If you've been living under a rock and have never heard of King of the Hill, it is an animated series about the lives of Hank Hill and his friends and family, in the small Town of Arlen Texas. It's unlike any show that's been on T.V. It's a more real life feel to it and more subtle jokes, while being hilarious.

You should try watching some episodes; it's on every weeknight from 9 to 10 pm eastern time on adult swim. You might find it kind of slow at first, but King of the Hill is the type of show that grows on you the more you watch it.

His biggest passions include moving his law, supporting his country, and of course selling propane and propane acessires. He is a big believer in tradition and family values. He tries to live hardworking, wholesome life, but often this is interpreted by problems caused his friends/neighbors/coworkers ect. He has a narrow urethra.

Yeah I know, I was pissed. At least it had a good run, with 13 seasons.

[VitaminAG]

This show pissed me off. Well, Hank did. Not sure why. He just......did.

I was playing Modern Warfare 2 splitscreen at my friend's house one day with him and his little brother. It was a tac knife match and I had the riot shield with marathon.

I just kept running and each time I got stabbed in the shield on my back I would do this

BAAAAHHAAAAAA

[Bat-shit]

I like Futurama and Family Guy the best.

[smithy69]

I love this show. It rarely comes on where I live. Well, I shouldn't say that, it's on every night, but what I mean is that it's on so late that I can't watch it on school nights.

That's the best GIF ever, next to the Seinfeld one of course.

When I was younger I never really got into watching this. I've watched a few episodes and liked them, haven't made it into a ritual to watch it though.

Plus, it's strange that Hank and Peggy remind me of my step grandfather and my grandmother.

[Mr. Sun]

I grew up with this. I always enjoyed watching it. It wasn't too action-y it was a nice slow show to watch every now and then.
One of the best shows in history no doubt.

Oh and when Peggy speaks Spanish she doesn't know what shes saying right? I remember a few times she'll have subtitles but its even better when you know the language and hear what she says.

[dirty harry]

I started watching this after hearing about it getting cancelled, one of the better animated sitcoms.

[Shoupie]

Hank is the perfect American.

[OompaL]

I grew up on a farm in a real rinky-dink rural part of the midwest. This show pretty perfectly nailed the culture, the ideals, everything. Yes, greatly exaggerated, but still damn close to hitting it right on the head.

Also there's propane in my urethra

[X-tra]

Was waiting for this thread to come. Thanks dude.

Have a derp Hank face.

[phobia-_-]

I used to watch it every night on adult swim with my last roommate, it's one of the best and I can't think of a bad episode.

it's impossible to not like boomhauer

[X-tra]

Truth is, Dale and Boomhauer are the best characters from the show.

Can someone make this into a avatar? I tried to but it won't move.

[QUOTE=X-tra;32330704]Truth is, Dale and Boomhauer are the best characters from the show.[/QUOTE]

I kind of don't even care about Boomhauer. He's mostly a two-dimensional character - not a lot of development.

[Trooth]

I watched this when I was a kid but I didn't really get most of the jokes until I was older. Like I assumed as a kid that the creator of the show must be exactly like Hank, and didn't realize that the writing kinda mocks Hank half the time.

How can you not care about Boomhaur. He's hilarious.

That's just it : So far since the begining of the serie, he's the only character that has never changed personality once. Everytime you see Boomhauer giving his two cents, you can't help but crack up a smile.

[pie_is_good]

Best portrait of American life on television.

I found that song Chuck Mangione always used to play on the show. Puts me in a good mood whenever I hear it.

[J4censolo]

I love this show but I can easily see how most people wouldn't like it at first. I can't really find a way to describe the humor in this show, but it's usually you either enjoy it or you don't. It's mostly subtle and hardly up front comedy. Most of the characters you just gotta love for who they are instead of being annoyed by them, like Hank in real life would come across as a thick headed Texan but in the show his stereotypes make him funny.

Anyways my point being it's hardly like most other shows on T.V., but that certainly doesn't mean it's bad.

Have some vidya;

Hank is definitely my favorite character in the entire show. Dale is hilarious but I love Hank the most. His obsession with mowing his lawn, how passionate he is about propane and his truck, and of course his narrow urethra.

Oh yeah and DurhamRockerz is the best YTPer for this show.

I saw "Weird Al" Yankovic in concert a few days ago. Between songs, he'd play videos that he's made/starred in/been referenced in while he and the band change costumes. This was one of them, and I laughed until I cried.
