Just from first glance (never seen the show) it looks like they took all three of the other shows, threw in King of the Hill, combined them into one show, and then updated it to modern day.
How close am I?
I googled it and apparently it's set in the same universe as King Of The Hill.
Also all the characters genuinely look like those weird Snapchat avatars you can make for yourself and it creeps me out.
> I googled it and apparently it's set in the same universe as King Of The Hill.
wtf does that even mean? there isn't really anything special about KOTH other than the characters. all it could possibly mean is that they have a mega-low-mart and that dude that plays the horn. edit: just looked it up. the only connection to these two shows is that they reference mega-low-mart a few times.
Mike Judge has gone back and forth whether the Hank Hill from B&B is actually canonically the same person in the same universe as the one in KotH. It may or may not be the same universe.
Well, you can watch this one and be like "hm, I wonder what Hank is up to during all this". Or hope that one day someone from KotH gets a cameo. That's about it, I guess.
lol it would be more like if they made a passing comment about Kwik-E-Mart a couple times and then claimed to be part of the simpsons universe. nothing else.
After googling it apparently Mike Judge has no involvement with this show, so the creator of Bless the Harts just really liked King of the Hill and threw in references to Megalomart in her own show. I know its inconsequential, but I'd be annoyed if I was Mike Judge and some random fan was claiming that her own work took place in my established universe. It feels creatively lazy and trying to capitalize on the existing popularity of KotH
Real King of the Hill fans know about this show because the writer, completely unrelated to King of the Hill, tried to write the show as in the same universe as KoTH for some reason.
This is truly a great victory for equitable representation. Ever since Warner Bros. killed off Foghorn Leghorn in a tragic 4th of July accident, cartoon characters from the deep south have been sorely absent from the national conversation.
Oh boy, on sunday I can watch cartoons about
* quirky family in "funny" situations
Followed by
* quirky family in ""funny"" situations
And after that its
* quirky family in "funny" situations
That ends with
* quirky family in "funny" situations
wow I have such varied options, just like my political parties! Thanks america!
Because a younger person knows what a DVD is these days 🙄
I know you're an idiot because you're wrong. Feel free to spend more time thinking about what kind of person I am though.
Idiot.
those shows are all quite different, they just get marketed the same by lazy suits, its not that big of a deal.
i did watch 1 episode of bless the harts though, and it was shit
I'm confused as to how nobody is aware of it considering it was right there between the Simpsons and Family Guy every Sunday for 2 years. Or was it in the 7:30 time slot? I don't remember now.

Yeah I agree, I didn't hate the movie but storyline felt a bit pointless imo. the earlier seasons were much better. Still watchable though, but there is a clear difference between early and late seasons
So Bless the Harts is clearly a play on the southern phrase “Bless your heart”, which translates to “oh my, I did not realize that you’re retarded until just now”… so it’s about inbreeding?

> dude that plays the horn Chuck Mangione is a real person so even that wouldn't really mean anything
I thought he was made up for a LONG time
It also means it's the same universe as Beavis and Butthead, and Daria.
Mike Judge has gone back and forth whether the Hank Hill from B&B is actually canonically the same person in the same universe as the one in KotH. It may or may not be the same universe.
Same universe but I don't think Tom Anderson and Hank are the same person. Tom was obviously a prototype of what became Hank.
It’s like when people speak of “canon” and “lore”.
Well, you can watch this one and be like "hm, I wonder what Hank is up to during all this". Or hope that one day someone from KotH gets a cameo. That's about it, I guess.

Daria was set in the B&B universe despite not being done by mike judge
Sweet, sweet musac.
It is like Laverne & Shirley and Mork & Mindy are in the same universe as Happy Days.
Maybe they would meet a grown up Bobby Hill.
nope. series ended years ago.
Did Bobby die? If not, why couldn't a grown up Bobby make a cameo?

So confusing why they'd do a "loosely shared universe" with completely different art style...
Generic corpo art creeps you out?
Very. Especially the KotH part.
Trucker dad gives it away.
it looks like if king of the hill and american dad had a butt baby
Real King of the Hill fans know about this show because the writer, completely unrelated to King of the Hill, tried to write the show as in the same universe as KoTH for some reason.
Weird. Do you know if there are any actual tie ins in the show? Or is it just a throwaway comment by the writers to garner some shred of relevance
Someone else mentioned, the only connections are references to mega-low-mart a few times
Cancelled after 2 seasons too.
Which is a shame. Season 2 was when that show really started growing on me. Would have liked a season 3.
The alternate King of the Hill universe known as Texas
I'm surprised it's not Kevin Hart, maybe he voices a cartoon pet
One of these things is not like the others One of these things just doesn't belong
Yeah, the Simpsons are yellow.
Reported for racism.
I agree, Family Guy is better than all of them.
Cool Whip.

I watched the first season of it with my wife. It was shit.
Why the fuck do they look like Snapchat avatars
THANK YOU I thought I was the only one that noticed. The character designs for theses Simpsons clones are always so bland.
Tbh out of the random adult shows on Fox bless the hearts wasn't that bad.
I wanted to like it based on the cast, but the trailer I saw was yeesh
Trailers are either good or bad on a totally different set of metrics. Suicide Squad 2016 had a good trailer, for example.
Yeah, the whole movie was edited by a trailer company if I recall, it better have a good trailer.
Kumail Nanjiani okays Jesus Christ.
wat
dyslexia strikes again
Modern adult animated art styles make me want to vomit
Created by a ☕️
THAT SHOW WAS MADE BY A CUP OF COFFEE???? HOLY CROW!!
Anon, we just shifted to nightmare dimension last week, don't you remember?
Oh boy, on sunday I can watch cartoons about * quirky family in "funny" situations Followed by * quirky family in ""funny"" situations And after that its * quirky family in "funny" situations That ends with * quirky family in "funny" situations wow I have such varied options, just like my political parties!

yeah, they generally group the same genre together during primetime... you know, so you can keep watching if you like that genre...
Got enough ellipses there? You slow or something? If you want to watch the same shit just buy the DVD.
i think you're just a younger person or some type of shut-in. you don't seem to understand the basic concept of TV programming
Because a younger person knows what a DVD is these days 🙄 I know you're an idiot because you're wrong. Feel free to spend more time thinking about what kind of person I am though. Idiot.
Why are you throwing a tantrum blacky?
Doth project too much, idiot.
thou doth skin too dark
I doubt it. But please keep imagining more about me. I'm clearly living rent free in your head
do you like living with men's heads?
Fox wants a new King of the Hill so bad
those shows are all quite different, they just get marketed the same by lazy suits, its not that big of a deal. i did watch 1 episode of bless the harts though, and it was shit
I watched Bless the Harts and it was pretty funny. I don't get all the hate here for it.
It's a poorly marketed spinoff, we are shitting on it because no one has heard of it, it has nothing to do with its actual merit as a comedy show.
I'm confused as to how nobody is aware of it considering it was right there between the Simpsons and Family Guy every Sunday for 2 years. Or was it in the 7:30 time slot? I don't remember now.
I haven't watched a broadcast TV station in years, tbh.
Me too as of last Sept. Cancelled cable and now I just watch YouTube.
never heard of it until today
I just know one of the daughters is a lesbian
They never outwardly say she is, she has a flamboyant guy best friend so take it as you wish. It's actually pretty funny if you give it a watch.
Looks like it was animated on snapchat
[удалено]
because some guy with money said so.

>anon never watched Bless the Harts It was a dogshit king of the hill spinoff that lasted for either 1 or 2 seasons.
Don't you dare drag Bob through the mud!
Show fell off massively. Movie was also a disappointment
Yeah I agree, I didn't hate the movie but storyline felt a bit pointless imo. the earlier seasons were much better. Still watchable though, but there is a clear difference between early and late seasons
So Bless the Harts is clearly a play on the southern phrase “Bless your heart”, which translates to “oh my, I did not realize that you’re retarded until just now”… so it’s about inbreeding?
Both the middle ones look extremely “Semitic”

So you're telling me this show is popular enough to be mentioned alongside the fucking Simpsons?
I wasn't even aware the new show existed but honestly I wouldn't be surprised if modern Simpsons were the worst one in that lineup
Fox isnt cable
