King of the Hill

Show generally

Continuity mistake: In several episodes, the color of Alamo Beer that Hank, Dale, Boomhauer, and Bill drink, changes color. In "Uh-Oh Canada" the beer is yellow, but in "Death of a Propane Salesman" when Hank pours the beer into a glass, it is brown.

A Beer Can Named Desire - S4-E6

Continuity mistake: Toward the end of the episode Don Meredith takes Hank to the Superdome to try throwing the football into the Alamo beer can. After Hank makes the throw they walk to the football rack and Don picks up one of the footballs from the rack. We can see the top shelf has two footballs with the laces on the ball not visible. As they leave we can see on the same angle, there are three balls on the top shelf with the laces visible on all three balls.

Hillennium - S4-E10

Continuity mistake: In the episode we see the door to the boiler room (where Peggy's computer is) the door opens outwards into the hallway. Later in the episode she comes in to the room to check on some of her printings she was doing overnight. In this scene she opens it inwards. This wouldn't be possible as the door has a knob meaning it wouldn't be a two-way door.

De-Kahnstructing Henry - S3-E13

Continuity mistake: During the scene where Hank is talking to Kahn in the restaurant bathroom you can see a black rubbish bin below the hand dryer next to the entrance of the bathroom. About halfway into the scene Kahn starts looking into the mirror and the garbage bin has disappeared. Throughout the rest of the scene the bin never reappears. (00:18:20)

Unfortunate Son - S6-E11

Continuity mistake: When Hank's trying to convince his dad to let the Vietnam vets join the VFW, the table behind him with the bowl of fruit and the vase of flowers on it disappears between shots. (00:12:45 - 00:13:15)

Chasing Bobby - S5-E9

Continuity mistake: In the scene where the mechanic is checking Hank's car, there is a guy in the car who is sitting on the right side with his hands on the wheel. The problem is the steering wheel is on the left side of the car. In the next shot the steering wheel and the guy return back to the left side of the truck.

Chasing Bobby - S5-E9

Continuity mistake: Whilst Hank is talking about the price of popcorn at the movies Bobby & Connie come up to Hank and there is a blue poster next to Bobby of a woman holding a gun. In the next shot you can see the blue poster is now next to Hank despite a red & orange poster next to Hank in the previous shot of him.

Chasing Bobby - S5-E9

Continuity mistake: When Hank & Peggy are discussing what film to see, Connie & Bobby were to the right of Peggy who is right next to the truck. In the next shot Hank & Peggy are getting in the truck and Bobby and Connie are already there. Yet we would have had to have seen them go behind or in front of Peggy to get into the truck.

Bill of Sales - S4-E17

Continuity mistake: When Peggy is insulting Bill to try and get him to sell Metalife products again, he has a beer in his left hand. In the next shot when he tries to convince Peggy to give him another chance the beer has disappeared even though he never put the beer down. They were outside on the front lawn so there was not enough time for him to hide it or place it somewhere else on his front lawn.

To Kill a Ladybird - S4-E9

Continuity mistake: When Bobby and Hank are in the pet store looking around, there are some red & white bags of dog food. Hank then asks the store clerk how much it costs to put a photo of Ladybird on a mug, and the color of the bags has changed. One of the bags is orange and white, whilst another is yellow and white.

Nancy's Boys - S4-E21

Continuity mistake: When Dale is talking about getting the silver medal, you can see that on the wall, near the bed, there is a wind catcher. Once Nancy says "If you say so, I was pretty drunk", the wind catcher disappears.

Flush with Power - S4-E22

Continuity mistake: Before the final board and zoning meeting finishes at the end of the episode, there are a number of people in the audience and a stenographer. As Hank is leaving they have all gone. It would have been near impossible for the entire room to vacate that quickly as less than half a minute had passed between seeing them and the room being completely empty.

Lummie

Movin' On Up - S4-E16

Continuity mistake: When Luanne gets home from work at the start of the episode, Bobby is waiting for her to get the food she brings home. She puts the duck shaped bag on his tray with the beak of it facing Bobby. The next shot its facing the other way.

Spin the Choice - S5-E3

Continuity mistake: At the start of the episode when Hank gives Bobby the turkey knife it is in a red padding. Just as he's about to carve the bread (for practice) the padding is now yellow and stays that color for the rest of the scene.

Lummie

Spin the Choice - S5-E3

Continuity mistake: During the scene where Bobby is accusing Hank for the first time of taking Native American land you can see Bill is standing behind Bobby. In a close up shot of Bobby, Bill is now standing to his right. As Bobby starts walking Bill is behind him again.

Now Who's the Dummy? - S5-E12

Continuity mistake: Whilst the old man in the retirement home is about to give Bobby the ventriloquist doll, there is a shot of just Bobby. In this shot you can see the jacket and hat on the coat rock and the coat is on the top rack. When we see both of them together the coat rack has another rack above the jacket now.

It's Not Easy Being Green - S5-E16

Continuity mistake: When Hank goes to Bobby's class for "environmental court" and is sworn in, you see Bobby sitting at a large desk and to the right there is nothing next to it. The next shot there are now a few empty desks next to the large desk.

Bystand Me - S10-E2

Continuity mistake: While Hank, Peggy, and Bobby are asking for help picking up the papers with the dangerous ammonia and bleach recipe, a person in back of the group they are talking to that was originally wearing a dark red hat, red shirt, and blond hair switches to a pink, light blue shirt, and brown hair. A window also suddenly appears behind this individual, where there wasn't one before. (00:17:49 - 00:18:11)

The Wedding of Bobby Hill - S3-E14

Trivia: During Hanks's conversation with Bobby when he tells him that he will have to marry Luanne, look at the shelf behind Bobby. There is a Bart Simpson doll there. A few years before this was featured the Hill family was in the crowd at one of the pee wee football games in the Simpsons episode "Bart Star".

More trivia for King of the Hill

Answer: If you are talking about the "Thou shalt not do this, thou shalt not do that" song, I'm not sure if a song like that actually exists. Green Day, the guest voices on the episode, might have just been improvising to keep their appearance from being too obvious.
