Adding this to the list of More lovely News and Cool People Dying. Seriously wondering how they handle this, along with no Britanny Murphy and Tom Petty in the reboot. DO they just write them out/off and consider them dead now, recast the voice actors or...what? I don't see how you do a proper reboot without Dale, who's such a central character to the show/neighborhood/alley that it leaves a gaping hole here. Luanne and Lucky I think you can get away with writing out since there's several ways to handle that (they moved, they died in a slip and fall scheme, etc.) but how do you write this show without Dale Gribble? I guess you can make it so he got lung cancer or re-cast him as a dude with one of those throat voice box things but, man, that's loving depressing and totally impossible to make funny.

pixaal posted:I hope they re-order the episodes so everything he recorded is front loaded then have a very special episode where he has to get a voice box. It can be fancy and not sounding all robotic but be different and explain the change easy enough to get through the rest of the season episodes then call it done. It really depends on how they wrote and what lines he's recorded. I had that same idea and, while it would tie in well with his chain smoking, I'm afraid it'd be a little dark tonally and pretty hard to make funny. Still not the worst idea but, man, that's a tough needle to thread right there. And I'd totally watch Boomhauer: Texas Ranger with special guest, Chuck Norris.

Did Hardwick also do the voice for the loudspeaker announcer guy? Because it sounds so much like him that early on I thought he Dale supposed to be the announcer.

JAMOOOL posted:yeah its definitely him and I too have wondered if it was supposed to be Dale When I finally figured it out, it was an episode where Dale was actually visible in the scene but the announcer was still Gribbleing.

Extra Large Marge posted:I've never been able to finish the ZZ Top reality show episode. It's just too stupid. This is by far my least favorite episode. Pigmalion is right there in second place. A lot of the episodes people are listing here seem fine to me, even if they're not top shelf offerings on the whole or compared to others. KotH almost entirely managed to dodge the Simpsons' weird issue of having celebrity guests playing themselves and having to figure out a plot device to where Hank or Peggy gets caught up with them like Bart, Lisa, Homer and Marge often do. Usually, the show had their guest stars playing original characters, with a few notable exceptions, and I think that overall the show was better for it instead of figuring out a way for Bobby and Kahn Jr to meet Lady Gaga backstage or whatever. I think that even the best episodes of the Simpsons that used guest voices did it in a way where the guest wasn't actually, say, Michael Jackson, Dustin Hoffman or Danny Devito and, instead, took the opportunity to use a new original character. Sometimes a show can get away with casting a well known celebrity as themselves but not often. Especially when tying them into the plot is gimmicky and convoluted. It's why Tom Petty worked so well when he could have just as easily been seen as stunt casting.

Wonder if Hank likes to shoot pool Also what his thoughts are on frisbee golf because I'm imagining an episode where Bobby starts playing that after deciding he dislikes regular golf.

Bismack Billabongo posted:Honestly with the VA for dale gone i would have preferred it if they didn’t go forward on the reboot. Unless they go for the “dale has a robot voice from smoking too much” angle Or just write him out as dying from lung cancer and then have the rest of the gang dealing with what I'm sure is an utterly insane will that he left which can only be found via treasure hunt. Hundreds of thousands of dollars buried somewhere near Area 51 left for his alien son.

Bread Zeppelin posted:Is Hank's fixation on propane meant to be a way to show that he is an incredibly bland person, or did the writers not understand Texas and its love of wood smoked bbq? After living in Texas, I don't see how Hank could have had any friends with how much he talks about "tasting the meat and not the heat." He would have been shunned like a pariah for wanting to "bbq" on propane. I think it's as simple as propane giving him a real career, getting him out of retail and since he's a hard worker (I tell ya what) who always listens to his boss, he just bought into whatever Buck Strickland said about it. To the point that he centers a lot of his identity around it. It'd be like if I started working for Apple and bought into their bullshit, where Android phones and PC's were inferior products worthy of mockery. I mean...it would if I were like Hank. My grandfather worked for Coca Cola for decades back when you could work at a company for 40 years, work your way up and collect a pension and Pepsi products were strictly forbidden in the house and mocked at every turn. I think he actually believed that Pepsi was a bastard

Milo and POTUS posted:How much was peggy making anyway? I know being a teacher in texas probably plays garbageola but a sub was probably making much shittier. does she bankroll her own schemes? She was out in front of the feet pictures gravy train but never took advantage of her ground floor status. I doubt she makes much of anything, really and it's kind of borne out with the Megalife episode or whatever it was. SAme with the Mensa episode. Peggy getting caught up in an MLM and all that motivational smoke blowing bullshit they peddle but not just simply setting up her own fetish website is pretty on point for the character. She seems to do a lot of work as a mom and handling domestic responsibilities though and that's worth a lot.

snergle posted:you cant call him goodhank that makes it sound like im badhank. Mike Judge is so great about making the mundane noticeable without ever really leaning on stereotypes to pull it off. His humor is almost always understated and borderline subtle/deadpan, but he finds the humor in the regular, ordinary behaviors that largely define people, how others perceive them and that viewers can instantly identify with. Beavis and Butthead is a great example. Buckley is another. Same with Milton from Office Space and several characters in Extract and certainly Silicon Valley. EVERYONE knows (or knew) teenagers like B&B or Buckley but none of them are written in a way that's a hard sell or reduced entirely to a simple catch phrase (even though they have them) or reduces them to being one dimensional. He can also seamlessly write and introduce characters that seem utterly bizarre but remain relatable; since people ARE bizarre and strange but usually not in over the top ways that can be printed on a BAZINGA t-shirt.

Always got a kick of Luanne using a penguin and an octopus for her Bible Puppet Show when Noah's Ark was right there. I need to check out the new B&B stuff. What do they do instead of watch MTV? Rag on reality TV and YT videos or something? Scroll their phones? Play CoD? Where's a good place to watch the new ones?

"Who? Who in the media tricked you?" is a line I still use from time to time. Also, I remember accidentally returning a porno to Blockbuster one time so that was funny. My local video rental store learned I enjoy watching women giving blowjobs.
