  3. Really sad to see this his voice was iconic to me. I’m not sure if he was ever associated with the upcoming reboot but I hope they pay homage to him.

  4. I honestly associate him more with Parks And Recreation, but damn that sucks he is dead.

  5. He voiced John Redcorn and was 59 years old when he died, which means that he was only 28 when the series began.

  6. I’d unseal an Egyptian tomb before taking a voice acting job on King of the Hill at this point.

  7. For every “good guy with a gun” is about 20 idiots with their finger on the trigger already

  8. Damn. From what I remember his house along with 3 of his dogs burned down earlier this year. Guy had a pretty rough go lately. Sad news.

  10. He was Chief Ken, the casino owner, on Parks and Rec.

    Hops the shooter gets a hefty sentence. Shooting your neighbor is absolutely insane.

    Rest in peace.

  11. I just read yesterday that he went on a tirade at some event recently, so this is mind blowing to read today.

  13. NO NOT JOHN REDCORN 😭 AND CHIEF KEN HOTATE 😭

    First Dale and now John Redcorn 😭 which KOTH actor is next 😭

  16. This one really hit home. I got to meet him in college and seemed so kind and friendly. RIP 😔

  17. Probably went something like this: “You parked on the curb in front of my house. Now you need to die and I need to spend the rest of my life in prison.”

    People fucking suck.

  19. “There are two things I know about white people: they love Rachel Ray, and they are terrified of curses.”

  20. I wonder if he had some things going on. It sounds like he recently crashed a presser with some of the cast and was ranting about not being included – then this?

  22. Holy shit, he just crashed the panel a few days ago. That poor man.

  23. is anyone left a live to do a reboot? we are down like 4 or 5 major voice actors now.

  24. I work at Dollar General right down the street from his house. He was a little bit eccentric in real life but was always kind to me. Gonna miss that crazy man.

  25. Wow.. right after I saw the preview for the new season unbelievable

  26. Oh wow, if I’m not mistaken they recently announced a new season of the show as well. SMH

  28. RIP Ken Hotate
    Let’s definitely keep making it easier for people to carry LETHAL weapons so that they can win arguments by murdering their opponents. This world is fucked and Texas in particular – life long Texan.

  30. RIP but man do I hate the passive voice in headlines like these.

  32. Is King of the Hill the modern Poltergeist? It seems cursed.

  33. GOT A HOLE IN MY POCKET WHERE MY MONEY SHOULD GO!

  34. Unfortunately, it’s outcomes such as these that lead me to have no desire to know my neighbors.

  35. This is heartbreaking :/ I saw the thread earlier about hoping the 911 call wasn’t for his block too and hoped it wasn’t true.
