KIng of the Hill...the end is near

Pretty amazing that a cartoon about a propane (and propane accessories) salesman in Arlen, Texas lasted 13 years.

Bobby, if you weren't my son, I'd hug you.
 
i've never liked this show and didn't understand how it seemed to maintain popularity and a nice time slot.
anyone with me, or did i just whiff on this one?
 
[Hank HIll referring to ADMINRASTOCKDALE] That boy ain't right. [/Hank Hill referring to ADMIRALSTOCKDALE]
 
I think these last two episodes are due to fan support. They tried to quietly let it go away this spring, but they didn't have a finale episode, and it left a complete lack of closure.

Admiral: Big whiff. Like Stevie Wonder trying to hit a Nolan Ryan fast ball whiff. This is one of the greatest shows of all time.
 
Hooker: "Hank...Alabaster's a little guy...but he'll mess you up"

Hank: "No offense, but...he's from Oklahoma"
 
long island, actually.

i just don't really like the characters all that much.
wouldn't be the first time i wasn't in step on a popular tv show though.
 
Reverend Stroup: Mr. and Mrs. Hill, are you willing to be Luanne's virginity sponsors?Hank: Sponsors? You mean like what the drunks have?
Reverend Stroup: Mr. Hill, a celibacy sponsor is like an offensive linesman for the virgin quarterback. The other team is going to be coming on strong. So Luanne needs you to get in there and block, or she might very well get sacked.
Hank: Well, that's not in the Bible, but it should be.
 
Truet...that was a great quote pull from a great show!

Bobby: Can I get a gun rack for my bike?
Hank: Do you know how long I've been waitin' for you to ask me that.


King of the Hill is genius, sheer genius.
 
Hank: Well I'd lock him up for what we know he did, and then throw in a few extra years for what he probably did.

My favorite line ever.
 
I loved this show when it first came out, but lately that Sunday time slot with the Simpsons and the god awful American Dad buzzkill it for me.

Although when its on randomly on FOX, Ill watch it. One of the greatest shows of all time, tons of Longhorn and Cowboys references.. just all in all a Texans show. Ive had this same conversation with people I know that live up north and they all hate it or dont think its funny.

I usually just call them Yanks and punch them in the face.

cowboys camp episode....

<hank> how about them cowboys? </hank>

<white trash retail worker> arlen sucks and wichita falls rules, and you wanna know why? cuz i'm five minutes from the oklahoma border.... GO SOONERS! </white trash retail worker>
 
My favorite Hank line, "Peggy, I'm trying to stop an outbreak here, and you're driving the monkey to the airport..."

I think the reason Yankees don't like the show is because it's about a Texas family, yet it doesn't fall back on the "Texans are all stupid redneck hicks" stereotype for laughs.
 
I will occasionally address the Mrs. as "Hank's wife", when I'm guessing that I can get away with it. Been wrong a couple of times lately..............
