I quite like KoTH; it's humor basically derives from real - life situations.

This puts a rather harsh cap on what the scriptwriters can do, but imo it's done very well. You do need to be in the mood for it though. If you're looking for a rambunctuous, hard - hitting lollocoaster it's definitely not that.

It isn't hate worthy, it is just boring... It tries so hard to do that sort of awkward humor and just sort of doesn't do anything. It really does just amount to a few guys standing around drinking.
KotH can be brutally funny at times. I think it's one of those "you have to have lived there (or somewhere like there)" to fully appreciate the humor.

Just like Talladega Nights -- funny film to most people. Absolutely sublime comedy if you grew up in rural North Carolina, steeped in NACSAR culture.

Holy crap, there's snow everywhere, tons of snow. Yesterday, I could see some patches of grass (dead yellow grass), and today, I'm buried under snow. What the fuck, I thought winter was nearly finished.

Belgium seems to have pretty good comedy shows of it own, all we really get for suplement is the simpsons and south park, and not even that often.

Knowing Belgium, everyone will vote for themselves out of mistrust for anyone else, and some kind of weird direct democracy coalition will need to be formed from 11 million or so individuals.

Note: I despise everything about that show

Which one?  King of the Hill or Adventure Time?
King of the Hill. I don't know enough about Adventure Time to do much of anything but be vaguely annoyed when my friends bring it up.

That's only because you've never met real-life Boomhauers. Character comedies are so much better when you actually recognize those characters in your monkeysphere.

That's the thing. I'm related to some of those people. They do nothing but piss me off, and I'd rather not be reminded that I'm related to them. My father is an amateur racecar mechanic, for fuck's sake.

One of my new coworkers is a female Boomhauer.  Incredibly hickish manner of speaking and vocabulary completely devoid of anything the least bit technical sounding, usually to be replaced with words like "doohicky".  Her first day, she kept asking what the country code for Tokyo is, and we had to explain to her 3 separate times that Tokyo is not a country... and once again the next day.

That's not a Boomhauer, that's a Bill. Boomhauer is actually subtly intelligent, it's just the speech pattern....I KNOW people that sound like that. Eastern North Carolina has a certain flatlander accent that is damn near incomprehensible and would seem to consist of high-speed mumbling while gargling marbles.

And we all know a Dale (i.e. dumbass conspiracy nut).

An in-between, then.  Because she has the speech pattern.  It's not usually quite as fast and incomprehensible, but when she gets flustered, it's really close.  I can't say I've met a straight Boomhauer before.  I've met plenty of people who were 60-70% of the way there.
