    I really enjoy king of the hill, but my god, some of the episodes are just so, so bad. Like, the powderpuff football game, which was basically "misogyny: the episode". Or that time Peggy is singlehandedly responsible for gentrifying a neighborhood because she sold some houses to hipsters. Or that time Hank starts working at that food co-op, where apparently no one had ever figured out how to rotate stock before Hank showed them how. Or that time Peggy makes friends with a trans woman? Drag queen? The show is very unclear and much of the conflict of the episode centers around the issue that Peggy is feeling confident and feminine about her feet for the first time, but she's hanging out with "men", so is she really finding femininity?

    So yeah, amusing show with some stand out bits, but so much of it is so, so bad. And I really wish Hank (and Peggy) would realize they're being asses before the last minute or so of the episode. They never learn, they just do the same assholeish behavior every episode and then at the end they're always like, oh wait, I'm an ass. And after like 2 seasons of that I was already over it.
