Certainly, it was hard to imagine at first that Mike Judge, of "Beavis and Butt-Head" fame, could produce a family cartoon, even a family cartoon that focused on a typical red-state family from Texas. Still, year-in and year-out, it survived.
It barely made it to this season however, crawling onto Fox's schedule. This is it, however. Tonight is the final episode, the "King of the Hill" series finale.
Although other unaired episodes will make it to DVD, the "King of the Hill" series finale combines two episodes, calling it, as the ads have shown, "The Boy Can't Help It." Anyone who's watched the show will know that Hank Hill has troubling dealing with Bobby, who's a sensitive young man with eccentric tendencies.
In the first 30 minutes of the "King of the Hill" series finale, therefore, Bobby has some older girls play a cruel prank on him. However, Bobby finally shows the spine that Hank doubted he had.
The final 30 minutes of the "King of the Hill" series finale, really the episode "To Sirloin with Love," Hank and Bobby finally bond over ... a love of beef. The ending brings Hank and Bobby together with the various neighbors who've surrounded them in Arlen. As is typical, it's somewhat tear-jerking.
Watch it if you dare.
