Mike Judge's hilarious animated celebration of a man who loves his country, his family, and propane (not necessarily in that order) gets the royal treatment for its release on DVD. King of the Hill: The Complete Second Season has been transferred to disc in its original full-frame aspect ratio of 1.33:1. The audio has been mastered in Dolby Digital Surround; in addition to the original English-language soundtrack, alternate Spanish-dubbed tracks also appear, as well as optional subtitles in English and Spanish. Bonus materials include commentary tracks on selected episodes from the show's writers and producers, as well as "in character" commentaries from the show's cast members. The show's directors also provide introductions to many of the episodes. Other goodies include additional scenes, animatics, and alternate endings; a guide to drawing the King of the Hill characters yourself; music videos; selections from the book The Boy Ain't Right; and more.

Just as Saturday Night Live producer Lorne Michaels pushes his films through the Hollywood machine, so too has Paramount Pictures with this simplistic DVD release that isn't worth a second viewing. Paramount apparently didn't expect any serious collector to purchase this film. Extras are limited to the standard theatrical trailer, Dolby 5:1 and Surround options, and French subtitles and language track. The disc feels like it's meant to be a rental, and the film isn't helped by its widescreen format either, since there's nothing in the edges of the frame that's really worth seeing. The film is the story of two loser brothers, Steve (Will Ferrell) and Doug Butabi (Chris Kattan), who go to Hollywood clubs, unsuccessfully hitting on chicks. It started as a two-minute sketch on TV's Saturday Night Live and is now stretched into 90 laborious minutes of the same joke. In this case, the joke is really on the DVD viewer.
