[edit] The Complete Third Season

This is the third King of the Hill box set, released on December 28, 2004 with a list price of $39.98. It contains all twenty-five episodes from the third season (1998-1999) spread across three DVD-10s (double-sided, single layer).

The set features Dolby Surround 2.0 audio in English and Spanish, and is presented in full-frame, with optional closed captions and subtitles in English and Spanish.

After a four-month gap between seasons 1 and 2, this set was not released until 13 months after season two's release, in December 2004, after being initailly scheduled for spring of that year. This delay is thought to be due to issues relating to music rights, perhaps explaining this set's (and future sets') complete lack of bonus features and conversion to double-sided discs.
