CULTURAL CONFLICT AND COUNTRY CLUB CHAOS ON AN ALL-NEW “KING OF THE HILL” SUNDAY, DECEMBER 9, ON FOX

Kahn and Minh finally decide to ditch their hillbilly neighbors after Dale runs into their rose bushes with a homemade go-cart. The Souphanousinphones seek refuge at Nine Rivers, an upscale country club to which they were denied membership three times. Desperate to join, Kanh convinces Minh to befriend Dale and the rest of the Arlen Gun Club members so Minh can join the Nine Rivers skeet-shooting team. Kahn keeps his eyes on the prize while Minh begins to understand and accept the ways of her hillbilly neighbors. When Minh ditches the Arlen Gun Club to join the Nine Rivers team, Dale seeks revenge at the Tri-Club Skeet Classic. Meanwhile, the Hill Family go on a hunt for the garbage-can bandit in “The Minh Who Knew Too Much” episode of KING OF THE HILL airing Sunday, Dec. 9 (8:30-9:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX. (KH-1118) (TV-PG; L, V ) CC It seems like it's been a while since we've had a Kahn plot. Hope it's good.

Those two always crack me up whenever they're the focus of an episode.

"How's your calligraphy?"

"....Unacceptable."

Always enjoy when shows show a little light for 3rd-string characters. Most of it was background noise for me, but I laughed a few times at the clever writing and realistic dialog. The B-story was a bit more entertaining for me, but I knew exactly who it was when Bobby found the Q-tips in the jelly jar.

I really enjoyed this episode- they nicely tied up a "somewhat" important loose end for the Khans.

They're finally happy- yet they're still somewhat connected with the "hillbillies".

I LOVE Khan and Minh now- they're hilarious. And Minh gained some serious respect in my book. :)

I love Lucky- I REALLY do :D

Minh hasn't received any character development since she was introduced; she's always been the female version of Kahn. I don't think there's ever been a Minh-centered episode, and this was a good first outing. Getting inside her head made her more three-dimensional.

Now I wish they'd develop a certain other, smaller Souphanousinphone more.

This was new. Danggit. I was on cruise controll all night because the Simpsons, Family Guy and American Dad were all reruns. I just thought they'd save this when the new Simpsons episodes start (I thought they were done up to a certain point before the Strike happened, unlike Family Guy).

I love how the two snooty asians that Kahn always suck up to sound like a male and female George Takei.

So, is Nine Rivers a gated community or a country club?

Anyway, awesome episode. I love it when characters realise people they thought were stupid, are actually nice people.

I wonder if Minh will still be part of Dale's Gun Club?

Country club. It's more that if they get accepted there they can finally hang out with "their people" all the time. nine rivers is in the KOTH Universe the only all Asian Country Club in that part of Texas.
