Hey, it's the 12th episode of the 12th season! Plot from fox.com: See you at 8:30/7:30c!
 
They've let every other character go at least a little character growth since the start of the show. Let Dale find out the truth already, and let him love Joseph despite who his real father is.
 
This was great, easily my favorite episode of season 12 so far. So many twists and turns to the ever-complicated Dale/Nancy/John Redcorn/and now Charlene relationship. The scene when Nancy and Redcorn fight with each other but Nancy says "You're sure DALE would never cheat on me?!", and Dale says "...I don't know why John Redcorn would have that kind of information..." was classic.

The scene when Kate is lying on top of Joseph and Peggy freaks out was also a riot. "Bobby! Why aren't you outside with your friends?!"
 
Bill ended up okay. He seemed to have gotten tired of the children.
Ya know, I like King of the Hill, it's the most down to earth cartoon I've ever seen. There's never dull episode. They're mostly dull to begin with, but it's still a nice show.
 
Damn Bill showed to be a pretty good parent in this episode. Another good relationship for Bill that was ruined. Also creepy was Joseph and Kate whose relationship was bordering on incest because they did not know they were brother and sister and they were connecting in a way that could develop into boyfriend girlfriend.

Yet I liked this episode. I love how the show have woven this complex conspericy to keep dale from realizing that Nancy sleep with John Redcorn. One which the whole cast is in on and actually works smoothly.

I am happy that Bill took the whole thing so good. However I really want him to end up with the girl, just once.
 
After a bunch of mildly preachy, yet still entertaining episodes, we finally get to see more of the terrible effects of John Redcorn and Nacy Hicks's affair. I really like how they painted him as someone who cheats on someone cheating on him. And this was the first time in a while I laughed at Joeseph's creepy awkwardness. The fact the girl shared the exact same sketchy tendancies. That must be on the male gene, that creepiness.

Anyway, I will say that it's always depressing that Bill always winds up screwing up, or getting screwed up himself in relationships. This one did seem like it could have worked, though. At least he wasn't a "Pig" or something to get someone jealous this time. I like seeing his sweet side outshining his dumb side.

And the real golden line in the show was John's, "It's hard to watch an idiot raise your child" line. (or did he agree with Dale saying that. I forget).
 
5/5 episode

Dale's reply to John Redcorn's "Candy?" being "Sorry, I don't have any" had me laughing for a few minutes. Solid episode that just feels like a slight change of pace from the previous episodes this season. I assume Charlene living with Redcorn will affect his affair with Nancy, but who knows.
 
No, that was Dale's line, and John Redcorn just agreed with it.

I was just giggling and grinning through the entire thing. I could hardly leave my seat to get dinner, I was just that excited. Normally, whenever an episode involving Bill getting 15 minutes of glory just to be taken away from him by the end comes around, I always come with a grain of salt, but this ep really surprised me by how excellent it was, and that it was actually Bill who ended his glory on his own at the end.

I don't really think Dale should ever learn the truth about Joseph, though. It just wouldn't work out for me.

Well, overall, behind maybe "Death Picks Cotton", this was the best ep of the season, which is really saying something. I really hope this isn't the show's last season. It's just too good to end, but let The Simpsons and Family Guy continue to rot.
