I can totally see Hank running a podcast about Propane and Propane accessories out of his garage.

Real talk here. A few years ago, a cottaging magazine had a big article about propane in it, and as I was reading it in my head, I read the entire thing in Hank Hill's voice.

I didn't even think about it either, I just subconsciously started reading it in his voice.

I was thinking, now that we're getting a revival, they should also look back. Maybe the time for this kind of show has passed, but in my head, I've been workshopping an idea for a live action King of the Hill prequel. It would take place in a span of time between the 1960s and end in the early 80s. It would be a crime drama chronicling the rise of a young Arlen businessman. It would be called Buck.

In the final episode, Strickland accidentally spills a bunch of BBQ sauce on his pants at Sugarfoots and it ends with him driving to the mall to buy a new pair at Jeans West.

Edit: But who would play Strickland? The Breaking Bad inspiration puts Jesse Plemons to my mind.

Stephen Root voiced the guy, and is an incredible character actor. He could totally pull off playing irl Buck.

Detective No. 27

He'd be good for the final season but they'd need to get someone younger for the early season that takes place in the 1960s.

Who would play Buck's loyal first propane employee, Thatherton?

I'm nae the voice o' the darkened thistle, but th' darkened thistle cannae bear the sight o' our Bonnie Prince Bernie nae mair.
A young Buck Strickland, played by Timothee Chalamet, comes back from the Korean War with his best buddy, Milton Thatherton, played by Finn Wolfhard. They both get jobs with a local fuels magnate, Big Tex, played by Stephen Root. The cutthroat, aging, childless kingpin sees both young men as potential successors to his business empire, and plays them off each other. Each engage in a series of actions that will test their morality and friendship as they spiral down into a sticky morass of sin and criminality among the backdrop of Eisenhower-era Texas.

At one point Buck Strickland enlists the services of a whiskey drinking, PTSD-riddled Cotton Hill, played by Jesse Plemons. He will be Buck's triggerman.

They could get some mileage out of what Buck was doing in Dallas on a certain day in November 1963.

I just finished a months long romp through this show and it just ended. Was it cancelled? Did Brittney Murphy’s death cause it to end? Hank and Kahn building a super grill was such a weird way to go out.

I thought the episode a few before this that ended with Bobby and Hank grilling burgers for everyone was the last episode with how it ended - everyone brought together and then panning over Arlen.

That was the series finale. The super grill episode was one of 4 unaired eps that only reached syndication on adult swim a couple years after the series ended

I have a hard time articulating exactly what it is about later seasons that feels so "off" to me. It's not like the earlier seasons weren't bouncing from weird gimmick to weird gimmick.

Bobby gets weirdly into rose gardening? Sure. Bobby falls in with some witch LARPers? All day. Renaissance fair episode where Peggy is a knight and beats up Alan Rickman? Best episode.

Is it a focus on different characters? Did the writing get lazier? Are the plots worse? I can't actually remember the later seasons well enough to recall them even when looking at an episode guide.

I always thought it was the flanderization. The show really worked hard for most of its run to keep these zany characters kind of realistic, and have other human qualities to balance the specific character quirk. The last couple seasons had numerous episodes where the writers seemed to have forgotten the characters were more than one dimensional buffoons.
