PART 2 TO THIS VIDEO DUH!
Part 2!!!!
PART TWOOOOO
How about The Good Family? In the same way Judge took a minor Beavis and Butthead war vet retiree character and spun it into KOTH, he tried to do the same with the namby-pamby hippy teacher from B&B. It tried to do a polar opposite Hank. In the same way Hank is quietly Republican (without just labeling it that), the Good Family are less quietly leftists (they shudder at the thought of running into someone with a flag lapel pin). They shop at Whole Foods and agonize over whether the food they're buying is the good kind. They pick up trash along the road, only to find that the only people who do that are either volunteers like them... or prisoners being punished. They extol their vegan dog, oblivious to the pets and wildlife disappearing around their neighborhood because they won't feed it meat. There are actually some good stories, but the show was kind of hard to take and wearying...and the producers found that while the right loves some gentle comedy poking fun at themselves, the left bitterly despises any criticism. "Windmills!? What's so funny about windmills? We're only trying to save the Earth!" being just one of the furious comments I remember reading at the time.
As of 2021, NFL players can be ANY number they want
When I was younger I thought this show was ok. Funny but not the funniest. Now as an adult it's beyond hilarious as it masters comedy in the mundane things in life.
I hated this show when I was younger. But I rewatched it around the time I started this channel. It’s absolute genius
@@10KProductions yeah it's subtle but once you understand how the adults are it becomes perfect.
Both endings of the show I loved. Bobby learning to grill in his own way seeing how Hank loves to grill and Hank finnaly understanding Khan and becoming true friends with him as Khan becomes comfortable being his own man.
Luanne even grew on me as she went from the girl there to a mature wonderful Mother
A true masterpiece
@@JaRP36 watching clips online just add to the fun of remembering the show. Sad how little we get of down to earth stuff like this. Bob's burgers was ok but it kinda repeated itself and I got bored
@@ivanbluecool ya it definitely fell victim to the modern cartoon dilemma where it lost its charm very quickly.
I think Luanne's ability to work on cars is an ironic twist. She wanted to be a hair dresser, but is bad at it while not realizing her real talent as a mechanic. That's how I always saw that.
A woman fixin a car’ that’s like a ph’eg tryna read.
It was just a quirk of her character that they didn’t bother carrying forward after the first season. That’s flanderization for ya
It really hard for women to get jobs in that kind of thing in the south they pretend that laws dont exist on the subject intentionally keeping business small to avoid having to comply or only hiring women to work in the office and are not trying to hide it they will tell u to your face they won't hire a girl
@@larrystrauchman5126Women aren’t supposed to work on cars, though.
She was first chair at Hottyz
Dale NOT knowing about the affair is way to fitting for his character though. The guy who sees conspiracies in everything but can't notice the actual one right in front of him even with mountains of evidence.
Yup, that’s the joke, but people can’t see that
It’s cuz he’s black and white with trust, he either trusts you fully or not at all. And he trusts Nancy 100%
I remember reading a theory of him knowing out it but playing it as if it's his son in a way to spite redcorn
But that's not fitting of his character, quite the opposite- it's ironic because it's so unfitting
Bobby did change and develop throughout the series. He got slightly taller for one but his personality also matured. He went from having nightmares about girls to being kind of a lady's man because of his sense of humor. He went from accepting everything he was told with an "ok" to challenging his parent's authority and becoming pretty rebellious from time to time and and even pitting them against each other a few times. If course Hank always set him back on the right path 🙂. By the end of the show he is even beginning to show that he can finally handle some responsibility by taking on leadership roles at school such as when he is in charge of the school carnival.
That boy ain't right... lol.
th-cam.com/video/clsJnCm5uhQ/w-d-xo.html
Reading that gave me goosebumps, it is beautiful
@@joelh.6154 yes very good summarization
I read this in Bobby’s voice
And Peggy has always been the worst and always will be
Bobby DEFINITELY developed a lot as a character, and I always felt like he had this lowkey enlightened vibe throughout the show. He was always secretly good at different things. He always picked up information very quickly and learned lessons from things.
Remember when Bobby told Hank about the concept of wabi sabi? ❤️
Does he edit on iMovie?
When they had him roping calves he failed. But he was able to ride a horse beautifully. Him and Joseph would've been unstoppable at team roping and great as a solo mounted shooter
Autism
I've always held a dim view of Bobby Hill. The boy wasn't right and his parents failed to provide him with the proper motivation to improve.
"the strongest man in the universe actually got to meet the silver surfer"
LMFAO, glad I caught that. Hilarious and subtle, just like KOTH
im glad someone else saw this !!
I've seen someone have an idea for Peggy's 2 mothers that I really like; the mother that showed up first was her aunt, Peggy just viewed her as a mother figure instead of her actual mother
When I think back on the enjoyment of the series I like to try and forget the new mother (and the Canadians episode). I’m curious how Peggy’s family made it to Arlen.
that's bothered me for like 10 years! I can accept this theory. I needed this theory.
That would explain how she ended up in Texas but her parents had the ranch the intire time in later episode
@Matte Tea ok
dude .. the first mother is in multiple episodes .. the rancher mother is in only one .. also .. why did they move to Arlen when they had a ranch to live at in Montana? where was Peggys father when they moved to Arlen? etc etc etc ..
i think its probably that ... Peggy's mother and Father got divorced Peggy and Mother moved to Arlen (hence why theres no Peggy's father in Arlen) and back in Montana Peggys father remarried.. the ranch mom is actually Peggys step mother ..
i know several people who have had step mothers and they call both the step mom and the biological mother "mom"
(personally i dont agree with doing that but i never had to worry about it as i didnt even call my own mother mom.. i called her by her name as a kid)
I think the big reason for Joseph going through puberty is just that he was originally voiced by Brittany Murphy who was less available in later seasons due to her acting career, so it was a really convenient excuse to swap out voice actors. Luann got used a lot less in later seasons as well.
For the "Dale knows" theory, there's a couple of episodes that debunks that.
-He was torn apart at some point when he thought that Joseph was half alien, and it took him basically the entire episode to not care and he concluded that the aliens took his DNA to make Joseph.
-At the end of the episode where his estranged father comes back and Dale eventually finds out that he's gay, somebody (Nancy?) asks him if he's really okay with having a gay dad, and he said "Why wouldn't I? John Redcorn's gay and I've been friends with him for years."
-And most importantly: The "he believes in conspiracy theories but he can't see this obvious affair his wife is having?!" part of the theory is the joke. The fact that he believes some really out-there conspiracy theories but can't see the obvious is part of the joke of his character. Knowing about the affair would ruin the main joke of his character. It's in character for him to believe a conspiracy theory over the obvious.
While I agree, one could pass the second example off as a subtle burn. That said, he’s too dense to come to that realization
The problem with the "Dale thinks Redcorn is gay" theory is that in future episodes, he salutes Redcorn for his skills with the ladies.
he spends hundreds of dollars on alien pee every month. he feeds macaroons to his show turtles. who knows how much he spent on nonesterous deer wee wee.
Agreed, but I wouldn't be surprised if Joseph actually learned at one point
I’m u
I believe Bill is a failed super soldier, he should have died multiple times but he's alive, also it seems he heals and gains muscle very fast for his age
Yeah they explained that in an episode
Explain the baldness
Literally is, they gave him pills to take to enhance himself in a military experiment but it didn't work out in the end (obviously)
@@damebesos8497 project walrus.
"the strongest man in the universe got to meet the Silver Surfer."
Nice
I’ve lived in the Dallas-Fort Worth area my entire life and I grew up watching this show. It has a very special place in my heart and it does a wonderful job at portraying suburban life here
"the strongest man in the universe actually got to meet silver surfer"
Lmao
"The strongest man in the universe actually got to meet the Silver Surfer" Lol
Explain this. How’s hank the strongest man in the world?
@@mildred714 sheer fucking will
I'm from GA and it took me an embarrassing number of years to realize Boomhauer's speech pattern was supposed to be funny. I just accepted it because I know people who really sound like that 🤣
Even out in the sticks where I live, we like to laugh at the Boomhauers lol.
I’m from Alabama and…I understand every word he says.
As a kid I never knew it was a thing just thought he was a character like the rest
I have watched the entire series REPEATEDLY for 20 years now, probably hundreds of times, and I STILL catch little funny stuff that I didn't catch originally. It is hands down one of the most clever shows of all time. Furthermore, its "perspective" on a lot of societal and cultural issues is very "common sense". It's not left or right, it's just common sense in a variety of topics.
LOL I also watch it repeatedly and still catch stuff and lmao. Hank can be a real ass sometimes, but i love him. I would love to see a Live Action version
Yep. It’s unapologetic and not politically correct that’s why I love it. The fact that I have loved ones like the KOTH characters is just icing on the cake.
@@KPbouj They're making fun of you
Na South Park is
@@Runningitthroughyou South park isn't nearly as subtle as koth
I don’t think Hank was crazy about propane until he met Strickland while working at the Jean store. So he may have used charcoal up until he started working at Strickland
it is weird they go back and forth on that. as a kid in the order of the straight arrow, hank says his dream job is to work w propane and propane accessories, but then later says Buck introduced him to propane
@@slurm-enjoyer I don’t think I caught that how funny
Joseph changed because Brittany Murphy’s acting career was taking off so they had Luann in fewer episodes and had Joseph grow up and change voice actors.
To her Clueless boyfriend, Breckin Meyer.
I think Dale knows about the affair. It’s an episode where Dale meets a female exterminator and he really clicks with her and Nancy gets jealous and tells him to stop seeing her, and Dale quickly says I never stopped you from hanging out with John Redcorn. Dale knew it all. Lol
Dale knew the whole time. He just pretended to not know after seeing how divorce destroyed Bill
Dale new about John red corn and he was playing the waiting game and the end of the day he got Nancy back
How about the episode where Dale realized he was gone at the time of conception cause he was at some ufo type thing years later that where both Hank and Dale found the boys at...
He made the comparison because he was just friends with the hot exterminator, the same way he thought his wife was just friends with John Redcorn.
also dale has it pretty good i think thats why he goes along with the hole thing
The whole propane/charcoal thing was always hilarious to me as a kid because my house was a charcoal house and this show would always be on in the summer afternoons when my dad was grilling in the yard.
The fact I binge watch king of the hill every week
I've always ranked this show among my favorite animated series, and it is aging like a fine wine. The older I get and more I learn about it from videos like this, the higher I hold it among the greats.
I know two facts that are pretty famous with "King of the Hill":
- The episode "Pigmalion" is infamous among those familiar with King of the Hill for its darker tone compared to the rest of the series, the episode originally being a Halloween episode in Season 5 before being delayed twice by Fox executives due to the episode's tone, and the creepypasta associated with it alluding to a cut scene showing Trip's demise at the hands of his machine.
- Mike Judge originally created the show as a means of parodying Texans but after the show proved popular in Texas due to their conservative values Mike Judge decided to make the characters more three-dimensional and sympathetic.
another one that comes to mind while not as dark as pigmalion but that one episode which name escapes me with a b plot with flat Stanley, and at the end there looking at polaroids of him shredded or chewed up by lady bird etc
Those are facts, not factoids, as they are true. Suffix oid (oedes in Greek), means resembling, hence asteroids resemble stars, humanoids resemble humans, and factoids resemble facts.
@@briandoczahm Thank you. I've updated the comment. 😅
@@alexanderblitz4569 How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Alamo
WHAT HAPPENED TO PIGMALION?? We’re not going to discuss how Luanne and Peggy literally murder a guy in a pig processing plant and then there’s no mention of it ever again?!🤣🥴
There is probably video evidence of what happened. And his eccentricities are probably well known. They would just have to go into Luanne's room to find the clothes and the weird shrine. And one would have to wonder just how he would end up on the conveyor belt and not be able to get off
one tiny thing, i know how difficult it is to pull off a good “blank meets unexpected person” fliperoo but you did it perfectly with the hank strongest man in the universe thing
I adore koth I've watched the entire series countless times and an iceberg for it is up my alley!
Awesome! Hope you enjoy the video!
@@10KProductions ☺️❤
I grew up in the DFW area and never really understood the following the show got, now I’ve moved out of Texas and most of my family has and have grown to appreciate King of the Hill as a form of nostalgia
its my headcanon/theory I like to think that Boomhauer's works as an agent because he follows in his maternal uncle's footsteps because I like to think his maternal uncle is Agent Flemming the enemy from the Beavis and Butthead movie.
For the "Bill is Bobby's Dad" Theory: You mentioned Peggy slept with Hank and 1 other person. That other person was her "good friend" Wayne Trotter who everyone thought were together but they weren't and who used Peggy to test if he was homosexual or not (He determined he was...) S05E15
in the episode when Bobby joins track. There is an ackward moment when bill tells Peggy "imagine if we had a son" and Peggy looks embarrassed as if she were hiding something.
lets be honest .. Peggy turned him gay ...
So we tested him on
......peggy platter
This is a solid video but I do wish you went through all the points on the iceberg
"I'm not going to say that episode name"
It's the theme to Dawson's Creek. You're fired 😂
it just means he doesn't want to recite it and thus be singing the Dawsons creek song not that he didn't know what the song was. its a pretty well known theme song
Not to mention that Peggy says in the same episode where it's revealed she slept with another person that said person was a gay friend in her youth to test if he was really gay. Bill is not Wayne Trotter, so that kind of kills that piece right there.
My favorite thing about the show is how Hank is this Good ol all American hard working blue collar man and is always being put in the most uncomfortable and awkward situations 😂😂
I argue that not only does Dale know about Nancy and John Redcorn. He knows that everyone else knows, especially Hank. One of the reasons why Dale targets Hank for some of his antics and general ire. Hank is supposed to be his best friend and feels betrayed by Hank for not being told about it.
On rewatch, Dale really is absurdly mean to Hank.
The early episodes used to show Hank and the boys throwing all of their beer cans onto the ground, with Peg picking them up.
They stopped that and put out a recycling bin for all the cans.
It's not going to be the same without Luanne.
Agreed
agreed
Brittany Murphy was a doll. 👌🏼
Why isn't she returning?
@@dylanmorgan5589 Brittany Murphy was killed by her estranged parents.
I absolutely despise the Bill is bobby's father theory. the "evidence"is stretched at best and the family recipe thing is clearly given a reason in the episode . people who believe it are so narrow minded and rude about it too.
Everyone who believes this dismiss Cotton Hill. But, Peggy could have still slept with Bill.
Plus in that the same episode where it's revealed Peggy slept with someone else, that person is given a name: Wayne Trotter.
Not to mention the Nancy-Redcorn affair was basically inconceivable to Peggy and had to be spelled out to her. I don't think that'd be the case if she already had her own affair on her mind.
Shut up
It’s just fun to think about dudes.
You could say they're... ENDLESS TRASSHH!!!!!!
I don’t want the show to come back as much as I love it. It ended on a great note.
They could age the characters up
Like Bobby is an adult now and Hank and Peggy are older
Luanne and Lucky would be difficult because both their voice actors died
@@legorobotics1017 Oooh, I'd love a show about adult Bobby and his family.
I thought the show ended horribly, was just so abrupt.
Same here, especially when stuff like this exists today th-cam.com/video/OEmqunDSB_Y/w-d-xo.html
@@legorobotics1017 I had no idea of their passing. That is so sad :(
6:01 Hank has ben seen (at least once) cooking with charcoal.
In the episode where they make the video to get the Cowboys, Hank is very obviously grilling over charcoal with a grill he made from two others.
11:28 Maybe I should watch the first video before commenting hahahaha.
that was an animation error like it said in the video cause. for one they forgot to add in the propane tank on the grill and two the flames on the grill isn't consistent of how his current grill burns with propane in other episodes where he is seen grilling.
The only time Hank ever cooked with charcoal was when he wanted Peggy to compared the tasted of burgers cooked with propane and burgers cooked with charcoal and choose which method of grilling is better
there are a lot of inconsistencies in the story line with Peggy's mother .. how did Peggy grow up in Montana, then go to High school in Arlen? Parents are still in Montana and Peggys mom is very unpleasant to her in later episodes.
I think it's that they left Montana and returned after Peggy got married.
Joseph's design changed suddenly because the original plan for the series was to be non-episodic where the characters changed over time. The network said no since it would cause reruns of popular episodes to make no sense the creators were forced to make the show more episodic. It was important to the show for the Joseph growing up plot line that was the backbone of a lot of episodes so they decided in season 5 it was time for Joseph to hit puberty to make the rest make more sense.
There are a lot of shows that the plots from previous episodes change the next episode. I wonder why the network was so against doing that for King of the Hill.
I’m glad I was into this show at 12 years old so now as an adult it’s even better I actually understand a lot of it
All I know is that this muggy November weather gives me the horribles.
Joseph went through puberty because there were plans to age all of the characters as the series continued but Fox was against it saying they wanted the characters to be in a floating timeline. Since the episode had already aired Joseph was stuck.
13:57 i always figured it was meant to be a subtle joke about her character, that she is completely oblivious to her potential career as a mechanic...it would have been nice if a few other characters had casually mentioned the possibiltiy, though, or even suggested it to her and then she could brush it off and completely ignore it
I really love the boomhauer is keeping tabs on Dale theory. My only issue with it is: they've all been friends for so long how/when would boomhauer have gotten into law enforcement, let alone become a Texas ranger, a rather elite police force in Texas, without anyone realizing it? Especially Dale, I'd imagine he'd want to distance himself from law enforcement at any costs. And if he was a Texas ranger, no one ever asked about it? I can't imagine hank not wanting to hear about boomhauer keeping law and order in Texas.
The theory goes out the window when you see that several times throughout the series everyone clearly knows what Boomhauer does, but they don't say it (clearly it's an audience only mystery, not a mystery for the characters themselves) Khan knows how much Boomhauer makes, Hank has an exceptionally deep respect for Boomhauer not unlike his adamant support of Bill when he first enlisted in the army; Boomhauer is definitely the smartest of the four and the most cultured, but Hank has shown disdain for intelligent cultured people due to their outright jackassery, and while it could be Boomhauer's honesty that he respects, it's quite possible that him being a Texas Ranger is where that reverence comes from (I mean he quotes the man to his son to prove points for Christ's sake) and becoming a Ranger is a long arduous process that one can't really do secretly, there would've had to have been a 10 year period of active duty with law enforcement before he could even be considered for a role like that, he didn't just become a Ranger and then keep it hush-hush. I don't believe he was lying about formerly being an electrician living on a workers comp settlement, that's probably what he did after high school and he probably used a portion of the settlement to buy his house on Rainey Street and then decided to become a cop at some point and eventually ascended to a position as a Texas Ranger
@@demonteprice5870 there’s a theory that he’s just got a fake badge to pick up chicks lmao
He wasn't a Texas Ranger he was a utility worker but suffered an injury on the job gets disability and workman's comp
There's an episode where Dale mentions that Boomhauer is an electrician on worker's comp
@@richardm.667 The Episode called "Nine Pretty Darn Angry Men"
11:10 wow I never EVER thought about it this way. Dale is diabolical. He's using Joseph's love for him as a way to subtly get back at John Redcorn. I love it.
I fucking hate it when people who found lost media are like "no im not just gonna upload it for everyone to see I'm gonna release it in the most roundabout way possible"
with the Cotton faking his death theory, (in his final episode he showed the ability to voluntarily stop his heart), I always thought it was about money. Couple episodes showed his money problems and the climax of one was him admitting his life insurance policy makes him "worth more dead than alive". Considering how he complains about not expecting to raise G.H. (despite loving him) and wanting him to have the best of everything, and earlier episodes showing he is sad that he is essentially the only one left of all of his war buddies, that he faked his death so Didi could cash in his life insurance, provide for G.H. and he could spend his finals days wallowing in his own sadness (like Peggy yelled at him he deserved to the moment before his death). He said he didn't love nobody and nobody loves him essentially wanting to push people away who would be sad about his death, if he survived (he was a tough son of a bitch and doctors were baffled why he wasn't already), he'd be, in his mind, making people sadder for when he eventually does die.
Then how does that explain the ashes?
Love this show and the theories, and the bobby-bill paternity theory couldn't be true since Peggy did sleep with 1 other person other than Hank and she reveals it in the episode Luann virgin 2.0 where Peggy reveals that she slept with a male friend who was "finding" themselves prior to meeting Hank so that's another reason against bill being Bobby's father
Lol Wayne Trotter
It's funny because charcoal is so much tastier than propane. Always found that funny about Hank
With propane, you taste the meat, and not the heat.
It depends. If you have a great cut of meat, you don't want to add smokey flavor bc then you'll cover up the most taste. But if you have a cheap cut, or maybe chicken/fish then charcoal may enhance it a lot
nah propane gooder
Nah man you are tasting the heat, not the meat!
Charcoal is a bastard gas
“I killed fitty men!”
Funny! 10 minutes ago I finished watching the whole series (was being watching it for the past month) and this video just came out!
Awesome video!
I would love to see a part 2. I like the entires in this one even the theories.
King of the hill has some serious cameos on it that when we were kids we wouldn't have cared about but now king of the hill alone is worth the the Hulu subscription
Death to cotton is one of the funniest episodes if not the bests I love when cotton told Hanks wife when he was on in his death bed and told her “Mr Reaper, can you put your hood back on” epic. Cotton calls her hanks wife
From what I've heard, they wanted Joesph to age. Most animated shows had characters never age amd from what I understand, I think they wanted the characters to age and used Joesph as a test.
Wish that wedding cake scene was there, I feel so bad for Bill
GOOD STUFF! You forgot to mention that Hank referred to Butane as a "BASTARD GAS". LOL! Damn, I miss this show!! (I tell you H'wat). Wow! I heard about the spin-off, but I did NOT know that a pilot was actually made! COOL! Waiting for part 2!!!
In the episode where khan moves in, hank eats a charcoal burger and loves it
King of the hill has always handled social issues pretty good. If it does come back I do hope it continues that.
My theory is Dale is well aware of Nancy and John Redcorn.. he uses it to passively agressvive manipulation
Found your TH-cam video yesterday & was sad today bc I watched every video on your channel but poof when all hope was lost you uploaded!! & ofccc it was koth, you’re a goattt 🐐!!
Happy to help
Actually, the original series finale was supposed to be season 10's episode, "Lucky's Wedding Suit". KOTH was on the verge of being cancelled that season so the original ending for that episode was Hank and the guys in the alley, reminiscing about past episodes , shortly after Lucky and Luanne's wedding. It was supposed to end with the same overhead pan of Arlen that the pilot started with. (The network decided at the last minute to continue the show's run, so those scenes were taken out). It's also the reason you see several guest characters from past episodes as wedding guests in that episode.
Truly one of the best pieces of American media. Just a great show for any and all ages. I know when I become an old man, this will be that one show always on repeat.
"The show's been canceled for like a decade now"
The show had a proper ending and finale. It wasn't canceled.
From what I remember it actually was cancelled to make room for a show that ended up getting cancelled pretty fast.
How was that a finale and proper ending ?
Being cancelled didn't have the same meaning as it does now lol
@@InconspicuousStranger Did you watch the episode? No, nothing major happened. There was no time skip or a death or a wedding or anything, but it gave a proper send off to the characters and had everyone come together for a feast. Nancy got her massage from Dale, Khan let Connie take a break from studying, we find out Boomhauer's job, all in one scene. It's not typical, but it was certainly a send off.
@@waitselljones8068 I suppose. And Kahn and the “hillbillies” got along
The older i get the more i appreciate this show
that 73 hp splash and sound effect had me in tears hahaha, good vid man
The LuAnn Platter meal is pretty damn good too.
I watch this show a lot and it’s soo wholesome
Now that the voice actors for Lucky and Luanne are no longer around, an idea for the plot would be that Lucky and Luanne were killed by a Mexican cartel, someone way up in the organization, and Hank and Peggy saw it, and are put into witness protection, and Hank is given the alias of Tom Anderson...
1 problem though, Beavis & Butthead is set in the 90s and the later seasons of King Of The Hill use modern technology, so while that sounds interesting, there's a whole lot of plot holes there.
@@OtisDriftwood-mp7hg True, I just thought maybe, like in Dark Souls games, in cartoon universes time is convoluted.
Boomhauer being a Texas Ranger never really made sense, because he doesn't give off any "lawman" vibes and he does commit some petty crimes. (Well, technically, he confesses to the goose-killing, but is not understood.) His life doesn't seem like a lawman's life; he has a lot of free time, never leaves "on call", and he doesn't intervene when situations get out of hand, flashing his badge to take control of violent or dangerous situations.
Dale knows everything on a deep and suppressed level and his brain lets that out in all of his other conspiracy theory madness - it's pretty classic sublimation.
I will miss luanne and lucky.
“It’s weird that she didn’t follow down that path, but if that’s what she wanted it’s for the best”
Bro, it’s a cartoon character… haha
Been waiting on one of these Thank you
The way it seemed to me all these years was that the pronounced narcissism was because surviving the fall gave her a bit of an "invulnerability" complex... or whatever its called.
Same here. Yeah, brain damage might explain some of it, but her ego was always there. And when you look at her mother and her life, it makes a ton of sense. She needed that narcissism to survive.
@@carlycrays2831 right, definitely. I didn't mean to imply it was a "mental illness" alone... I was meaning to say that surviving the fall made it that much worse.
perhaps "PRONOUNCED" was the wrong word to use...
perhaps, EXACERBATED?
that should have correctly implied that the narcissism was there before, right?
@@abigails4088 Yeah, that's much better. And Peggy's Spanish is pretty bad. In the episode where they go to Mexico for vacation, you can even see how Peggy tries to understand Spanish words she doesn't understand the meaning to.
Never liked this show as a kid recently watched the whole thing on Hulu and absolutely loved it. Very funny moments heart warming moments and angry moments. Great show
26:45
I've watched this episode in particular a thousand times, but actually hearing a summarized description of how Cotton ends up in the hospital made me laugh out loud! What absurdity?! Thanks for the vid.
Thank you 🙏this is what I needed in my life😎
They also change Hank's neighbors housing positions. Some episodes they step out their front door and you see his friends houses cross the street and then sometimes his friends house are cross the alley behind the house.
no .. bills house is across the alley to the left dales is to the right (front of house facing like your at hills front door) and Khans is to the left and Boomhauer's across the alley to the right .. their houses never move .. you seem to be confusing the alley for Rainy St. Luanne and Lucky house is next to Bills .. the McMansion was directly across the street then Boomhauers then the power station house is to the right of boomhauers house ..
tell me a single episode where any of the Rain St groups houses is across Rainy St and not in the Alley .. which brings up the point .. that Billy and Boomhauer do not actually live on Rainy St as the front of their houses would be on the next street with the alley inbetween that street and Rainy St which we know Hanks house is on ..
@@KenMabie In Bills of Sale, when the package is being delivered, it's clearly in front of the Hill's home and Bill is across the street working on his lawn and then goes to their front door to deliver the package. That is one example. There are others I can't remember the exact episode, but there are many times when Bill and Hank go to their front door to knock, so are they walking completely around the block or thru their back yard just to knock on their front door?
@@DebitAdams look at the episode when Bill goes to jump off his roof across the alley , episode Bills House, episode Bulk Bill and the Body Buddies, Boomhauer and Bill deep frying in the drive way etc etc etc...
Just because Bill was working on a lawn (something he is known NOT to do in his own property and is mentioned by both Hank and Dale) doesn't mean it's his house.. Bill could be doing it for pay or for a female neighbor just being plain old creepy Bill.. and yes..
Hank is 100% the type to walk all the way around to Bills front door... You know he's that anal retentive... You know he's socially awkward like that .. even with his own friends ... So yeah.. when you see Hank at Bills front door that's part of the joke about Hank that he's so uptight he woke easily the way around rather than the informal back entrance...
Don't you ever notice how annoyed he is when Dale or Bill comes to his back door
Also too many innuendos in this reply... Coming ... Back doors .. back entrances ... Body Buddies...
@@KenMabie You totally ignored my answer. I agree the designed layout is the houses are in the back alley. You are correct. Yeah, Good. OK
Seriously would love a part 2, loved this video a lot and saw some interesting things on that iceberg!
Looking forward too part 2
Arlen is named after Arlington, TX. Judge said this in an interview somewhere and I live about 15 min from it. The Dallas Cowboys actually play their games in Arlington, not Dallas, so you have all seen the real Arlen for the past 13 or so years and not realized you were watching our favorite town
Junichiro isn’t Luanne’s uncle. He’s not related to her whatsoever. So him being at her wedding is very confusing
Uncle by marriage, since Luanne is Hank's niece by marriage.
@@RantingRagingRelks that’s not how that works
Could work that way in Arlen…
I don't think Cotton killed Luann`s roommate because in Hank and the great glass elevator you can see him chasing after a different one of luann`s roommates with a watergun .
Great video; thanks for taking the time to make it!
Speaking of "forgotten" characters having sudden and extreme personality changes... Douley's parents do this, too. In the episode about Paddlin Peggy, his dad talks normal with a higher pitched voice, and the mom speaks slowly and dim wittedly. We can see Douley takes after his mom. But then later on in the episode where they all get cell phones because Douley runs away, when they're getting their Christmas photo taken Douley runs away again. His mom not only looks COMPLETELY different but she speaks totally normal, even making a number of smarmy remarks, while his dad is the one with the deep voice who talks like he only knows 10 words.
I love how us millennials are finally starting to come around and appreciate this show for how good it is
Ugh
Gen z too, a lot of my friends have been watching it lately. I grew up with it, but started appreciating it a lot more
It helps that they're actually playing it on TV again
@@Cartoonman154 many of us have too, idk why you're acting like it's some sort of niche flex.
King of the Hill has been my favorite show since I was like 10 and I'm 31. I worry about what they would do with Luanne's character without Brittany Murphy and how they would navigate the current social climate. I just don't expect it to hit the same and I wish producers would support the e artists who are out here telling new stories rather than trying to capitalize on our nostalgia and ruining the legacies of these shows.
What about Lucky/ Tom Petty ? He Passed away as well.
well it's been 10-15 years since the show has been off the air and Brittany Murphy has been gone & in the last season she was barely on the show so they can either write her off or give her a new voice character to make her sound older
Love KOTH, just watched the Monsignor Martinez you linked and i haven't laughed that hard in a long time, a missed opportunity.
Rewatching this show as an adult makes me realize what a gem it is
My guy goes from an Always Sunny video to KOTH. This is why I fuck with 10k.
Thanks bro
@@10KProductions im a big fan of you!
Much as I want Cotton to still be alive, it seems kinda impossible since he died I a hospital and people would notice if the body just vanished.
He reminded me a bit of my own grandfather who died in a sad, lonely way on Christmas and I cried when watching Cotton Hill die onscreen.
Nah it could work just have stuff happen off screen and nooe know or realize about it
Look at ending of the pig episode the guy dies and gets turned into food that later would be served to people and the episode just ends what happened after? Did Peggy just leave and let man get eaten and the guy is just missing forever or did police end up showing up and do police work
Luannes wedding was supposed to be the series finale. But it got picked up again.
The last one didn't make sense because cotton dies WAAAAAAAY after that happened.
Great video dude!
Hal could be Hank's half-brother look at GH Hill
I always assumed Arlen was always just the metroplex of dfw and just they got lazy and didn’t want to spell Arlington which is between the two.
great! please more king of the hill
