The show's title card. From left to right: Ladybird, Bobby, Hank, Peggy, and Luanne King of the Hill is an American animated series created by Mike Judge and Greg Daniels , that ran from January 12, 1997 to September 13, 2009 on FOX. It centers on the Hills, a small-town Methodist family in Arlen , Texas. It attempts to retain a realistic approach, seeking humor in the conventional or mundane aspects of everyday life. Judge and Daniels conceived the series after a run with Judge's Beavis and Butt-head on MTV, and the series debuted on the Fox Network on January 12, 1997, becoming a hit early on.

The series' popularity has also led to syndication around the world, including every night on Cartoon Network's late night programming block Adult Swim. The show has risen to become one of Fox's longest-running series, and the second longest-running American animated series, behind The Simpsons . In 2007, it was named by Time magazine as one of the top 100 greatest television shows of all time. The title theme was written and performed by The Refreshments. King of the Hill has won two Emmy Awards and has been nominated for seven since its inception. Contents History Conception In early 1995, after the successful run of Beavis and Butt-head on MTV, Mike Judge co-created King of the Hill with former Simpsons writer Greg Daniels . Judge was a former resident of Garland, a suburb of Dallas , Texas considered the basis for the setting of the series, the fictional Arlen . Mike Judge conceived the idea for the show, drew the main characters, and wrote a pilot script. Fox teamed the cartoonist with an experienced prime-time TV writer.

Greg Daniels rewrote the pilot script and created several important characters that did not appear in Judge's first draft (including Luanne and Cotton ), as well as some characterization ideas (e.g., making Dale Gribble a conspiracy theorist). Initial success After its debut, the series became a huge success for Fox and was named one of the best television series by various publications, including Entertainment Weekly, Time and TV Guide. For the 1997-1998 season, the series became one of Fox's highest rated programs and nearly outperformed The Simpsons in ratings. During the fifth and sixth seasons , Mike Judge and Greg Daniels became less involved with the show. They eventually focused on the show again, though Greg Daniels steadily became more involved with other projects. Facing cancellation The series' tenth season was largely composed of episodes that did not air the previous season due to frequent sporting event preemptions. During the tenth season, in 2005, the show was scheduled to be canceled; however, it managed to attract high ratings and was renewed. Fox renewed the series for seasons eleven and twelve , making it the second longest-running animated television series after The Simpsons.

The thirteenth season episode " Lucky See, Monkey Do " became the first episode of the series to be produced in widescreen high-definition when it aired on February 8, 2009. Settings, characters, and themes Setting King of the Hill is set in the fictional town of Arlen, Texas . In a 1995 interview prior to the show's debut, Judge described the setting as "a town like Humble." In a more recent interview, Judge has cited Richardson, Texas, a Dallas suburb, as the specific inspiration for Arlen. Despite the fictitious locale, the show strives to portray the region accurately, going so far as to have annual research trips to Texas for the writing staff. Time magazine praised the authentic portrayal as the "most acutely observed, realistic sitcom about regional American life bar none". Arlen includes settings such as Rainey Street , where the Hills reside, and Strickland Propane , the business where Hank works. Also included are parodies of well-known businesses, such as Mega-Lo Mart (a parody of big-box stores), Luly's (a parody of Luby's), and Bazooms (a parody of Hooters).

Most of the children in the show attend Tom Landry Middle School (named after the former Dallas Cowboys coach). Early in the series, the school is referred to as being in the Heimlich County School District (according to markings on the school buses), though in later seasons this is changed to Arlen Independent School District. The school's mascot is a longhorn steer (named after the University of Texas Longhorns). The local country club is the Nine Rivers Country Club , though this club exclusively admits Asian-Americans. Characters King of the Hill depicts an average middle-class family and their lives in a typical American town. It documents the Hills' day-to-day-lives in the small Texas town of Arlen , exploring modern themes such as parent-child relationships, friendship, loyalty, and justice. As an animated sitcom, however, King of the Hill's scope is generally larger than that of a regular sitcom. Hank Hill The family patriarch is Hank Hill, assistant manager of Strickland Propane , and salesman of "propane and propane accessories," who is obsessed with his lawn, propane, and the Dallas Cowboys. He is uncomfortable with intimacy and sexuality but has a healthy relationship with his wife, as well as the rest of his family.

Hank's trademark sigh in times of discomfort or exasperation, his scream of "Bwah!" when startled, also when is disgusted he whispers "ugha" the phrase "I tell you what!" are running gags on the series; additionally, when someone angers him, he tends to respond with, "I'm gonna kick your ass!", though, he rarely resorts to this. In contrast with his emotional distance from members of his family, he dotes unashamedly on his aging Bloodhound, Ladybird . Peggy Hill Hank is married to Peggy Hill, a substitute Spanish teacher who has a poor grasp of the language (referring to it phonetically as "es-puh-nole"). Peggy is also a freelance newspaper columnist, real estate agent, notary public, and Boggle champion. She often displays her naïveté and arrogance with an inflated sense of her intelligence and appearance. She considers herself knowledgeable, clever, and very physically attractive. More often than not, Peggy's ego will preempt better judgement, leading to actions that, while initially "helping" her, ultimately lead to a path of agonizing realization of what she has done.

Bobby Hill The two have a son, Bobby Hill, an overweight 13-year-old, who wants to be a famous prop comic when he is older. Although he is not particularly attractive or intelligent, Bobby has an excellent sense of self-esteem; he is not ashamed of his body or his often sub-par performance in sports or other activities. Bobby lacks his father's athletic prowess and dislikes most sports, but has participated- often in a peripheral way- in wrestling, baseball, and track at Tom Landry Middle School . He has also attempted to play football and soccer. He has an offbeat sense of humor that clashes with Hank's more collected and conservative manner. Such sentiments are fueled by Bobby's liking of activities more often viewed as traditionally feminine, such as cooking, high fashion, and dolls. Hank's discomfort with Bobby's proclivities is a regular narrative element in the series, and is manifested with remarks like "That boy ain't right." Luanne Platter Luanne Platter is Peggy's niece. She came to live with the Hills after her mother, Leanne , was sent to prison for stabbing Luanne's father (Peggy's brother) with a fork.

Thus, her full name is Luanne Leanne Platter, as heard on the episode " Edu-macating Lucky ". Dale Gribble Dale Gribble is the next door neighbor of Hank and Peggy Hill. He is an exterminator, bounty hunter, chain-smoker, gun fanatic, and paranoid believer of almost all conspiracy theories. Mike Judge and Greg Daniels named him in tribute to Dan "Gribble" Costello, a close friend of Judge. The character himself is loosely based on William S. Burroughs and Hunter S. Thompson, both of whom were avid gun collectors and also wrote pieces on conspiracy theory. Some of his few Dale-isms are "S'Go," which he says whenever he wants a person to go somewhere with him, and "sh-sh-shaa" to mark a point of accomplishment (such as releasing an eagle to chase away some pigeons - "sh-shaaa!" - only to have the eagle turn on him). Bill Dauterive Bill was Hank's best friend in high school and now lives across the street from him. In his younger years, Bill was extremely fit, athletic, competent and with a full head of hair.

Now bald and pot-bellied, he works as a barber for the U.S. Army and continues to pine for his wife, Lenore , who left him. He remains lovelorn and frequently sad, and is attracted to Peggy. Whenever he is feeling down, he lets out a pitiful squeal before launching into a harmful binge. Bill is also a fluent French-speaking native of Louisiana and a family member of a wealthy chili pepper plantation. Jeff Boomhauer Boomhauer (who is always addressed by his last name) was high school friends with Hank, Dale and Bill. He has a deep, all-over suntan and speaks in a barely understandable mumble, though when he sings bluegrass songs, his voice is clear. He is a committed bachelor sometimes depicted as promiscuous with his various girlfriends. According to the commentary on the Pilot episode dvd, Boomhauer's unique speaking style was based on a voicemail left on Mike Judge's answering machine.

Hank is often besieged by the idiosyncrasies of society, but he finds (some) serenity in his home-life with his wife, substitute Spanish teacher Peggy, his awkward son Bobby and his live-in niece-in-law Luanne Platter. Adding flavor to the ordinary dish the series serves are Hank's friends, divorcee military barber Bill Dauterive, paranoid Dale Gribble (with an obsession with Government conspiracy theories) and gibberish spouting Boomhauer.

It took me a while to figure it out, but now I'm addicted to it. The characters are brilliant and a lot of the jokes are unexpectedly hilarious. This is one of the few shows that can take me by surprise with it's genius humor. Most of the characters are funny, but Peggy cracks me up with almost everything she says.

She has an unshakable self-confidence and she'll sacrifice anybody (including her son) to win her silly little battles. My favorite episode is the one in which the Hills go to Japan. Classic! I hope "King of the Hill" sticks around for a long time. 69 of 84 people found this review helpful. Was this review helpful to you? Yes 10 episodes that made King Of The Hill one of the most human cartoons ever · TV Club 10 · The A.V. Club Share Tweet With so many new series popping up on streaming services and DVD every day, it gets harder and harder to keep up with new shows, much less the all-time classics. With TV Club 10 , we point you toward the 10 episodes that best represent a TV series, classic or modern. If you watch these 10, you’ll have a better idea of what that series was about, without having to watch the whole thing. These are not meant to be the 10 best episodes, but rather the 10 most representative episodes. The definitive moment in King Of The Hill’s 13-year history didn’t even occur on the show itself.

It happened in 2006, in “Cartoon Wars Part II,” South Park’s landmark evisceration of Family Guy. Toward the end of the episode, Cartman and Kyle slap-fight their way through the Fox studios, eventually making their way through the King Of The Hill offices as the staff keeps quietly working, heads down, while a banner celebrating the show’s 11th season hangs above their heads. In an episode that sees long-running, revolutionary animated series—South Park, Family Guy, and The Simpsons—pitted against each other in high-concept, ultra-cartoony fashion, King Of The Hill is the unobtrusive outsider, disinterested in participating in or commenting on the current trends in animated comedy. King Of The Hill has discipline, humility, and steadiness hardwired into its foundation—they’re among the defining features of series patriarch Hank Hill—and is consequently remembered as the low-key introvert among its loud, colorful, in-your-face animated brethren.

In fact, one of the most common observations/criticisms leveled at the series is that it doesn’t even need to be animated; its characters are decidedly un-cartoony, right down to their muted colors and lack of animated energy (though the show’s animation would get increasingly dynamic as the years went on), and the situations they find themselves in are no different or more fantastical than would be found on any given live-action family sitcom. But while King Of The Hill’s reputation as a steadfast, down-to-earth series rightly reflects the heart and humanity at the show’s center, it belies how uproariously funny the series can be, often because of that very humanity. It’s the exact intersection of the comic sensibilities of its two creators: Mike Judge’s ability to find the bizarrely hilarious in the mundane (as seen in Beavis And Butt-head, Office Space, and many others) meets Greg Daniels’ character- and relationship-based humor (as seen in The Office and such Daniels-penned Simpsons episodes as “Lisa’s Wedding,” “Bart Sells His Soul,” and “Secrets Of A Successful Marriage”).

King Of The Hill’s characters aren’t funny because they tell perfectly crafted jokes or make pop-culture references or constantly get themselves into ridiculous situations; they’re funny because they have real hopes, flaws, and limitations that satirize the absurdity of everyday life while simultaneously celebrating it. Granted, over the course of 13 seasons and 250-plus episodes, the show saw its fair share of silly conceits and contrived setups—and got fairly repetitive in the final seasons—but the best, most memorable episodes were those that explored the conflicts and bonds that defined the Hill family and their neighbors on Rainey Street in the suburban oasis of Arlen, Texas. Hank Hill (Mike Judge) is a perfectly conceived central character, a staunch traditionalist whose deep humanity and pragmatic wisdom keeps him from being a conservative caricature. He’s the anti-Homer Simpson, a clenched, steady-as-she-goes figure striving to make as few waves as possible as he makes his way through life, and failing in the face of family, friends, and liberal giblet-heads who test his stoicism over and over.

Hank’s spirited, strong-willed wife Peggy (Kathy Najimy) pushes against him with her high ideals and even higher self-regard, and his dreamy, sensitive son Bobby (Pamela Adlon) constantly challenges his conceptions of manhood and father-son relationships. His war-hero father, Cotton (Toby Huss), does this as well, from a decidedly different angle. (Figuratively, that is; literally, he’s about the same height as Bobby, since the Japanese blew off his shins in WWII.) His niece-by-marriage Luanne, brilliantly voiced by the late Brittany Murphy, is a flibbertigibbet who makes Hank deeply uncomfortable while simultaneously tapping into his repressed fatherly affection. And his childhood friends-turned-neighbors—conspiracy-minded gun-nut Dale, sad-sack slob Bill, and tranquil fast-talker Boomhauer—are just the right level of incompetent to allow Hank to repeatedly play the hero/voice of reason without being a complete spoilsport all the time.

“Hank fixes everything” would become one of King Of The Hill’s most overused story templates, but it paid great dividends, especially in the series’ early going, when it could still lead to new character revelations and growth. Similarly, King Of The Hill went back to the “Hank versus society” well over and over, eventually becoming too predictable; but at its best, it found unexpected angles on the tension between conservative and liberal ideals, and remained admirably levelheaded in its political leanings throughout its run. These are quintessential King Of The Hill episode types and must be considered in any list of the show’s most representative episodes, but the series’ many charms are more readily found in the episodes focusing on the relationships and conflicts between its core characters. These 10 episodes survey the ties that bind King Of The Hill’s characters, and make them some of the most quietly funny, human cartoons ever. “Keeping Up With Our Joneses” (season one, episode 10) When Hank catches Bobby trying a cigarette, the ol’ “Make him smoke an entire carton to teach him a lesson” trick backfires wildly.

Not only does Bobby get addicted, the episode causes reformed smokers Hank and Peggy to backslide, providing a nice glimpse at the early, smoke-saturated years of their relationship in the process. Soon the nicotine-addled family members are at each other’s throats as they try to kick the habit together. Their collective withdrawal and the petty sniping it induces provides a great spotlight for Luanne, who finds herself in the unusual position of being the voice of reason as her adopted family threatens to tear itself apart. (“I am sick of dysfunctional families. I came from one and I’m not gonna let it happen to you. Function! Function, damn you!”) Her ultimate solution is straight out of the sitcom playbook, but it works beautifully, leading to a sweet, almost cinematic conclusion. “Hilloween” (season two, episode four) The Hills are a churchgoing, God-fearing family, and while King Of The Hill occasionally played this for laughs, it tended to be better when pitting Hank’s no-nonsense belief structure against religious hypocrisy and zealotry.

(See the great season-eight episode “Reborn To Be Wild” for another classic example of this.) “Hilloween” puts Hank in the unusual position of being anti-religion—the hysterical, evangelical version of it, anyway—when it threatens his beloved Halloween, in the form of Bible-thumping Junie Harper (Sally Field), who accuses Hank of being a Satanist for supporting the Devil’s Holiday. This is a prototypical “Hank-versus-the-idiots” plotline, but it gets extra mileage out of the template by putting the impressionable Bobby and Luanne on the side of Junie Harper. Hank’s eventual reconciliation with his son is much more satisfying than his saving Halloween, and the fact that he does both while wearing a child-sized devil costume makes it even better. “And They Call It Bobby Love” (season three, episode two) Bobby has a solid claim on the title of King Of The Hill’s flat-out funniest character (much of which can be attributed to Pamela Adlon’s Emmy-winning performance, a highlight in a series full of top-shelf voice acting), but he may never be funnier than when he’s heartbroken.

Bobby’s fanciful, sensitive nature makes his first foray into puppy love endearingly awkward—as when he woos his lady love by imitating a crotchety Jewish man—and makes his heartbreak, well, heartbreaking. But his eventual triumph over that sorrow is where Bobby really shines, consuming a 72-ounce steak in front of the vegetarian older girl who dumped him. It’s a perfectly King Of The Hill-style victory, and remains one of the best scenes in the show’s history. Rightly so, “And They Call It Bobby Love” netted King Of The Hill its sole Emmy for Outstanding Animated Program. “Peggy Hill: The Decline And Fall” (season four, episode one) Peggy is one of King Of The Hill’s hardest characters to love; her ignorance of her own inadequacies—such as her ability to “habla Espa-nol”—is a recurring joke, but it can make her seem grating when it’s not accompanied a healthy serving of humble pie. The season-four première, which picks up from a cliffhanger where Peggy falls to earth from a plane when her skydiving parachute fails to open, forces Peggy to confront her limitations in very literal fashion.

She insists that being in a full-body cast won’t affect her ability to run a household, but quickly realizes she’s as helpless as Hank’s new baby brother G.H. (short for Good Hank), Cotton’s newborn son who’s staying with the Hills while his postpartum mother and disinterested father get their act together. It’s a chaotic episode that gets as close to wacky as KOTH comes—mostly due to the presence of the ever-obnoxious Cotton—but it ends on a quiet note of triumph that strengthens everything that comes before it. “Movin’ On Up” (season four, episode 16) The relationship between Hank and Luanne is one of King Of The Hill’s most reliably affecting, with Hank’s reluctance to be the father figure Luanne so desperately needs forcing them both to grow a little as they struggle to understand each other. In this episode, Luanne chafes against Hank’s overbearing house rules, moving out of his den into her own place across the street, where her insufferable roommates soon force her into the role of reluctant house dictator.

Luanne is probably the character who changed most over King Of The Hill’s long run, and this is a watershed moment in both her personal growth and in her relationship with Hank. It’s also a great showcase for Brittany Murphy, who was nominated for an Annie for her voice work in this episode. “I Don’t Want To Wait For Our Lives To Be Over” (season five, episode three) As the show went on, King Of The Hill gave spotlight episodes to Bobby’s two closest friends: Joseph Gribble, the half-American Indian offspring of Dale’s wife and her “masseuse,” whom Dale assumes is his biological son, and Connie Souphanousinphone, the overachieving Laotian girl-next-door who was Bobby’s girlfriend for a time. But this episode centers on them as a trio, as they lurch uncomfortably together into teenager-dom. Sparked by Joseph returning from summer camp six inches taller and with a new, manly voice, Bobby finds himself suddenly feeling immature and out-of-touch with his best friend. The two of them engage in some teen-soap dramatics involving Connie—who’s in the throes of puberty herself—culminating in a would-be grand gesture that brings them back together.

It’s one of the best examples of King Of The Hill finding uniquely funny, character-driven moments within universal, commonplace situations. “Hank And The Great Glass Elevator” (season five, episode 11) King Of The Hill had a lot of fun torturing Bill Dauterive (the brilliant Stephen Root) over the years, but “Hank And The Great Glass Elevator” might be the steepest of his many falls from grace. First it pairs him romantically with one of King Of The Hill’s greatest stunt-casting guest stars—former Texas Governor Ann Richards, playing herself—then it brings in his verbally abusive ex-wife Lenore (Ellen Barkin) to throw his happy relationship into a tailspin. This is a great example of Bill being his own worst enemy, but it also provides a glimpse at the root of his issues by finally revealing the much-discussed, but to this point never-seen Lenore. The Peggy-Bobby subplot, where they indulge in some charcoal adultery while staunch propane advocate Hank is out of town, is a fun example of King Of The Hill in a sillier mode, and it’s a nice counterpoint to the emotional awkwardness of Bill’s romantic mess.

“Returning Japanese Part 2” (season six, episode 22) Cotton, a WWII veteran who lost his shins in Japan, is an obnoxious, petty man who spews spite in every direction, but especially toward his son. Thus, it can be a little difficult to enjoy or connect to stories involving him and Hank, who inexplicably craves his father’s approval. The second part of the two-part season-six finale doesn’t quite make Cotton likable, but it does humanize him a bit, a trend that would continue through his death in the penultimate season. The revelation that Cotton fathered Hank’s older half-brother with a Japanese war nurse is a characteristically outlandish development for the character, but it’s more interesting for the effect his new son’s rejection has on Cotton, as well as Hank. Hank’s characteristically reserved attempts to bond with his similarly uptight half-brother are charming, and Cotton’s theatrics for once feel believable, if not quite justified. Plus, there’s lots of “The Hills go to Japan!” goofiness, including Bobby’s cute flirtation with a girl over a Dance Dance Revolution-style game.

“Patch Boomhauer” (season eight, episode one) Boomhauer is another King Of The Hill character with a tendency to hit only one, or at best, two notes: His just-this-side-of-comprehensible speaking style (courtesy of Judge himself) and his womanizing make up a good 90 percent of his punchlines. “Patch Boomhauer” shows another side of Boomhauer by bringing in his brother Patch, voiced by Brad Pitt doing his best Boomhauer impression, revealing him to be engaged to Boomhauer’s great lost love. (As Dale puts it, “It’s like if the Russians landed on the moon before we did, then married it!”) The love triangle creates a rift in Boomhauer’s friendship with Hank, resulting in one of the few occasions where Hank’s forced to admit he’s wrong, which is nice to see every now and then. It’s a good example of King Of The Hill operating almost entirely outside the Hill family circle, something the series could do very successfully when it focused on the bond between Hank and his friends.

“Smoking And The Bandit” (season nine, episode 12) Episodes focusing on Dale (Johnny Hardwick) tend to be a little wackier, given the character’s propensity for paranoia and overreaction. “Smoking And The Bandit” is among King Of The Hill’s more convoluted plotlines, but like many successful Dale stories, it’s grounded in the character’s relationship with Joseph. In trying to win Joseph’s respect, Dale becomes Arlen’s “Smoking Bandit,” a mysterious figure who lights up in public places in gross defiance of the city’s smoking ban. However, the Bandit inspires a little too much admiration in the growingly rebellious Joseph, forcing Dale to team up with Hank to “apprehend” himself. As with most Dale stories, Hank plays the stern voice of reason who must clean up his friend’s mess, but Dale gets to maintain some dignity in the process, while re-establishing his most redeeming quality: his affection for the boy he assumes/convinces himself is his son.

Contents [ show ] Main Characters Henry "Hank" Rutherford Hill is a tall, strict, and serious father and husband. He frequently boasts his selling of "propane and propane accessories" and is a proud worker for Strickland Propane. Although Hank is well-meaning, he can be somewhat annoyingly compulsive about little things and aggressive to others, for example, in "Hank's Dirty Laundry" he goes to court to get out of paying $40 for a pornography film he didn't rent. The assistant manager is the usual-protagonist of the series, and in a lot of episodes, he must fix everything after his friends mess up something important of his. He resembles the character Tom Anderson from Beavis and Butt-head.

Margaret "Peggy" Platter Hill is a well-meaning but arrogant and conceited mother and wife. She is seen often to think she is very smart and she tends to be over-protective of Bobby and sometimes, Luanne. On top of this, she is a substitute Spanish teacher at Tom Landry Middle School, but will gladly jump on any opportunity to substitute, like in "Square Peg" where she becomes the sex ed teacher. She is also a winner of the Tom Landry Middle School Substitute Teacher Award three years in a row, and has been or is a restauranter, ("High Anxiety") an avid boggle fan ("Peggy the Boggle Champ"-present), a newspaper columnist ("Bystand Me"-"Glen Peggy Glen Ross") and a real estate agent ("Glen Peggy Glen Ross"-present). Robert Jeffery "Bobby" Hill is Hank and Peggy's overweight son who has an ambition to be a prop comic when he's older, much to Hank's dismay.

Bobby has awkward moments with Hank, and the two get along in an on and off fashion, sometimes Hank is proud of his son, like in "Suite Smell of Excess" where Bobby gets a liking in football, but sometimes he is bitterly shamed of him, like in "Bobby Goes Nuts" where Bobby fends off bullies by kicking them in the groin. Despite all this, he is loyal to his father and only wants to please him. Dale Alvin Gribble is a neurotic and paranoid conspiracy theorist and friend of Hank Hill. He is a skinny, smoking exterminator, who due to his health is told he could die before he is 50, in "The Exterminator". Most of the time, it is Dale in fact who causes most of Hank's trouble. Dale owns many possessions he seems to find important and loves baskets, as we find out in "Dreamweaver". Earlier on in the series, who commonly uses the alias "Rusty Shackleford", who he thought was dead, until the real Rusty shows up to settle things in "Peggy's Gone to Pots". Despite all his trouble, he sometimes is the protagonist of an episode.

William Fontaine "Bill" Delatour Dauterive is a depressed, divorced, and overweight friend of Hank Hill. He often whines over his ex-wife Lenore who abused and cheated on him. Formerly, he had a bright future in high school, being a star of the football team, and he had long, lush brown hair, and because of his ability to push tacklers out of the way to get to the touchdown line, he was nicknamed "The Billdozer". He later became an army barber but when he married Lenore, his life took a turn for the worst. He soon became depressed and cut his hair off with a weed wacker. Jeffrey Dexter "Jeff" Boomhauer III is a young-looking womanizer and Texas Ranger. He has a very obvious speech impediment where he talks fast, almost in a way that makes him completely incomprehensible. While it is hard to fully understand what he says, it is easy to hear him say "Dang ol'", "I tell you what" and "man" often when he talks.

He usually only likes woman for one-night stands but he falls in love in "Dang ol' Love" with a woman who in coincidence, only wanted a one-night stand. Luanne Leanne Platter Kleinschmidt is a stereotypical and promiscuous blonde who is portrayed as a good mechanic in earlier seasons. She becomes slightly depressed after her boyfriend Buckley dies in "Propane Boom", but gets over it when she sees his angel in "Wings of the Dope". In "Care Takin' Care of Business", she meets Lucky, who first appeared in "The Redneck on Rainy Street", and she later gets married to and has a baby with. Other Hill, Platter and Kleinschmidt relatives Ladybird Hill is the Hill's 13-year old purebred bloodhound. She is seen most of the time as sleepy and tired, although in "Pregnant Paws", she is seen in flashbacks as a very active and playful puppy. Also in "Pregnant Paws", Hank tries to breed her before she dies, but Hank learns she has a "narrow uterus" compared to Hank's narrow urethra. Col.

Cotton Lyndal Hill (deceased) was a deranged, somewhat psychotic, politically incorrect wartime hero and the father of Hank. While he seems to dislike his son, he loves his grandson, Bobby very much, and once he has his third kid, he names him "Good Hank", stating that the other Hank wasn't good. He dies in "Death Picks Cotton" after he falls onto a grill in a Japanese performance restaurant and winds up on a deathbed in a hospital. Didi Hill is Cotton's second wife, who in "Shins of the Father" is revealed went to kindergarten with Hank. She, like Luanne, is portrayed as a dim-witted blonde. As well, she is somewhat laconic and speaks in a very soft and gentle voice, as if she is shy. Elroy "Lucky" Kleinschmidt is a well-meaning husband and father, but is portrayed as an unintelligent redneck. He initially is not accepted by Peggy, who sabotages him of getting his GED in "Edu-macating Lucky", but earns her respect later on, while Hank seems to neither like or dislike him. Junichiro Hill is Hank's half-brother and the son of Cotton.

Joseph Michael "Dusty" Hill is the bassist/vocalist for the band ZZ Top and Hank's cousin. Gribble Family Nancy Hicks-Gribble is a wife and mother who commonly addresses people as "sug", which is presumably short for "sugar".

She had a 14-year affair with John Redcorn, which resulted in Joseph's birth, but decided to stop the affair in "Nancy's Boys". She is somewhat competitive. Joseph John Gribble is the illegitimate son of Dale and Nancy. He is the best friend of Bobby and is seen to hit puberty before him, and comes somewhat off as a pervert. He is the result of Nancy's affair with John Redcorn. Despite the many obvious Indian features of him, Dale does not recognize his differences, and later on believes that he was conceived when aliens took his sperm and impregnated Nancy with it. Bug Gribble is Dale's father, who had been estranged from Dale for many years for kissing Nancy at her and Dale's wedding reception. Bug is actually gay and had been flirting with a Filipino caterer instead, and, upon sensing Dale's imminent entry into the room, attempted to hide his orientation from his son by grabbing and kissing 'the nearest thing in a dress'. Boomhauer Family Patch Boomhauer is Jeff Boomhauer's sleazy, womanizing younger brother. Dr. and Mrs. Boomhauer is Jeff Boomhauer's parents. Mrs.

Boomhauer is shown to speak like Boomhauer in "Peggy's Turtle Song". In "Three Coaches and a Bobby", Boomhauer mentions that his parents had won the lottery and moved to Florida. Dauterive Family Gilbert Dauterive is Bill's cousin and one of the only Dauterives left. Though at one point shown to live on the family estate with his aunt and cousin in a Louisiana bayou in "A Beer Can Named Desire", he and Bill eventually wind up as the last two living Dauterives. It is strongly implied that he is gay, and he even hits on Buck Strickland when Buck attempts to capitalize on the Dauterive family's traditional barbecue sauce recipe in "Blood and Sauce". Esmé Dauterive was Bill and Gilbert's aunt, and matriarch of the Dauterive clan. She expressed deep concern over the family's ever-shrinking headcount, lamenting that "the Dauterive blood is down to a trickle". She happily received Bill upon his return for a visit and was not displeased to see him and his cousins' widows taking mutual interest.

She is only seen in "A Beer Can Named Desire"; it is later revealed that she had died after a fever. Violetta Dauterive (deceased) was Bill and Gilbert's cousin. She lived on the family estate in Louisiana with Esmé, Gilbert, and Rose and Lily, the widows of two other Dauterive cousins.

The series marked Mike Judge’s second big success in animation, following Beavis and Butt-Head. While Beavis and Butt-head took sophomoric humor to the extreme, KOH aimed more at poking fun of the straight-laced, Middle-American dream.

Don’t get me wrong, I think Fox’s current animation block is solid enough, but while The Simpsons has veered more into the more obvious joke format of Family Guy, KOH took a more subtle approach. The characters are based in people you might actually encounter in real life. Hang out in an Army surplus store long enough and you’re bound to cross paths with a Dale Gribble. 1. KOH creators Mike Judge and Greg Daniels used an animated pencil sketch with Hank as part of their pitch to the network executives at FOX. EMAIL 2. Boomhauer’s voice is based on an irate gibberish message that was left on Mike Judge’s answering machine by a caller angry about Beavis and Butt-Head. 3. The inspiration for Hank Hill came from the character Tom Anderson on Beavis and Butt-head. Including Hank’s catchphrase, “That boy ain’t right.” In the episode Beavis is “working” at Burger World and Tom comments, “That boy ain’t right in the head.” 4. Actor Stephen Root — who provides the voice of Bill Dautrieve — also worked with Mike Judge on Office Space. His character was based on a short animation that Mike had done for Saturday Night Live. 5.

Bobby’s school, Tom Landry Middle School, named after Dallas Cowboys football coach Tom Landry actually does exist and is located in Irving Texas, although it’s an elementary school. 6. Although Stephen Root appeared on the series from the show’s inception, he was unaccredited for the first few seasons. The reason being because he was still on News Radio and his contract with NBC prevented him from being credited on another network’s show. It wasn’t until News Radio got the axe that Root finally got the recognition he deserved for Sgt. William Fontaine “Bill” de la Tour D’Haute Rive. 7. Hank’s dog Ladybird is named after first lady, Claudia “Lady Bird” Johnson. There also happens to be a reservoir named Lady Bird Lake where Mike Judge currently lives in Austin, Texas. 8. In addition to staffed talent like The Daily Show’s Wyatt Cenac and Louie regular Pamela Aldon, the series has had almost as many guest cameos as The Simpsons, with everyone from Snoop Dogg to Johnny Depp and Chris Rock lending their talents.

My favorite guest cameo has to be Tom Petty, who came in to initially do a one-time part but became a regular because of the character’s popularity after “slipping in pee-pee.” 9. The Simpsons and King of the Hill universes crossed paths on several occasions, one where Bobby has a Bart Simpson doll on his bookshelf. The other features Hank, Bobby, Peggy, Luanne, Bill, Dale, and Boomhauer drawn into an episode of The Simpsons. Homer references Springfield’s football team playing Arlen and the shot then cuts to the Hill clan with Hank commenting “We came two thousand miles for this?” Another Simpsons/Hill blend features Homer popping a Duff, jump starting the KOH intro. 10. In the 1999 episode “Death and Taxes” death row inmate Wesley Martin Archer is named after the episode’s director Wesley Archer. Archer would later go on to work with KOH vets Mike Judge on The Goode Family and writer Jim Dauterive on Bob’s Burgers. This episode also features a prison guard named Alex de Large, who was the central character in A Clockwork Orange.

Share This By: Rhgy 11.08.2013 @ 11:46 AM Can someone explain the reason they use bells in some of the intros and not others? Did it mark the end of a season or was it just arbitrary? By: John G aka Shatner 11.08.2013 @ 11:50 AM By: Rhgy 11.08.2013 @ 11:52 AM But they used it in the episode Ho Yeah! Which was in the middle of a season. And they did it some other times. By: irishda 11.08.2013 @ 3:27 PM I never laughed so hard at a line like I did when Peggy retorts, “As you can see, Bobby, I have no testicles to kick.” Then Khan screamed, “She bluffing…Finish her!” By: BingoDan 11.08.2013 @ 3:52 PM Khan is easily one of the best characters on that show.

They do nothing, they learn squat, they know diddly, they hate the teachers - and, amazingly, they manage to avoid being thrown out. (2) Trying to score with chicks - something we know they'll never achieve. (3) Watching TV. Lots of TV.

If something in the real world doesn't relate to what they know from TV, it sucks. They especially enjoy "reviewing" music videos - or just commenting inanely on them. If a video contains heavy rock, scantily-clad babes or anti-authority figures, it's cool - otherwise, it sucks.

See more » Connections Referenced in Gigli (2003) See more » Frequently Asked Questions Funny and much smarter than meets the eye 23 December 2004 | by Rileeff (United States) – See all my reviews I liked Beavis and Butthead when I watched it in 1993-1994. The show was much smarter than was advertised. For one thing, it realized that sex and sexuality is at the base for many more human actions than is generally realized and accepted. The format and execution may have been childish but the concepts and ideas were fairly advanced. In that way, Beavis and Butthead was a much more psychological show than a lot of the other garbage that has floated around in TV history. The fire comments, the animal abuse, etc, is the part of the show that is unfortunate. Without such things, however, there would be no Beavis and Butthead. Still, the show does not attempt to hide that these activities are sick and is a much more honest show in that respect than many others.

Beavis and Butthead was a necessary show for tackling topics, no matter how stupid, that are rarely touched upon in society. In that way, it provided (GASP!) a service. The characters around Beavis and Butthead were funnier than Beavis and Butthead themselves, such as Anderson and Buzzcut. For anyone who has ever done or wanted to do anything retarded (haven't we all been there?), Beavis and Butthead is for you. Personally, I've been Beavis and Butthead level stupid at times, myself, and I really enjoyed the show. 39 of 49 people found this review helpful. Was this review helpful to you? Yes
