According to a TMZ report on Thursday, Johnny Hardwick, a notable voice actor and comedian, recognized primarily for his portrayal of the chain-smoking conspiracy theorist Dale Gribble on the enduring animated series “King of the Hill,” has passed away. He was 64.
He was discovered deceased in his Texas home following a welfare check, as outlined in the report. A cause of death is yet to be determined but no foul play is suspected.
Hardwick initiated his career as a standup comedian during the early 1990s, making his television debut on “The Jon Stewart Show” before gaining widespread acclaim for his cherished role as the clueless, hat-wearing Dale Gribble on Mike Judge’s animated creation, “King of the Hill.”
Throughout “King of the Hill’s” 259 episodes, Hardwick participated in all except one, and he had been scheduled to reprise his character as Dale in the upcoming revival of the show.
