Obit Updates: Bob’s Burgers Sends Off Paul Reubens ; Johnny Hardwick Recorded “Some” Lines For King of the Hill’s Hulu Reboot

 

FOX aired a remembrance card to celebrate the life of the recently departed Paul Reubens. Paul was a guest star in an episode of the show called “Amelia” and FOX honored Paul’s recent passing by re-airing that episode and including this art piece as part of the showing.

In the aforementioned Bob’s Burgers episode, Louise takes a class assignment — and a few unhelpful comments by Wayne — very personally; Bob hires a masseur-in-training to give Linda a massage for Mother’s Day. Reubens portrayed the voice of “Pat” in the episode. 

Synopsis:

Bob runs Bob’s Burgers with the help of his wife and their three kids. Business may be slow, but they never give up hope.

With the recent news of the passing of the legendary King of the Hill voice Johnny Hardwick (Dale Gribble), fans were left wondering what would be had of one of the more iconic characters of the show when the series returns for a revival starting in 2024. In fact, this is the fourth actor that is now not expected to be part of the entirety of the series which also includes Tom Petty and Brittany Murphy who had voiced Lucky and Luanne respectively, and Toby Huss returning as Kahn Souphanousinphone, for I don’t know why reasons.

That said, TVLine is reporting that Johnny had in fact recorded some lines for the upcoming King of the Hill reboot, however, it is not known how much he will be part of the show that revolves around a present-day take on the legendary franchise. The rest of the cast and crew are expected to reprise their roles, though, most of the writers are NOT returning from the OG series.

Synopsis:

King of the Hill depicts the life and times of Hank Hill (Mike Judge), his family and their neighbors in the fictional suburb of Arlen, Texas, the heartland of America. A hard-working, loyal family man and proud Texan, Hank is assistant manager of Strickland Propane. He’s a blue-collar Everyman who sees himself as the voice of common sense and reason in a world of incompetent sales clerks, meddling bureaucrats and do-good liberals.
