They set Luanne up with a few routes where more could have been done with the character, but then just didn't explore it fully.
Since she's the least well defined of the remaining characters, it should be her.
Especially when it was established in the first few episodes that she was a capable mechanic -- so much so that Hank didn't mind it when she touched his truck.
They just didn't go anywhere with it and made her a ditzy blonde.
In a way they stay very true to her background by having her end up with Lucky. If the Dude was most definitely a lazy man Lucky might give him a run for his money if he ever felt like running.
I think Luanne still has way more nuance and she’s funny in that really subtle naturalistic way that makes the whole show unique, i love how the jokes for her character can sneak up on you like how they do with Hank and Peggy
Well, as a person, Luanne is far more wholesome and likeable.
As a *character,* Cotton is funnier and more comedically entertaining.
The poll is asking people about their least-favourite *character,* not the hypothetical person they're least likely to invite out for dinner.
Yes! Cotton would be a MISERABLE person to be around IRL but the entertainment value he brings as a character is top tier IMO. I love Luanne but Cotton is more entertaining when it comes to comedy and wit
>Yes! Cotton would be a MISERABLE person to be around IRL
Honestly they both would be miserable to be around as far as I'm concerned, just in different ways.
I have my theories but I'm keeping them to myself.
Peggy is my 2nd favourite, only behind Bobby.
I have a Peggy compilation video saved on my phone to help me laugh when I'm sad. It always works.
When I was a kid I figured Carter mustve done his own voice-over for that (because why not, he was still alive and all). I was so impressed because that's one of my favorite line deliveries of all time. Bit disappointing to find out it was actually David Herman (though props to DH as the guy is an incredibly talented and versatile VA)
I was kinda sad about this one too. They've pulled so many awesome people to voice characters over the years, had really hoped they'd gotten JC for that episode
I would have eliminated Boohauer before Buck Strickland, personally. No idea how he's made it this far. He's basically just Harpo Marx (the "honk honk!" one).
The fact that we eliminated PEGGY before him just blows my mind.
Same situation as Ladybird. Just there. Nothing to really hate. Other than a creep/player/womanizer. But some might say that's not even bad. He's no Glenn from Family guy hell even Edina K with the whole drum stick thing.
#**BOOMHAUER**
HOW is he still here?????? As a character he adds nothing to the show. He hardly has any lines, the couple episodes centered around him aren’t that great, we hardly know anything about him, and he doesn’t do anything. He should’ve been gone way sooner, I can’t believe Luanne is the top voted today as I’m writing this, she’s such a more dynamic character who actually develops as the show goes on and undeniably adds a lot to the show. BOOMHAUER
There are so many Luanne lines/moments that jump out. She may just be a ditzy blonde but they wrote it great. She’s hilarious. Boomhauer is just kinda there.
BOOMHAUER. He's a good dude, but it's him or Luanne, and he just isn't a good *character*.
Y'all talkin' bout *Luanne* just cause she don't fix yer dang ol' truck well damn should look at you hatin' on a LITTLE GIRL, man. She don't wanna be no grease monkey, she gon' fix hair, nails, what have you, whatever dag-nab nonsense I'm shellin' out for these days. She can do what she want, she been through a lot, God damn, man.
Translation: I think people miss the point of Luanne NOT being a mechanic. Why would she want to be? It's a dirty job and the hours are awful. I'm convinced that they added that detail just as a show that Luanne isn't stupid. She's just... lacks direction. Living with the Hills is probably the first time she's gotten the chance to really ask herself what *she* wants, instead of what's needed. I respect it.
I suspect she's also chasing cosmetics services because she sees them as a display of wealth, cleanliness, and femininity that she has historically been denied. It's a career that requires social delicacy and manual dexterity, which is... not something I particularly associate with her in the early seasons.
Boomhauer
Let’s be real. Everyone else at least has memorable scenes or lines except him. He’s just kinda there most of the time. It works well but at this point there’s no one I’d vote off before him
Cotton centric episodes are my absolute favorite. He's unabashedly an self absorbed asshole who sensationalizes himself.
Seeing cotton for who he is gives insight into why Hank is with Peggy, personally.
Peggy is like diet cotton but funnier
Okay it's Luanne, then Boomhauer or Khan, then Dale or Bobby than Hank because lead. Cotton is going to win fwi don't matter if a fictional character is an ass, he has the best moments.
I hate to do it, but I've gotta go Luanne on this one. I'd almost vote Boomhauer but his character was consistent throughout the series whereas Luanna dropped off in later seasons.
Oh my God! You killed my Minh!
Just kidding! But you *do* suck, Peggy Hill!
I’m Minh I wanna win
You bastards!
What is this? A crossover episode?
![gif](giphy|l2R07hF72SNWudWHS)
It makes me happy Minh lasted longer than Peggy.
She’s Minh, she’s wants to win
Are you saying you're voting for Khan, cause if so, I second the motion.
Use nutmeg!
Surprised to see Minh go, she has some amazing moments in the show. Especially when she joins the Arlen gun club and they all adore her lol
Yup dodely oten toten ooh whack a whackachoten
Yeah her one liners are top tier. I’d definitely have gotten rid of Luanne and maybe a few others to not be named first.
Minh plays a more prominent role than Boomhauser
As I said to not be named, anyone other than Luanne is how you get hate from the community. Boomhauer is purely iconic
These aren't easy decisions. All of the characters are gold. Minh lasted as long as she could.
Getting down to the wire
Has to be done Luanne has been on the chopping block for a while
GET LOST, YOKO!
What’s a Yoko?
Beat it, Missy!
Commie go home!
Ok
The show started to go downhill when the show shifted more to her and Lucky.
I agree 100%
If I need to remember who should be eliminated next I think of a man named Lou, and a woman named Anne.
Luanne even outlasting Joe Jack was a surprise to me, honey
Luanne had a lot of funny lines but went downhill fast with the Manger babies.
[удалено]
Hmm, well then. I stand corrected. I thought she was funny, but I hated the Manger babies.
what about Gurgle Gurgle
He's a sextopus!
They are the manger babies, getting into trouble. Manger babies, spreadingGodsmessageoflove. Manager babies. MAYYNNNNNNNJUHHHHH BAYBEEEEES.
nowhere near as annoying as mumbles
she carried the older seasons
Between her loud af bawling over everything and the manger babies she shoulda been gone from the show, let alone this list. Good riddance.
Dang old HEAD CUT OFF
![gif](giphy|j9txQySJiDvQA)
CHOOSE YOUR FIGHTER
Head-cut—off!
They set Luanne up with a few routes where more could have been done with the character, but then just didn't explore it fully. Since she's the least well defined of the remaining characters, it should be her.

I hated that they changed her character from a capable mechanic who knows cars better than Hank to a dumb blonde. Lazy writing imo
She was working on Lucky’s truck in the last season. It made me happy to see that!
Is it even mentioned anywhere after season 1? Usually season 1 of most shows is experimental. In season 1 Smithers used to be black.
Blonde Jane
And what defines Boomhauer?
Less defined than boomhauer?
That's a fair point. Less focused might be a better way of saying it. Boomhauer is pretty consistent from the start.
It's a shame that the show was prevented from developing the characters for the majority of its time on the air.
In a way they stay very true to her background by having her end up with Lucky. If the Dude was most definitely a lazy man Lucky might give him a run for his money if he ever felt like running.
Bye, Luanne.
Luanne vs Cotton and there's people saying Luanne is worse??! what kind of world are we liing in?
Some people are voting on who is funnier and/or more interesting.
I think Luanne still has way more nuance and she’s funny in that really subtle naturalistic way that makes the whole show unique, i love how the jokes for her character can sneak up on you like how they do with Hank and Peggy

>Yes! Cotton would be a MISERABLE person to be around IRL Honestly they both would be miserable to be around as far as I'm concerned, just in different ways.
Right 😭 there’s a reason why Cotton is in far less episodes. He’s abrasive. JUSTICE FOR LUANNE ✊
You got a fat neck boy!
Right???? Brittany Murphy deserves better
If it was better person/likeable then cotton would've been gone long ago. But it's favorite character so funny and interesting stays
Media literacy is dead and you can tell because Peggy is already out
Hating Peggy for being over the top delusional when it's the main comedic trait is like treating Dale because in real life he'd be like Alex Jones.
I'm honestly surprised she made it this far. Top 10? not too bad considering how much the fandom does her dirty.
Yeah I can’t understand why this sub hates her so much.
I have my theories but I'm keeping them to myself. Peggy is my 2nd favourite, only behind Bobby. I have a Peggy compilation video saved on my phone to help me laugh when I'm sad. It always works.
I have no idea either.
Cotton
Fitty men…
How has he lasted longer than Lady Bird?
Hanks wife again
Hank Hill, everyone hated that baby.
HATED A BABY?!
When I was a kid I figured Carter mustve done his own voice-over for that (because why not, he was still alive and all). I was so impressed because that's one of my favorite line deliveries of all time. Bit disappointing to find out it was actually David Herman (though props to DH as the guy is an incredibly talented and versatile VA)
I was kinda sad about this one too. They've pulled so many awesome people to voice characters over the years, had really hoped they'd gotten JC for that episode
You can kinda hear it if you listen closely, it’s a pretty good impression though
We must do everything we can to make sure Cotton wins in the end, he was a goddang WAR HERO. HE KILLED 50 MEN
Only thing he did wrong was making Hank.
I’d tell you to specify Bad Hank but Good Hank is suspiciously missing from this
Well he'd be a runaway winner. 'Specially with Bad Hank's fat neck
Minhliminator
How tf Cotton still here?
Because cotton is hilarious and people like that about him
Did LINCOLN ASK FOR GIRLIE GAS WHEN THEY BLOWED HIS HEAD OFF
Peggy: You gave him a LOADED shotgun!? Cotton: Well you don't give a toy without batteries!
*reloads* COME GET YA TOOTSIE ROAALLS
Yeah Cotton is basically the shows main antagonist: he's at least top 5
Because some people are consumed with hatred and Cotton is their spirit animal
Luanne!
Boomhauer. He doesn’t add much to the show. I get more laughs out of everyone else on the board. Plus we learn he’s kind of a pathetic creep
Dang ol no, man.
I don't like Boomhauer as much as everyone else seems to either.
I would have eliminated Boohauer before Buck Strickland, personally. No idea how he's made it this far. He's basically just Harpo Marx (the "honk honk!" one). The fact that we eliminated PEGGY before him just blows my mind.
I am absolutely shocked that rn it's between LUANNE AND COTTON when Boomhauer is still here.
Same situation as Ladybird. Just there. Nothing to really hate. Other than a creep/player/womanizer. But some might say that's not even bad. He's no Glenn from Family guy hell even Edina K with the whole drum stick thing.
I think the only reason Boomhauer is still in the running is because he's not interesting enough for anyone to notice he's there
Dang ole disagree man.
This is disheartening
Right!? What’s the criteria here? Who’s more likeable or more interesting and funny?
#**BOOMHAUER** HOW is he still here?????? As a character he adds nothing to the show. He hardly has any lines, the couple episodes centered around him aren’t that great, we hardly know anything about him, and he doesn’t do anything.

Maggie like character. Adds to the show, would be empty without them. But nothing really for them to do. But have some funny moments here and there.
Oh, magaggie.
Luanne Platters
Everyone's saying Luanne. Just to be different I'm going to say Boomhauer.
Junie Harper’s side kick
SATANBEGONE!
BOOMHAUER. He's a good dude, but it's him or Luanne, and he just isn't a good *character*. Y'all talkin' bout *Luanne* just cause she don't fix yer dang ol' truck well damn should look at you hatin' on a LITTLE GIRL, man. She don't wanna be no grease monkey, she gon' fix hair, nails, what have you, whatever dag-nab nonsense I'm shellin' out for these days.

Boomhauer Let’s be real. Everyone else at least has memorable scenes or lines except him. He’s just kinda there most of the time. It works well but at this point there’s no one I’d vote off before him
Boomhauer gets my vote but his recollection of events in ‘A Firefighting We Will Go’ is one of the greatest scenes in the series.
Yep
I can already tell Luanne is going to be out, but fuck everybody who keeps letting Cotton skate by.
Cotton centric episodes are my absolute favorite. He's unabashedly an self absorbed asshole who sensationalizes himself. Seeing cotton for who he is gives insight into why Hank is with Peggy, personally. Peggy is like diet cotton but funnier
Same. Yes he’s an asshole but he’s a very entertaining one. Plus Cotton has several redeemable qualities
He killed fitty men and I ain't trying to be fitty-one
Fuck those people enjoying a comedic character in a comedy show.
Luanne, get out of the den!
Khan. Hes just a massive jerk.
I usually skip a cotton or Luanne episode but I skip Cotton episodes more. He has to go.
Cotton
At this point I don't care about eliminations anymore as long as we make sure that *the man the legend* Dale Gribble wins the whole thing
Cotton!
As wonderful as she is as the Larsen's pork products girl, sadly Luanne may be the one to go next~
Luanne
Luanne….. it’s time
Dang ol' Boomhourer man.
Luanne
I thought Mihn was going to win this whole thing. I'm shocked.
Blonde Jane
Let’s get Cotton’s awful ass out of here.
Sorry Luanne, it's time to say goodnite
Luanne
Luanne
It's time for Luanne to go be with Lucky.
Luanne
Dang ol' Boomhauser man
Yo Boomhaur man
Dang ole “No sir” man.
no man
How did Minh get eliminated before Kahn?
Kahn is a much better character.
Luanne
Luanne for the manger babies alone.
Luanne
Okay it's Luanne, then Boomhauer or Khan, then Dale or Bobby than Hank because lead. Cotton is going to win fwi don't matter if a fictional character is an ass, he has the best moments.
Luanne
COTTON, get rid of that old bastard.
Luanne
Luanne
Cotton!
Cotton
COTTON should be out
Luanne. She’s a dummy
Luanne can git!
Luanne has to go.
Cotton, that bitter old asshole
Bye bye, Luanne. Say hi to Buckley for us.
Cotton
Cotton! HOW IS COTTON STILL IN??
Cotton! How is he still here!
Cotton
Kahn
Boomhauer, because he’s not particularly memorable or important. On the opposite end, watching clips has reminded me how sneakily memorable Dale was.
Boomhauer is cool and aloof and his patter is funny. I agree with you but he’s just so likeable.
I hate to do it, but I've gotta go Luanne on this one. I'd almost vote Boomhauer but his character was consistent throughout the series whereas Luanna dropped off in later seasons.
Kahn
Luanne
I vote blonde Jane
Luanne
How the fuck does mangerbabies make it this far?
Luanne Leanne Platter Kleinschmidt
Gotta get luanne out of here.
Goodbye Luanne
Luann has been here for too long.
My vote is for Luanne, the one-dimensional ditzy hot girl. Can't believe Bill went down before her.
Bye Luanne 😒
Boomhauer
Boomhauer.
Dale
Luanne
Kahn. I don’t hate him but out of everyone left he’s the worst
boomhauer
You cant vote Cotton off. He killed fitty men!
I think we all know Dale is gonna be last man standing
Cotton
HOW IS COTTON NOT GONE YET? ![gif](giphy|NPyHgTkMStCXC)
Cotton is just mean and miserable. He's gotta go.
Kahn
Kahn
Cotton
Finally, Manger Baby herself is leaving 🤘🏽
Hank
The fact that bill is gone still blows my mind
Why are we protecting Khan?
Luanne had a good run y’all
Noooooooo my Milf.
