One of the creepiest king of the hill episodes

[evoapollo · 8/10 · 1 April 2022]

Controlling, semi-abusive relationships, drugging, mental illness and basically shock therapy and being chopped into hot dogs? Very unusual for a king of the hill episode I tell ya h'wat. I felt so uncomfortable by the end when he was dressed as a pig and chased her out. Then he gets shocked and he said the voices stopped. Sounds like Schizophrenia. Very dark topic for king of the hill. I never realized when he yelled at luanne to drink all the milk he roofed her so he could dye her hair red which was why he said she was asleep for 14 hours. 14 hours! That's very unusual of a long time to sleep. She was drugged. All I remember from this episode growing up was the beginning when Peggy yelled at luannes boss and the boss goes something like I wasn't going to fire her. But it was too late Peggy made luanne quit already.but this episode paints a very obvious picture about mentally illness. It's so hard to detect it can be affecting many lives we may not even know it. Mental health matters.

Probably The Strangest Episode of King of the Hill

Every time I see this episode I wonder what was going on in the writers room.

Was it a Halloween episode? No. It came out in January. I almost wonder if they just wanted to just get Michael Keaton recorded saying some weird lines. It's difficult to describe how strange it is, not only because it veers off the "realism" that King of the Hill tries to go for but also because it basically turns into a horror franchise.

The episode literally ends with Peggy and Luanne committing manslaughter, having a little "I learned something today" moment then heading back home to the twanging end credit guitar.
