Peggy Hill Had Sex With a Gay Guy
Added 2022-03-31 20:44:38 +0000 UTC“Luann Virgin 2.0” (March 11, 2001)
We’re very happy to return to Arlen, Texas, to discuss a King of the Hill episode that has a small gay subplot — Peggy technically lost her virginity before she met Hank to a friend who needed to figure out if he was gay. However, in having that thread introduce a discussion of what’s reason enough for good, red-blooded heterosexual Christians to get married, this episode actually (accidentally?) also makes a good argument in favor of the reasons same-sex couples wanted to get married. Wayne Trotter, we wish we’d met you.
This episode begins with a discussion of the Screenrant article that argued why Peggy Hill is a bad mom. You don’t need to read the piece to understand what we’re talking about, but if you really feel like you must there it is.

This was such a great episode, it makes me want to put King of the Hill into my sitcom rewatch feed (I did a lot of Frasier in 2020 and Bob's Burgers last year)

2022-04-02 00:25:52 +0000 UTCOh yeah. Also a chaos engine. Peggy is like Lucy minus the ability to perceive her failures

2022-03-31 22:50:20 +0000 UTCI TOO am a raised Catholic person who experimented with born-again Christianity in college. It did not go well. I wish I had just experimented with drugs like everyone else, but at least I know a lot of trivia about theology and have actual reasons I can articulate for rejecting every form of Christianity and not just one type.
