"Perfect"

By coasterfreak14, Jul 10, 2010

Seriously, this was a very funny episode with witty jokes and great writing.

I don't understand why Bobby begins to just suddenly like football (or why it doesn't carry on in future episodes), but it was funny seeing how desperate Hank is to keep Bobby's love for football in tact. Like Dale said, he broke many rules to make Bobby like football.

I like how when Hank tried to make Nebraska lose by telling them some stupid play, and they end up winning! And then, the guys try to escape the stadium without being found out by the angry Texas fans.

Overall, this was a classic episode that I love. This is one of my favorite episodes!moreless

A great way to start out the season.

"Superb"

By aaron304142, Nov 19, 2007

The one thing I didn't like about this episode was that Bobby started to like football because he has also been the art kid who never wanted to be a jock. What would make the writers do that but other than that it was a great episode. The part where they got the seats up high reminded me of the time I went to a WVU VT game. My favorite part was when they had to get back to their car and everything. This was very good episode I can't remember how many times I watched this one on my DVR.moreless

it's a good episode and very funny. trying to get bobby to like football, go to a college rose bowl game, trapped in some former college stars VIP box seat, Hank deciding nebraskas winning play... a quick kick, they get a touchdown, trying to stay safe from angry football fans, peggy going crazy, and they are forced to drive all the way to nebraska... i love it classic. if you like this episode... your a smart person. if you don't... well watch it again and again. i thought this beat the simpsons season premiere but not really family guy"blue harvest" that was pretty hilariousmoreless

Trapped in a VIP Box!

"Perfect"

By GeorgeJobson, Sep 24, 2007

I'm not much of a fan of the series. But I'm giving the season opener of "King of the Hill" a 10 because I love this episode very much. Hanbk taches Bobby the values of Football, takes him to a college football game. Hank, bobby and the gang goes to the game and ends up at seats far from the field. Before they know it, they end up in the VIP section. Just like Homer,whose never been on a private Jet, Hank and gang has never been in a VIP section before. Then towards the end, crazy stuff happens. I can't reveal the end, for those wh want to see it in rerun. Also the HD TV issues and whatever Luanne can tell a HD TV from real life. A few seasons ago, I feel as if I had given up on the series. But with this episode, I had renew hope in the show.moreless
