109 free King of the Hill trivia questions with answers — entertainment quiz, new questions added Oct 2026.
57 free King of the Hill trivia questions with answers. King of the Hill spent 13 seasons on Fox being the quietest, most carefully observed animated sitcom on television, and this quiz is for the people who noticed. Fifty-seven questions cover Hank Hill and Strickland Propane, Peggy's Boggle and her terrible Spanish, Bobby's prop comedy, the alley crew of Dale, Bill and Boomhauer, the Souphanousinphones next door, Cotton's war stories, the Mega Lo Mart explosion, the Fox finale, and the 2025 return on Hulu with an adult Bobby cooking in Dallas. The easy questions ask who created the show, what Hank sells and what town the Hills live in. The hard ones want Boomhauer's job, Dale's alias, the size of Peggy's feet, the real suburbs Arlen was built from and which episode won Pamela Adlon her Emmy. Made for anyone who has ever said 'I tell you what' without irony. Every answer was checked against Wikipedia's articles on the series, its seasons and its characters, and each question carries the sentence that backs it up.

Q 01Who co-created King of the Hill with Mike Judge?
Greg Daniels
Greg Daniels, an experienced prime-time comedy writer, rewrote Judge's pilot and added characters such as Luanne and Cotton, so Judge gave him full co-creator credit instead of the usual 'developed by'.
Q 02On which Arlen street do the Hills live?
Rainey Street
Rainey Street. The alley behind the Hills' house is where Hank and his friends gather to drink beer, and the other three streets are home to rival cartoon families.
Q 03Which grilling fuel do Peggy and Bobby have to hide from Hank, a propane loyalist?
Charcoal
Charcoal. In 'Hank and the Great Glass Elevator' Peggy and Bobby get a taste for charcoal-grilled burgers and hold a secret cookout, until Hank comes home to their stash of briquettes.
Q 04What is the name of the company Hank works for during the original run?
Strickland Propane
Strickland Propane. Hank is its assistant manager and reveres its owner, Buck, even though Buck is a hard-drinking, compulsive gambler who cheats on his wife.
Q 05Which actress voices Bobby Hill?
Pamela Adlon
Pamela Adlon. Her naturally low voice kept landing her boy roles, and she has pointed out the practical edge: a woman playing a boy won't have her voice break midway through a long run.
Q 06What subject does Peggy Hill teach as a substitute at the start of the series?
Spanish
Peggy is a substitute Spanish teacher whose own Spanish is notoriously poor; in 'Lupe's Revenge' her class trip to Mexico ends with her charged with kidnapping a girl.
Q 07In which US state was Peggy Hill born?
Montana
Montana. Peggy grew up on her family's cattle ranch there, and when the Hills visit in 'A Rover Runs Through It' they find her disapproving mother about to lose the ranch.
Q 08Bobby is a student at which Arlen institution?
Tom Landry Middle School
Tom Landry Middle School. In 'No Bobby Left Behind' its principal, Carl Moss, moves Bobby and Joseph into a 'special needs' class just to keep their low scores out of a standardized test.
Q 09What kind of performer does Bobby dream of becoming?
A prop comic
A prop comic. Bobby's hero is 'Celery Head', a thinly veiled Carrot Top, and the ambition dismays Hank, who would far rather his son cared about football.
Q 10How is Luanne Platter related to the Hills?
Peggy's niece
Luanne is Peggy's niece, the daughter of Peggy's brother Hoyt Platter; she moves in after her mother stabs her father with a fork in a trailer fight.
Q 11Hank's paranoid neighbour Dale is president of which Arlen club?
The gun club
The gun club. Dale presides over the Arlen Gun Club, yet it is his neighbour Minh, a crack shot of championship standard, who raises its game when she joins.
Q 12What alias does Dale use to hide his identity from the government?
Rusty Shackleford
Rusty Shackleford. Dale took the name from a real person, and in 'Peggy's Gone to Pots' the genuine Rusty tracks him down over the years of trouble it has caused him.
Q 13Who is Joseph Gribble's biological father?
John Redcorn
John Redcorn, Nancy's long-time 'healer', is Joseph's biological father; practically everyone in town knows except Nancy's husband, who once concluded that aliens had fathered the boy.
Q 21How did Cotton Hill lose his shins?
Japanese machine-gun fire in World War II
Cotton's shins were shot off by Japanese machine-gun fire in World War II, in the Pacific; surgeons reattached his feet to his knees, hence his stilted walk and short stature.
Q 22How many men does Cotton Hill boast of having killed in combat?
Fifty
Cotton boasts of having killed fifty men, 'fitty' as he says it, a tally he repeats at every opportunity; the count is dubious, but his combat service is not.
Q 23What does Cotton name the son he has with his second wife Didi?
Good Hank
Good Hank. Cotton shortens it to 'G.H.', a pointed dig implying that the first Hank was not good enough, and it is Bobby who ends up helping to deliver the baby.
Q 14Nancy Gribble's long affair with her 'healer' was passed off as treatment for which ailment?
Headaches
Headaches. The cover held for 14 years, until Nancy fell for her husband again and her lover, by then his friend, refused to carry on.
Q 15What is Bill Dauterive's job?
Army barber
Army barber. Bill cuts soldiers' hair at Fort Blanda, and in 'My Hair Lady' he lands a second job at Arlen's hippest salon, where he has to pretend to be gay to keep it.
Q 16What was Bill's nickname in his high-school football days?
The Billdozer
The Billdozer. When a younger player takes Bill's old touchdown record unfairly, Hank finds a loophole that puts the middle-aged Bill back on the field to set things right.
Q 17What is Boomhauer's first name?
Jeff
Jeff. The name goes unspoken for twelve seasons, until a Canadian woman greets him with it in season 13's 'Uh-oh, Canada'.
Q 18What job does Boomhauer turn out to have, revealed only in the closing moments of the Fox finale?
Texas Ranger
Texas Ranger. The show kept Boomhauer's work vague for 13 seasons, then the finale shows a Texas Ranger badge in the wallet lying open on his dresser.
Q 19From which country did the Hills' neighbours, the Souphanousinphones, emigrate?
Laos
Laos. The family settled first in Anaheim, California, and moved to Arlen after falling out with their neighbours there.
Q 20Connie Souphanousinphone is a 'Jr.', named after which character?
Kahn
Kahn. Her father wanted a son and gave his daughter his own name anyway, so her parents call her Kahn Jr.
Q 24What breed is the Hills' dog Ladybird?
Georgia bloodhound
Georgia bloodhound. Ladybird is a purebred, and Hank likes to claim that her mother helped track down James Earl Ray, the man who shot Martin Luther King.
Q 25Which medical condition of Hank's made Bobby's conception difficult?
A narrow urethra
A narrow urethra. Hank credits his dog for the cure: he believes that playing with the new puppy Ladybird relaxed him enough for the couple to conceive Bobby at last.
Q 26In which unlikely place was proud Texan Hank Hill actually born?
A ladies' room at Yankee Stadium
In 'Yankee Hankee' Hank learns he was born in a ladies' room at Yankee Stadium, making him a native New Yorker rather than a Texan, a revelation he treats as shameful.
