    There really is not much good to say about this show. The animation is terrible, the script is worse, and the characters unlikable. the only good thing about it, is that the characters are so poorly written that even when the show is trying to be touching, I can laugh at the characters

    King of the Hill may not peak until the second or third season, but this is a great first season. It takes a couple of episodes for the characters to develop, but once they do, its pretty hard to stop watching.

    Review On Season 1 Of King Of The Hill-
    1st Of All I Have To Say I Love King Of The Hill Alot.. But This Review Will Not Be 100% Perfect.. In Shows I Look For Great Voice Acting, And Great Plots.. King Of The Hill Has Both! The Characters Are Fine As Well.. There Is One Little Problem.. I Wish Luanne, & Cotten Would Be In The Show More, I Love Them!
    Overall This Is A Great 1st Season!

    This show has great humor. These situations feel real and the show is understandable. The characters are believable, especially Hank Hill, the uptight father of the Hill family.

    Funny at some points and great at others. but what king of the hill delivers is awesomeness.
    And it shows a man with a good heart and some wacky freiends.

    One of the most funny and entertaining TV shows ever! Adding the Everyday life of a middle-American family. Having a character that everyone can relate to. Bill, the depressed Army Barber. Dale, the paranoid freak. Boomhauer, the womanizer. And Hank, the everyday middle American. But those are just the main characters! There's someone for everyone to like and enjoy in this show.

    Season 1 of King of the Hill was a decent start for the series. It's not the best season, but they had to start somewhere, and it was a pretty strong start. It's a little weird compared to the later seasons, but still enjoyable.

The once-great kingdom, watched over by a fading steward, has never been in more desperate need of its king. But can Aragorn (Viggo Mortensen) answer the call of his heritage and become what he was born to be? In no small

    It totes a few smiles, but little to bowl you over, and it takes a spell getting used to.
