    Boomhauer singing "Blue Moon of Kentucky."

    Kahn: "Bobby Hillbilly is marrying hillbilly cousin!"

    John Redcorn building Indian casino for "Big Mountain Fudge Cake."

    That hands down my favorite B&B episode of alltime. Nothing ever came close.

    I loved the season finalie of KOTH.

    The series was great, but I missed out on a lot over the past few seasons. Since Adult Swim picked it up I've been catching up. Even if I'm working late. Dr. J will pause it on the DVR until I get home.

    The soccer episode was great. Will Ferrell voiced the soccer coach. Hank's old high school football coach chased the players in his car and believed a salt tablet was the answer to everything.

    Love the soccer episode.

    I also loved many of the Bill episodes.

    Loved the finale -- sweet and simple. I think the whole focus was on Hank and Bobby finally coming together and that is where the meat judging came in.
    Finding out Boomhauer was a ranger was also a great touch.
    As far as Dale "finding out" about John Redcorn, this was set up the last few seasons after Nancy finally dumped the Injun. There were several points where Dale almost hints to the fact that he knows, but just won't ever admit it out loud to anyone. Kind of like he just wants it to stay buried and be at peace.

    My favorite episodes were any with Fatherton Fuels as a key enemy. I still to this day sometimes hollar "FATHERTON!" like Hank instead of the unsavory 4-letter words when I get mad at something when the kids are around.
    Also loved the episode when Cotton first met Kahn and they were all worried he would want to kill him cause he was a Jap. Cotton looks him up and down and says, "Mr. Kahn is clrealy Laotian."

    Yeah, I guess it was a bonding thing for Hank and Bobby.

    I'm going to miss this show. Damn it.

    One reason KOTH stayed on as long as it did was there were so many extra episodes produced, Fox essentially kept the show on long enough to show those next several seasons (I think they were 2-3 seasons ahead), because it was cheap, although Fox buried KOTH in a bad time slot.

    Sunday is a bad time slot? Hell it was perfect for post-football Sundays;

    7:30 Sunday is a bad slot. If it were moved back an hour, the ratings would be much higher.

    And whenever football ran long, it wasn't The Simpsons, Family Guy or American Dad that got pre-empted. It was always KOTH.

    This is an absolutely perfect summation of the Animation Domination ads.

    As others have said, you never knew what time the show was going to be on, it was always the first casualty when a football game ran over and there was never any promotion.

    It was every bit as funny as The Simpsons or Family Guy.
