Peggy: He's gay now if that makes you feel any better.
Hank: BWAAAHHH!
Peggy: No, of course it doesn't.

I’d be interested in seeing that.
A KoTH/Frasier mashup isn't the sitcom we deserve, but mister, it sure is the sitcom we need.

Wouldn't it just be nice to have that chill sort of show where neither Bobby or Hank are the "Bad guy" and it is just a sort of exploration of just how much the world has changed in the past 10 years alone.
What about a show starring a retired Dale -- who is living off of a deceased Nancy's (breast cancer) retirement and her hidden life insurance policy that wasn't through Night Flyer Insurance -- where he goes on a conspiracy theorist's bucket list adventure around the country with Bill and Bobby? They get into tight spots and call for help from Hank to bail them out, but he just screens their calls and works on a intricate carpentry project. Bill had lap-band surgery on the Army's dime, so his skin is a bit flappy-floppy. And Bobby is a podcaster who was unpersoned by the woke for unknown and mysterious reasons, so he's tagging along to try to wring some podcast fame out of Dale's journey. Peggy is in minimum security prison for some trumped up fraud charges; Jeff is shacked up with Melissa Moore in Montana, living the life on a small ranch; John Redcorn is, as usual, getting his grift on with the identity politics; and GH is a gol darn saint, I tell you what.
Nah, even I wouldn't watch that...

Warts and all, I love this series! It's one hell of a nostalgia bomb for me too. I'm sure it is for some of you guys as well.

I just figure that's because Hank is good with money, not that he's well paid. My guess he's a very solid middle class, I think the episode where Bobby thought he was rich, he said he made 40k a year. Not sure how much a substitute teacher gets paid.
As for the tools and other materials. Knows the right people to get good deals, along with knowing what is a good deal.
So, I want to appreciate my favorite Bill episode where he gets diabetes and explain why it's such a good episode. First of all, there's a lot of Fatty Boombalatty jokes in it, which in current year is a public service.
Second, it's a good example of what I mean whenever I say Bill is a Greek Tragic figure. He starts off believing his life of fatassery is predetermined and cedes responsibility to anyone else. He ends up in a wheelchair because he doesn't believe in his own free will. Once he meets the swole wheelchair guy, he finds his heroic will and accidentally cures himself of his diabetes, but instead of seeing that fact, he chooses to intentionally give himself diabetes so that he can become a victim again. If it weren't for Hank and Rolling Thunder, he would have sabotaged himself at his moment of triumph.
Third, the B plot is thematic consistent with the A plot, which is not always the case with a lot of TV shows. Bobby doesn't want to eat seaweed and other such vegetables, but through Peggy's persistence, he develops a tolerance for healthy food. Although I blame Peggy for not knowing how to prepare vegetarian food. All she had to do to make seaweed taste good is put in into a soup mix. She had to have gotten that seaweed from an ethnic market, right? Still, at least Bobby doesn't want to eat cotton candy lollipops anymore.

Well I don't hear any girly screams so either dale's not here yet or he's dead.
Fun fact about that episode (the ex terminator) the music used when the flower delivery shows up is the same kenner used in their Jurassic Park toy commercials from 93-99

Fucking no. How the fuck can you justify this when the show was already limping through its final seasons? I trust Mike Judge, he and Genndy Tartakovsky are about the only people in the cartooning biz that I do trust to make a quality product at this point, but King of the Hill was lightning in a bottle. It's a snapshot of times when shit made sense and how good but flawed people made their way through them.
The second someone on the writing team types the words "OK boomer" onto the script is the moment the nukes need to hit.
...unless it's Hank saying it. Especially if it's to Bobby.
I dunno... Bobby saying that seems proper.

"For god's sake Hank act like an adult. And keep it down guys I'm trying to get through an article on vintage camaros and I've been on the same dang page for twenty minutes. "
Dang ol'...pretty, pretty pizza.
To all of those who haven't got their stimulus yet ...
I wish that kid with the freckles was my spirit animal.
It’s kind of strange that they went to Judge to revive this and Beavis and Butt-head for some reason. I guess they’re trying to appeal to the Generation Z market, since besides this site, I don’t know that many millennials who will still watch Hank and his propane tank just get through the day.
Though, as someone on this thread said last year, Tales From The Tour Bus was actually pretty interesting to watch.
