Dale Gribble is the conspiracy-obsessed exterminator from King of the Hill, the long-running American animated sitcom created by Mike Judge and Greg Daniels. His panicked, over-the-top delivery made him a favourite for reaction clips, and short scream moments from the show have circulated on soundboards, YouTube edits, and short-form video for years. The clip works because Dale is already established as a character who overreacts to ordinary danger, so hearing him scream instantly signals comic panic without needing any context from the episode itself.
