The Resume

    (January 12, 1997-May 6, 2010)
    FOX Network
    Created by Mike Judge and Greg Daniels
    Premise: Adventures of the Hill family of Arlen, Texas, and their quirky friends. In most episodes, Hank Hill, the patriarch, usually finds himself in a stressful situation caused by his friends or family's problems, but his simple reasoning and earnest personality invariably leads to a resolution

Why King of the Hill might be annoying:

    It is an acquired taste.
    Many jokes are so subtle, and can be missed unless you pay attention.
    Mike Judge lifted his voice of Tom Anderson from 'Beavis and Butt-Head' for Hank Hill.
    They employed Chuck Austen, who enraged fans and is quite unpopular for his writing in 'Uncanny X-Men' and 'Superman.'
    It is known to repeat premises from episodes.

Why King of the Hill might not be annoying:

    Mike Judge pitched the show to Fox, with a cartoon short of Hank, flanked by his friends and family.
    As with most cartoons, there is no time line, so episodes do not need to be watched in order.
    Brittany Murphy, Breckin Meyer and Kathy Najimy stayed with the show despite their growing movie careers.
    The characters are reminiscent of real people.
    Merchandising for the show is minimal.
    It tends to be non offensive in politics and religion.
    The 'bad guys' on the show get what they deserve by the end.
    It attracts big name guest stars.
    The show has been a consistent success for its entire time on the air.
