Exactly, Chairboy- I did that on purpose as a subtle bit of humor, and to see if anyone would notice it. ;)

ROFLMAO at Nuke for laughing, tho- it proves you KOTH fans are dimwitted Neocons. :D

King of the Hill is awesome. My favorite character has to be Bill, the Army Barber. He's wrong on so many levels it's funnier than chit.

Family Guy is my favorite cartoon though. Peter makes Homer look competent.

Hmm never developed a liking for KOTH... for me, it's Arrested Development that does it. Innovative, rich characters, and, go figure! no canned laughs.

I admit I didn't think the show was that funny until after I moved to Texas (Dallas).  I've run across a few Hanks, Dales, and yes even a couple of Boomhauers from Ft. Worth.  I do like it now, but it did have to grow on me a bit first.


HANK: So, are you Chinese or Japanese?
KAHN: I live in California last twenty years, but first come from Laos.
HANK: Huh?
KAHN: Laos. We Laotian.
BILL: The ocean? What ocean?
KAHN: We are Laotian. From Laos, stupid! It's a landlocked country in Southeast Asia. It's between Vietnam and Thailand, okay? Population 4.7 million.
HANK: So, are you Chinese or Japanese?


:rofl

I tell you what makes King of the Hill so funny, it's basis in the truth. The characters are painfully accurate models of real Texans. Being a native Texan I can put real peoples faces on each and every one of them. If I did'nt know better I'd swear Mike Judge went to school with me.
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.

RPM is quite right.  KOTH does a good job of representing actual life in a small Texas town, albeit with slight exaggerations (only slight though).

It's a great show, and as pointed out because of the depth of character development and the ability to capture a lifestyle. A departure from Beavis and Butthead for sure, but I also found it great at a deeper level (many didn't) because it captured those characters so well. If you grew up in the 1980s you knew those guys.
