60 free King of the Hill trivia questions with answers — entertainment quiz, new questions added Aug 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 21How did Cotton Hill lose his shins?
Japanese machine-gun fire in World War II

Q 14How long did Nancy Gribble's affair with the local 'healer' last?

Kahn
She is Kahn Souphanousinphone Jr., a straight-A violin prodigy who becomes Bobby's first girlfriend.

Q 26In which unlikely place was proud Texan Hank Hill actually born?
