King of the Hill has always been underrated, out shined by The Simpsons and Family Guy. Now its gone. http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/hr/content_display/television/news/e3ic9655ee4528b1af429b8317f09479a6a

I liked it around 10 years ago. But truth is there are better shows. Like futurama and south park. stiff competition.

Same. I can't believe it managed to survive 12 seasons.

King of the Hill was a very dependable, constantly "mildly above average" show. Not pleased that it's cancelled but I can't say I'll miss it significantly.

They should have nuked that show ages ago. It was so incredibly boring to watch. I'd probably have to buy a box of nails and drive all of them into my skull before someone were to have me sit down and watch another episode of King of the Hill....

^^^That's a bit extreme, but you get the idea^^^

Now that it's gone, Fox can replace it with another one of their own one-word-title shows.

How much you wanna bet that Fox decided to cancel King of the Hill to make room for The Cleveland Show? It's one thing to cancel a show, but to do it in favor for a spin-off show whose main character wasn't interesting to begin with does kinda blow.

I agree with you 150 %

They cancel king of the hill which is still really funny, but they don't cancel the simpsons or family guy!?!!
Family guy and Simpsons used to be funny, but now every episode is horrible.

I hate family guy so much, I can't even stand to watch a minute of it.
Simposons is horrible now too, they have completely ran out of ideas.

King of the hill was still funny, I still enjoyed the new episodes.

I guess it's not just fox news that is horrible, it's the whole company!!

I thought it was cancelled a couple years ago? I guess not. It deserved to be outshone by the Simpsons and Family Guy. And Futurama tops them all.

Simpsons is as big as can be still, I would say. They even made a freakin' theme park ride based on the show earlier this year, and you can also look at the movie. New fanfare comes in with those.

Simpsons used to be great, thats why people still like it in my opinion, because they watch reruns.
The newer episodes of Simpsons in my opinion are not good at all, I really dislike them.
I know many other gamespotters agree with me, because I've seen tons of people here say that.

You know the saying, it's better to burn out then fade away.
King of the hill has burnt out, and family guy and simpsons has faded away in my opinion.

King of the Hill was one of the only shows left on Fox that wasn't incredibly stupid.

The Simpson's lost its appeal after the tenth season (I always say that it died around the time Maude died.)
Family Guy was funny for the first season, but now it's gone from funny random humour to nonsensical poop jokes.
American Dad is a bit better than Family Guy, but oh man do they need to learn when to stop a joke. Its horrible.

King of the Hill retains the actual maturity without going down the route of becoming silly and again nonsensical. Its basically what the Simpson's was around the first couple of seasons.

On top of cancelling that, they've also just renewed American Dad for a new season.

I tried to watch King of the Hill before and it was almost bad enough to send me into depression. I think I was able to stomach about 5 minutes of it.

I tried and I tried to like that show. Maybe I'm just not clever enough to get all the cutesy cultural references, and the references to the gritty reality of the American south, but I just didn't get the show.

King of the Hill was way underated, people just cant seem to appreciate its humour, sure it was no simpsons (before 00) but it was still unique and funny and a joy to watch, way better then Family Guy, the new Simpsons and American Dad, oh well, it had a decent enough run I guess.

FOX declared their Sunday nite lineup as Animation Domination. This ad campaign would have been better sutied for about 5-6 years ago.

King of the Hill ran out of ideas a while ago, but still pull out a few decent shows every now and then (if you like mild simple humor).

Simpsons is UNWATCHABLE anymore which is a shame because its the franchise of tv.

Family Guy seems to taken to South Parks parody of it as its become more and more like a random manatee tank show dispenser..

American Dad is underrated imo, its an actual show with an actual plot

GIVE the Simpsons thier grand finale and let it retire (not cancel).... before the 'Domination' becomes more pathetic.

The real KING of animation is South Park followed closely by Adult Swim.

It was good about 5 years back. Now it's just lacklustre. Like Family Guy.. Which I think will be gone soon.

I could never get into that show. Was rather boring.
