Hank Hill is legit one of the funniest dads in TV history. I don't think he told an actual joke the entire 13 seasons but kept me laughing.

[@Inthatgoodway]

Bwwwaaaaaaahhhh

[@SleepyFawn]

Hank is one of those rare characters where every single thing he does and says entertains me. It's his mannerisms and routines, I think, along with the voice lol

@@DoveLadynah hank doesn’t seem like he’d be sharing beers with just anybody. You’ll have to be his type of guy for that. It would also have to be a guy because he wouldn’t be drinking with a lady, putting himself in a precarious situation isn’t what hank would do

[@joelglanton6531]

That's funny to hear you guys say that, I grew up in Southern Nevada and back in the day a lot of the old-timers would have an accent, I liken it to a Texas accent in many ways but it was it's own thing. Just like everywhere else in the southwest, there are so few families that have been here for that long that I haven't heard someone talk like that in forever, and if I did I would probably assume they were from the south.

In Texas we call those “Good Ol’ Boys”

[@Vindsvelle]

This probably isn't the case for the rest of the country (judging by Urban Dictionary, it's not), but at least in the Pacific Northwest I've only ever heard "Good Ol' Boy" used as a byword for racist, corrupt white dudes with local connections in the law enforcement, business, or political establishments of their small towns, *particularly* cops but also extending to everyone from high school football coaches to city clerks. Those kinds of good ol' boys look out for only two things: themselves, and other "good ol' boys", and if you're not one of them or their family members, you're f*ck3d.

[@TsuFox1]

​@@Vindsvellethats because anything inherently white has been deemed as racist. Especially somewhere like the northwest.

Evidently the voice is but he used that voice in Beavis and Butthead as well. I believe the character's name was Mr. Anderson.

My ex has a pretty friendly neighbor. He moved into his house and a week later and big tree branch was knocked 99% down from my ex's tree. Since my ex had only lived in apartments up to this point he didn't have any tools per se but the neighbor Rob came over with a saw and helped him cut up the tree and the wood has since been used in a fire pit.

Ok my name is Robert and of course my parents nicknamed me Bobby. I'm an 80's baby so these two men gave my classmates a lot of ammunition over the years between Howie Mandel's "Bobby's World" and Mike Judge's "King of the Hill", but I'm not hating. These shows provided me with countless childhood memories while growing up. The Monsters movie that Howie made with a young Fred Savage from "The Wonder Years" was also one of my favorites as a kid. A special thanks to both of these gentlemen. My childhood wouldn't have been the same without your work. Much respect 😊.

[@grecco_buckliano]

"Hank" is the same voice as Mt Anderson from Beavis and Butthead. My all time favorite line from Mike is in the Beavis & Buthead movie when Mr. Anderson hears a ruckus in his travel trailer and opens the door to find Beavis and Buthead doing what SOUNDS like jagging off. He say, "Hey! I downt wanna see thet!" Out of that whole movie, that line just stuck with me forever.

[@reloadpsi]

My favourite "Mike doing a voice" thing is when listening for an extended period of time makes you realise how close Butt-head is to his normal voice.

Hes always up by 5 with a cup of coffee, and him and his sons go fishing in the ol pontoon boat. He believes in the 2nd amendment, but he never sees the need to personally carry himself. Thats the hank hill stereotype.

[@freesoul7829]

Thanks for reminding that this can happen to anyone, not just older people. When I was naive and younger I almost fell for scammers three times until I stepped back, thought about it for a moment, got my phone out and looked up some informations realizing that it's a scam. It was many years ago when the informations where not out there so much and one of those scammers was not even having an accent and talked in a perfect and professional manner. So yes, be careful. This can happen to anyone. When it sounds too good to be true the most time it is not true.

[@james.randorff]

In addition to being a brilliant writer and voice actor, Mike Judge is also an excellent bass guitarist. I was playing with Dale Watson at a little Irish Pub in Austin, TX, back in 2001, when our drummer reached over and poked me with his stick, then pointed to a table near the front of the stage. Sitting there were Mike Judge and Quentin Tarantino. On the break, we invited Mike to come up and sit in to play a few old country standards. He did a great job!

Probably based off a couple of different people he ran into. His original story was that he and his brother went to some guys house to renew the newspaper and the guy kept arguing with them (in the Hank/Anderson voice) that they refuse to accept renewals until the old paperboy came back.

[@nicks1050]
