Most of the time, it is Dale in fact who causes most of Hank's trouble. He is a skinny, smoking exterminator, who due to his health is told he could die before he is 50, in "The Exterminator". In "Care Takin' Care of Business", she meets Lucky, who first appeared in "The Redneck on Rainy Street", and she later gets married to and has a baby with.ĭale Alvin Gribble is a neurotic and paranoid conspiracy theorist and friend of Hank Hill. She becomes slightly depressed after her boyfriend Buckley dies in "Propane Boom", but gets over it when she sees his angel in "Wings of the Dope". Luanne Leanne Platter Kleinschmidt is a stereotypical and promiscuous blonde who is portrayed as a good mechanic in earlier seasons. Despite all this, he is loyal to his father and only wants to please him. Bobby has awkward moments with Hank, and the two get along in an on and off fashion, sometimes Hank is proud of his son, like in "Suite Smell of Excess" where Bobby gets a liking in football, but sometimes he is bitterly shamed of him, like in "Bobby Goes Nuts" where Bobby fends off bullies by kicking them in the groin. Robert Jeffery "Bobby" Hill is Hank and Peggy's overweight son who has an ambition to be a prop comic when he's older, much to Hank's dismay. She is also a winner of the Tom Landry Middle School Substitute Teacher Award three years in a row, and has been or is a restauranter, ("High Anxiety") an avid boggle fan ("Peggy the Boggle Champ"-present), a newspaper columnist ("Bystand Me"-"Glen Peggy Glen Ross") and a real estate agent ("Glen Peggy Glen Ross"-present). On top of this, she is a substitute Spanish teacher at Tom Landry Middle School, but will gladly jump on any opportunity to substitute, like in "Square Peg" where she becomes the sex ed teacher. She is seen often to think she is very smart and she tends to be over-protective of Bobby and sometimes, Luanne.

Margaret "Peggy" Platter Hill is a well-meaning but arrogant and conceited mother and wife. He resembles the character Tom Anderson from Beavis and Butt-head. The assistant manager is the usual-protagonist of the series, and in a lot of episodes, he must fix everything after his friends mess up something important of his.

Although Hank is well-meaning, he can be somewhat annoyingly compulsive about little things and aggressive to others, for example, in "Hank's Dirty Laundry" he goes to court to get out of paying $40 for a pornography film he didn't rent. He frequently boasts his selling of "propane and propane accessories" and is a proud worker for Strickland Propane. Henry "Hank" Rutherford Hill is a tall, strict, and serious father and husband.
