You always like to laugh at Luanne's pain. She's a train-wreck character. These episodes made her feel human, made you feel like her faith deserved to be rewarded, even just a little.
Chaney Robertson its so sad and happy that she saw him even if she was dreaming he died so young and there both young and never got a chance of seeing life literally in tears watching this.
I've watched this scene so many times over the years and had never noticed before how much quicker Luanne is bouncing than Buckley....it is a subtle thing that makes that much more sad.
I was impressed by the hair. I think the animators had a field day showing off their skills with this scene, might even have been their idea and the reason it was put into the show.
Was a sad but touching episode , It was around the time my brother pass from cancer. Both of us was big Dragon ball z fans, I dreamed I was going down my stairs for a glass of water and he was sitting on my couch. He was looking at all my DBZ figures and DVD collection, he laughed and said ''you don't know nothing abut DBZ like me''. I took him up on his challenge and showed him my full collection of figures and DVD's. We sat and laughed watching episodes and enjoying each other's company. I remember I had apple juice in the fridge witch is his favorite. I asked if he wants some and he was like ''Heck yeah!''😂 went to the fridge got his juice turned around and he was gone I woke up.😞😥😥😥😭
@@mr.peanutbutter6969 When you lose someone close to you, every now and again you have a dream where you are with them. Deep down you know they are gone, but for some reason it doesn't feel like they're gone.
Well said I just lost my mama 3 weeks ago… and I’m feeling a lot of very strong emotions. I miss her, I can’t believe she won’t be here for the rest of my life… I’m only 23, my sister is 17, and my poor dad is too young to be widowed. I love them, and mom loved us all.
James De Leon this was one of the best Luanne episodes of King of the Hill I’ve ever watched, it was sad, it was sweet, and it was the deepest and most emotionally human episode of Luanne’s main plot that really touched me while the trampoline sub plot of Hank’s friends being one dimensionally goofy morons over treating Buckley’s angel like a deity was just well... amusingly okay. But Luanne’s epiphany of quitting beauty school and going to community college in the end had a much special meaning to show me what it means to be human and to simply live ones life to the fullest in the best way we all have to do when we’re just living in a universe of never ending change.
Buckley wasn’t that good of a boyfriend back when he was still living. Still it was nice of him to come back to earth to help Luanne realize she could do something else with her life. Too bad the new writers didn’t know enough and lazily made her go back to beauty expert. She had a talent in mechanics and should have made her a mechanic. At the very least she got to marry a man who loves her dearly and made a happy family with him and their beautiful baby girl.
The whole Lucky/Luanne couple thing I hated at first.. but after a while it kind of starts to make sense why they are actually a perfect fit for each other.
@@ZeroX7649 When he took Bobby to taste a corn chip off the line, I knew he was a good man. And he slipped on pee pee at the costco. Bahaha. This show was so genius.
kevin horsley Its so sad and happy. seeing her and Buckley like that he died so young and she is so young and never got the chance to experience there lives together literally am in tears watching this.
I saw this a few days ago. The episode is really deep and the song is very touching and bittersweet. It makes you want to cry. I love King of the Hill, and this has to be one of my favorite episodes.
Agree, one of my favorite episodes of all time. Makes me miss the late 90’s and early 2000’s so so so much whenever I watch the show, especially early seasons. BRB crying.
This reminded me of the dream I had about my best friend. Sitting next to him, in the passenger seat, cruising to somewhere in his car. (We did that a lot. He died in a car accident in '06 about a year before this dream) And I asked him the exact same thing about being dead. He just smiled. :) And I kept thinking "This is great! I can't wait to show everybody you're back!" I'm really grateful for that dream. It really felt like he came down just to hang out with me.
Shortly after my grandma died, I dreamt of her, sitting in her usual chair in my aunt's kitchen, like usual. I said something similar, but I said, "I forgot you were dead," after it occurred to me in this dream. She looked at me like I was stupid and went, "How the hell did you forget I was dead?!" It was very in character for her lmaooooo.
My grandpa died a little over a year ago. Two weeks after his death, I had a dream that I found him sitting on his bed in his old bedroom. I ran up to him and hugged him, and he said to me, "Sweetie, I am sorry I had to go. Just remember that I am always looking down on you and seeing what you are up to. I wanted to congratulate you on getting your new job and continuing your university education." I thanked him, and then he said to me, "I will always be with you, even if I am not there physically. Please take care of yourself, and take care of your family and friends. Especially Grandma and your mom." I woke up crying happy tears. 😭
Sometimes I think about scenes like this and wonder how this could possibly be the same show that gave me so many gut laughs. This scene is absolutely gorgeous
That song, 'Life in a Northern Town,' actually does have a kind of ethereal quality to it that, strange though it may sound, works pretty well for a scene with an angel. In particular, in the very end of this ep, when it's playing as Buckley returns to Heaven, it works perfectly.
@@sauercrowder The song is written by Dream Academy and there is a line in the song which references the singer/songwriter Nick Drake who died at the age of 26 from an overdose. He suffered from depression as his albums were not doing very well. It was only when he died that people took notice of his music. x
In this moment, it just gives Luanne the humanity she needs. Often she's seen as hot trailer trash... and there's reasons to feel that way. She comes from a broken home and lived a life of troubles, but retained that sense of blissful ignorance over the years. She's not the smartest cookie; but she's a passionate and oft bluntly honest person. Yet that bliss of hers can be taken for granted. She's a faithful woman who dearly wishes to do good, when all she's known was terrible people raising her prior to Hank and Peggy taking her in. Buckley is one of those boyfriends who wasn't right for her. He's dim-witted, oft selfish and rude. His own ignorance and incompetence got himself killed when dealing with matters far beyond his knowledge. (The propane explosion at the mega-lo mart.) But he didn't deserve to die in such a way. Luanne didn't need to experience loss in such a painful way. At least here; Luanne gets to experience the direction she needed through the vision of Buckley. Whether he earned his halo and place in heaven; or Luanne's faith pointing her in a path of building her future.
Sometimes life throws you a bone. Had a dream of my late sister and I partying it up like we always did. I was sad when the dream was over, though the joy of the dream was way beyond it. Miss ya sis. ❤
Way before I was born, my dad had a dream where him and his friend were hanging out and drinking and smoking cigarettes. The usual, and he woke up the next day to find out that friend committed suicide. I can tell my dad misses him whenever he's bright him up, and he hardly does.
It definitely would. As much as we enjoy our time with those we truly love it's not realistic to spend every moment with someone like it's our last. An opportunity like this would give us the chance to get real closure with someone from both sides. It really is a beautiful concept.
This episode helped restore a bit of my faith. I struggle to understand life a lot of the time and have lost a few of the most loved people in my life. But this scene helps me understand there is more to life and death than we can ever know while we're in this world. Enjoy life and be awesome to one another.
This is why KotH is the GOAT animated sitcom. Most only can manage crass humor. King had HEART. I cried when I watched this episode after one of my dogs died
This reminds me of when my grandma passed and later that week I had a dream that I got to see her one last time and say my proper goodbyes. Real or not it helped me learn to be at peace with it
My girlfriend passed away in December of 2020 due to depression, I was watching king of the hill and this episode came on and something about the music and the whole scene kinda hit me, I miss her, I hope she’s better
Guys complain about Buckley, but the dude acts like a typical late teens/early 20s guy. Especially if they're just working a job and living day to day. Very little gets them excited except for free food and new video games. They change as they older of course, but Buckley wasn't especially good or bad to Luanne. He was just typical for his age and lifestyle. Lucky was an older man with life experience by the time he met Luanne.
I remember the first time I watched this episode and just feeling so sad for Luanne's loss and than her seeing Buckley one last time and when this song came on I thought back to when this song first came out(I think it was late 85 early 86)when I was 16-17 and remembering my own teenage years in high school. I just recently found out an old middle school friend of mine passed away back in May of this year. Now this song has even more meaning to me.
One of the greatest King of the Hill episodes. Tackling the loss of someone important to you is difficult, but the way Luanne accepts it in a positive light makes this scene/episode so touching.
I remember this episode being on one morning when I was younger and getting ready for school. Straight fucking crying into my fruit loops, man. And still do. Love it.
good god. this was so ahead of it's time. still one of the most memorable scenes from my childhood. Not just in television but in general. I don't remember a lot of my childhood, but I always remembered this
When Buckley's angel mentioned Luanne's birth mark that made me think of something my friend once said to me. He told me they say that birthmarks are fatal wounds on your past lives when they passed.
I grew up hating Luanne, or at the very least finding her very annoying. But as a young adult with a dead brother, I now find that she's the realest character on the show.
The fireflies and the difference in bounce time, the fact that he only uses his OG catch phrases are clues to the fact it's a hallucination and then mentioning it makes it clearer and yet no less emotional.
Preach, brother, preach the teachings of The Grungy Messiah for He has risen to teach people about being excellent to each other, Bill And Ted style. He is our Lord and Savior, for it is He who has given us all of our desires and dreams and He has his flaws like us, so He made everyone have flaws like Him cause we all have flaws. The Grungy Messiah loves His children all the same.
This is one of my favorite scenes of the show sadly it’s not as good out of context you would have needed to at lest watch the episode where Buckley dies to fully get the feels so I can’t direct new fans to this
I don't think he was a hallucination. In the very, very end of the episode, he lingers for a little while after Luanne leaves. That wouldn't have happened if he were a hallucination.
Ew lol but at the end Buckley walked down the alley and took his halo out of his back pocket and put it on, he’s a real angel. Didn’t you read the patch on his vest? Hehe
The song and animation and just general wholesome moment was beautiful it reminds me why Luanne is so devoted to religion more than anyone else in the cast
It’s crazy to me to think that people haven’t lost a love one and haven’t felt that pain. As much of a mess as Luanne is in every other episode, I feel for her. This has to be one of my favorite episodes, tugs on heartstrings in a way
I’m a KOTH fanatic. Have been my whole life. But this episode… oh my gosh. It just makes me feel so many emotions!!!! I also grew up on Murphy’s movies, I was crushed when she passed away. RIP BRITTANY, BUCKLEY & TOM PETTY (LUCKY) !!!
I had dry eyes when Mufasa died and not even a single tear was shed during the whole duration of Fault In Our Stars but THIS sets me off. The fuck is wrong with me lol. It gets me emotional but in a good way.
God I haven’t cried like this in so long Kenny if you’re reading this I went to treatment and my life is okay now. I know yours might not ever be and for that I’m sorry But I’ll never EVER stop loving you
I know it's not as bad as some other stories here, but this one resonates with me personally because this was the King of the Hill episode that played on TV the night before I had my dog put down.
It’s ironic that in real life Brittany Murphy died and Tom Petty too but,David Herman is still alive (Luanne Platter & Lucky Kleinschmidt & Mark Buckley’s portrayers)
I never cried watching this show growing up. Then i heard the song well up and i broke down, im 30 years old and this just rekindled hope for me Edit: I cant thank you enough for posting this

It's a reminder that every time you laugh at someone else's misfortune, you're, well, doing exactly that. Perennial losers are people too.
Yep. And when Mike Judge stopped being involved with the show except for voicing characters the new writers turned her into a complete idiot.
@@chargermaster3676 the last kiss part in the episode messed me up.😭😭😭😭
this episode fucked me up. the whole story was much deeper than this show usually is. such great music, writing, and voicing
Lots of episodes of this show will hit you harder when you watch them years later. This one, this SCENE is particularly poignant.
The last kiss part in the episode messed me up.😭😭😭😭😭

"Than the show usually is" you aint right I tell you hwat

It's the first thing I noticed.

...or she's that excited to see him. Damn, read between the lines
@@6ANUR34DT81S they can take it how they want it?
Or she's more excited than he is about this, which sums up their living relationship
I like the fireflies and other little additions in this scene. It's a nice touch of animation we normally don't see in the show.
I was impressed by the hair. I think the animators had a field day showing off their skills with this scene, might even have been their idea and the reason it was put into the show.
Me too. I think this is the most beautiful scene of the show. Perfect music.
@Red Coin My grandma believes this about butterflies and her husband. I like that.
Luanne, jumps normal time on trampoline
Buckley the angel float jumping✨✨✨
I noticed them too. It was the icing on the cake. This show is the greatest animated show of all time
"No that part's over now."
"Why?"
"Chicken thigh."
Oh sweet Luanne. 💜
The last kiss in the episode got me. 😭😭😭😭
That's the most profound statement that's basically the theme of the episode. Accepting that part of her life is behind her now

Brittany Murphy, i never really saw much of you after 8 mile and king of the hill... but I'm still pretty sad you and king of the hill are gone.
This really was a special show, at times it gave Futurama a run for its money in terms of a hard-hitting emotional moments, this episode is lovely.
Cartoons that make your eyes wet, I must be depressed or getting old.
Jeff Heck for real though. Many memories
Nah you're just human :)

This was a very beautiful episode.
The shape of a Honda key 🗝
The parody of Brooklyn nine-nine

Thats when bucky shoots Van Driessen in the heart for telling his step-brother, Butt Head not to talk to the cops

Very little gets them excited except for free food and new video games. They change as they older of course, but Buckley wasn't especially good or bad to Luanne.

I just recently found out an old middle school friend of mine passed away back in May of this year. Now this song has even more meaning to me.
I think it means even more to those of us that were growing up around the time this song came out. ❤️
Rewatching this episode again. Early KOTH had so much pathos. This scene is so simultaneously heartwarming and heartbreaking.
The funny part is Buckley actually looks like the Dream Academy singer.
The song makes it even more beautiful
One of the greatest King of the Hill episodes. Tackling the loss of someone important to you is difficult, but the way Luanne accepts it in a positive light makes this scene/episode so touching.

This episode was so freaking beautiful!
I grew up hating Luanne, or at the very least finding her very annoying. But as a young adult with a dead brother, I now find that she's the realest character on the show.
We take for granted what we have, life is precious. Even if it's a very mediocre boyfriend like Buckley the pain and love is still there.
right in the feels! I remember seeing this episode when it aired.
Every time I come back to this moment every couple of years, it makes me feel so whole, fulfilled, and sad all in this strange way.
When i was a kid i watched the 2 part series of when the megalo mart blew up and they were like "who will die!?!?" poor buckley
It was either gonna be him or Chuck Mangione.
The fireflies and the difference in bounce time, the fact that he only uses his OG catch phrases are clues to the fact it's a hallucination and then mentioning it makes it clearer and yet no less emotional.
One of the many reasons, I loved King of the Hill
Someone make a compilation of every time buckley says "hey"

This is one of my favorite scenes of the show sadly it’s not as good out of context you would have needed to at lest watch the episode where Buckley dies to fully get the feels so I can’t direct new fans to this
Its a testsment to Luanne's innocence since Buckley was such a douche to her.
if it was a hallucination of course he would know about the birthmark cus he would know everything luanne knows
Meaning that Buckley never knew her that well? Or he would know that because he had sex with her.
He was a hallucinogen of her mind.
I don't think he was a hallucination. In the very, very end of the episode, he lingers for a little while after Luanne leaves. That wouldn't have happened if he were a hallucination.
Hallucinogen
Ew lol but at the end Buckley walked down the alley and took his halo out of his back pocket and put it on, he’s a real angel. Didn’t you read the patch on his vest? Hehe
This is tv at its best. And my god the perfect song.
Hey.
Absolutely. Well said❤️
This scene gets you in the feels, I feel really bad for Luanne! Becuz it feels as if know one understands her.
Watched this again the other night. Serious feels. :'(
Oh God, I'm getting that gut feeling and I'm struggling to hold my tears right now.
This scene made me cry
I love this song playing.
The dream academy
I completely forgot about Life in a Northern Town
Also why is Buckley deeper as a character dead than alive?
Edit: damn most like I’ve got of a comment I think so THANK YOU
Drawingfandom, most people are.
Bingo.
Because he's not important. What's important is how he affects Luanne. And you can do that post-mortem.
Buckley's the deepest character period.
Because this isn't Buckley. It's how Luanne saw Buckley as.

Wow! Buckley almost smile! :-D

This episode is why I now listen to Life In A Northern Town.
Oh come on... the part where he pulls the halo out out of his pocket is great
Thanks for putting this up ADubb. This was a fitting ending to a good episode.
The song and animation and just general wholesome moment was beautiful it reminds me why Luanne is so devoted to religion more than anyone else in the cast
One of the more artistic and emotional episodes of King of the Hill. Gah this was so sad.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
whut, chickenbutt
People do realize when it said Buckley's angel that means that that it's not actually Buckley that's The Guardian angel that watched over Buckley.
It’s crazy to me to think that people haven’t lost a love one and haven’t felt that pain. As much of a mess as Luanne is in every other episode, I feel for her. This has to be one of my favorite episodes, tugs on heartstrings in a way
So I wanted to get you those earrings you wanted for your birthday but I'm kinda tapped out so here's some CDs I don't listen to anymore
😂😂😂😂😂
Later, Buckley
This was a beautiful episode
10 years and 2 days ago :(. RIP Brittany gone too soon
Beautiful. R.I.P. BRITTANY MURPHY
I’m a KOTH fanatic. Have been my whole life. But this episode… oh my gosh. It just makes me feel so many emotions!!!! I also grew up on Murphy’s movies, I was crushed when she passed away. RIP BRITTANY, BUCKLEY & TOM PETTY (LUCKY) !!!
This scene broke my heart 😩
This song came on while I was at the bank the other day and I immediately thought of this scene.
I had dry eyes when Mufasa died and not even a single tear was shed during the whole duration of Fault In Our Stars but THIS sets me off. The fuck is wrong with me lol. It gets me emotional but in a good way.
In the wild Mufasa would have died a sooner more painful death.
This is such a beautiful episode
This episode just made Luanne more adorable 🥹🥺🥺
God I haven’t cried like this in so long
Kenny if you’re reading this I went to treatment and my life is okay now. I know yours might not ever be and for that I’m sorry
But I’ll never EVER stop loving you
One of the most memorable scenes of all time
This show has so many beautiful moments... This, Kahn's tiger story, so many lessons from fictional stories.❤
Though it isn't my favorite episode its my favorite moment in the entire series
This was an awesome episode beautiful. I remember I got chills watching this episode. Cute.
All time favorite king of the hill scene!
probably my favorite scene from this show
I wonder if angels really visit people like that? It would definitely make closure easier
I know it's not as bad as some other stories here, but this one resonates with me personally because this was the King of the Hill episode that played on TV the night before I had my dog put down.
It’s ironic that in real life Brittany Murphy died and Tom Petty too but,David Herman is still alive (Luanne Platter & Lucky Kleinschmidt & Mark Buckley’s portrayers)
This was one of the best episodes of the show so far...
With the name and angel wings, he could be Jeff Buckley
Luanne is gorgeous
I can’t watch this. Not without bawling like a big fat baby.
I never cried watching this show growing up. Then i heard the song well up and i broke down, im 30 years old and this just rekindled hope for me
Edit: I cant thank you enough for posting this
I wish they could have done this for Luanne and Lucky. They're two of my favorite characters. And two wonderful entertainers ❤
I miss them so much❤❤❤
