'You gotta be real, Bobby. Get in touch with your white roots. So advises African American comedian and driving-school instructor Buddha Sack (voiced by Chris Rock) in the episode 'Traffic Jam,' and in its second season, King of the Hill mines this fertile territory for some of the funniest and sharpest comedy writing on television. But it's the pitch-perfect ensemble, led by series co-creator Mike Judge as forthright Hank Hill and Kathy Najimy as the formidable Peggy Hill--that also gives King of the Hill a heart as big as Texas itself. Hank struggles to be the voice of reason in a world that often just 'ain't right.'
In 'Hilloween,' Hank rallies the town after a lawsuit by a fundamentalist (voiced with hellfire by Sally Field) shutters the local haunted house and abolishes trick or treating. In 'Hank's Dirty Laundry,' the tenacious Hank is forced to immerse himself in adult video after a video store computer's false claim that he rented and did not return 'Cuffs & Collars' sullies his credit rating. Hank may he hard-headed, but, unlike Homer Simpson, he is never a buffoon. His literal nature provides some of these episodes' biggest laughs, as witness his attempt to one-up put-down artist Buddha Sack in 'Traffic Jam': 'Your mother's hair is short, it looks like she's not a woman at all, but more like a man.' In season 2, Hank continues to look for common ground with his misfit son ('How To Fire a Rifle Without Rally Trying'), and romance begins to blossom between Bobby and neighbor Connie ('The Son That Got Away'). But it is the throwaway moments that provide some of the series' giddiest delights. In 'The Unbearable Blindess of Laying,' Bobby is introduced to the Jewish idiom. 'You said, 'You I like' instead of 'I like you,'' he tells his grandmother's new boyfriend. 'That's funny.' --Donald Liebenson

Rating: - King of the Hill
Great show. It is worth buying the seasons. I love my collection. I can watch these dvds over and over again without getting sick of them.
Rating:  - so many better shows out there....
I am not a snotty reviewer who just likes giving 1 star reviews. I was hoping maybe someone could explain to me why this show is funny. I have watched several episodes (mostly because it comes on after Malcolm in the Middle, which i deem to be a far superior show even if its losing steam after 7 seasons) and maybe cracked a smile through a few of them, but i have never, to my recollection ever laughed. I am not too picky with what i watch (except for reality tv which I think is the worst thing to hit America since 9/11). If you want to watch better television that this watch these shows: Frasier, Seinfeld, Simpsons, Family Guy, Malcolm in the Middle, Lost, 24, Prison Break,and that 70's show. But in my humble opinion in order for a show to go on you have to stop trying to be so damn smart (unless your the brilliant Arrested Development, which was unfortunately canceled:() and start trying to be funny. And also the show has way to many touching moments. The simpsons had them but didn't use them too much, and they only work once in a while because no one really cares if a cartoon dad loves his son no matter what, its a frikkin tv show. Anyways, if someone could please politely explain what is so funny about this show, i would appreciate it.
ps. I have looked over all 6 seasons out on dvd and from the amount of reviews i have seen no one else really gives a [...] about the show. I wonder how its still on the air?
