People who don’t understand the comedy of King of the Hill are those who think Family Guy is actually humorous.

I think Fox8 are actually running Season 11 episodes on Sunday nights now, so hopefully 7 will keep in front by 3-4 episodes.

Oops – my mistake with Futurama, wrote the wrong show there. Point still the same.

Even if you could series link these shows on 7 and 9, chances are you’d miss up to 10 mintutes of the start as nothing ever starts on time that late at night. You’d have to set your IQ to start 10 mins early.

i love king of the hill but i’m disappointed it’s pushing beauty/geek off the schedule – the current season has been the guiltiest of pleasures

I can’t stand the animation style of this series, its really ugly. I’m with mikey that it wasn’t too entertaining either, it reminded me of tryhard MTV cartoons like Beavis and Butthead and Daria more than the witty cartoon it tried to be.

Too little, too late Seven. Not to mention a timeslot not worth a damn. Their treatment of King of the Hill over the years has been beyond pathetic. Clearly it’s not doing them any favours. Just sell it to TEN already!!!! Jeez…

@ Jed
King of the Hill is currently in it’s 13th season, and there are still enough production order episodes left to air a 14th (and final) season for the 2009-10 season. Fox has had a history of renewing the series at the last minute, though I think this may be the end for KotH.

I like the show but haven’t seen it in years, I guess putting it at midnight that will continue, oh well there is always Fox8…

Didn’t know this show was still going. How did it make it to 11 seasons in the first place. It isn’t that great.

Futurama is owned by Ten now.

I have no doubt in my mind that 7 could have a strong animation/comedy night.

Family Guy, American Dad, 30 Rock and if you can call them comedy Scrubs and Earl.

@ Andrew B

I aggree, except for the fact that 7 doesn’t have Futurama anymore, Ten does.

Why don’t 7 put all these half hour shows into the one night – King of Hill, Scrubs, Earl, Futurama, etc rather than being randomly scattered around their schedule. It would actually make more sense to have King of Hill on with Futurama, Earl with scrubs, or 30 Rock, etc…
