Other hicks want to watch a show about hicks and beside, who doesn't like propane.

Hey, great to know you have absolutely no taste in television

 

The show has nothing to do with hicks, the show is about a working class man, his wife, his son, his dumbass niece, his bastard father, his bimbo step mother & their wide assortment of neighbors and coworkers

 

Family Guy uses the same formula

 

So does The Simpsons, American Dad, The Honeymooners, Married With Children & so on & so forth

 

This is not a new concept

Not sure if it's #1, but it's Top 5 at least.

Also, it's better than anime.
This Saturday night, it's a heavyweight collision! Newly crowned UFC Heavyweight Champion Junior Dos Santos, fresh off of his 1st round knockout victory over Cain Velasquez on Fox, returns to the Octagon to battle submission specialist Frank Mir in an all heavyweight card! Cain attempts to bounce back from his devastating loss against Brazilian wrecking machine Antonio "Bigfoot" Silva! Plus, Jason "Mayhem" Miller returns on the FX Prelim show to battle CB Dolloway! The action starts 8pm on FX and 10pm on PPV! I mean, what the hell else would you watch?

I'll give you 259 reasons why they still air it. That's the number of episodes of it that there are. Bonus points for those being half hour episodes.

 

Because of that, they can run an hour of it every weeknight and not repeat an episode for almost six months. This creates a nice, reliable staple show for their schedule that doesn't suffer from quick burnout.

 

If they ran an hour of Aqua Teen or Robot Chicken episodes every night, they'd run out in six weeks, not months. That would lead to a much higher rate of burnout.

 

It's no coincidence that the shows that are staples on the schedule are the comedies with the greatest number of episodes. Other things rotate in and out, but King of the Hill, Family Guy, American Dad, Aqua Teen and Robot Chicken are always there.

Unlike the live-action garbage [as] is currently promoting....KOTH actually sells ads & brings in the bacon, like all Fox comedy. I watch it on occasion but its still popular, as you can see how its on all the time.

Maybe people that understand that it's lightly making fun of the "hicks" through the use of dialog and relatable characters? 


And I put quotes around the word hicks because they aren't hicks. They are blue collar. Yes. There is a big difference.


I live in Texas, tho I'm not from here.

 

Its very popular here. And I imagine pretty much in most other southern & western & prob. even midwestern states.....dunno about up north tho.

Idk about the rest of us up north but I know quite a few people who used to watch it,

and quite a few of those still watch reruns on [as].

It's not popular enough for fox, that's for sure,

but I think it'll be on [as] for quite a while...

KotH popularity is pretty much a regional thing. It's not really popular in the PNW, nor is it popular with Cali.
like i said, one day you will "know" all about god (and his wrath) anyway. but keep watching your animes.

What was wrong with his statement before?

 

They're promoting live-action quite a bit.

 

They're not promoting anime at all right now.

 

Now you're just trying too hard to troll anime fans.

HELPeR for the TOONAMI, Mobile Suit Gundam, Dragon Ball Z, Harvey Birdman and Perfect Hair Forever boards. Feel free to ask me anything on those topics.

Children's Hospital and Eagleheart aren't garbage.  I like KOTH a bit more, but both of those shows are good.
