    Storyline

    Edit
    Hank Hill, a propane gas salesman in the fictional town of Arlen, Texas, is often besieged by the idiosyncrasies of society, but finds some serenity in his home life with his wife, substitute Spanish teacher Peggy, his awkward son Bobby, and his live-in niece-in-law Luanne Platter. Adding flavor were Hank's friends, divorcé military barber Bill Dauterive, paranoid Dale Gribble (with an obsession with government conspiracy theories), and gibberish-spouting Boomhauer. —Ondre Lombard <olombard@lombard.cyberverse.com>

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The voice of Boomhauer was based on a message left on Mike Judge's telephone answering machine by an irate viewer of Beavis and Butt-Head (1993). The viewer mistook the show's name as "Porky's Butthole".
    • Goofs
      In the early episodes, Luanne clearly has automotive skills - she is seen repairing cars and even ordering Hank parts he needs to fix his truck at one point. From "Jumpin' Crack Bass" on she has little to no knowledge of cars.
    • Quotes

      [repeated line, referring to Bobby]

      Hank: That boy ain't right.

    • Crazy credits
      The beginning of the opening title sequence may play a slightly different opening sound depending upon the nature of the episode. For example, an episode where the Hills go to Mexico plays a distinctly Mexican guitar riff at the beginning, whereas the 100th episode had a bell ringing and a hooting sound on top of the other "normal" instrumentation.
    • Alternate versions
      When Part II of the episode in which Peggy jumps out of a plane and ends up in a body cast aired in syndication, the following was removed: The scene where Bobby cuts G.H.'s umbilical cord, and the scene where Peggy offers to teach Bobby how to change a diaper.

    One of the best shows on TV.
    King of the Hill is probably one of the best shows that you're not watching. A very droll sense of humor abounds in this show about a propane salesman and his family. Along with extolling the virtues of propane and propane accessories, Hank reveres everything and anything Texan: steak, the Cowboys, Tom Landrey. Hank navigates life with the help of his Boggle playing wife Peggy, who is a substitute Spanish teacher. And then there's Bobby Hill, Hank's only son because of a narrow ureathra. The supporting players add color to this mix. You have paranoid, whacko Dale, lonesome Bill and Boomhauer. Then there's Hank's niece LuAnn, his neighbor Khan, and his father, Cotton. Throw them all together and you have a show that is worth watching. One could argue that this show could be done as live action, I think it benefits from being animated. Dream sequences are easier to pull off, and some of the more oddball things that Dale and Cotton Hill do could only be done on an animated show. Smartly written and full of humor.

    FAQ16

    • Why didn't the Souphanousinphones move to Nine Rivers Country Club? At the end of S12E08 (The Minh Who knew Too Much), the Souphanousinphones appear to have been accepted into the Nine Rivers Country Club. But in subsequent episodes in the series (eg S12E13 & S12E16), they are still living next door to the Hills on Rainey Street. What happened?
