The most frustrating episode remains the one with Bill's BBQ sauce.

Why the hell did Hank side with Bill's cousin, it just felt like the writers contriving a way to make Bill a sadsack again by the end of the episode.


Hank didn't side with Bill's cousin. Hank told Bill to sell the sauce anyway despite Gilbert's disapproval but Bill stubbornly refused.

And it was so sad seeing Bill lose Laoma to Astronaut Schmidt :(

'Tour de haute rive' translates to english better as High River Path or High River Pass. 'De la fontaine' in this context is more likely to refer to being from near a spring or font of potable water than a literal fountain.

I've been slowly watching through the series again and season 12 really is full of bad episodes. Trans-Fascism in particular was egregious. It might be the worst example in the series of a writer turning it into a soapbox for conservative viewpoints instead of a more balanced perspective making fun of both sides. The dialog of Khan/Ted and Bill as the liberal strawmen were particularly poorly written, as well.

"Think about it, Hank. If the government isn't deciding what we can and can't eat, who will, huh? Who will?"

Could you be any less subtle?

He's right though. There was a palpable shift from Hank being the butt of the joke to being the only sane man on earth. Mike Judge skews more right wing and did a promo in Hank's voice for InfoWars

I finally made it through all pages! Anyway; I loving love this character. I also loved it when Hank freaked out over Bobby becoming a dandy.

The boy ain't right, I tell ya hwhat.

Also, I'm among the demographic that watched this show as a kid in middle school, snickered at the sex talk episode but then tuned it out. As an adult, NOW I adore the subtle humor that I haven't seen anywhere else on an animated or even a live action show.

There was previous talk of Hank having no rear end and if it were a real thing and... yes. It is. I met a girl in my post-jail program and she seriously looked like she only had a pair of flap jacks in her pants.

EDIT: Dale was actually modeled after Robert Patrick and Mike Judge wanted him to be the voice for the character but Patrick declined. Judge kept the look of Patrick for Dale though. I found that amusing since I adore Patrick's acting. :v:
