Cotton takes the rap for Bobby burning down a church. If that's not a good grampa I don't know what is.

Cotton is by far the most entertaining character but also the most consistently toxic human being

At least Bill is harmless most of the time

I was 14, just a little older than Bobby. But I knew Uncle Sam needed me, so I lied and signed up. We had beat the Nazzys in Italy, and they shipped me to the Pacific theater. A Tojo torpedo sent our troop ship to the bottom. I could only save three of my buddies: Fatty, Stinky, and Brooklyn. They were kind of like you fellas, only one of them was from Brooklyn. Out of the sun came a Tojo Zero and put fitty bullets in my back. The blood attracted sharks. I had to give 'em Fatty. Then things took a turn for the worse. I made it to an island, but it was full of Tojos! They were spitting on the U.S. flag! So I rushed 'em, but it was a trap. They opened fire and blew my shins off. Last thing I remember, I beat 'em all to death with a big piece of Fatty. I woke up in a field hospital, and they were sewing my feet to my knees.

Ah, that's right. He only fed Fatty to the sharks. I am greatly ashamed at my erroneous post.

Living in eastern Canada with a LOT of (properly pronounced) Acadian/French names, this was my favourite.

The trick to mispronouncing it the way Rad did, is to say it as though it had 's added to it.

Cotton genuinely loves Bobby.

Dale was most annoying in the episode where Hank goes to anger management. It was the peak of him being annoying though.

I feel like the essential conflict with Cotton is neither he nor Hank (badhank) can admit Cotton hosed him up. Bobby has none of Hank's neurosis.

Cotton loves Bobby because he's his own man, unlike Hank, who's constantly seeking somebody else to emulate. Bobby is comfortable with just being Bobby, in the same way Louie Anderson isn't suicidal. Hank will never be satisfied with just being Hank. You know, inna final analysis.

Bobby is a lazy little poo poo, especially in some early episodes. However, this all pays off when we get the military academy episode where Cotton tries and fails to break him.

Although Cotton in generally a terrible person, he's a fantastic character. And he even does admit to Hank that he screwed up as a father.

And also he has one if the best death scenes of any character on Tv. He died just to spite Hanks Wife.

He admits it in a "maybe I messed up boy. But that doesn't make you not terrible bh" kind of way.

I think the Cotton/Hank/Bobby dynamic is summed up pretty well by Cotton himself.

"Hell, if it's a contest on who's the better daddy, you win. I mean, you made Bobby. All I made was you."

That really seems to be the one redeeming factor that Cotton finds in Hank, that he could come to raise a grandson for him that he could love as much as he does Bobby. He's pretty much the only person or thing on earth he doesn't have some sort of hatred or contempt for.

This show does a lot of reset to normal like you do in a sitcom.

Only without the reset part.

See Bill finding love and then its just never spoken of again. Or also Bill cutting hair in the secret army arcade. Or Lucky spending an episode in a hospital because he canonically gets injured and sues for a job. Then a few episodes later the plot is them trying to get him to a hospital.

Although. Arguing against myself. I'm pretty sure there's good continuity with Luckys money. He starts saying he got 52000 and wont have to work a day in his life. Later he has less and less I know 15000 was in there. And then he needs money for the wedding.
