Again, this is why Mike Judge should cancel the idea of a KoTH reboot and focus more of Beavis & Butthead, because so far, a world without Johnny Hardwick sounds more miserable and depressing.

I am just dropping by to share one of my favorite KOTH memes and YTPs, even if it's probably been shared before. Never hurts to look back on the classics.
The original episode, Nancy's Boys, is also one of my favorites and I cannot watch it without expecting the quips from the meme. Not that I am complaining.

Don't give them ideas, they might explain a different voice actor by having dale troon out and get a much more feminine voice after cracking up following the discovery that john redcorn was railing nancy for years and suddenly have him start ranting about qanon conspiracies

King of the Hill is the greatest cartoon ever created. We just broke out our boxset to do the yearly binge. 
Recommend the DVDs to everyone. They've got fun fully voiced and animated intros to each DVD that are fun as shit (3rd DVD menu is dale catching you sneaking into his basement and telling you to look around since he already burned and swallowed anything worth stealing)plus all of the streaming places that aren't pirate sites upload the cut versions of episodes. And finally, there are so many deleted scenes that completely change the context of classic episodes. Like the one about Hank pretending to be a "real Texan" to impress the guy who flew in from Boston to buy propane.
In the deleted scenes of the episode, you find out that his wife is actually the one who was in charge of the company, thanks Peggy for showing her a lovely time at home and Hank for keeping her idiot husband away, and signs the contract with Strickland instead.

This is also one of my favorite poops and episodes! DurhamRockerZ really did make some of the best YTPs out there and I think I have most of them memorized.
It's definitely an outstanding show. It's also weird that this is more of a far cry from other Fox animated sitcoms (or most other animated sitcoms) like Simpsons, Family Guy, Futurama or American Dad where these shows are more zany, outlandish and, even in some cases, operatic in scope. King of the Hill remained more down to earth from beginning to end, and even its more weird episodes like Pigmalion or more grand like these two-parter episodes, Hanky Planky/High Anxiety or Returning Japanese, still managed to be down to earth.King of the Hill is the greatest cartoon ever created.

That really is the style of Mike Judge and considering Greg Daniels went on to develop the US Office & Parks & Rec his as well. To laugh at the mundane and absurdity in normal life. The pilot delivers the mission statement as they discuss the finale of Seinfeld with Boomhauer saying "A Show About Nothing."
And by being a cartoon they were able to delve into more personal matters that you simply wouldn't want to see addressed by live action characters. The episode where Hank is constipated comes to mind.
When I think about it what I really liked about King of the Hill is that most of the episodes are about low stakes situations. I feel it's closer in storytelling to Leave it to Beaver or Andy Griffith.
Actually, the finale didn't happen until a year later on May 14, 1998. Boomhauer was literally talking about the show itself.
Double posting here
Turns out Johnny Hardwick did record a couple episodes before his sudden death. but I doubt that the reboot will ever be as good, seeing as how it's only just a couple episodes. Mike Judge, just please continue with Beavis & Butthead.

Dale, you giblet head. We live in Texas. It's already 110 degrees outside. And if it gets one degree hotter, I'm going to kick your ass.

Have any of these sequel seasons of a show worked? I hear Beavis and Butthead is okay, but like I feel like most of the time it goes to shit.
They literally ran out of ideas for KotH in the later seasons and started using scrapped scripts.
Do we really need to ruin a perfectly fine show? Especially with multiple key actors gone now?

New Beavis & Butthead isn't as good, but it is still a fun watch. I doubt that the new KoTH is going to be the same now that Johnny Hardwick is gone.

Cotton knowing exactly what type of Asian Khan is was such a great bit. Very accurate to IRL racists, too.

I watched the Renissance Fair Episode and..I think that I crossed the line where I just outright hate Peggy.

....i'm not sure going the chef route is such a good idea considering how that went. an episode where dale got rooked into joining the super adventure club might get creepy
I'm not sure I want to hear I want to make love to your asshole joseph coming from dale
That said they'll probably have to do something like that to some degree, having him suddenly disappear after a couple episodes wouldn't make sense. Perhaps they'll retool an episode to include dale having a heart attack or getting killed in a car accident or something. Just as long as they don't go full current year and have him tardrage the dead bug van into a group of antifa types yelling free trump! qanon! stop turning the frogs gay! and get shot by the texas rangers or something to that effect

The best way would be that he really catches onto a real conspiracy, a big one, and he's taken out. Something that plays into his character and interests. You outlined the worst case scenario though lol

The Texas Ranger who has to make the call? Boomhauer. Can Boomhauer put his feelings to the side and just fucking kill Dale, or can he find in his heart to save his best friend before he goes too far?
I really hope the reboot stays away from current year political subject matter. I assume they're in too deep on this thing to just not make it entirely, so what do you do with Dale? Do you recast, retool the season and have him pass away during the timeskip, or have an episode which actually features Dale's death?
