Heheh. Like that garden gnome episode.
Priceless. Or Bobby the cheerleader. Or Bobby the white wizard.
While I don't have Hank's particular views, I find them strangely endearing. He has such simple, straightforward views... and I tend to overcomplicate things, so I'm glad there's such a mix of people in this country. We need these many types of people, and I always felt that somehow, the show was supporting that. As others have said, I think the show doesn't really paint individuals up as "evil" people -- everyone's got their major flaws, which serve as the basis for the farce.
As for that asian mentality... the go-getter attitude is a fairly accurate
caricature of what I feel plagues a lot of 1st-generation Asian families... least from my background and the people I've known. *shrug*
I love the show. I haven't seen it much lately. Is it still on?

We're calling it a freeway. Eight lanes of shimmering cement running from here to Pasadena. Smooth, safe, fast. Traffic jams will be a thing of the past. I see a place where people get on and off the freeway. On and off, off and on all day, all night! Soon there will be a string of gas stations, inexpensive motels, restaurants that serve rapidly prepared food! Tire salons, automobile dealerships and wonderful, wonderful billboards reaching as far as the eye can see! My God... It'll be beautiful.
