What's really disturbing on this thread is that it points out how the rural sitcom has completely disappeared in the last twenty years.

I guess network execs think the entire country resides in urban sprawl.

Actually King Of the Hill wasn't set in the country it was set in the suburbs.

Yeah, but that's about as rural as things get on TV these days!
