The Dale Gribble Bluegrass Experience: Blue Moon of Kentucky

I clipped together pieces from the bluegrass song from the King of the Hill episode, "The Bluegrass is Always Greener", to make a full-er version of the song. King of the Hill is owned by 20th Century Fox. I DO NOT claim any rights or ownership of any of the animation, voice acting, or source material.

That’s a crap reason to cancel a show. Lots of actors playing parts have died and the show went on. Her character was the least liked anyways

[@treyparnell6314]

No, you’re right. The actor for Peggy is still alive. I believe the actor for Louann passed away tragically but that was a few years after cancellation. KOTH was cancelled because because they were pushing hard for the Cleveland Show. Mike Judge was pissed over the matter because this would end up being a third Seth McFarland program on Adult Swim/Fox or whatever- and would end up failing miserably. I agree, completely. The fact that the KOTH is still getting a lot of fan attention on YT and Hulu is that Proof enough that there was such a huge following of fans.
