King of the Hill (1997–2010)
10/10
"An all Texas SuperBowl...Thy will be done"

King of the Hill is, in my opinion, the funniest cartoon ever created. It's absolutely hilarious. And one of the most subtle programs I've ever seen. There aren't any "jokes" in this show.

King of the Hill finds humor in the mundane, normal, everyday situations that all of us go through, that every person can relate to. What makes it funny, is the characters. Every character is unique and distinct and insanely hilarious.

A lot of people don't "get" the show, and I'm guessing its because they don't "get" the characters. Not necessarily "get"...but to find the show funny, you have to know the characters, inside and out. The ordinary situations that the plots are built around are made funny because of the characters personalities.

It's been compared to the Simpsons, because they have similar premises, but this show is nothing like the Simpsons, when all is said and done. It's much more subtle (not saying the Simpsons isn't great or isn't funny) and, to me, much more relate-able.

This show isn't for everybody, but anybody who is interested in getting to know a lovely cast of characters, and is prepared to laugh at them, I completely recommend.
