Actor Jonathan Joss — best known for his voice work on the iconic animated TV comedy “King of Hill” was shot dead by a neighbor in Texas, according to a report.

Joss, who voiced “John Redcorn” on the long-running cartoon, got into a argument with the neighbor at his home in San Antonio Sunday night when the neighbor pulled out a gun and shot him several times, according to police.

The unnamed gunman then fled the scene in a vehicle but was arrested by police just a block from the residence.

Even if you were able to ignore the horrible new VA his personality is also off too. He now ONLY talks about conspiracy theories. Whereas it was a large part of personality in the original run it is 100% of him now.

I watched 3-4 episodes last night and this was the biggest issue I had. In every scene with Dale he’s just standing there completely motionless while other characters talk until he chimes in with some conspiracy non sequitur “joke” unrelated to anything going on in the scene, Hank will nod and go “Ok, Dale.” and then the scene continues as if he didn’t say anything.

Honestly it seemed like they’d written the episodes without intending to include Dale and then had to go back to shoehorn him in after changing their minds, that’s how shallow the character comes off.

Nobody cares about a dead pseudo-faggot spic junkie who got kinda famous for pretending to be a red skin.

The real star of this thread has been the creepy pooner "husband". What a psycho liar.

Jonathan Joss's wife is in one of my King of the Hill groups. Any time she ever posted, even before his death, it was only ever about Joss or the character John Redcorn. She hasn't said a thing since June.

She didn't seem to have an actual personality of her own and kept using Joss to get attention for herself. I think she realizes people were getting pissed over how she handled the situation, and not being truthful, so she's stayed silent. I can't see her saying anything else unless she can figure out how try and manipulate the situation again to her favor.

Maybe when the dude who shot Joss is sentenced she'll say something?

There are a few "woke" references which already feel dated as fuck (the gender-neutral bathrooms joke, for example. HEY GUYS, DID YOU KNOW, THAT MODERN AUDIENCES ARE FINE WITH TRANNIES SHITTING NEXT TO WOMEN?

While I'm as anti-trans as it comes, those bathrooms were single occupancy, which, among other things, made the joke pointless.

I'm a literal white nationalist and I didn't find that bathroom joke woke at all lol.

He definitely had Injun blood, you can even tell by looking at him. Apparently had a taste for pooners as well as firewater, though, and was more than merely kind of an asshole.

Ooh, what if she got a C&D or something like that? Even with people catching on to her grift, I dunno how an attention whore like her just goes radio silent otherwise.

Usually you see people methpost like a different flavor of schizopost, but maybe she's the rare pooner who gets tweaked and forgets all about Internet drama in favor of RL drama.

Or she lost her phone.

But you're right: silence from a tweaker, and online silence from a pooner, are rare enough to be suspicious.
