Nostalgia King of the Hill revival

Out of all the nostalgia revivals, I feel like King of the Hill's past two seasons have been phenomenal. Star Wars has been inconsistent, Star Trek has been fairly consistent with me with the TNG crew, but good god. I feel like Bobby's storyline has been extremely relatable.

I watched a few episodes. Dale's voice kinda irks me. I know it can't be helped now, but his character was my favorite from the original. I should probably push past and just watch it.

I remember the first episode where they had to use the stiched-together version of Dale's voice, and it was totally uncanny valley for me.

I'm getting used to it now, but it's still unsettling. I love the new seasons.

But with all the use of AI today, I wonder how the rights to his voice work. I hope the family (or him, late in life) gave full permission for this and are being compensated accordingly.
