video I found that someone took.

He wasn't involved in the new season, evidently, and was upset with that. I can kind of see his point

You can hear Mike Judge saying that he is in the reboot. I read several months ago that he wasn't so I'm not sure if he just has a cameo or what.

I can see why John Redcorn wouldn't be in the show. His whole character is centered around adultery and full of Native American stereotypes which isn't very PC in 2025. Then you have the death of Dale's voice actor, which we don't know how that will be handled. If he has an offscreen death, then it would be odd for Nancy to continue to bang Redcorn.

Redcorn is shown in the new opening posted above, so we will see.

Dale is voiced partly with recordings they already had from Hardwick and partly by Toby Huss.
