What are some of yall's favorite KOTH quotes? Some of the funniest,
IMHO are:
(When Dale thinks he has Rabies)
Hank: "Dale, if you come down now I promise not to kick yer ass
later!"
(Dale talking about global warming... "GLOBAL" warming...)
Hank: "Damnit, Dale. We live in Texas. It's already a
hunderd-and-ten in the summer and if it gets one degree hotter I'm
kickin' yer ass!"
(Joseph talking to Bobby about.. something..)
Joseph: "My dad says....." (something-or-other)
Bobby: "You mean Dale Gribble?"
Joseph: "Yeah, my dad!"
Bill: "I'm so depressed I can't even blink..."
My favorite, though:
Hank: "Hello?"
Dale: "You don't know who I am but I know where you live...."
Hank: "Damnit, Dale, it's Hank."
Dale: "Oh.. Is Peggy there?"
Hank: "Yeah, hang on. Peggy, phone for you. It's Dale."
Peggy: "Hello?"
Dale: "You don't know who I am but I know where you live...." (etc.)
Later on....
Answering Machine: "You've reached the Hill residence. Leave a
message. BEEP."
Dale: "You don't know who I am but I know where you live..." (etc.)
"Oh, and tell Hank we're fishing tomorrow. Bye."
I love it! Oh, and by the way. Those quotes come from memory and may
be (quite) misrepresented. But you get the jist of it, I tell you
what.
Yep.

Earl Warren.
I may not have gotten that last one right, but you've got to admire a show
that makes Supreme Court references.

Just about anything Cotton ever said is quotable:
"A Japan-man stole my shins!"
"I'll have a mai-tai, Mister Khan!"
This one is even better considering who it is directed at.
Cotton also uses "Tojos" as a perjorative for Japanese, obviously a
refeernce to Prime Minister Hidekei Tojo, but I've never heard that one
myself, and my Grandpappy is a regular encyclopedia of WWII-era racial
slurs.
Does anyone have Khan's eulogy for Buckley transcribed? It kills me every
time. "I cry a river of tears for Buckley!"

And the newsgroup springs to life!!
Peggy: "Your grandfather lost his shins defending Texas in WWII."
Hank: "Fine. You're a Texan. Change planes in Dallas, you're a
Texan."
Dooley: "You're dead!"
Peggy: "Espanol, por favor..."
Dooley: "To es muerto." (?)
Khan: "You should thank me, Khan-Jr. You just dodged chubby white
bullet!"
Bob Strickland, lecturing Hank about cheating with his wife: "Soup's
good food, Hank, but keep yer spoon in yer own bowl!"
DiscoStu
Dooley rocks. How about in the 'Sex-Ed' episode:
Dooley: "Your mom's gonna teach sex ed..."
{LATER, Dooley turns to the kid next to him.}
Dooley: "Your dad lost his job..."
I LOVE IT! I thought of more:
In a recent episode, Hank, Dale, Bill and Boomhauer are held prisoner
in "Mad Dog"'s home:
Hank: "Damnit, Dale, you're not even a soldier. The only soldier here
is Bill and he cuts hair!"
Bill: "I'm so scared..."

Bobby is playing 'Wipe-Out' on his gut with a pair of Egg-Turners:
Hank: "Bobby! Those are propane accessories! They should be treated with respect!"
I just love how Hank says 'Propane Accessories'...
Hank, Buck Strickland, Bobby, Dale, Luanne, Joe Jack and Peggy, in Unison:

My wife got a little annoyed at this, and said "Are the show's writers
making Peggy look stupid?" I said, "No! She's not stupid! She's just
stubborn. She likes the name 'Propane Maniacs,' and she's sticking with
it."

She's no dummy, but I think she's not as smart as she thinks she is. Note
her atrocious Spanish, and her clinging to the Subsitute Teacher of the
Year Award. She also calls herself a journalist, even though all she does
is write the musings column for the local Pennysaver. There's a
self-esteem problem in Peggy (perhaps stemming from her big feet) that she
covers of with the facade of being an intellectual.

A certain kind of stubborness - the kind build upon such insecurity that
it has to be propped up by arrogance. A narcissism thing, really. Very
annoying at times, yet also great fodder for material.

I laughed most at her belief that she could qualify for a Ph.D. in one

I dunno; this is the woman who shreiked at Bobby to get away from the
spider plant, because it would "suck the oxygen right out of your lungs."
Who, when Hank started his run with the Olympic torch, screamed for the
crowd to stop him, that he was running the wrong direction. Then, when she
realized she was mistaken, covered up by yelling in an officious tone:
"Everything's under control!" as though she had resolved something. She's
a gentle blowhard; deliciously dim, but perpetually convinced that she
knows more than anyone else. Like a lot of people.
There's a line from the movie Broadcast News that reminds me of Peggy's
character. Holly Hunter's character is arguing with her boss, whos snarls
sarcastically at her, "Well, it must be nice to always be right, to be the
smartest person in any room." To which she replies in a small, tired
voice, but with apparent satisfaction, "No. It's horrible."
Personally, I love that Peggy is as essentially unethical and petty as
Hank is basically good-hearted and well-intentioned. And that while Peggy
is morally certain and devoid of critical introspection, Hank is always
racked with guilt.
My favorite lines, paraphrased from memory (besides the spider plant warning):
Khan Sr.: "Look, redneck hillbilly got no shoes on, big surprise." Or,
regarding a huge pyramid of burning toilet paper: "Hey hillbilly! Those
not logs, those for wipe-y wipe-y!"
Bobby: "Let's get it together people, this little bit of capers is NOT
gonna get me through the weekend." Or, squealed with delight, when handed
a cane by his doctor: "Does it come with a HAT?!"
Connie: "His toe speaks with a French accent, and he calls it Madam."
Peggy (pause, and a stricken, but blank look): I did not know that."
Some Metabolife nitwit: "You know they have the regional meetings right
here, and they roll back that divider wall." Peggy: "Well, Peggy Hill has
GOT to see that."
Peggy: "Well, If it doesn't have Merchant/Ivory or Billy Crystal above the
title, frankly, I am just not interested."
M.W.
You took the words outta my mouth! I love it. Last night's episode
(when Peggy impersonates a nun) was kinda drab.. but it did have a
killer line:
Peggy has a nightmare that her class in the Catholic school is being
taken over by the Devil. The fires of Hell cease. Hank Hill appears
and hooks up some more propane tanks:
Hank: "Now that is one clean burnin' Hell, I tell ya whut!"
OMG, I lost it there..
And the local Fox here replayed that damned 'Meet the Manger Babies'
episode.. they've played it like seven times this year already! I
never thought I'd say it, but.. I'm getting sick of a King of the Hill
episode.
Hank: "I am the Assistant Manager. I sell popcorn and popcorn
accessories."
Yup.

One of my favorite John Redcorn bits isn't even spoken:
When Peggy starts going to him for massages, Hank stops by to warn him in
no uncertain terms not to cure Peggy's headaches the way he cures Nancy's
headaches.
Hank ends his diatribe to John with "..and I'll kick your ass!" even
though Redcorn is younger, taller, in better shape, etc.
John Redcorn doesn't say anything, but a light breeze tousles his
hair. That's all there is, but it's one of my favorite bits.

The Los Angeles Fox affiliate that I get off the dish was showing "Single
White Plastic Female" (the one where Bobby kisses LuAnne's practice
head) as pretty much the default episode for about 3 months. I got a litle
tired of it. But I still watched it, which says more about me than
anything else.

the same estimate that gave her an A+ personality and A- looks? hehe
IMO, the point of the show is that Hank and Peggy are both proud of things few
people would be proud of and to ridicule Texas overall. Peggy Always mentioning
herself being voted the substitute teacher of the year 3 years in a row, boggle
champion, etc. Hank being proud of selling Propane and propane accesories(When
i Grow up I want to sell propane and propane accessories...if my grades are
good enough"). Maybe Mike Judge is just saying how some texans are very happy
with their lives and end up taking relief in such relatively meaningless
accomplishments.Hope that didn't offend anyone- just what I think judge is
trying to say.

Indeed. My take on Judge's message is to draw people's attention to
the 90% of the country that isn't LA and NY.
I use that one in House Committees when i protest stupid bills they're
proposing. For some reason most of the legislators don't find it very funny
when i respond that way to them...

Last I heard (quite a while ago), Judge lives in South Austin, which
is pretty Arlen-like. I grew up in Elgin, about thirty miles away. I
agree with you; it's very true-to-life. In fact, it's truer than any
live-action TV series I've ever seen that was set in the South or
Southwest - lil' bit of irony there.
And I know people who are a lot like the characters, too. My
brother-in-law is a lot like Boomhauer. Cotton was practically my
grandfather in his general attitude (well, without some of the
misogyny :-) ).

Back in the FAQ file there were some hints that Arelen represented a lot
of places. For what it's worth, the ZIP Code for Arlen (from the doghouse
episode) is 78104, which is also the ZIP for Beeville, which fits the
geography of some of the road trips, like to Port Aransas. But we've got
people like Arlen's right here in Maryland, and we had them in New York
when I lived there. Arlen is America.

A nurse to Hank: "Uh, Mr. Hill? I'm going to have to ask you to relax your
buttocks for me please."
Bobby, heavily influenced by a visit from Cotton, says to Peggy (right before he
smacks her on the ass): "Well woman, what are you waiting for? Get me my
dinner!"
Hank hangs up the phone after Debby talks dirty to him: "Ugh!! I just had PHONE
SEX!" This is followed by a priceless shudder of total disgust :-)
Cotton tells Bobby that he got a deal on his wife's boob job because "They're both
lefties."

Some times you really have to pity Hank, with the way he can't deal with
so many things.

That episode also has Cotton telling Luanne (I'm working from memory

tell you."
And Luanne, from the same scene: "Try that again and you'll be wearin'

"Pump jockey!"
One of my favorite quotes is from Bill, sipping a beer, "I wish I had a son to kick me in the testicles."
After whacking him in the crotch a la Butthead kicking Beavis, Dale says, "Be careful what you wish for."
Or, from the episode where Bobby goes to his first boy-girl party:
Hank: "So, Bobby, are you worried about catching any cooties?"
Bobby: "What are cooties, Dad?"
Hank: "Well, when I was a boy, cuties are what we called the germs that girls gave boys."
Bobby: "You mean like chlamydia, Dad?"
and my all time favorite, in "Not in my Back-Hoe," where Hank gets out of the car to face a pursuing pimp.
Peg: "Hank, be careful!"
Hank: "Don't worry, Peg; after all, he's from Oklahoma."
All the above, of course, are paraphrases.
