"The Boy Can't Help It" sounds like it will work as a finale: "Bobby becomes quite the ladies' man when several girls in his class consider him a potential date for the Homecoming dance. When he realizes the girls are just playing with his emotions and are not really that interested, he asks his pal Connie to the dance." It's one of the few threads they haven't tied up in the past few seasons.

I thought DVDs were supposed to be liquid gold no matter how crappy or unpopular a show is. Why would they stop making them?

Oh well, the show is 14 years old. What's the average life span for a show?

Probably around 5 or 6 seasons? King of the Hill got more than a fair shake, it's just a shame they had to end it because it's as good as ever.

One of my favorite moments is in the one where Peggy finds out about John Redcorn and Nancy. Peggy sees John Redcorn coming out of the house and says "Jooooooooooooooooooohn Redcorn" in this really accusing voice and he just looks back at her and says "Peeeeeeeeeeggggggy Hill" in the exact same way. Loses everything when I type it, but the way he says it is hilarious.

My favorite thing about John Redcorn is that NOBODY (even John Redcorn himself) ever just calls him John.

"Have you checked out John Redcorn's New Age Healing Center? You really should. On Friday nights, John Redcorn and his band, Big Mountain Fudge Cake, will be playing. I'm John Redcorn."

I stole that from you

This is one of my favorites too, and it's a great little bit that sums up the entire show perfectly.

I love Peggy. My favorite quote of hers is when Hank is telling her how appalled he is that Dale was joking about them being swingers, and she says "You get Nancy and I get Dale? Uh-uh. I think we know who the winner is there: Dale".

What a nice ending. They've wrapped up a lot of the other loose ends over the past 2 seasons so it was good to go out focusing on Hank and Bobby.

That ending was perfect. The only way it could have been better was if Hank told Bobby, "You're gonna turn out all right" (shamelessly stolen from a poster early in this thread).

He pretty much did. And they did exchange "yep"s.

Great episode. I loved this show and I'm so sad that it's cancelled.

Well, it was on 13 seasons and it got an actual kind of promoted sendoff with a great conclusion. Considering what network this show was on, I consider all of those things a small miracle.

I'm pissed we're not gonna get to see this one:

256 "The Honeymooners" TBA DABE13
Hank is shocked when his mother announces she is marrying a man she has only known for a few weeks. Soon after, the newlyweds celebrate by purchasing an RV and heading to Hank's. When Hank's mom and new stepfather have a heated argument, she takes off with the RV and Hank is left to rescue his mother once again. also Dale finds out about the long affair his wife Nancy has had with John Redcorn and that Joseph is not really his son

You know, the Wikipedia description of that episode does not have that last part, it sounds tacked on and made up. I think it's fine that Dale never found out, although it might have been interesting if they had him admit he knew all along.

That, and a callback to "Thanks for the latte, Kenneth" are the only two jokes I remember. I wish I'd have kept my first draft. Not only did I not send it to the guy, I was so ashamed of it one night I got drunk and deleted it.

Really you probably just have to start with Hank being shocked about something and work backwards from there.

It doesn't bother your that your dad is gay, Dale?
What? No! I've been friends with John Redcorn for years...

I think that's how it goes. Also in the Thatherton episode, Boomhauer and John Redcorn are hanging out.

I love the one where Bill is pretending to be gay and he's out at the club and the women he's with tell him someone's eyeing him up and it turns out to be John Redcorn giving him an incredibly confused stare.

Hah, I love the early Halloween episode. Hank remembering what a bad kid he was then being sad and going to call him mom.

Sad thing is when I later leaned that the "SATANIST!!!!!!!" thing was actually based on reality.

Hank used to be kind of a dick, especially when he tells Bobby he knows how it feels to be bullied and the flashback is Hank yelling "Hey fatty! You are fat!" at some fat kid.

Im surprised they never brought back that character (even if she was a 1 note character).

Also, that episode has a really weird tone to it, like it doesn't quite have the humor/feel of a typical KOTH (even when considering its an early episode)

Here's some weird news, Adult Swim just did their numbers for viewership for last Saturday and both episodes of King of the Hill were the top rated shows for the night.

Awesome, suck it Family Guy reruns. I'm glad King of the Hill is finally getting some credit somewhere. I think Adult Swim is what will vindicate the show to history.

There was an episode about it snowing in Arlen. There was maybe a half an inch and everyone drove like idiots and wore heavy winter coats.

Also, the show wasn't very political. The only thing they did about George W. Bush was that he had a weak hand shake and that Hank wasn't sure that he would vote for him.

The best was when Hank went to the strip mall with Dale instead of voting and they showed him trying on a beret.
