Quotes (Dale Gribble)
Rarely in any form of media or literature does a character come along so well-defined by cowardice. Scooby and Shaggy, maybe Gilligan, But even rarer is one to have such great pearls of wisdom and insight.
And with that I give Quotes from Dale Gribble:
"That is the worst smelling feces I've ever smelled."
"If you want, I can teach you how to make a bomb out of a toilet paper roll and a stick of dynamite."
"They've got a super boffo Bachman-Turner Overdrive meets Deep Purple versus ELO kind of sound."
"Enacted in 1966, the Freedom of Information Act — or FOIA — gives any citizen the right to request access to federal agency records or information. It's what I used when I took on the IRS for disallowing my status as a tax-exempt church."
"If all you're goin' on is my confession, forget it, I'm simply not credible."
"Boil up some Mountain Dew; it's gonna be a long night."
"I'm gonna take your blood and replace it with my rabies infested blood and gain your knowledge of propane and propane accessories and take over the world!"
"Whatcha got under the foil, Mr. Party Pooper? Some party poop?"
"I killed eight gophers last year and a purebred Tennessee walking horse that was looking at me funny."
"That is the feces that is created when shame eats too much stupid!"

He is just awesome.
Haaaa! Don the maintenance guy here where i work speaks just like dale, i mean 80% of the time i dont know what hes saying all i understand is..."compresor" or "srew driver"
hey ^ do you mean boomhauer?
i know people who remind me of every single character on that show. mike judge nailed it perfectly. that new goode family show seems forced and temporary though. however "he done kicked a hole in your drum" made me laugh out loud in the episode i saw.
it seemed to me like instead of just making some great characters and a new show, they're just trying to do the total antithesis of King of the Hill and all of them just look like bad parodies.
Best Blog I've read here without a doubt!
Of all the animated Fox shows KOTH is the most original. Everything came from the Simpsons but KOTH is the only one that's in a league of it's own. The jokes are not crazy over the top vulgar and since 97 I think, with the popularity of South Park the Fox animated shows got progressivly vulgar. There was a time when on sunday nights you'd have a new, forgettible, animated show on Fox that didn't go past the pilot pretty regularly that was just over the top shock! Then Family Guy and the Simpsons start taking a cue from Peter and Stewie and the gang. King of the Hill didn't budge and to a degree maintained Hank Hill's traditional ethics. There were adult jokes but done in a manner of good taste. King of the Hill never refrenced Two Girls One Cup(like family guy) they pushed the envelope but never got filthy with it. There was always a moral too. Which even The Simpsons over the last few years dropped putting in their shows. Does Homer even love Marge and the kids anymore? In past shows he's neglected them but would make up for it in a heroic or self sacrificing, respectable way.(remember Springfeild Gorge for example?) Again,Hank and his crew never budged! And maintained their morality and didn't follow trends. It was funny and you learned a little something.
I'll miss King of the Hill when it's last show is over. Thanks for this blog,good job!
I think what sets King of the HIll apart is that it's humour is based in really good funny writing. Almost any other cartoon you see nowadays is just gag based, both in just having one or ongoing gags and with a "gag" factor in how gross they can be.
And it's one thnig to have a well-written show, but to have 13 years of great writing? That is something incredible!
oh man, i just heard another great one.
"All these plants are real and give off oxygen. Which I use throughout the day."
dancing at a fancy restaurant-
Dale: [Sniffs]
Dale: You smell nice.
Nancy: Why thank you.
Nancy: [Sniffs]
Nancy: I like you tie.
"Count Dracula has thousands of coffins. They say he sleeps in a different coffin every night. I don't know if that true, it's just what I heard."
*Dips fingers in Ladybird's water bowl.*
"It's still wet. We have time."
*Dips fingers in Ladybird's water bowl.*

I love that episode.
So it turns out that Boomhauer was a Texas Ranger all along.
although, I have my suspicions. He may have just had a fake badge to score with chicks.
