Many don't realize that Johnny wasn't just Dale's voice, he was also a writer and story editor. He was probably the biggest reason for how great the show was after Mike Judge.
Well DUH 🙄 of course he wrote on the show. I know what Johnny has done. Why else would the show be as good? People need to stop posting obvious things.
@@MiggyRules Not everyone knows that. Not everyone reads the credits at the end. For all most people or the casual viewer knew it was only Mike Judge who did the writing. Don't be such a pretentious dick and allow the poster of the comment to have their moment.
He didn't die, he enacted his escape plan, changed his name to rusty shackleford and escaped to costa rica to become towel manager for their national football team
I am not a good actor or actress names not alone in character within shows. Well anyways I did not the voice actor for Dalie died and from what I have heard the voice actress for Luann died.
@@NerdNest83 Who else from the original voice cast of King of Hill has died? And do you have any idea as to where I can keep up with the information as to which voice actors and actresses have died, also information in general about shows' websites will be nice.
Im lucky enough to have met him 2 years ago,me and my dog were at the free side of barton springs pool and he had his dog too..i didn't know it was him but i noticed he had a sick Bobby Hill and Dale Gribble tatt, i told him i love koth thats when he quoted the big D himself we talked for like a hour this was before they announced the new episodes...really nice guy and down to earth R.I.P. sha sha sha
Funny thing i was working Amazon those days and i delivered to Mike Judge residence i couldn't get his package to his door because the gate so i called and he answered i asked if he wanted me to drop inside the gate by front door so he gave me a code and i replied "that boy aint right"he laughed and said how i know it was him...lol but obviously cause it was his name on package
Actually according to Google it means in Hebrew to be quiet I think to stop talking or something like that at least I think that it was Hebrew.@@squirreltactics
King of the Hill is An American Pop Culture Classic Rest in Peace Johnny Hardwick for portraying such an iconic character I hope there is pocket sand in Heaven
Rest in peace, Johnny Hardwick!! Thank you so much for lending your voice to my favorite character of my favorite animated show of all time. You did a stellar job with this video.
He can't be replaced. His uniqueness was legendary. I never met him, but KOTH actually helped me through a depression about 8 years ago. It was a routine that helped me get to sleep on very long nights. Thanks Mr Hardwick. You know now in the Great Eternity just how much your talents helped so many people.
With this news things just got a little more complicated for the KOTH revival. If they outright canceled it because of not having Johnny Hardwick I’d completely understand. R.I.P Johnny Hardwick. You were funny and talented as hell. We all should pour out some pocket sand for him.
I hope the revival really does him justice. I wouldn’t mind if they dub the rest of the episodes Hardwick couldn’t record with a soundalike with a synthesized voice filtered over.
All the more evidence King of the Hill should've been aged up and the story now about Bobby and his family adjusting to an ever changing world from what even he once knew. Half the dang voice cast is dead!
Johnny Hardwick work on King of the hills. Even after 10 years being off the air. still makes people enjoy your work. Shows how well you did Dale and what you gave to the world. RIP Dale aka Johnny Hardwick!
Rest In Peace, Johnny Hardwick. You gave life to one of the funniest characters in animated history. May you continue to make people to laugh in Heaven.
*may you* *_rest in peace_* *now, you absolute* *_legend!_* , *johnny hardwick.* you gave us so many years of laughter, by giving us the un-knowable *dale gribble* 🧢🕶🚬 -aka _rusty shackleford_ . you brightened up the world that bit more by being yourself..... and by being dale. 🙏🏻🌺🏵✨️🕯✨️🏵🌺🙏🏻
i love that he didn't do a lot of press or interviews, he kinda kept kayfabe like an old school wrestler. dale kept his magic that way. kinda like kevin conroy with batman, also RIP...
Can confirm as someone who's been to a lot of quinceañeras: We do sacrifice the oldest so the youngest may grow more powerful. Gotta keep the cycle going, you know?
They finally got rusty Shackleford😪, thanks for making me laugh when I was in down on life, still working on myself near the finish line but not there yet, thanks for making my days better frr, rip dale🙏🏻🙏🏻
@@squirreltactics long live rusty Shackleford the most “untouchable” man ever, we frr lost a great one kinda hurt when I found it he honestly made me crack my ass off rip
"I'm happy you're being proactive. There are no bad ideas." Dale seems like a great boss, actually. He might not be the most effective on the business front, but hey. You can't have it all.
Many don't realize that Johnny wasn't just Dale's voice, he was also a writer and story editor. He was probably the biggest reason for how great the show was after Mike Judge.
Pretty obvious by the comments that everyone just thinks he was only Dales voice actor.
He was one of a kind
In his later years he was even posting videos cosplaying as Dale.
Well DUH 🙄 of course he wrote on the show. I know what Johnny has done. Why else would the show be as good? People need to stop posting obvious things.

That craft dawg… guess we’ll miss him either way
51 tango!
Rest in peace, Johnny Hardwick. The show could never be the same without Dale!!!
He is my favorite character next to Bobby.
I am not a good actor or actress names not alone in character within shows. Well anyways I did not the voice actor for Dalie died and from what I have heard the voice actress for Luann died.
I agree. That's why Hulu can't do the revival now.

RIP Johnny Hardwick
It's sad the world lost a great man, a hilarious voice actor and a talented writer
He's with Lucky and Luanne now.
Carl moss too
Johnny's legacy will live on in every laptop, desktop, mainframe and supermarket scanner. Johnny is The Beast now.
The man is no more. He didn't turn into some high tech boogeyman.
@@ianfinrir8724 weak salary says that grave is empty, I’m going in. 🤢🤢🤢🤮
Gerbils and hamsters can breed, Dale is a genius. Rest in peace
Yes they can

"It shouldda been Bill!"

To quote the late, great Rusty Shackleford, "It should've been BILL!"

Nobody can ever replace Johnny in my opinion.
Another voice lost that really screws up a reboot
@@user-cv8qe9ru8cjust can it at this point
@@guilhermehank4938yeah. They really should.
Billy West would do a good Dale Gribble voice.
As much as I love King of the Hill, I agree they shouldn't reboot it now. He was one of a kind.
He's safe from the government now
POCKET SAND!
*Sprinkles Pocket Sand for Johnny Hardwick* Thank you, Johnny Hardwick, "Dale Gribble". RIP
Johnny Hardwick didn't die. Him and Art Bell went halfsies on a dry cleaners in Dayton.
Thank U for Everything Mr Shackleford. We love u🕊️
R.I.P., Johnny Hardwick. I’ve seen his channel on UA-cam, it is so hilarious.
Hearing he passed broke my heart. He gave us so much goog gribble
May your after life be filled with Alamo beer, Manitoba cigarettes and pocket sand ❤. Rest In Paradise
One of TV's greatest characters. Rest in peace to Johnny Hardwick.
How could you Puff Puff?...Rest easy Johnny, you found your way home!!!❤
Johnny Hardwick.... WAS...... DALE GRIBBLE!!!

Rest in peace, Johnny Hardwick!!
Thank you so much for lending your voice to my favorite character of my favorite animated show of all time.
You did a stellar job with this video.
Gonna miss Johnny Hardwick as Dale. Rest in peace.
“SQUIRREL TACTIC!”😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
RIP Rusty, you will be missed by many
Rest in peace, Johnny Hardwick. We'll miss your voice.
He can't be replaced. His uniqueness was legendary. I never met him, but KOTH actually helped me through a depression about 8 years ago. It was a routine that helped me get to sleep on very long nights. Thanks Mr Hardwick. You know now in the Great Eternity just how much your talents helped so many people.
Hank: damn it dale …. Damn it * sobs *
With this news things just got a little more complicated for the KOTH revival. If they outright canceled it because of not having Johnny Hardwick I’d completely understand. R.I.P Johnny Hardwick. You were funny and talented as hell. We all should pour out some pocket sand for him.
KOTH without Johnny Hardwick is a bit like Queen without Freddie Mercury - it won't be the same.
Dale, you giblet head, we're going to miss you and your real-life counterpart, Johnny Hardwick.
Johnny made king of the hill amazing Dale aka Rusty Shackleford was my all time favorite
hes doing squirrel tactics in heaven now....
Dale is an example of how there is a need for any type of voice
I lost PeeWee and Dale in the same week, I’m not okay!!!!!!! Rest in Peace Johnny Hardwick, your memory will live on forever! 😢❤
Lets give it up to the Big D himself.... Rusty Shackleford R.I.P. sir thank you for all the laughs and memories
Actually cried, he's my favorite character. Rest in Peace Johnny
Man... We are loosing so many great people
RIP Johnny Hardwick
I miss Dale.
He was a crazy S.O.B, but we all liked him.
You'll be forever missed, Johnny! No one can ever play Dale Gribble like you did.
I don't know how the return will be the same without Rusty
Right in the childhood… RIP Mr. Hardwick. I’ll always carry a vial of pocket sand for you
One last Yup for you Johnny. 😔
Yup.
Yup. 😪 🕊️
Yup
Arlen will never be the same without this legend around ):
Rest in peace Johnny you were the one and only rusty shackleford 😢
The man will be missed for a long while
I hope the revival really does him justice. I wouldn’t mind if they dub the rest of the episodes Hardwick couldn’t record with a soundalike with a synthesized voice filtered over.
I agree use ai maybe
I'm pretty sure they could find some voice actors that can replicate Lucky, Luanne, and Dale close enough
Worse case scenario Johnny's death causes them to decide to cancel the revival entirely, It always takes just one major setback.
All the more evidence King of the Hill should've been aged up and the story now about Bobby and his family adjusting to an ever changing world from what even he once knew.
Half the dang voice cast is dead!
Man, Gerbster was a term we used for any small critter growing up after this. I had forgotten almost completely.
I can't believe he's really gone. RIP Johnny Hardwick (aka Rusty Shackleford) 🕊 ❤ 😢 may his soul rest in Heaven
A seriously talented man was taken from us. Thanks for being you, Johnny Hardwick. May he rest in peace.
Dale was the best character. Lots of funny scenes.
It was only a matter of time before THEY got him.
I'm so sad... Rest in peace, Mr. Shackleford... You brought us much joy and laughs. You are irreplaceable.
For the unknowable, he was definitely knowable.
Rest In Peace, Mr. Hardwick.
Thank you for voicing a piece of my childhood and many adult laughters.
Great Collection. Rest in peace Johnny!
God bless his soul may he rest in peace
Johnny Hardwick work on King of the hills. Even after 10 years being off the air. still makes people enjoy your work. Shows how well you did Dale and what you gave to the world. RIP Dale aka Johnny Hardwick!

No one ever gets it

It's really sad to here this, he was far too young. He will be remembered for a very long time
"I'm happy you're being proactive. There are no bad ideas."
Dale seems like a great boss, actually. He might not be the most effective on the business front, but hey. You can't have it all.
