    Hey folks, just a quick peak behind the curtain here, it took four days and over 20 cycles of upload video, get copyright blocked, edit video and so on to get this thing finally loaded. The video was originally over 25 minutes long and included every word of dialogue Leanne had, but a lot of it had to be cut. So, if you're wondering why some of your favorite parts are missing, well, that's why.

      @@SuperWolseyI believe the Oil Rig Hoyt & Just got out prison Hoyt are 2 different characters. It feels that in the early seasons Hoyt actually was hiding on a Oil Rig & was in regular communication with the Hills especially Hank & Luanne. Where as in the late series episode where Hoyt makes his introduction, Hank never met the man, Hoyt hasn’t seen his daughter since she was little & doesn’t say anything about his ex wife or the trailer home. My theory is the original Hoyt still existed for awhile after Peggy’s family got reconned (you know, the new mama platter) up until his introduction episode.
      The line “He’s not coming to shore until I fax him her death certificate” & if “oil rig” really did mean prison, that is not how the prison system works. You can’t just leave because you know your ex wife is dead or use the place to hide from her until then.

    I'm pretty sure Leanne was lying about her age. She was always trying to come off younger than she was. It was also implied that Hoyt was not her first marriage in The Company Man when Hank said Peggy wore a dress to "one of Luanne's mama's weddings". I hope a 15 or 16 year old hasn't been married.

      she clearly looks 40. . but then again, so does Hank, and according to the the show, Hank is 34 as well. so it may be more a commentary on teenage pregnancy and how she is trailer trash. to add even more tragedy to the daughter Luanne's backstory.
      edit : aaand now i looked on the wiki and says hank ks 41. . .i dunno. i could swore i saw somewhere said that Hank was 34.

At least early on she seemed like she had a LOT of untapped potential as a highly skilled mechanic.

Leanne could have had it changed, but there was a $50 fee to legally change the birth certificate and Leanne figured Luanne was technically a name so why waste the money?

Leanne was hopeless and Luanne was too enamored with the idea of having her mother around to hear otherwise. And at that point in time, just dimbulb enough to actually drop out of school on an impulse. Peggy kinda has every right to complain. She made the worst choice to protect Luanne when it’s not a choice she should ever have HAD to make. Yes, it was her choice, but the alternative was watching Luanne screw her life over by leaving school to take care of her deadbeat mother. That’s a hell of an awful choice.

It’s hard to report it, you always worry that either the foster system will be worse or social services won’t do anything and then the kid will get abused even more because they visited and it pissed the parents off. Or if it’s two adults that the abusive partner will up the violence if they think people are finding out and they might lose their victim.

    I will say without a shadow of a doubt Leanne is WORSE then Hoyt. This is all do to the ending of their respective episodes, and how Luanne interacts with them both. To Luanne, her dad is her hero. Looking up to him, and seeing him as a good person, with Leanne it seems more like Luanne wants her attention more. Luanne knows her mom has issues but would rather ignore them for her attention, unlike her dad where she genially sees him as a good person.
    Finally their endings. Leanne's is self explanatory as she makes a fool of herself, abuses Bill, steals his car and abandons her daughter.
    Hoyt however I feel realized he really fucked up this time, and how much of a pos he's been to everyone especially Luanne. Him knowing how much she looks up to him, and what her finding out the truth could do to her. While its scummy to hie it from her, he's doing it in the end to protect her. Which is an admirable thing. Both cut themselves off from Luanne, however Leanne did it for a selfish reason. Hoyt cut himself off for her(not just because he was being locked up) but also because Luanne is better without him.
    But maybe Im looking WAY to deep into this.

      ​@@carlycrays2831I'd feel the same way if she didn't use him as a middle class sugar daddy. A glucose guardian, if you will.

    My only theory about Bill not knowing about Leanne is the fact its likely he was married to Lenore and was occupied with Lenore.

    point one the age difference makes a lot of sense based on the characters of Leanne and Hoyt. Point two: Leanne is very much the type to lie about her age

    Leanne seems okay when sober while Hoyt is generally terrible so I'd say Hoyt is worse

      I think people forget that Hoyt was prepared to threaten Luanne's life and the life of her unborn baby.
