* Dale has had long standing issues with his actual father, whom he saw forcing himself upon his wife Nancy on their wedding day (though it wasn't what it looked like), so he might see "The Colonel" as sort of a surrogate father. He has Cotton as a houseguest in "The Final Shinsult" and "Daletech", and despite Dale's typical hinky ways, he does seem to genuinely admire Cotton, if just for his history as a war hero. He blows up Hank's "sissy shack" in remembrance of Cotton.

** Hank knows full well what an underhanded scumbag Buck is, but represses his full acknowledgement of it to not only keep a job he dearly loves, but also to project the integrity of Strickland Propane. It's more of a "respect the office, if not the man" sort of thing. If Hank quit Strickland, the business would go under in a week, and Hank couldn't do that to "Sweet Lady Propane". But notice that when he gets drunk off his ass on Long Island Ice Teas in "What Happens at the National Propane Convention in Memphis..." (miffed at Buck blowing him off to go wilding out with his bastard son "Ray Roy"), he delivers an '''EPIC''' TheReasonYouSuckSpeech, deriding Buck Strickland as a "drunk monster" and a "lecherous, disgusting, bastard-making bastard". It's only when Hank gets seriously shitfaced that he can finally admit and express the real truth about the man he admired.

** Hank is a ''nineties'' conservative and patriot, and the constant adulating and worshipping of the military is very much a post-2001 phenomenon. Even the conservatives in the nineties were a little disdainful of the military, and saw it as, at best, just another job, or, at worst, a line of work you went into when you'd failed out of the real world. Also, Hank is used to seeing Bill and Bill in uniform is still just Bill to him.

Bill claims he doesn't mind them making fun of him normally, but he doesn't want it done when he's in uniform. In essence, he's asking them to show respect for sergeant Bill Dauterive, or at the very least, the US Army. Dale I can understand disrespecting any institution of the US federal government, but why would patriotic conservative Hank Hill keep making fun of Bill, even when Bill is in uniform? It seems very much out of character.

* That was something of a retcon, as the episode focused on her family in Montana depicts them ''radically'' different from how they were shown before, and it made it pretty clear that they had moved to Texas instead of staying in Montana, and that her parents had ''moved back'' at some point. None of this was directly stated, but it was implied by their original appearances, in both the literal and figurative sense, and the episode "A Rover Runs Through It" just ignored all of the prior ones.

Technically, asses ''are'' located below the belt... so Hank may be a bit of a hypocrite in saying to Bobby that only dirty fighters aim for that area. I suppose, though, as long as it isn't the 'nards, it's permissible to aim one's aggression at an opponent's butt, knees, shins, and feet.

Answering about Couch Sours
Added DiffLines:
** He was already crazy from the beginning, that was the point of the episode. He had the kids do heavy exercise, like relentlessly run up and down the bleachers, threw footballs excruciatingly hard at them, and made them do pushes while ''telling'' them to eat mud doing it, and lastly, the ''reason'' he ran into the brick wall himself with a ''cracked open'' helmet was because it was his "test" for if it was faulty, and Joseph wouldn't do it himself, because it was obvious it was a bad idea. Couch Sours makes it abundantly clear, as does Hank in that episode and others, that the man was and still is a psychotically vicious hard-ass. The car was just the last straw for Hank. As to what happened to him, Hank hit him with an empty container for Gatorade, which considering Hank is not a man who intends lethal force, it's unlikely it killed him. It isn't shown or mentioned because we can presume that he was either arrested or fired from Hank stepping in and handling it, as what else would/could he do with him? As for him being killed, King of the Hill isn't the kind of show to just kill people without either making it clear that there dead, as with Big Jim, Buckley, Trip Larson, and so on...

** It's Texas. Football is their state religion. That particular time slot is doomed for any local network, so they probably wanted to air the cheapest crap they could fill the hole with. They also had a 20-year-old girl with a box of puppets who wanted airtime. So logically, they gave her part of the time slot to fill it while also humoring her to make her happy. Worst-case-scenario: Nobody watches it, which they were already prepared for anyway. Best-case-scenario: Small children had something wholesome and inoffensive to hold their attention while their parents watched the big game in the other room.
