Oh my God. I've finally figured it out--I know why people watch King of the Hill! It's because of Beavis and Butthead! The man who... does Hank's voice or is one of the writers was a big part of Beavis and Butthead. And that is why people watch King of the Hill. It's not the worst show--even I like to watch it. But sometimes the 90% annoying characters make me wonder why I--or indeed anyone else--watches the show. However, I see now. I can't say that I enjoy Beavis and Butthead, but I can understand if some of their following transferred to King of the Hill.
Ah! That makes a lot of sense. The first season of King of the Hill even looks very similar to Beavis and Butthead, animation-wise. I think that's why I turn the channel or mentally tune it out whenever a first season episode is on.
ReplyDeleteI think the guy who did (most of?) the writing and the voice of Hank also write the script for Idiocracy.
