Awesome, I'm looking forward to this
 
Any of the original writers working on this?
Mike Judge has been involved with this since it's inception several years ago. He's also the lead writer, just like the original show, in addition to the voice of Hank and Boomhauer. Greg Daniels is also returning as the shows co-producer alongside Judge. Saladin Patterson is returning as the showrunner.

It seems like it's in pretty good hands.

This sounds great! Here's hoping it delivers.:messenger_ok:
 
I will miss Britanny Murphy. The pig slaughter house episode might be the most disturbing cartoon episode I've ever watch.

Toby Huss is taking over as Dale Gribble. He's pretty good and i'm glad they're keeping Dale.
Also if you're having doubts about the reboot check out the Beavis and Butthead reboot. It's pretty damn funny while faithful to the original.
This is great. Article also has this tidbit

Here's the logline for the new season: "After years working a propane job in Saudi Arabia to earn their retirement nest egg, Hank and Peggy Hill return to a changed Arlen, Texas to reconnect with old friends Dale, Boomhauer and Bill. Meanwhile, Bobby is living his dream as a chef in Dallas and enjoying his 20s with his former classmates Connie, Joseph and Chane."

I'm 100% in

I'll forever be pissed off they removed the dead body shot but honestly when you type that out in context of the show it makes sense. Def a "good at the time" idea but not in context of KOTH, it's just not that type of show ever.
 
Luanne has been confirmed to have moved away; I imagine they'll retire the character out of respect for Brittany Murphy since she died young and pretty much right as the show ended. That screenshot shows Didi, Cotton Hill's wife and mother of Bobby's uncle (!) Good Hank.

I'm looking forward to this. With Mike Judge and Greg Daniels at the helm, it should be awesome. Bobby's new character design is top-notch.

I'm pretty sure this was one of those urban legend/Mandela effect things. I can't find any actual evidence that there was a grisly shot at the end of that episode.

Horrible news right in the midst of the show coming back: Jonathan Joss (voice of John Redcorn) murdered
I hate living in the south. There's always people that take it too far. His last moments weren't that great either. He was snubbed from the KOTH reunion party. He posted on twitter he would be shining shoes at the entrance of the theater as that is what is father had done. He didnt deserve any of this and was ultimately a great guy.

Seems he was in a bad place mentally between losing his house and dogs in January to a fire plus a history of drug and alcohol abuse. He also crashed a King of the Hill panel on the weekend making a big scene because he wasn't included. So all these things probably just kept piling up to a boiling point with this argument but unless it was self defense with no other option there is no excuse for murdering him and you don't tend to flee the scene if it was necessary self defense. Shame he couldn't get the help he needed.
 
RIP Jonathan Joss. It's messed up that the dude wasn't invited to the event either. Sure he wasn't a main character but he's still one of the people that made Arlen so interesting.
 
So I actually saw Jonathan Joss 3 days ago in Austin at the KofH panel..

He was acting super strange in the mezzanine and interrupted the panel with a pretty crazy little diatribe. He seemed be pretty messed up mentally and was having a homeless dude try and smuggle beer into the theater. Security eventually escorted him out after he had left Mike Judfe and Greg Daniels sitting there speechless...
 
Yeah, I heard he made an awkward/uncomfortable speech for a minute or two and then left. Seems he fell on hard times and I hope that didn't have anything to do with his death.
 
His husband is claiming they were attacked in a hate crime on social media. If there's any truth to the description of events, it's pretty vile that this was done to them.

They say he got weird since his house caught on fire

seems like the shooter was one of the people who's against their relationship. and yeah, if this is true. it's a hate crime pure and simple.

sigh... I never get these people. you're perfectly within your rights to not like something. but if others are like it and it's not affecting you, just stay in your own lane and don't bother them. what is so hard about that?

Probably should start a new thread about his death rather than hijack this King of the Hill reunion thread... but then again he crashed the reunion panel a few days ago so I guess it's appropriate.



As for the statement posted above... it's very much written to incite a certain reaction, especially considering we just started June (aka Pride Month).

According to more reliable reports, he burned his own house down accidentally (thus killing his dogs) because he tried to warm his house with a BBQ pit when his house was deemed uninhabitable and his power was cut off. I feel for him in that regard because I can't imagine how it feels to accidentally kill your own pets... but at the same time, that's such a stupid fucking move to make. A BBQ pit??? Come the fuck on... Edit: His neighbors believe the fire started because he was making a meth lab... fuck's sake.
Gonzales claimed the killing was just the culmination of a long saga of frightening homophobia the couple endured on their street, alleging neighbors had spent "years" threatening to burn their home down, but that cops never intervened.

Residents, however, painted a different picture, telling My San Antonio that Joss was an "erratic" neighbor, whose alarming antics caused them to regularly ignore him for their own safety.

"He would just walk up and down the street … he would just, like, scream," said neighbor Isabel Caballero. "We knew how he was, so we wouldn't disturb him. Even if he looked at us, talked mess to us, we just ignored him."

Others said Joss "wasn't a good neighbor" and would yell how "he was God" until neighbors called the police.

San Antonio cops were called to Joss' home at least 40 times since January 2024, according to the outlet, with complaints ranging from mental health situations, neighbor disturbances and welfare checks.

Those calls culminated with the February fire, which neighbors told TMZ Joss set himself by trying to heat his home with a barbecue pit after its services were cut off because the house had been deemed uninhabitable.

"We all knew it was going to end up like this because of his antics," a neighbor who asked to remain anonymous told My San Antonio.

"It's sad cause this could have been prevented if he had gotten the help he needed."

The "homeless dude" was his boyfriend/husband apparently

Edit: Yep, it seems I was right about his 'husband'. Probably going to play up the 'homophobia' lies to get as many donations as he can and then waste it on meth

....you do realize that this guys being a troublemaker and this shooting beign a hate crime are both entirely possible to be true at the same time correct?

It doesn't matter if he supposedly had a meth lab, it doesn't matter if he was armed, and it doesn't matter if he was mentally unwell. A meth lab doesn't pose enough of an imminent threat to kill someone on the spot, and assuming he had a license to carry, being armed isn't illegal. None of those reasons justify murder.

If they felt he was being a danger to himself or others, they should've called the cops, which it sounds like the cops were involved multiple times, and none of the times warranted any arrests.

According to more reliable reports
Obviously not reliable, as the testimonies are coming from the neighbors, and a neighbor is the one who gunned him down and fled the scene.

....you do realize that this guys being a troublemaker and this shooting beign a hate crime are both entirely possible to be true at the same time correct?
Exactly, he was a troubled person, which is probably why he wasn't invited back for the reboot. But that doesn't discredit the possibility of it being a hate crime.

Whether it was a hate crime or not, this is still going to turn into a culture war where people are going to take sides and attempt to muddy the waters on both ends.

I believe he was in the reboot, joss was at least. He had posted on his socials about joining it last I heard
 
Never watched, is this in the same vein of rick and morty?

No. It's more like a (very good) animated sitcom. More like Married with Children than Rick and Morty. Might be a situation where you just had to be there at the time but it's a great show IMO.

Nah, not sure what the reboot will be like, but the original was more like an animated sitcom. It's made by Mike Judge, who also did Beavis and Butthead, Idiocracy, and Office Space.

King of the Hill is closer in spirit to Office Space than the other two, finding (or creating) absurdity in the mediocrity.

??? Can you point out where I stated or implied his murder was justified? Because I didn't. Stop acting dumb.

So according to you, no matter how many times the police are called on you, you're an angel as long as you're not arrested. You clearly know nothing about police procedure.
Obviously not reliable, as the testimonies are coming from the neighbors, and a neighbor is the one who gunned him down and fled the scene.
I was referring to the police reports as opposed to some meth head that is trying to incite a culture war.

The police deny have stated that there is no evidence of a hate crime. And his meth head boyfriend is the one that's trying to muddy the waters.

Anyway this is my last post in this matter because I'm not going to get swept up in this culture war. I just thought presenting all the information available was important.

I didn't say you did. Do you think his murder was justified?

According to the law, you're innocent until proven guilty.

I was referring to the police reports
No you weren't, you said "more reliable reports" and then referenced unreliable testimony from the neighbors, like how they burned their own house down because they had a meth lab.

Can you show me the police report where they found a meth lab?

The police deny have stated that there is no evidence of a hate crime. And his meth head boyfriend is the one that's trying to muddy the waters.
The only thing the police have said is that their investigation hasn't found any evidence of a hate crime yet. It's still an ongoing investigation.

Anyway this is my last post in this matter because I'm not going to get swept up in this culture war. I just thought presenting all the information available was important.
Good riddance. None of the information you posted was of any importance. Rather than listen to reason, you've chosen to perpetuate the culture war and have clearly planted your flag, considering you keep referring to his husband as:

his meth head boyfriend
