How does Dale not figure out Joseph is not his?

I have been watching the show for years and I was watching an episode last night and I really just can't believe he never figured out that Joseph is not his.  That would have been a good way to end the series.

Dale's an idiot. He'll never figure it out unless Nancy or Hank tell him.

 

Subconsciously he knows, he had a dream of a native American man making love to his wife and he thought Joseph was an alien at one point, but he's too dimwitted to interrupted these clues himself.

If Fox or ABC ever resurrect the show, I'm hoping that they'll reveal it to Dale. They could do a full five episodes or direct to DVD movie based around that event.

Although KOTH has ended,

FOX said there are 4 unaired episodes left to air in syndication,

and it's rumored that in one of the episodes

Dale will discover the affair, and if he discovers the affair he'll probably figure out Joseph isn't his

the part about the extra 4 episodes is true for sure,

 

but

I'm not 100 % sure about the Dale discovering the affair part,

but I really hope it is true

In the series finale Dale did find out about the affair, so I'm pretty sure that also means he found out Joseph isn't his biological son...

I think the joke has always been  that Dale spends so much time coming up with and following conspiracy theories that's he's ignorant of things that should be  obvious.  Not only has he done this in regards to Joseph, he has done this countless other times over the course of the series to explain things that should be simple to figure out.

Yeah in the finale, it is made clear that Dale found out.. So that's where the rumor came from, so it may be shown in one of those episodes..

When did this happen? If I recall, Dale was just giving Nancy a massage for a headache and saying that he doesn't have John Redcorn's healing skills.

Upon research I've found that in one of the earlier KoTH episodes Dales suspects Redcorn is gay.. So I guess that explains the extra ignorance..

Remeber guys, we're talking about the guy who beleives in a lot of weird crap!

Dale is an idiot, but a loveable one at that, part of me hopes he never finds out.. I mean, he's been more of a father figure than John Redcorn has ever been! :smileywink:

Exactly; Dale genuinely healing Nancy and making that offhand remark about John Redcorn is how we find out that he's now aware of their affair...

Although, technically Dale finds out about the affair before the finale—specifically in the first of the four episodes that FOX left un-aired...

They should have played that episode instead of the one were Bobby was being a boy toy.

Dale did sort of figure it out, but rather than admit to himself that his wife cheated on him, he explained it away as aliens planting his seed in his wife while he was out of town.  He also thinks John Redcorn's daughter is the result of aliens.

 

 

Edit:  Atleast before the series finale.

hEY John Redcorn is a liscended message therapists(wink, wink). He s agood businessman. That was a hilarious episode. where Joseph is all trynna fell up on his "sister',LOL. I cant believe Dale didnt find out. Waited the whole episode to see if he find out, hes a victim of his own ignorance i guess, and its not like his neighbors are gonna tell him.

dale knows exactly what happened.  did you ever see the episode where joseph and bobby run away to marfa?  dale pretends he doesn't know after he admits it and then makes up an alien abduction story that you can tell he is faking (which is odd for dale cuz he really believes that stuff but something in his voice and the way he was talking to hank give it away) just to keep it a secret. he uses his paranoia as an excuse so joseph doesn't find out cuz he talked himself into a corner and tells joseph aliens are his father so they go out to a desert to try to get abducted and dale even plays out the episode having slipped up what he said to hank (but it's only recognizable in the way he is acting) and saying a completely different thing to joseph. he almost screams john redcorn is his father.  and if you'd rather believe in your heart that dale is a complete fool, i guess its still a secret, but if you want to believe he is doing it for joseph, the paranoia scheme finally has some kind of meaning other than dale being a complete fool.

the short version is dale knows he just never told anybody

Yes.  Bill meets a woman who has two children, and they move in with them for a while.  Dale gets weird vibes from the girl, and plucks a peice of her hair to check the DNA.  Her DNA shows she has the same father as Joseph, so Dale concludes the aliens also impregnated Bill's gf.  Dale gets Jon Redcorn to seduce her, and she leaves Bill for Jon Redcorn.

 

It was in the episode  "Untitled Blake McCormack Project".

The ultimate joke would be that Dale knew a long time ago and is just messing with his friends heads by acting all innocent and dropping inuendos all the time.
