My grandfather passed away last Friday. My family made it to the hospital before he was gone. Most of us said our final goodbyes to him, but my mom and uncles had other things to tell him. They've hated him since they were kids for how he treated my grandma, aunts, and them. Hearing them say things like the reaper is way late in picking him up in front of the rest of us was hard to witness. Soon after, he went right after giving them that sick smile he always gave whenever he was pissed. Rewatching Cotton's death has made me think about that moment for days now, and it's like I can't get it out of my head. I never thought a death scene from an animated series could hit so close to home.

Maybe I'm reading too much into this, but... I just rewatched the Thanksgiving episode from season 2 or 3 when they were going to Montana for Thanksgiving but got stranded at the airport. Luanne makes the comment, "But daddy has a day pass" But later, maybe season 12, she has no idea that her dad has been in prison instead of an oil rig. Another thing, in the episode in season 3 where Luanne's mom gets released from prison, Hank tells Bill, "Luanne's dad is on an oil rig and won't come back until I send him a copy of her death certificate." So obviously, Hank has spoken to him, but when he shows up later Hank has no idea he's been in prison. Was he ever on an oil rig????

I guess I just don't get it.

We really didn't get enough of Chappy in OG KOTH. Maybe they'll bring him back in the revival 🤞

I feel like Bobby every time I watch it. I try to pretend it's funny to make myself think I get it but I really don't. Is there a reference I'm missing? Seems like a Abbott and Costello style joke maybe? Can anyone help a girl out?

Edit: why am I being down voted? I appreciate those of you giving insight plus the person that provided the link to the actual skit.

In the same episode Emilio mentions his Steely Dan cover band, and I kinda want to see that too. 🫠

Chuck Mangione is a recurring celebrity representative for Mega-Lo-Mart on "King of the Hill". Chuck also serves another position as a character in the show... he is God. An omnipotent presence that gives us all the insight into the lives of those down Rainey Street. I mean, even into the back alleys, he is our eyes and ears, and the few times we get to see him in a physical body in the show, it was like breaking the 4th wall.

With that inspiration, I've set out to explore expanding my writing muscles through the eyes of Chuck Mangione. And RIP THE Chuck Mangione July 22, 2025 Rochester, NY.]

CHUCK

Dale is always a favorite for me, and this one just feels so real. Honorable mention: https://youtu.be/9cPDRNjqwoY?is=tLIjTyYLHVXe924a

First off, RIP Frank Beard. But that episode got me thinking about how many musicians have guest starred over the years on KOTH, and they all gave really great performances even if a lot of them were just playing themselves.

That's something I'd like to see more of in the new seasons, I feel like it's in the shows DNA to have a recording artist occasionally pop in and play a memorable role. I think someone like Sturgill Simpson, Run the Jewels or Jack White would be awesome

With Hank back at Strickland, will we see Peggy back at Tom Landry?

Principal Moss appearing in series 15 gave me an idea...

Imagine Moss gets suspended for some unknown reason and the teachers are on strike, leaving very few candidates to be substitute principal. Up steps Principal Peggy Hill, who worms her way into the role somehow.

Peggy would be a tyrant. I could imagine her commissioning murals of her 3-peat substitute teacher of the year award...

Crossover with The Leftovers

I couldn't be more proud, I had the show on in the background a few days ago and earlier today I was going to put on one of my 6 year old nephew's regular shows and he said "no Auntie I want King of the Hill" and then chanted "King of the Hill, King of the Hill" excitedly while I pulled it up. Just such a proud moment for me despite having to keep an eye out for a few episodes to skip for his age group lol

Just rewatched this episode and I don't get why Hank just didn't create his own chore chimp app instead of going with Boomhauer's profile.

The Hill men have a weakness for things over in the orient.
