whenever I'm in need of a fake name I resort to Rusty Shackleford

Kahn, trying to comfort Kahnnie on her breakup from Bobby: "You just dodged a chubby white bullet."

― Oilyrags, Friday, 20 April 2007 16:14 (nineteen years ago)

"Why is your name Kahn Jr?"

"My parents wanted a boy."

"Mine too!"

I stopped watching around 2000 because I started working Sunday nights and the Simpsons was starting to suck, so I couldn't bother to tape it. Watching the Season 5 & 6 KoTH DVDs has been pretty great.

The Southern Gothic episode was fantastic.

BOBBY: I need a window seat, because this flower is wilting.

YES!!! although it's a bit disheartening that none of the many awesome fake names I've devised for myself even comes close to the greatness of Rusty Shackleford

Squid boat!

dandy bobby in that super bowl episode makes me lol 2hard

― A B C, Monday, 23 April 2007 00:03 (nineteen years ago)

Hanks dad character kinda grates after a while. That might be my only complaint of this great programme

― Ste, Monday, 23 April 2007 10:41 (nineteen years ago)

I'm glad he's not on all of the time, the "mean bastard" schtick needs to be used sparingly.

― Nicole, Monday, 23 April 2007 14:23 (nineteen years ago)

yeah 3rded on that

the episode w/ him where the guys are asked to join a roundtable on how to design a new tractor is pretty great though

― deej, Monday, 23 April 2007 14:40 (nineteen years ago)

two weeks pass...

Rusty Shackleford is real!

"Mom, this is just like one of those fundraisers for school where I sell candybars...is there any way you can eat yourself out of it?"

― nickalicious, Monday, 7 May 2007 15:37 (nineteen years ago)

I'm still surprised anyone hates this show. (Uncomfortable with it, sure -- I'm thinking Edd Hurt's post well upthread as well as some other sentiments around -- but hate I don't get.)

― Ned Raggett, Monday, 7 May 2007 15:41 (nineteen years ago)

a lotta people who've never seen it assume it's just Larry the Cable Guy-style redneck pandering

― bernard snowy, Monday, 7 May 2007 15:53 (nineteen years ago)

I really don't know how anyone can stand to live with Peggy, though.

― Nicole, Monday, 7 May 2007 16:55 (nineteen years ago)

God, I fucking love this show. Fave recent rewatch is Hank fillibustering over local water rights after Peggy forced him to read her 'musings' to the commission.

― Abbott, Monday, 7 May 2007 20:41 (nineteen years ago)

The episode where she starts writing her musings is hilarious.

"The whales sing of joy and sorrow, of pain and loss. Like Leann Rhimes."

― deej, Monday, 7 May 2007 20:48 (nineteen years ago)

Speaking of the musings, I loved that one where Peggy wrote a flag essay for Bobby, who would later steal some of her newest musings for others kid's essays he was now having to write.

"Wow, it's Frank Gorshin's birthday. He was The Riddler, you know."

― C. Grisso/McCain, Monday, 7 May 2007 21:01 (nineteen years ago)

thats a gribble of an idea, bill!

― deej, Monday, 7 May 2007 21:02 (nineteen years ago)

"Someone must have hacked into my Kaypro!"

i think i laughed about this for at least a minute. then i had to explain what a kaypro was to my wife.

― GOTT PUNCH II HAWKWINDZ, Monday, 7 May 2007 21:04 (nineteen years ago)

KAYPRO eps. were all classic. Maybe it was just the one, but jesus how awesome.

― Abbott, Monday, 7 May 2007 21:06 (nineteen years ago)

I don't know what a kaypro is

― Shakey Mo Collier, Monday, 7 May 2007 21:06 (nineteen years ago)

[url=[Removed Illegal Link]

Wiki even has a list of other Kaypro references on other shows, including The Simpsons and Arrested Development.

― C. Grisso/McCain, Monday, 7 May 2007 21:16 (nineteen years ago)

oops

― C. Grisso/McCain, Monday, 7 May 2007 21:17 (nineteen years ago)

i'm still watching the shit out of all these.

had to laugh at the latest one, Grand Theft Arlen where Hank becomes addicted to a video game. Very similar to GTA. Altho one of the pimps looked a bit like the guy from Saints Row.

― Ste, Monday, 7 May 2007 22:40 (nineteen years ago)

I like how they stuck in Snoop's cameo/white pimp into the game

― Shakey Mo Collier, Monday, 7 May 2007 22:50 (nineteen years ago)

That guy (I can't remember his name, but he was the Mack Daddy of the OKC) was one of the goldest of all guest voices. When OutKast played the preachers at the mega-church, it wasn't nearly as good.

― Oilyrags, Tuesday, 8 May 2007 00:49 (nineteen years ago)

"Alabaster Jones"!!

― Shakey Mo Collier, Tuesday, 8 May 2007 01:09 (nineteen years ago)

By the way, the bastards at Fox have canceled this series on DVD, so six is the last one. Sucks because I don't get any real channels so I can't really ever see it in syndication.

I even wrote a letter to Fox. No response.

Second greatest show of all time (Honeymooners first)

― Manalishi, Tuesday, 8 May 2007 02:06 (nineteen years ago)

WHY? wtf

― Abbott, Tuesday, 8 May 2007 02:09 (nineteen years ago)

That's UTTERLY fucking bizarre. Can you provide a link?

― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 8 May 2007 02:10 (nineteen years ago)

Fuckin' goobers. I guess the sales figs aren't big enough.

― Oilyrags, Tuesday, 8 May 2007 02:46 (nineteen years ago)

On the other hand, that still gives us most of the peak material, I figure.

― Oilyrags, Tuesday, 8 May 2007 02:47 (nineteen years ago)

I don't know, it has been consistently funny on a level the Simpsons hasn't been able to manage. But I just watch the reruns on fx anyway.

― Nicole, Tuesday, 8 May 2007 03:27 (nineteen years ago)

haha Peggy records her own DVD commentaries

― Ste, Tuesday, 8 May 2007 22:24 (nineteen years ago)

Fox underworld rolled D8 against Judge 3 years ago I guess.

― Abbott, Wednesday, 9 May 2007 04:18 (nineteen years ago)

oh god, greatest episode. Hank forgets to renew the insurance, and so battens down the hatches. Bill and Boomhauer decide to deep fry everything. Dale goes into the bee honey business.

So many funny moments but my favourite was when Bobby turns up the radio to drown out Dales screaming outside, twice.

― Ste, Monday, 14 May 2007 13:42 (nineteen years ago)

oh man, I love that episode so much. especially the ending sequence.

― bernard snowy, Monday, 14 May 2007 14:05 (nineteen years ago)

"IS the john occupied?"

....

"Este juan occupado?"

― Abbott, Monday, 14 May 2007 17:24 (nineteen years ago)

one month passes...

I've decided that the character of Peggy Hill is an amazing creation, and Mike Judge is genius for it.

"In my opinion, the day after Thanksgiving is one of the busiest days of the year to travel"

― Ste, Monday, 2 July 2007 14:15 (eighteen years ago)

I think that every long-running comedy eventually fleshes out the characters enough that you can just have them saying really obvious things -- when you're watching The Simpsons and Lisa speaks, you're expecting a Lisa line, otherwise it somehow seems false, and they're all so predictable.

Somehow King of the Hill is now that fleshed out, and the lines are pretty much all character lines, but they still make me laugh. Better writing?

― mh, Monday, 2 July 2007 14:20 (eighteen years ago)

better characters - the Simpsons characters are now all just ciphers for pop culture in-jokes.

― Shakey Mo Collier, Monday, 2 July 2007 16:47 (eighteen years ago)

Exactly.

― Oilyrags, Monday, 2 July 2007 16:55 (eighteen years ago)

five months pass...

I'm trying to remember an episode of King of the Hill and hoping y'all can help me out.

Bobby is sitting at the kitchen table (I think) with Peggy. Apparently, he's gotten a taste of some big city because he's making fun of the smalltown nature of Arlen. Peggy says something to him and Bobby responds "What's that, mom? I couldn't hear you over the tumbleweeds and the (something else I can't recall)?"

Does anyone know what episode that's from? Episode title and season number would be greatly appreciated. Thanx!

― Kevin John Bozelka, Monday, 31 December 2007 09:06 (eighteen years ago)

Isn't that from the one where Hank took Bobby to the Cowboys training camp in Wichita Falls?

― C. Grisso/McCain, Monday, 31 December 2007 20:41 (eighteen years ago)

> haha Peggy records her own DVD commentaries

that one was on here over christmas. as mentioned upthread, it's gone from friday night highlight to something they put out at 02.xx on weekday mornings. great for the pvr owners and insomniacs, bad for everyone else.

> Hank forgets to renew the insurance

and this one.

― koogs, Monday, 31 December 2007 22:01 (eighteen years ago)

No, that's not it; I just rewatched that one. Although while watching it, it certainly seemed like it would be the episode in question.

Maybe Bobby's getting snooty for another reason... Help?
