OMG when Mins father 'the General' comes to visit. He's all about making Kahn feel worthless and demands that he put mp3 on his wrist watch. When Kahn tries to explain it's not possible the general just screams at Kahn:
"DRAG AND DROP, DRAG AND DROP!"

My favourite moment ever: Kahn using Buckley's funeral as an opportunity to relate the parable about the monk, the tigers and the strawberry; and Hank's appalled "Can you believe this guy? Tells a joke at a funeral!"

The Sanglok Lama episode is unbelievable. Perhaps my favorite in the whole series.

This past season's been pretty shitty.
also: "is an animated television program on the Fox network (snigger)."

True enough, and also true of the several preceding it. I thought last night they were on classic form, though.

hmm the only memorable episodes I can recall from the previous seasons is one about Dale meeting the master exterminator (a woman) for the pigeon assault on Arlen. And she wanted to hook up with Dale.
I'm sure there had to be at least a couple others.

i was deeply dismayed when i made an offhand boomhauer comment at a poker game the other week and nobody at the table knew who "boomhauer" was. i've never been religious about this show, but i've still seen probably 100 episodes at various points over the years and i think of it as having a significant place in the pop-culture firmament. but that's obviously a variable thing. i wonder who its actual core demographic is.

or who it was i guess, since the show's over. (except for a few more episodes to maybe air in the fall?)

I think Goode Family is showing potential, but there are a lot of traps in the approach, and it's falling into some of 'em. Maybe a lot.

I watched couple, definitely showing potential, however I kind of expect it to die a death seeing as ABC have consigned it to friday nights over the summer and they seem not to be promoting it at all, (ABC's awful awful streaming player doesn't help either)

nyc. i have no idea why my friends don't know king of the hill, except that maybe they think of it as some kinda red-state thing.
― would you ask tom petty that? (tipsy mothra), Wednesday, 17 June 2009 01:07 (fifteen years ago) link
I'm pretty sure people in Quebec City would know King of the Hill (they even have it dubbed in french in Quebecand hank is changed to Henri)
So is it over or what?

On the dvd of the first season, there were a few eps that had "character commentaries". That ep had Peggy and Bobby;when that joke came up, they were all like, "Why does he try to be funny?"

So, okay, I passively watched the first season of this when it first aired (in much the same way that I passively watched Ned and Stacy, which preceded KOTH in the mid-Simpsons/X-Files timeslot) and thought it was okay but, well, it was during a time of upheaval in my life just before my contemporaneous tv viewing largely came to a halt, so I never got any further. But I started rewatching from the beginning and...hey, it's actually a whole lot better than I remember. Probably too subtle and sly for me to have fully appreciated 20+ years ago. This is quality COVID-era viewing: at least one solid belly laugh per episode plus legit and unsaccharine feelings. Just what I need to break the monotony of staring at a wall as I quietly weep.
