Here's a direct comparison video I did of Dale Gribble's actors in the new King of the Hill season.

@sftsquil You should also clarify, they have MIXED in the recordings on episodes. He will literally be halfway through a read as Johnny and then becomes Toby finishing it at times. It’s not a consistent “Johnny did 1-6 and Toby did 7-10” they’re mostly mixed from the first episode on.

@FrogPotent Yeah, you’re 100% right. I did notice Dale flipping from Johnny to Toby mid sentence sometimes before Toby took over full time

@sftsquil Ai would have been a better option

@sftsquil He’s better than Kahn’s unnecessary replacement, that’s for certain

@sftsquil Huss sounded more like OG Dale than Hardwick did for some reason 🤷‍♂️

@sftsquil I didn’t even realize Johnny did the voice for the 1st 6 episodes. He sounds so different than he did before. His pace and voice inflections are just off.

@sftsquil I have to be honest I couldn't tell at all and I thought Johnny sounded much different.

@sftsquil Rip Johnny. You were a legend. However man Toby sounds more like dale of old. Crazy

@sftsquil acceptable given the circumstances around the replacement, unlike Khan.

@sftsquil Sounds very similar if not the same as Johnny. Now thats good recasting

@sftsquil I actually thought Huss did the first few.

@sftsquil It works. It’s not even close to being egregious like when they recast Rick and Morty

@sftsquil Johnny is in episode 7 btw. 7 is his last role as Dale

@sftsquil kahn is so much fucking worse

@sftsquil AH MAN they had him and didn't get to record everything thats sad

@sftsquil Is there a reason why Dale sounds like he’s talking through a tube in the first episode ?

@sftsquil Why would you watch the new KoTH? genuinely curious - I don't support shows that drop their cast because of Obama and USAID era make believe policy shit.

@sftsquil Almost feels like the Johnny Hardwick stuff wasn't finale recordings?

@sftsquil Can someone explain what's with the new voice actor? I just started the show and am on s3, did the OG VA of Dale die or something?

@sftsquil This show is hardcore cursed. 3 people from the show died, the Asian replacement guy for Khan isn't even the right sort of Asian and sounds terrible, the show is flash animation style garbage. Throw this shit straight in the garbitch.

@sftsquil Why does Tony Huss sound more like the original dale than Johnny? Lmao

@sftsquil Uncanny Valley weirdness. All these revivals are garbage.

@sftsquil So…redcorn is in the show after all. I wasn’t sure what to expect, given how his VA was ranting at the cast at the reveal panel. It sounded like there was bad blood there. And then of course, there was his shooting only days later…

@sftsquil Dale he be tweakin , stayin up at night 😭

@sftsquil They both pause at weird times, like they are reading a script and the sentenced ended rather than a smooth flow of conversation.

@sftsquil Toby sounds more like dale but with brain damage

@sftsquil Dale sounds terrible with all due respect. Idk if maybe JH forgot how he got to the voice or just couldn’t get there anymore but I can’t even get through the first episode.. RIP Johnny

@sftsquil Both sound really bad in their own ways. Sad that Hardwick kind of lost the ability to do the voice all these years later.

@sftsquil Toby genuinely did an excellent job imo. He really captured alot of what makes Dale himself

@sftsquil @Tony_Taylor502 yeah Toby Huss did a great job I could barely tell the difference. 👍🏾👍🏾 Still sounds like Dale unlike the Kahn recast voice.

@sftsquil Not bad. Hardwick still did a better job despite his health.

@sftsquil It’s horrible. He went from my favorite character to my least favorite character. It’s almost not tolerable

@sftsquil Toby Huss sounds like the younger Dale

@sftsquil Toby Huss did a really good job. He sounds closer to original series Dale than Johnny did. Maybe Johnny was sick. Still I'm going to miss Johnny. He made my childhood great. RIP Johnny Hardwick you were a legend & I'm glad you could be in some of the revival before the end.
