King of the Hill is about suburban Texans, not exactly what I would call rednecks. Its a good show besides.

You guys need more joy and less hate in your lives. Just take in the good moments in life and quit worrying about things for a bit.

In much of Texas, most people call rednecks "bubbas", and make fun of them every bit as much as we do.

Hank & crew are good ol' boys not rednecks.

I've lived in San Antonio most of my life, but my inlaws are pure Abilene and it's freakish how many mannerisms and whatnot Judge got right. Dale getting cucked is a pretty great running joke. Anyway, have they announced when the next season is going to start? And what the gently caress am I supposed to do with these Hankbucks since I missed the towel deal?

Frame them on your wall. Or give them to me to frame on my wall.Mr. Nice! posted:Hank & crew are good ol' boys not rednecks. I use redneck as shorthand for white trash, I don't even know what a good ol' boy is but the difference to me is negligible - either way I knew too many people like that growing up and don't enjoy watching them in my televised entertainment. I don't care if it's making fun of them, I find the characters unpleasant to watch.

I wouldn't say small town- Arlen is modeled on Richardson, which is part of the DFW metroplex.

Dude King of the Hill is about lower-middle class folks from Texas, like the most middle of the road people imaginable. not swamp monsters or something. It's a far cry from even something like Squidbillies and not being able to stomach it is really weird, and also the animation is wonderful, but anyway

Especially considering there are episodes that have actual rednecks and white trash and the main characters want to have nothing to do with them, except when there's burled walnut at stake.

Rednecks/white trash tend to be blue-collar low income families, people who live in trailers and poo poo. Hank & friends are just your typical middle class suburban conservatives.

I just didn't like King of the Hill. Or Seinfeld, for that matter. I loved Arrested Development, though, so go figure. Oh, and Venture Brothers. I love Venture Brothers. Which this thread is ostensibly about.

The difference between Seinfeld and Arrested Development is that I never actually ended up hating the Bluths.

There are good jokes in Season Four but it fails to cohere the way Season 2 (best season) does. A large part of that is the fact that they had trouble getting the whole ensemble in a room together.

That doesn't mean that I found them unpleasant to watch, though. I reveled in their badness, and loved how low they had become by the finale. I get no such pleasure out of Hank Hill vehemently defending fossil fuels, or destroying his son's self confidence. Either way, this has nothing to do with how amazing Venture Bros is.

So I just watched the venture bros panel - any speculation as to whom Paul f. Tompkins will play? They seem to specify that he's only present in flashbacks - Monarch's father maybe?
