what the hell is this take?? why would you want to fix what made her one of the funniest sitcom moms ever? am I wrong to think there's actually something progressive about making her the inept/overconfident one?

@ was this written by Peggy Hill
Yeah this is a dumb take. Some of my fav moments on this show are the understated ones (like I can't actually think of examples but they come up every few episodes) where Peggy enthusiastically enables or supports some of Bobby's weirder and nerdier behaviours/interests. Usually the interests that befuddle (or concern) Hank but are completely innocuous.
I don't think I've ever wanted a reboot to happen less than for this show. Who is even asking for this?

Good question.

so are all the characters going to be 20 years older or are they gonna retcon the timeline like every other animated show? the former doesn't seem too interesting and the latter would be just strange, since Hank is a type of conservative that doesn't really exist anymore

back when we were doing the "which fictional characters would vote for Trump" thing KOTH came up and honestly idk if any of these characters would - Hank wouldn't vote for a New York reality show host, Bill would find him too mean, Peggy would never vote for someone who degraded women so much, Dale probably doesn't vote at all, Khan would find him too stupid, Cotton wouldn't support a draft dodger (but might vote for him just so a woman doesn't take office), who knows about Boomhauer
which kinda confirms to me that this show wouldn't really work in modern times. as funny as Mike Judge is his social/political commentary is often not great. but hey I'll watch it anyway

― class project pat (m bison), Tuesday, 8 March 2022 16:49 (two years ago) link
KoTH characters ca 1999 definitely not. But by 2020 i’d wager literally everyone in the main and supporting cast—except Bobby (maybe!), Connie, and John Redcorn—would be Trump voters with varying degrees of enthusiasm. even Khan.

well that's the internal logic of animated shows, they can reference what year it is and talk about various current events, but the characters themselves don't get any older, so each season kind of retcons the whole timeline. if it's supposed to be 2022 but they're all the same age, then we're supposed to assume they're basically the same characters, right? idk just mentally preparing myself for Hank to say "Lets Go Brandon" in the first episode
― frogbs, Tuesday, 8 March 2022 21:25 (two years ago) link
I'd be more curious to see them age the characters 20 years myself. I would think at that point the show would center more on Bobby and perhaps make the show as he becomes a dad himself. I would not have him married to Connie though.
I'd have it that Luanne got rich and somewhat successful (except with men as sadly Lucky died like Buckley before him) and make Peggy jealous. Have her in a big Texas-sized McMansion etc.

tbh I don't think they'd all go MAGA - my dad didn't sell propane but his suburban white Texan guy friends moved slightly left as often as they moved hard right. Texas liberaltarians who still like guns are definitely a type.
Hank may have been the storied McCain-Obama-Trump-Biden voter.

he wasn’t willing to vote for George W Bush after one bad handshake, I’m sure he’d have found a reason not to vote for Trump

This would, on the face of it, be a dealbreaker for millions of people who ended up voting for him.

wonder if they'll even go on with the reboot now? Brittany Murphy's gone, Tom Petty's gone, now one of your show's most recognizable voices. and they already said they weren't gonna have Khan in it.
