RIP Johnny, thank you for voicing one of the greatest characters on tv.
Rip John Michael Hardwick, you will be missed
RIGHT
You don't know who I am but I know where you live
Amen!!!!!
"Pocket-Saaaand!!!!"
Nooooo 😭
He was an amazing voice actor. I really enjoyed King of the Hill, and his character. Prayers 🙏🏻 and condolences to his family ❤
Cut the cap u aint praying for no one
i started the show like some weeks ago and really liking it. His character is perfect stereotype of that type of person.
I just bought a complete season of King of the Hill. I can watch it over and over again on DVD.
RIP Johnny Hardwick, thanks for voicing one of the quintessential characters on TV. You can't be replaced.
But but..the reboot..unless they come up with an insane story about how died or "disappeared" in Dale Gribble fashion
@@YTPFLIMS I was thinking they could use an ai to dub over Dale. They have a massive sample size since Johnny did over 258 episodes but is it ethical? They could train an ai to sound just like him but I don't know if they would do that. I think they made Luanne and Lucky move away when Tom Petty and Brittany Murphy died.
@@UMG-Melonshell nah there not using any bs AI.
@@FanGirl9463Dale wouldn't approve of using it.
@@katie7748 that is very true.
Johnny Hardwick is a legend for voicing Dale Gribble. All the features and qualities he bought to the character like Dale's conspiracies, paranoia, and his alter egos made were so hilarious. A couple of my favorite episodes is when Dale thinks Joseph is an alien and when he is bitten by Bobby's raccoon (Bandit) and he thinks he is infected with the rabies. Prayers to his family and friends for the joy he gave us all... RIP Mr. Hardwick aka Rusty Shackleford
“Wait a minute, you’re not an alien you’re a time traveler! Let me out of this thing!”

Honestly, I don't think "Dale" was too far off with his theories.
Not after what's going on today.
I subconsciously "GIH!" now when I get caught off guard or startled. I can't be the only one.
Absolutely loved that episode!!!!!!!
Rip Johnny. Dale was a one of a kind character. Arlen will miss him. So will I.
ARLEN TX. is in Houston. Who would have tunk of it
A voice that will always be in my head. RIP
And on UA-cam, TV, steaming service, dailymotion.
I get what you were trying to do, but that was a silly fail.
@@louiscyphre2267🙄
“Get lost,Bill!!!!!!”😂😂😂
Oh no 😥. So sad. Johnny did an excellent job voicing Dale on KOTH. This is a major loss. It will be interesting to see what they will do with the character.
In the meantime. Rest in Peace, Johnny. We will miss you. ❤
Especially if they are going to maybe do one or two seasons, in which Dale will finally be revealed to Nancy’s infidelity or he knew all along, but allowed her happiness and played ignorant the entire time. Rip johnny
I think it helps that he based the character partially on himself.
I never fully got into the show but I always laughed and smiled when I caught an episode visiting relatives over the holidays growing up. Rest in peace Johnny. I'm sure you're getting lots of laughs and smiles in the next life, you'll be missed by many but never forgotten. ❤️
The humor is waaay better, now that I'm older. Maybe give it a go.
You should revisit it. It's very much adult humor, you probably just didn't get lots of the satire when you were younger.
"King of the Hill" is still one of my favorite shows.
The show has lost 2 people.
RIP Johnny and Brittany.
ETA: can't forget Tom Petty as "Lucky". RIP
Also the voice actor of Lucky passed away a bit ago too
@@TheSweetTeaGuy
Yes. I was just about to edit my comment and add Tom Petty.
Thanks.
I was trying to get to my comment to edit it before anyone noticed I accidentally missed Tom. 😬
That’s horrible. He was an amazing voice actor. I was hoping and praying they would release another season of King of the Hill with the original voice actors.😢
Well, Brittany Murphy died a while back too unfortunately.
Tom Petty died 6 years ago as well. 3 people already & I can't believe it.
@@joshuafrizzell7856I can’t believe it’s already been 6 years since we lost Tom Petty.
@SplendidCoffee0 Yeah. The show won't be the same without Murphy, Petty & Hardwick. If the revival goes through, we'll have Dale for a couple of episodes since Mike Judge confirmed Hardwick completed work. I'll have a really hard time watching without the 3.
Likewise...honestly they could have worked around not having Luanne and Lucky, but Dale...nope. I'm truly bummed this morning reading this. RIP
Oh My God R.I.P. Johnny Hardwick 1958-2023 voice of Dale Gribble King Of The Hill age 64 I love this show so much I'm a fan of the show
He recorded lines for the new season
RIP Jonny!! For a man who voiced Dale and worked on King of the Hill. Yet the show being done for 10 years and only reruns or clips on the internet being played. Your role still till today has people enjoying your work. Just show how great of a job and impact you had on the world. You will be missed!!
R.I.P Johnny Hardwick.

I loved this show so much. Condolences 💐 to his family and friends. 🙆🏻♀️❤️🔥
R. I. P. One of my fav characters. And shows. The reboot won't be the same.
My god, rip John Hardwick. He was so good at voice acting and producing the show :(
Eternal Rest grant unto him O Lord. He brought so much character and humor to Dale. Such a great part of KotH. He will be missed 😢
Dale was one of the biggest things that actually gave me a smile. I know every line, how it's gonna be delivered but it just worked. When I found out he passed I nearly cried. Still almost tearing up.
Johnny, your life meant something. Time to take a well deserved break. Thank you
I am heart broken from his passing but I can't help but to smile for the memories he gave me, bringing a funny character like Dale Gribble to life. He made us laugh and made the show more fun to watch. RIP my friend.
I had the pleasure of having Johnny in my theatre classes - i learned quite abit while teaching Johnny! Im serious - he's a brilliant guy & a brilliant comedic talent. We'll all miss Johnny & all the moments in KOTH when DALE broke up the room! Heaven got a great one Aug 8, 2023! Rock on, Johnny! ❤
Fly high Jonny you were a great actor you may be gone but you won't be forgotten🕊️🕊️
Dale:”Hah! You’ll never catch me now, Gov!”
Rest in Peace, thank you for the memories and the laughter
Goodbye Johnny. You will be forever missed. 😢
R. I. P. Johnny. I loved that character. My favorite on the show by far. Too many people dieing too young these days
R.I.P. Johnny Hardwick 🙏🏽 you were an amazing voice actor and my prayers go out to your family.

Goodbye Sir .. thank you for the escape from reality! Dale Gribble will forever be my all time favorite character! 😔❤️🤘
R.I.P Johnny Hardwick i really enjoy watching the TV show
Here's my favorite Dale Gribble quote: "Joseph's real father is ["Nancy loves you!"] AN ALIEN!" It gets me every time.
RIP Johnny Hardwick
RIP Dale your comedy will be forever a legend
1958-2023
He gave me a lot of greatly needed laughs in some of my darkest moments. Will miss you, Mr. Gribble. Yep.
I k r. Helped with the depression. I laughed alot watching the show
Oh my god, this one hurt. Rest in peace, Johnny Hardwick. You brought joy to so many people. Thank you.
Very sad to hear this! Condolences to all his loved ones 💐
Johnny Hardwick truly delivered his all for the character of Dale Gribble. His characters antics and sayings were some of the funniest! Sha-Sha-Shaaa!, Squirrel Tactics, the classic Pocket Sand, the “You don’t know who I am, but I know where you live…” haha i laugh just thinking about it and you know I can’t forget Rusty Shackleford!! Countless, countless shenanigans that brought much joy and laughs in my childhood all the way to my adulthood. Thank You Johnny Hardwick and may you rest in peace 🕊️
"Have you tried squatting?"
R.I.P. Johnny,king of the hill was awesome. Thanks for the memories

This man was one of the greatest voice actors ❤️
Pocket sand for all today
RIP Johnny Hardwick, thanks for voicing one of my favorite characters on TV, I'll drop pocket sand in your honor 🙏🏽❤️
He will be missed
Out of all the characters in King in the Hill… Dale was my favorite character of the show.
R.I.P Mr. Johnny Hardwick. 😢
Thank you for making my childhood great and adulthood.
Rest In Peace Johnny Hardwick. You made that character beloved by millions
Rest in peace buddy 😇😇😇
I liked dale😊
R.I.P. Johnny ❤ One of the greatest cartoon voices EVER.
RIP Brittany and Johnny. Thank you for your support ❤
I have a nickname, Johnny. I'm being named after him and being educated on his entire life. We'll love and miss him so much. RIP Johnny

They were already writing for another season of King of the Hill. It's supposed to be released on HULU this year.
Aww man this is heartbreaking thank you for voicing such a great character and thank you for the laughs and memories 💔😥
The older I get the more I started to understand Dale Gribble.
RIP Johnny
King of the Hill is Classic
R.I.P one of my favorite shows of all time.
R.I.P., Johnny Hardwick ✌️,
A.K.A., Dale Gribble (KING OF THE HILL)
Greetings from Vantaa, Finland 🇫🇮.
I really don't know if I can watch the revival now without him. First Murphy in 2010, Tom Petty in 2017, now the one actor whose character I relate with mostly too. I pray & send my condolences to his family if he had any left. R.I.P Johnny Hardwick. You'll be missed by every fan of the show.
Wow. RIP sir. You gave me so many laughs with your character. Definitely one of my favorite of all time
rip johnny hardwick
Was shocked and saddened by the news - passing away just about 6 weeks before he would have qualified for Medicare benefits. Enjoyed his talent voicing Dale Gribble/Rusty Shackleford, writing some KOTH episodes and serving as a producer as well. My prayers go out to him, his family, friends and remaining KOTH cast members. RIP and Godspeed, Johnny.
r.i.p johnny hardwick.
your dale gribble character is was and always will be legendary.
Rip Johnny Hardwick, you were amazing. 😢❤️❤️❤️
Oh my gosh I am so so sad 😢😢😢😢😢😮😮😮😮
R I P 🤧🤧🤧🤧
Johnny was such an amazing talent, both writing and acting - and putting some real OOMPH and subtlety to his characterization of Dale. The fact that he claims to have molded Dale's voice around that of William S Burroughs makes it even greater to me. He will be sincerely missed. So many in the cast have passed since the show's end: LuAnne, Lucky and now Dale. Going to keep a little Pocket Sand in his memory.
We'll remember the good ole times when the show was at it's prime, no other will come close as Johnny Hardwick perform as Dale, rest in peace 🕊️🙏❤️!
Thank you for all of the good times Johnny. Rest in peace, and may all the best be waiting for you. You have earned it.
This is truly heartbreaking. I can't believe he is gone now. Im starting to think the revival will either be delayed even more or it will never happen because too many voice actors passed away. First Luanne, then Lucky, and now Dale, these are crucial for the show and without them it just won't be the same.
Cancel the entire thing. We DONT want the revival.
Maybe Hardwick recorded some lines before he passed. I don't know how I'm gonna watch it now. First Murphy, Petty & now Hardwick. I was really looking forward to the show coming back. I'm debating on whether to watch or not. We'll see.
They confirmed that he did record 2 episodes already.
@@TaharkahXno it was a couple he recorded lines already. I doubt it's 2
@@johnnymoreno5065guys it’s 2023. All they have to do is use his words from former episodes to create him saying anything they want. It’s animated too
In honor of Johnny Hardwick, I will now be ordering my pizza as Rusty Shackelford
R.I.P Johnny Hardwick, Dale Gramble Legend 👑👑.
I'm literally watching KOTH right now and I'm 30, so I grew up watching it. Gribble was, by far, my favorite... RIP good sir. You will be respected and missed 😢
Thanks for the good times
A grew up watching king of the hill. This makes me extremely sad. R.I.P 😢
RIP Johnny Hardwick. He’ll be missed.
Squirrel Tactic was my favorite Dale moment 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I just found out today while at work. My heart sank 😢 By far my favourite voice actor/ animated character. Rest easy.
Damn 😢I remember this character, now he’s gone. Rest in peace.
It is so sad that he is gone. Goodbye Johnny Hardwick. You were a great actor in King of the Hill voicing Dale Gribble.
Rest in peace Johnny! Thank you for the great work you gave us!
Rip Johnny. I watch King of the hill all the time in Hulu and Dale is my favorite character. Thanks for the memories
No one could ever be Dale gribble like Johnny Hardwick did it's sad what happened to him my colondolences goes out to his family and friends r.i.pJohnnyyouwillneverbeforgotten .
R.I.P. Johnny Hardwick 1958-2023 🙏🏻🕯️😭🤯🥺💐✝️😇
He did a fantastic job as Dale. R.I.P.🙏🌹
Kevin Conroy, and now Hardwick. These childhood icons will live on forever, man. T_T RIP Johnny Hardwick.
King of the hill is constantly on my tv. Rip Jonny 😢
Yes thank you for your voice.
A very sad loss. He was the best character on the show. 😢😢😢😢
RIP Johnny Hardwick, I will miss Dale Gribble and his Mack hat.
Thanks for all the laughs,
Pocket Sand!
He's throwing sand in the face of angels now
King of the Hill was my favorite cartoon growing up. This is sad to hear he was so hilarious.
Damm I wonder did he finish his lines in the new show
If all else fails... Use Ai
@@kangkoopan
It’s said not all but some episodes were recorded
@koopsm20 No. Let his character pass away like Johnny. Using AI to voice Dale would absolutely blasphemous and against everything his character stood for.
RIP , Johnny and Brittany and Tom loved this show growing up sucks a lot of the original voice actors have passed away
RIP Johnny. I wonder what they’ll do with Dale with the revival of King of the Hill. Will they have him die off screen or will they replace him? I couldn’t imagine Dale without Johnny playing him.
One of the best characters on one of the best animated television sitcoms ever. I love in the episode texas city twister when dale is driving towards the tornado and said "10 years ago you took my shed you think i'd forget that, it's just you and me now, bring it on." Then a few drops of water land on the windshield then he panics and drives crazily through a field. LOL. Rest in Peace Mr Johnny Hardwick.
Rest in peace to the man who brought Dale Gribble to the wall a.k.a. versus for Rusty Shackleford to two us all in for 13 amazing seasons and I 100% believe he probably was part of the reboot they were doing with Hulu I hope they dedicate this isn’t a home wonderful voice wonderful talent you know one of my favorite😢
Honestly when I heard he passed I was heartbroken. Rest in peace Rusty Shackleford
Oh, Dale. No 😢.
R.I.P Rusty Shackleford, Dale Gribble & Johnny Hardwick.
Such a great character gone, he will be dearly missed!
Rest In Peace, thank you for giving your voice to one of the characters that shaped my childhood and helped me get through some tough times🙏🏻What an incredible human being
With all due respect, Rest in Power is used for those killed via violence/corruption and especially activists. It’s specifically used to mark the UNJUST death of someone or the passing of a humanitarian legend.
It’s inappropriate/loses its meaning here with him because although it’s a tragic lost to lose a legend in comedy and voice acting. May he rest in peace.
@@Coratlan Oh, I'm really sorry, I didn't know that. I fixed it, once again english isn't my first language so I'd considered it an appropriate use of the word :(
Aww man
R.I.P Dale 😢
Not sure if they can make new episodes without Johnny Hardwick Dale gribble is such a great character, condolences
Just too shocking and heartbreaking 💔
King of the Hill is such a great show. “Dale” will be missed ❤️
