![Video thumbnail — Beavis and Butthead Do America (1996) Theatrical Trailer [4K] [5.1] [FTD-1015]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/RzYWKWtRmzQ/maxresdefault.jpg)
MTV's cackling couch potatoes trade their couch for a cross-country road trip when their TV gets stolen. It's chaotic, it's vulgar, and it opened #1 with the biggest December weekend any film had ever managed at the time. Mike Judge's feature debut turned a controversial TV phenomenon into a theatrical event that felt impossibly big.
In the fictional Texas suburb of Arlen, Hank Hill tends his post as assistant manager at Strickland Propane—where he sells 'propane and propane accessories' with the understated decency that defines him. Mike Judge and Greg Daniels created a grounded animated comedy that treated its working-class characters with genuine affection, centered on the beer-drinking alley banter of Hank and his neighbors. Premiering on Fox in 1997, King of the Hill won an Emmy in 1999 and became a quiet landmark of late-90s television, proving that a show about a propane salesman could outrun trends and speak to the heart of American ordinariness.
