It’s been 12 years since we last had the chance to see Hank, Dale, Bill, and Boomhauer standing on the front lawn saying “Yep” in their own distinct ways, and I, for one, have kind of missed it. Whether it’s Bill’s moronic drivel and obsession with Peggy Hill, Dale’s paranoid and weak-willed manner, Boomhauer’s strange mumbling talk, or Hank’s straight-laced attitude, this show was fun from start to finish. But it does feel as though the changes that might need to be made to satisfy some viewers might alter the show in a way that might not be conducive to bringing back the same kind of feel that the show brought a little over a decade ago. It’s tough to argue that some of the elements of this show weren’t offensive in some way, but it’s easy to state that those elements were needed since they brought a greater overall feel to the show that made it ring a little truer to the audience as the interactions between the various characters were over the top, but also more than a little effective.
