Bill's cousin Gilbert is by far the best minor character in the show. Everything that guy says is amazing.

CaptainHollywood posted:It's not so much that it became "bad" but a few of the later season episodes became VERY weird. It didn't get weird either. It was more the opposite. It got really, really bland, topical, and phoned in and it would be a better episode if it gave you a chuckle or two where the show used to be capable of being genuinely hilarious. You ever see that myspace episode? awful.

Whatev posted:No, it became horrible. That episode there was only like halfway through the series total run and stood way out anyway. I haven't seen those episodes but the way you describe it reminds me of the "First Person Shooter" episode of the X Files easily the worst episode of the entire series, like god drat how do you manage to produce such complete poo poo with such a great film crew and actors

And the soundtrack. The soundtrack was pretty great. extract was so forgettable that i got to the end of the page before a nagging feeling brought me back to this post and i was like "oh poo poo, wait yeah i did see that"

Just another manic khan-day is up there too. it's end season, but its good. The last season really brought back the quality, like the finale. To Sirloin With Love is a great send-off for the series, it has hank and bobby actually bonding over something, the cookout at the end - its just a good series finale.

the latter half wasn't as good as the first, but it's not like it pulled a simpsons-level of quality nosedive, i still like the randy savage episode, and Peggy Horror Show the one latter episode that REALLY bothered me was the one where hank hill takes over a co-op, it introduces like 5 problems when a normal episode would have focused on any one of them, then just glides by all of them to have the guest star save Neurolimal fucked around with this message at 20:31 on Aug 20, 2014 |

I take offense to the thread title and the OP. Bill is a saint. drat king oh the hill was a great show. Peggy was an insufferable character. One of the most unlikable in all of fiction. Shoot her into the sun please.

I'm pretty sure Bobby was Bill's kid. So that's another thing to hate Peggy about. I liked how Dale never learned the truth about Joseph.

Best late era King of the Hill episode is Untitled Blake McCormick Project/3 Men and a Bastard, where Bill starts dating a girl who had a kid with John Redcorn and Dale finds out about it, thinking it's one of the "alien master race" babies like Joseph. Gets even weirder when Joseph starts liking the girl for some cool incest fun. My description probably doesn't do it justice for how jaw dropping ridiculous that episode is.

Hank forced his finger under the tab of a cold Alamo Beer can, but the metal bit beneath his fingernail and briefly bent the nail backwards. He sighed. As usual, the metal was flimsy, but the flesh was flimsier. Where there once were four, there are now only three, he thought to himself, noting that Dale was absent, as he had been missing for three days. "Probably up to something harebrained, I'll tell you what," Hank had reassured the other men. "He'll be back." But deep down inside, he wondered what had become of his closest friend. Texas remained impenetrably silent on the matter. It paid no mind to the affairs of mere men. It did not weep for their follies. As Bill nursed a can of Alamo, he whimpered under his breath. It was a pathetic noise, a sound that came from a man who had been broken by years of brainwashing and abuse. Hank imagined it coming from a POW as he saw the interrogator returning to his cell for the thousandth time. It made him strangely angry. He wanted to crush Bill under his boot, to put him out of his misery. Dang it. Hank tried to ignore the noise and refocus on his drink. Condensation sweated on the pale skin of the can...but suddenly it was Dale's pale skin and sweat that Hank saw. "I'm on to something big, Haaaaaank," Dale had said in his whiny, nasally voice. "The Bootstrap Paradox, Einstein, Wormhole-deniers...they're all smoke and mirrors to hide the truth that's in plain sight." For months, Dale had grown increasingly obsessed with the concept of a time machine. And then, recently, he had come to Hank--his noxious body odor clinging to him like a ghost, his skin pale and sagging from his malnourished skeleton, his knuckles burnt from cigarettes chain-smoked to the filter--and seized Hank by his Strickland Propane polo. Despite going perhaps days without food or sleep, his grasp was frighteningly firm. "Hank...Hank. Hank--do you have any uranium?" The question came out strange, almost like a purr. When Dale looked at Hank, he saw that one of Dale's eyes was pointed in a completely wrong direction; It yawed off to one side at a startling angle. "Ungh, what happened to your eye, Dale?" "Uranium, Hank: Do you have any of it?" His fingers were like cold claws digging into Hank's shoulders. Suddenly something hard poked Hank in the stomach--a pistol. "I...I don't want to kill you, Hank, but I'm not going to let a little supply and demand get in the way of my time machine. So I'm going to make a demand, and you're going to supply me with some goddamned uranium." Dale licked his lips rapidly. "Dale," Hank's eyes were full of sadness, "I don't have any uranium." Suddenly, Dale let Hank go and sprinted for Hank's front yard. He crouched down on the lawn and snatched something out of the grass, clutching it tightly in his bony hands. When Hank looked closer, he realized that it was one of Ladybird's turds. "I'll kill you later, Hank," Dale hissed, and threw himself over the fence that divided their properties. For the first time in his entire life, Hank couldn't bring himself to finish his beer. He reflected on those final moments with Dale. "Will he ever come back?" Bill had asked, a child in man's flesh. "He will...he always does," Hank had replied. But part of Hank hoped he wouldn't. Cream-of-Plenty fucked around with this message at 05:22 on Aug 21, 2014 |

I watched the episode where Hank Hill is tricked into mooning Gov. Ann Richards while in an elevator and I can't ever recall seeing a bigger "GAAAAAAHHHHHHHH" out of Hank it was tremendous, but unfortunately the rest of the episode is made even more awkward by Bill getting together with the former Gov. Ann Richards but completely trainwrecking it because of LEEEENNNNNOOOORRREEE
