family guy is equally as terrible. its just 30 min of complete nonsense. half the jokes carry on for 30 seconds longer than they should. the writers for family guy have lost their touch.

King of the Hill is crap compared to family Guy. King of the Hill is simpley not funny. I only watch it when waiting for Family Guy to start.The Simpsons is way better, and so is South Park. This show has run it's course.

so much for animation domination

RIP King of the Hill - some of the best times back in the 90's, but the writing sure has gone down hill.

I think the south park episode summed up how family guy writes their episodes.

There is a huge difference between Fox only airing 3 or 4 episodes out of order of a new show over the span of 5 months making it impossible to grow a fanbase and cancelling it, versus finally putting down a mediocre cartoon after A DECADE of not funny. I respect those of you that like it, but I'd say Fox did their part in giving you your fill.

All Family Guy does is make random references to some event in order to show a 15 second clip of something that has nothing to do with the story. Each show is exactly the same. (As someone else said, South Park pretty much sums up the whole writing style of Family Guy)

King of the Hill had great/hilarious relationships between the characters and built the show around that. Hank and Bobby's relationship is always something that cracks me up. I'm just sorry to see it go.

maybe Fox will finally put out the F***ING REMAINING BOX SETS NOW. i can only assume demand will be even greater once the show is canceled.

i dont really get Fox's reasoning in the first place. they said years ago that demand wasnt high enough to warrant seasons 7+ on DVD yet it was apparently high enough to continue producing new seasons? how does that make sense.

Lots of hate for King of the Hill. I am sad that it won't be renewed, but I have enjoyed it for a long time and it has run it's course. I guess I didn't realize how many people just don't like it. They have developed some interesting and funny characters over the past decade. Here's to you Hank.

After being stationed in San Antonio TX and Amarillo TX, I could really appreciate the show (mainly after living in Amarillo) and loved the first few seasons but these last couple of years have been kinda weak.

About time, not watched it since the exact moment it "Jumped the Shark" ...

"Dances with Dogs"
Episode KH702
Original Airdate: 12/01/02

The exact moment it was over when they devoted an entire episode to Bobby dancing with Lady Bird the family dog.

This really sucks, king of the hill was a very entertaining show. RIP Hank. Family guy is not that bad of a show, I still enjoy KOTH alot better. But south park absolutely sucks. I used to love it, but man that was back in high school. I think I grew out of it or something.

i don't think so. fox has mishandled king of the hill for the last couple of years. but putting all that aside, what a comment to make. maybe we haven't had our fill yet. maybe we want to see more of king of the hill. is that so wrong? is that so hard to understand?

yea i know, Family Guy is funny, but not in the ingenious way KOTH is, South Park has become so stupid, they use to make episodes that somehow made sense but i guess they have become what they hate the most: Family Guy
