Yeah, Mike Judge is (was?) a big Alex Jones fan and Dale Gribble's character was even influenced by him. I'm surprised those statements haven't come back to bite him in the ass.

Funny thing is, it should've been Johnny Hardwick using his Dale Gribble voice supporting Alex Jones because, you know, Dale Gribble is a conspiracy theorist himself

For one of the Season 1 DVDs they included a supplemental book that showed the "Do's and Dont's" for drawing and animating King of the Hill. Found it in it's entirety from this site that I never heard of. Sadly doesn't seem like I can just download the PDF so if you're one of those lurkers who is reading this in a year well sorry. Remember do not make Peggy sexy you damn horny artists.

I just love looking through this stuff because it elaborate on how much care was put into this cartoon. Oh and a true must watch, Infowars full interview with Mike Judge. It's a good video I think it's the most Mike ever just talks about making KOTH.
So damn funny to remember that Alex Jones once was recognized as a mere Texas goofball since Judge had no problem interacting with him and neither did director Richard Linklater. Those days are long over.

New writers are a given, the original cast of writers has to be in their 50's and 60's by now and it wouldn't be realistic to expect them all to come back. But what the hell does she mean by "sweet spots of the classic?" The first 6 seasons of King of the Hill are close to perfection.

There's a difference between "New Writers" and "A new generation of young writers"

Alex Jones was popular enough to appear in a movie alongside Keanu Reeves, so it's hard to really use that against people effectively.

Specifically, the 2006 Richard Linklater animated movie A Scanned Darkly which also featured Woody Harleson, Wionna Ryder and Robert Downey Jr., while Alex Jones makes a cameo appearance in this scene

He was also in A Waking Life an indie film classic about philosophy. People seem to completely ignore how much leftist media loved Alex until he stopped going after the people they didn't like.

it's too bad that guy had no fucking clue how to use that faux-rotoscope filter, seems like they could have gotten some mileage out of how it sometimes just doesn't work at all and use those to be like, when a character is having a lucid moment or something
