Ugh I don't wanna do yet another RIP post 😖

#RIPdale #JohnnyHardwick

Oh, man. I just heard that #JohnnyHardwick passed. He was best known as the eccentric, conspiracy nut, cuckold Dale Gribble on #KingOfTheHill, but to his government overlords, he was known as #RustyShackleford

He will be missed.

#MikeJudge, #KathyNajimy, #StephenRoot, #PamelaAdlon, #JohnnyHardwick and #LaurenTom will all reprise their role on a #Hulu-ordered revival of #KingOfTheHill. No word yet on if the character of Luanne will be part of the show with a recast, or if they will honor the memory of #BrittanyMurphy who passed away just shortly before the series ended. #television #animation #streaming
