Thank god fox can cart all the extras off and essentially bury them, have to get all the timeslots for two and a half men reruns that can be jammed up in that bitch!

I think the beauty of the show is that it's perceived by people as high brow when the reality is that everybody can enjoy this show without needing to watch TV to get countless pop culture references/flashbacks or being incredibly high. Its not trying to be subversive or witty or "hey look we made this in Flash on a $200 budget", it just is.

I'm just praying the rest gets to DVD. I really want to have this show with me forever so I can look back 25 years from now, still laugh my rear end off at something Dale does(oh god that pocket sand mention has me rolling) and say smugly that it was way too good and too far ahead of its time.

This makes me very depressed. It seems that Fox is willing to give money for anything that Seth MacFarlane wants to do.

Why can't we have well written shows with developed characters and actual plot lines like KOTH? Why?

Really, I'm not too sad to see it go. Thirteen years is a long-rear end run. I think I've only seen one or two episodes from the past 4-5 years. I only remember seeing one episode that features Lucky, where Bobby wants to bust into the chip factory with him. I loved the reference to "Running Down a Dream."

As sad as I am to see King of the Hill go, it had an incredible run and lackluster ratings. I'm just amazed Fox kept it as long s they did. Of course, if they'd loving advertised it- Ah, it's not worth frothing at the mouth over.

I think my favourite King of the Hill quote is from the episode where Hank befriends Hal and the other guys get jealous. Bill and Dale have this exchange while spying on Hank and Hal:

DALE (into a tape recorder): "10:15, Hank picks up Hal."
BILL: "What?"
(Dale rewinds the tape and plays it back.)
DALE (on the tape): "10:15, Hank picks up Hal."
BILL (on the tape): "What?"
DALE (shouting angrily): "I said, "10:15, Hank picks up Hal!"

Another great one is when Bobby kicks Hank in the testicles and Hank tells him he's going to punish him:

BOBBY: "That's not fair, you can't do that."
HANK: "I'll tell you what I can't do... sleep on my stomach."

Something about his delivery of that line cracks me up every time.

"As for me, people will be pleased to escape from me in one piece."



I like the episode where Bobby and Hank watch TV in the master bedroom late at night. Hank's all excited because today they will be able to pick up the San Antonio news broadcast. The weather girl does something dumb, and Hank laughs and says in his incredulous manner, "San Antonio!" His delivery of that line just cracks me up.

In 1985 Dr. Strange makes a rap album.


"Hi, my name is Ladybird. I like long walks, my arthritis medication, and two cups of kibble a day. I'll try to outsmart you and get three cups, but I know you're too clever for that, Ms. Platter."
"I don't know, Uncle Hank. She did write this letter."

I always liked the Japanese episode and that exchange might be my absolute favorite one in the series. Luanne is such a great character.

And I'm glad that they're going to be doing something with Bobby and Connie again to (essentially) end the series. I was always a bit annoyed at how she basically seemed to drop into the background once her and Bobby broke up. She's great in the cheerleading episode, though.

The rabies episode where Hank very carefully describes to the guy how to properly call to Ladybird.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Hill, we'll have to put Ladybird down. I mean, we'll have to put Laaaaadyyyyyybiiiiiird down."

I love when Hank is chasing Mr. Strickland, who runs through a door marked "Emergency use only". Hank just stands in front of the door and futilely watches Strickland escape into the distance.

I like that episode because it's one of the few times Bill wins... specifically, ends up better than Hank. Hank is the Bill in that episode.

I didn't pad any time on the dvr and there is football on the screen here at work. I guess they can't risk cutting a family guy rerun so they will already in progress KOTH?
