This is how I want to remember King of the Hill.
King of the Hill
The reboot is going to suck
I want to believe in Mike Judge. He seems pretty based and I've always found his works funny. I just hate the idea of bringing this show back when it ended perfectly.
bump
ended perfectly
I have a hard time believing we watched the same ending
Did Dale’s VA die before or after he finished recording for the reboot?
Mike Judge is still funny. It could be good
You talking about the out-of-order Fox ending? Or the actual intended ending (To sirloin With Love)?
You could always, you know, look it up. Most of the time you don’t even have to type in a captcha to do so and it makes less useless clutter
Leak shows Hank gets cheated on and has to accept it
Wtf?
Anon just wanted to make some conversation
All parents care about is zero-tolerance drug policy and literacy
Why can't Billy read? Why can't Billy read?
not to fond of what they did to bill when he had some sort of closure but at least the closure finally made bobby had a talent for something that complements hank's passion for propane
Enjoy your rebooted marxist slop.
I'm going to be being racist online. EXTREMELY racist.
Always have to laugh when Anon Babblefags call everything marxist.
destiny
Ended perfectly
It left you with hope for the future. Now things are muddied and concrete that people are sure to hate.
that guy keeps talking about kid's "tools"
last two seasons were kinda bland and those 4 episodes that only aired on adult swim werent that good. it should have ended with cotton dying
The king of the hill was John Redcorn
I like that they gave Bobby an unambiguous win that Hank can be proud of
my brother and I still sometimes shout HARD BONE in Bobby's voice if we're eating steak or watching a video about high quality beef
see
any hope for the future isn't for a syndicated monster-of-the-week show. bobby and hank bonded over several things that never get brought up again, bill never got to see Kahns mom again
It's a good thing that Mike isn't the show runner then
Marxist slop
hank goes to sudai Arabia
What the fuck? The logical thing would be to have him owning Strickland.
I think it's kind of clever. He was in one of those expat communities and it's a way for him to have been relatively insulated from what's been going on in Arlen and the country at large since he left.
Let's see how it works out.
It's actually the only thing about the remake that's given me any hope. Makes me thing there's some actual thought and creativity going into it. I didn't even know those communities existed.
I didn't either
literally same contrived bullshit like they did with Beavis and Butthead
Bravo Judge
I bet you the first fucking season is going to be just hank running around like "whoa this is new. I can't understand it but I'll accept it, tell you hwat". Like he'd have no idea what's going on, smart phones exist.
How is hank in any way based? He was played for laughs and was blatantly anti white
Based
He's the most respected man on his block and the defacto block captain. While he's probably on the spectrum, he's also shown to time and again be the voice of reason and gets proven right in most episodes. So much so that people started complaining about the later seasons being "Hank's always right"
blatantly anti white
It makes sense. Part of the humor was that Hank was far more competent and dedicated than Buck and much more suited to running the company, yet he was ultimately a loyal company man who would just fly out to Saudi Arabia if the boss ordered him to (assuming that's what happened).
tfw no beach or pool party episode with Donna in a thong
Why did they deprive us?
Soul vs Soulless
Hank taking out the trash did look pretty stiff towards the end there.
Principal Moss was a great Neutral antagonist. A shame they turned him into a worse version of Bill in the later seasons.
I'm going to be being
You're going to continue being brown.
That doesn't excuse his acceptance of non whites.
It's a contrived way to have Hank and Peggy get updated about what's going on by the other characters for the audience's sake.
gets rid of the recycle bin
That feels inaccurate.
That's called being a decent human being.
Presumably they'll also use it as a way to get the usual Hank takes on issues which he wouldn't really have a strong reaction to if he'd been there as they were happening. Like he returns home and finds that the state is overrun with Californians, that the DFW metroplex is overstuffed with crappy overpriced high density housing, stuff like that
To torture us.
It's weird to remember that the final season of King of the Hill had a MySpace episode that felt rather dated at the time of airing. Like it's pretty weird to remember that KOTH ran long enough to coince with the end of MySpace's relevance right before the rise of modern social media, and now with the new episodes we have to pretend that the events of the original series took place in the mid 2010s. It's surreal to think in the very early episodes Dale mentions Usenet newsgroups and now Bobby's friends would've had Instagram in high school.
Now, Hank, ol’ top, listen up—this here’s the mother of all deals! I got us hooked up with some big->shot Saudi prince, and he’s got a hankerin’ for the finest propane this side of the Rio Grande. We’re >talkin’ Strickland Propane goin’ global, son! I need my best man—you, Hank Hill—to head over to that >Aramco base and show ‘em how Texas does propane right. It’s a slam dunk: you’ll be livin’ in a fancy >American-style compound, white picket fences and all, nothin’ but the best. Plus, the money? Hoo >boy, it’s enough to set you and Peggy up for life—retirement nest egg, the works! I’d go myself, but >you know I ain’t cut out for them dry countries, heh heh. This is your shot to make Strickland proud, >Hank. Whaddaya say? One month, tops, and you’re back home a hero!
Fucked up formatting but it's readable
Luanne now has that body type
The series had shaky continuity, but I do hope they don't go full The Simpsons with it and make it such that Hank and Peggy were in high school in the 90s or something. My ideal would be that the original series started when it started, the final year shown was in 2001/2, and this picks up roughly a decade later, but all the real world shit that's happened that they want to address just happened earlier in KOTH, like COVID happened in 2007.
...Buck sold Hank into slavery as a Dubai porta potty didn't he?
