List of King of the Hill episodes

Church Hopping is the 197th episode of the FOX animated series King of the Hill.

[edit] Plot

When the Hill family's regular seat in church is taken by a new family, the Hills leave their small Methodist Church and go on a search for a new parish to call home.

In the first church, most of the parishioners are drunk and crazy. The next one is most likely a Roman Catholic church in Spanish. The third is made completely of steel and rock and roll music can be heard. The fourth one is a MegaChurch, which the Hills stay with.

While getting coffee at the MegaChurch store, they see Reverend Stoup, the reverend of their previous church, where she is grabbing a cup of coffee, words are exchanged. The Reverend is shocked to see that the Hills are church shopping, and hopes that it isn't over the pew issue. They assure her that it is indeed the issue, first the Reverend wouldn't take Peggy's idea for microphoned sermons, now this. Reverend Stroup storms out, exclaiming that the new family has sat in their pew every week since their absence, and they sing, too.

The Hills take a trolley to the massive church, which they are impressed with at first. The Hills receive much attention and are given extra duties.

After a while, when their phone is constantly ringing for their help with the church, and activities every day, the Hills go to their old church and tell the family in their old seat about the MegaChurch. The family exits the church and the Hills got their old seat and church back.
