I spent years. YEARS. Thinking there were only 5 seasons because that's all that comes in the box set. I could have sworn there were episodes missing though and now it makes sense! Season 6 ordered.

Bombadilillo posted:This show does a lot of reset to normal like you do in a sitcom. The final handful of episodes is particularly glaring like that when watched back to back. In a way it feels like they couldn't decide on a series finale, so they gave a bunch of characters individual finale episodes.

Rewatched Manger Babies. Good ep, especially the Hank's improv as the theatre assistant manager selling popcorn and popcorn accessories. Joe Six-Pack was kicked out of hell for wrecking the devil's truck. The Troy Aikman cameo at the end was weird. His character design looked off model and it had nothing to do with the plot. I'm guessing as it was a Super Bowl episode, Fox insisted on shoehorning him in last second.

Reminds me of the Dales dad is gay episode where at the end Dale says. "Why would I have a problem he's gay? John Redcorn's gay and we've been frineds for years!" Dale wondered seasons before if John Redcorn was gay and then we get the payoff way later that yep Dale has decided that and run with it.

My favourite is Hank talking to those two guys about Ladybird's infertility. He thinks they're brothers, and then it jumps ahead to him explaining in vitro to Peggy later at home. The line went something like "I met these two guys at the dog park, and before everything went horribly wrong, they told me about in-vitro fertilization."

It's great how after Hank asks them out for a beer, they look at each other and go "Uhhhh.......sure."

I loved when the pretty brown girl moved onto Rainey street, became Joseph's girlfriend, and the second John Redcorn sees her mother he drat-near BWAAAHs, for reasons he can never explain to Joseph. At least until it's time for college. Then we'll see which box Nancy checks.

Wait, the actual series finale is Manic Khan-Day? I watched it and thought I had the wrong episode. There's no closure of any kind on anything. e: apparently it was To Sirloin With Love, which is better but not by much https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/To_Sirloin_with_Love

To Sirloin with Love was the last episode that aired on Fox but Manic Khan-Day was the last new episode that actually aired because four episodes only aired in syndication.

Or just a generally good "this is basically where the decent episodes ended" demarcation

It was clearly supposed to be a series finale because the final bit of the episode with the wedding has literally every character show up, even minor ones who never appeared/were referenced outside of their respective episodes like Junichero.

I don't like talking about King of the Hill ending  I prefer to think of it as constantly airing somewhere, new for somebody, even those who have already watched it.  I'm only half kidding.

It's a mixed bag. Cotton is a vile old man who appreciates Bobby's seeming earnestness in grandpa's life. The irony is that Bobby just seems to be very genial and interested in a lot of adults, not specifically his grandpa. But Bobby's the only one who treats Cotton like a person and not an object of praise, hate, ridicule, fear like everybody else. And then Bobby is so desperate for strong role models that he adopts Cotton's mannerisms (and Buck's) because they're men who his father seems to respect AND they give Bobby the time of day. And that all seems to be a result of Hank's inability to provide good models of behavior to his son, especially around women. When Bobby gets exposed to buddhism, he's totally open-minded to it and tries it out. Also that Bobby is the Lama episode is great.

What I love about Cotton is that even though he's probably stretching the truth about his exploits, he's enough of a genuine bad rear end that you know it's not all made up.

In the episode where Peggy becomes Paddlin' Peggy, I never noticed that at the end of the episode she wears the same slacks she got pants'd in, but this time she's added a belt. Also Christ Bobby is an unsympathetic rear end. Your mom just spanked a kid sure, but you know Dooley is a poo poo head, have a little bit of a heart, and don't kick her when she's down.
