Why is King of the Hill on the air?

[Xenon14]

That is by far the worst show ever. I happened to watch it a few times when my rommate last year was watching it. There's absolutely nothing interesting or funny about it...at all. It doesn't fith the Simpsons/Futurama/Family Guy genre... it's not funny.. it's nothing. Can someone explain to me who watches King of the Hill and on what grounds are they compelled to do so?

Because I like to laugh at redneck trailer trash without being shot at with a 12-gauge?

I hate the show, but it's better than Frasier.

That show is great. That's the whole point, its not suppose to fit in the same genre as the other animated shows on Fox. Its kinda like an animated analouge of That 70's Show. It just makes fun of rednecks in Texas the way That 70's Show makes fun of the 70's.

worst show evar!

seriously though it didn't even get a chuckle out of me.

 

[CubicZirconia]

Very good question. Nothing about the show is even remotely funny. It should have died a long time ago.

 

[dighn]

at least it's better than reality tv

 

[misle]

I much preferred Beavis & Butt-Head.

Family Guy.

Rednecks need prime-time comedies as well

That show is brilliant.
Maybe you don't get some of the jokes if you don't live in the South or Texas?

The show makes me laugh. It makes my wife laugh. Its somewhat humorous. Its on the air because some people like it.

 

[gotsmack]

there is usually 1 funny moment in each episode that makes it worth watching.

So... Are you Chinese or Japanese?

I never liked King Of The Hill.

Family guy is awesome I must say.

i think that show is dumb,
its the same crap every time. The dumb kid tried to do something unmanly and the dad is against it.

I think it is supposed to be heart warming. I find the show to be as funny as passing a kidney stone.

Maybe you don't like it because you don't have a sense of humor?
