King of the Hill

Won't You Pimai Neighbor? - S4-E18

Continuity mistake: When Hank looks at his invitation he reads the writing in it. The next shot you can see the writing on the card as if Hank had turned the card over pointing towards the ground. However there was not enough time between shots for him to have turned it around.

The Wedding of Bobby Hill - S3-E14

Continuity mistake: As Bobby visits Connie and is at her window he lays his hands on the window sill. The next shot they are back by his side and they keep alternating back and forth even though he never moves them between shots. At the end of the scene Connie shuts the window smoothly even though his fingers were still there in the shot before.

Ho Yeah! - S5-E13

Continuity mistake: As Cotton is trying to guess where he has seen Tammy before, you can see Tammy has one wristband on her right hand. In the next shot she now has two wristbands on that hand. After this shot it returns back to just one wristband.

Not in My Back Hoe - S4-E8

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Bill is trying to open the beer can with the back hoe, he rips up the pavement with it. As Hank sees the mess he gets in the machine and pushes the pavement back that Bill tore up. When Boomhauer comes along you can see his foot falls into the hole and gets stuck even though Hank pushed it back. Also if you look the soil Bill dug up has disappeared when Boomhauer comes along.

Old Glory - S4-E11

Continuity mistake: When Bobby & Peggy are about to steal Bill's flag, the truck drives right up against the flagpole. In the next shot Bobby is standing next to the flagpole and there are a few changes. The first is that the truck has a bit of space between the back of it and the pole, whilst the first shot it had no space in between (as it hits the pole). The other change is where the rope is knotted on the pole. In the first shot it was on the opposite side of where Peggy was standing. The next shot she has not moved but the rope is right next to Peggy facing her.

The Unbearable Blindness of Laying - S2-E11

Continuity mistake: When the family leaves for the basketball game Peggy brings the wrong foam finger (not the basketball one) so Hank turns around to get it. It shows him walking into the house, finding it but also finding what he thinks is laundry all over the floor. He also hears what he thinks is innocently the washer or dryer running. He follows the noise towards the kitchen, slowly opens the door to find his mother and Gary presumably having sex on the kitchen table. The problem here is that the kitchen has no door. From inside the kitchen in any episode it is never visible. I checked and further into this episode while opening presents it shows an entrance to the kitchen from the living area where Hank entered and there is no door on that side either. In truth it is an open doorway.

Yankee Hankee - S5-E10

Character mistake: Hank says that his parents haven't spoken in four years. However, Cotton and Tilly were both at the Hill home in the episode "Nine Pretty Darn Angry Men" (Season 3). Cotton bullied Tilly on that occasion. And four years has not passed in between those episodes, or else Bobby would be a high school student.

Show generally

Continuity mistake: In earlier episodes, Luanne is very knowledgeable about cars. This is shown in "Shins of the Father" (Season 1). In "Jumpin' Crack Bass" (Season 2), she does repairs on Hank's truck - and Hank is known to be protective of his truck. As the series goes on, she becomes a stereotypical "dumb" promiscuous type, with no apparent expertise in cars.

Born Again on the Fourth of July - S13-E14

Factual error: When Bobby and Lucky first walk into the church service that is taking place inside the karate studio, the pastor is calling everyone a sinner, and proceeds to point to a picture of Bruce Lee behind him and says he was a big sinner who repented and knew that the unrighteous would not inherit the kingdom of Heaven. Bruce Lee was an atheist.

De-Kahnstructing Henry - S3-E13

Continuity mistake: At Strickland Propane, when Kahn hands Hank his propane tank, it is set down on the counter right beside the bell. However, in the shots facing Kahn, the bell is directly in front of him, but the propane tank is nowhere to be seen. Additionally, during this scene note the difference in the ceiling height in relation to the wall boards and the doorway behind Hank. (00:02:20)

Hank and the Great Glass Elevator - S5-E11

Continuity mistake: After the banquet dinner where Bill sees Lenore, she comes to visit him at home. They are sitting down on the couch and when she's talking she has her hand on his chest and you can see there is a pen in Bill's right shirt pocket. Between shots she talks about stealing Bill away at the prom and in one quick shot the pen disappears and the next shot it returns. Also look at Lenore's hand in this scene. It goes from being next to his chest, away from his chest back to being on his chest.

Pigmalion - S7-E9

Continuity mistake: The door to the slaughterhouse (which Luanne blocks with the barrel) changes configurations between shots. When Trip is trying to get in, the exterior is blue with a doorknob. After Peggy busts in, it is white with a pushbar across the middle. The interior is white with a pushbar in all shots.

Death Buys a Timeshare - S9-E3

Plot hole: During a heatwave, the Hills are dying from the heat and even look for a pool to swim in to cool off.This makes no sense, they live in a ranch house which would have central air or at worst some window air conditioners.

Square-Footed Monster - S13-E3

Continuity mistake: While Hank is at Arlen City Hall, asking about forms for a legal petition, the first clerk tells him that Hornsby has been dead for 11 years. The filled directory board is visible on the wall. However, when the second clerk says Hornsby has been dead for 18 years, the directory board is entirely blank.

Square-Footed Monster - S13-E3

Continuity mistake: When the McMansion starts breaking apart, endangering the other homes, Dale's watch is on his left wrist, as usual. But when the neighbors arm themselves with tools, Dale's watch is on his right wrist (it's not a flipped shot), then it returns to his left in the next shot.

Square-Footed Monster - S13-E3

Other mistake: During the storm, after Peggy uses the axe on the McMansion support beam, when it cuts to Luanne running with the tow chain attached to Lucky's pickup truck, note the other end of the chain in mid-air is missing. The animation is incomplete at the left side of the screen.

Hank: Calm down, Boomhauer! I can't understand a word you're saying.
