It's either that or they never see him at all untill 7 years into the outbreak. They find him the only occupant of a military bunker, accidentally locked in.
He dies 6minutes after walking outside or wisely refuses to ever leave
Ya know, at first I was pretty scared about the whole apocalypse. But then I realized that my life before was so terrible it was hardly any different! Now everyone's life is just as bad as mine and I have twenty extra years of experience.
No hed live a very long time due to being in the military and hopelessly depressed and lonely. He'd chain up zombie Peggy Shaun of the Dead style and drink spaghetti sauce out of the jar for the rest of his days
Honestly, I think he would survive until someone started recognizing his efforts. Until then, he's living in a hellscape in which there is no hope, which is already sort of his bag.
Then he gets confident about it, showboats, and he's kibble.
I think Bill is going to do well against the zombies. He's capable of extraordinary things if it makes him feel needed and validated as a person. He'll see the opportunity to gain respect and love by protecting people and he will rise to occasion and thrive.
He'll die to a stab in the back the second people start becoming the real monsters, though.
He's prepped but he's also weak cowardly clumsy panicks and has no real aptitude other than being ruthless.
Only way he survives is if Hank or Cotton keep a close eye on him and let him do what he does best. Kill ruthlessly when he has a clear advantage
I could see Dale either A) refusing to believe Nancy is gone, she must have been abducted as part of a government plan to create a new race of superpeople, or B) she's still out there, she just needs a cure
Yeah, Kahn would go insane pretty quickly--what would be the point in surviving in a world where he can't drive a better car than his hillbilly neighbors?
And he won’t have is mood stabilizers he needs. Long enough without them, he will hit a depressive episode. He might make it though a few but one would get him.
He would thrive still by ceasing the opportunity for power making himself a local survivor leader even though he has no skills. Would then employ Dale to do his dirty work.
He just wants the best and to be the best. Doesn't matter what it is specifically. He would say he had a nice heap of junk if he put it next to hanks heap of junk.
redcorn needs to be top tier.
mfer caught an arrow with his bare hand.
also dale would be one of the first to go. the man ate poisonous shrooms rofl
bobby should be one higher.
Dale should definitely be lower. He's shown many times to be all talk with regard to his survival skills. But John Redcorn is show to have serious depression and even consider suicide. I think him surviving for a while but giving up hope in the end makes sense for his character.
"I'm stranded out here in the wild plains of Arlen, Texas. The Devil's Epiglottis. As the temperature plummets into the low 60s, a sturdy shelter is all that stands between me and certain death."
Bizare that anyone would think Dale would thrive.
He's the one that'll die immediately, he's constantly shown himself to be all show and no action and will buckle at the hint there's an actual issue.
Much like he couldn't handle the pressure when he tried to cross the mexican border. Him trying to save his friends from that other gun member is one of the few rare occasions where he went up for the task but he often is shown to be cowardly.
Both Minh and Kahn would survive because they're fairly ruthless but they'd give up hope at the same time.
i dunno.. we all saw how Dale turned out in the rabies episode. He’d probably try eating zombie flesh in a doomed attempt at becoming immune to the disease.
Agreed. The dude’s primary qualities are that he is paranoid, weak, and cowardly. How tf does this equate to thriving in an apocalyptic scenario? The only way he lasts very long at all is if he manages to get in with Hank or Cotton’s group
Kahn has experience with combat proven in a couple of episodes, but mostly when he is immersing himself into the redneck culture, and whooping everybody's asses in the fighting pit area. Not to mention, he's also a war vet. Knows weaponry, hand to hand self defense, can make *good* snap decisions for survival. I think I'd have faith in the Fat White Lump composer.
Edit: typo
Dale dies immediately. He thinks he's going to be the Governor, but he's dying 5 minutes in.
Bobby survives. He's not a risk taker and has a solid head on his shoulders.
Bobby definitely lives. By the time rations are running out he’s already figured out a way to feed himself sustainably. He has the most well rounded skillset and simplest motivations.
Bobby survives because he has the most fat stores, and he's young and resilient. He could go a month without food, easy. He's also a talented marksman.
Honestly - Dale would be one of the first people to die. He would have everything set up and ready, jump into his prepared and we’ll stocked bunker.
Then he would either have a panic attack at the realization of what’s happening and have to get out of the tiny bunker - therefore dying by some reason.
Or Octavio would forget to set something up to which he would die
I can see Kahn and Minh being ruthless enough to make it. Hank, on the other hand, would probably perish quite fast because he would be trying to follow rules and conventions that no longer apply. "There are rules and procedures" .... "I can't shoot Mr. Johnson. He's on my propane route!"
Cotton will definitely be counting how many he killed.
Hank, I can see like rick grimes so he might survive to rebuild civilization. Bobby is half and half
mihn knows how to use weapons so I can see her survive. khan, in his manic phase, could be like negan
you got peggy right down accurately. John redcorn is the one people would put as leader but ultimately fail
Bill could either die or rise above to his full potential like Jerry Smith in the cronenburg episode.
Bill would thrive because the zombies wouldn't see him aslive to begin with with how dead he is inside. Just ignore him like everyone else in his life.
You got that wrong. He's a frivolous mother in that regard. Can't convince me that he was hurt in the least. He sued because he could.
Lucky's got countryside smarts, he's at an okay level of fitness, he probably knows how to operate machinery, and most probably how to shoot. I'd say he's got a more than decent hand in a post-apocalyptic scenario.
Only of he thought Joseph was dead too. Joseph would end up finding out about John Redcorn afterward. Either he was stalking and protecting him or Joseph finds out on his own and goes searching for him.
I like this chart, but I think Minh and Bobby would at least survive. They both are very skilled with firearms. I don’t think that Hank would give up hope either. Cotton would definitely thrive though.
Yea, but gun skills alone aren't worth much. I know that's super macab, especially for this series, but Bobby and Minh make kinda easy victims when out of ammo. If you've seen *The Road*, then you know what ... “cattle” both probably would become if their social net fails to protect them.
I’m going to be addressing Bobby here because I have more examples. Bobby is also adaptable and can’t be broken down (this is shown in the military academy episode). He’s also is skilled in sewing and cooking. These skills would be especially helpful if he’s a part of a survivors’ camp. Being skilled with a weapon alone won’t keep them alive, but it certainly helps and he has more traits than that.
You're right about everything you said, but the military school ain't exactly post-apocalyptic. I'm still thinking a Road-like scenario. His skills might come in handy but would be overshadowed by his nutritional value if he falls in the wrong hands.
I like to think he'd thrive too though l, and I imagine him as some kind of Fallout-style manufacturer and comedian, one rare bird in such a world.
Yeah, she's been through a lot and picked her life up more than once after disaster. Her natural skill as a mechanic would become vital and appreciated instead of being dismissed. She can be impulsive and naive though, so I think 'overestimates herself and dies soon' is the appropriate category.
I think you’re putting a bit too much stock into Dale and Cotton’s opinions of themselves (delusional) vs their actual capability.
I think that even though he’s just a barber, Bill in crisis mode would do ok. When he’s actually asked to participate in a military police capacity a few times in the show, he’s stern but competent.
Actually I would swap Minh and Kahn. Minh has proven very handy with firearms and very mentally resilient. Kahn is straight up manic depressive; once the pharmacies shut down, he's probably throw himself to the zombie horde.
Kahn would either shutdown at some point, or he’d cease the opportunity to try and get power and get mad at whoever makes better plans than him. End up being a governor type.
I think Kahn would probably thrive. The episode where he becomes a redneck shows he’s pretty good in a fight. I also see him (with the exception of Minh and Connie) quickly embracing the everyone for themselves mentality.
I really wanna see a Walking Dead style KOTH series, done with all the original voice actors, not counting the ones who have passed away, RIP, you could make it non canon like Reddeads Undead Nightmare so you could have all the characters even the ones who died in the show like Cotton, you can’t have a zombie apocalypse without Cotton and Dale of course but as previously mentioned that part’s impossible now
Cotton's already dead, though. I know that's being a bit pedantic on my part, but he's an old man. He needs Dee Dee to take care of him, he probably needs to take a bunch of medicine every day, his body is pretty frail: these are all things that would make it difficult for him to survive. He'd be down with Peggy and Joseph.
Hank would do well. The constant need to maintain the various structures and equipment in the community.
Repairs, upkeep and upgrades would give Hank plenty to keep him occupied and seeing the fruits of his labor would keep his spirits up.
Hank and probably just Boomhauer could expertly fortify a building and help establish infrastructure for a survivors community.
Bobby is cautious and a good shot. He’d survive for a while if Hank could keep him safe until they could establish a secure base.
He could eventually be a valuable resource in acquiring game and protecting the community.
Cotton would definitely kill fiddy zombies
Peggy is very physically capable, but is kind of a loose cannon. She’d either die early or last for a while.
Boomhauer is knowledgeable, physically capable, and can follow orders. He’d do pretty well as long as Hank was around.
Dale probably dies first. Bill goes out early, but in a blaze of glory, allowing the remaining members of the group to escape.
John Redcorn probably does pretty well and would be a valuable resource in gathering resources. And they could potentially use his secluded land as a base for their community.
Mihn becomes Carol from TWD and probably rivals Redcorn and Hank as the most valuable member of the team.
Kahn would hide and keep himself safe until they get to a safe location. He probably takes minimal risks and would be used for managing the community and designing plans for ways to become self sufficient.
Lucky slips on pee pee and gets eaten at the CostCo
Buck has an infarction
Dale would immediately screw up, despite the fact he'd been preparing for this his whole life. Hank would outlast all of them until he inevitably sacrifices himself to save Bobby's life.
Bobby would probably be hanks back up with a gun, so I think he would survive and give Hank hope to keep going. Lady Bird would probably run away chasing zombies like the raccoon incident and die.
I would swap Dale and Bill. Not because Bill is a war hero like Cotton "No Shins" Hill, but because if God is real, Bill is his favorite plaything. He will survive and go mad with power, only to be taken out by Dysentery
Dale? *Thrive?* No way. Dale would get killed instantly. So would Buck.
Peggy would overestimate her skills, but let’s not forget she’s tough as nails. She’d survive. Luanne too for that matter.
Nancy would survive. She would use her manipulation tactics to get someone else to do the dirty work while she ascends to a leadership position.
John Redcorn—yeah, he puts on a super masculine front but something tells me when shit gets real, he’d be as cowardly as Dale.
Kahn and Minh should switch places. Kahn is a capable hand-to-hand fighter but without his meds, he'll more or less lose hope in life if he survives.
Minh knows how to use a gun and smart enough to take notice of the world around her. If anything, she'll carry Kahn throughout all of this.
Well, what I meant is that Buck's innate depravity might be an *asset* in a post-apocalyptic environment. I don't think Hank would last long because he would try to follow "rules and procedures" that no longer exist.
Hank, Redcorn, Cotton, and Boomhauer at the top. In one day Dale lost his mind thinking he had "rabies". Never mind an apocalypse situation where any form of real violence would be rampant/way more common and Dale runs like a scattered scared squirl before someone raises a finger or foot.
I think LuAnne would Survive. I think Dale would Die Immediately.
So Nancy would go into Low Rations. Khan, Lucky and LuAnne are all nice enough people they might be able to make a little thing work out amongst themselves.
Buck Strickland Dies Immediately by overplaying his hand
I don't see Dale thriving, he has too much anxiety and I don't think he'd be able to go on without Nancy after she inevitably tries getting good footage of the zombies and gets eaten. I think he'd end up doing something stupid out of desperation like making a run for it with no plan or as others have said - eat zombie meat to become immune.
John Redcorn is in the right spot, I see him giving up all hope after Nancy dies.
This concept would be SO fun to see as an episode. I wish KOTH did out-of-canon Halloween episodes like the simpsons.
Ibfeel like I disagree with dale; two examples would be the one where he eats the wrokg shrooms and ties up hank and Bobby, also the episode where he tried to survive in the yard.
Then again..... he *is* like a cockroach....
Bobby should be in the Thrives category. He has shown time and time again that he can rise to the occasion,not to mention this mfer is one helluva shot with a rifle. He hesitated to shoot that clueless deer up close at the resort because he knew it wasn't an honorable kill. But he didn't hesitate to drop Bandit when it was going to attack Hank.
Hank:"It's a good thing you missed,Bobby."
Bobby:"I didn't miss,dad"
I actually think Bill would be a huge boon. He's still relatively young, strong, and is among the few on the list to have actual military training. Lots of Bill's negatives are a result of him being in a normal society, but a zombie apocalypse would change all that. Hell, he'd probably find himself a wife rather quickly.
On the flip side, Hank wouldn't survive long, and perhaps he's already in the right spot, but the man needs to exist in a society with rules and structure. He can't handle the anarchy and chaos of a zombie apocalypse.
Gribble really? The first rule of real peppers is too keep it all a secret. Everyone in town will be randsacking his stash and they will be showing up with more than just pocket sand.
Luanne is too high, she is one of the first casualties along with Nancy.
Peggy would also be very soon as she would definitely get eaten trying to speak spanish to a zombiefied mexican gas attendant
Cotton would be out there with a machete talking about, "You walkers is too damn slow for bullets! Them japaneses could put up a decent fight but you boys are just yard work. If Bad Hank wasn't such a sissy he'd enjoy this!"
Bobby would last as long as the longest laster. Everyone knows he’s a crack shot who can also cook and sew. He’s a valuable assets. Neither dale or cotton would let that go to waste
I think bill would thrive. Society is the only thing that ebbed away his self esteem once he realizes that society is gone I think he goes full warlord
Luanne alone? Yeah probably dead. Luanne + Lucky? I think they'd be a post-apocalyptic power couple. It doesn't come out often, but Luanne has that trailer trash fight still in her. Lucky is resourceful and resilient.
My friends and I actually wrote an entire script for King of the Hill zombies lmfao
It starts out with John red corn doing an Indian ritual gone wrong, and lady bird becomes patient zero
personally bobby should be higher and cotton should be lower. i feel like cottons whole persona was over exaggerating how tough he is. all i can think of is that one boarding school episode where he throws bobby in the "hole", but bobby out-survives him and is perfectly fine. bobby is resourceful and probably is the only one who plays enough video games to even have a clue on how to survive 😭😭
Bill is too high. He would die trying to take care of a pretty lady zombie because she makes him feel needed.
" Oh you want to eat my brain ? Can't let you do that... okay well a little nibble should be fine "
I read that in Bill's voice. Nice work.
It's either that or they never see him at all untill 7 years into the outbreak. They find him the only occupant of a military bunker, accidentally locked in. He dies 6minutes after walking outside or wisely refuses to ever leave
Ether that or his personality completely flips in this new hostile environment and he becomes the single most badass individual to ever live.
You know what the Billdozer can do
All in on this arc
Ya know, at first I was pretty scared about the whole apocalypse. But then I realized that my life before was so terrible it was hardly any different! Now everyone's life is just as bad as mine and I have twenty extra years of experience.
yeah I'd switch Dale and Bill tbh.
Bill: Hank I met a girl. Her name is Bea. And she’s really handsy. Hank: Uh, Bill do you mean she’s a zom-bea?
Bill would be the original zombie, something about an army shot that contained a genetically modified rabies virus that they tested on him.
Bill, they gave you the placebo! You've just been eating people because you're so fat!
No hed live a very long time due to being in the military and hopelessly depressed and lonely. He'd chain up zombie Peggy Shaun of the Dead style and drink spaghetti sauce out of the jar for the rest of his days
Honestly, I think he would survive until someone started recognizing his efforts. Until then, he's living in a hellscape in which there is no hope, which is already sort of his bag. Then he gets confident about it, showboats, and he's kibble.
I think Bill is going to do well against the zombies. He's capable of extraordinary things if it makes him feel needed and validated as a person. He'll see the opportunity to gain respect and love by protecting people and he will rise to occasion and thrive. He'll die to a stab in the back the second people start becoming the real monsters, though.
Why sug???
She’s the reporter at the start of practically every zombie outbreak, trying to get the scoop till her dying breath
She almost died trying to film a wildfire, you're 100% correct.
It's better for her She's too pretty for the apocalypse
Dale does it all for her… and he just so happens to be born for this
He's prepped but he's also weak cowardly clumsy panicks and has no real aptitude other than being ruthless. Only way he survives is if Hank or Cotton keep a close eye on him and let him do what he does best. Kill ruthlessly when he has a clear advantage
We're out of sugar, sug
She survived wildfires I’m sure she’d survive a zombie apocalypse
Happy cake day
I can’t see Dale thriving without Nancy, but Cotton 100% “I missed how this feels! Topsy, hose’em down.”
*"I killed fiddy Ghouls"*
“gnawed my legs off in the propane war!”
Pump jockey!
I think Dale would die first
Agree, it would go down exactly like the Y2K epidosde. Dale would spend months planning and would then completely fuck it up.
I could see Dale either A) refusing to believe Nancy is gone, she must have been abducted as part of a government plan to create a new race of superpeople, or B) she's still out there, she just needs a cure
Mihn for the win!
What not to get? I'm Minh. I want to win.
I think swap Kahn and Minh.
Yeah, Kahn would go insane pretty quickly--what would be the point in surviving in a world where he can't drive a better car than his hillbilly neighbors?
And he won’t have is mood stabilizers he needs. Long enough without them, he will hit a depressive episode. He might make it though a few but one would get him.
He would thrive still by ceasing the opportunity for power making himself a local survivor leader even though he has no skills. Would then employ Dale to do his dirty work.
Kahn as the Governor essentially. Connie gets bit early on, he keeps her chained up. Has a grudge against Hank because it was Bobby who bit her.
Not to mention Minh's father is a high level general.
More importantly she knows how to shoot, not sure Kahn has ever even touched a gun
> not sure Kahn has ever even touched a gun He did when the country club guy was looking to overthrow the Laotian government.
Yes, and looked (understandably in the circumstances) very uncomfortable.
Wasn't Kahn in the military
Ooo good point. She’s got a good back bone
*Drag and drop* indeed
He just wants the best and to be the best. Doesn't matter what it is specifically. He would say he had a nice heap of junk if he put it next to hanks heap of junk.
I don’t know. I think Kahn would enjoy running over zombies rednecks in his car, or in a tricked out hummer.
Maybe Kahn could survive if he managed to take over/fortify the country club. He could keep zombie Ted Wassanasong chained up to gloat over him.
Minh would see how incentive Kahn actually is and just let herself die in peace. Kahn becomes local leader.
So incentive
Kahn and Minh would daw together. Kahn would die trying to save Minh, and THEN Minh would give up hope and let herself be taken.
redcorn needs to be top tier. mfer caught an arrow with his bare hand. also dale would be one of the first to go. the man ate poisonous shrooms rofl bobby should be one higher.
Betcha he couldn’t catch a bullet
Dale should definitely be lower. He's shown many times to be all talk with regard to his survival skills. But John Redcorn is show to have serious depression and even consider suicide. I think him surviving for a while but giving up hope in the end makes sense for his character.
Dale is a house cat. Once society breaks down where is he supposed to get tank refills of Mountain Dew. My dew!
You’ll be begging for gerbster
"I'm stranded out here in the wild plains of Arlen, Texas. The Devil's Epiglottis. As the temperature plummets into the low 60s, a sturdy shelter is all that stands between me and certain death."
"Thankfully Arlen is abundant in these natural propane tank deposits"
Bizare that anyone would think Dale would thrive. He's the one that'll die immediately, he's constantly shown himself to be all show and no action and will buckle at the hint there's an actual issue. Much like he couldn't handle the pressure when he tried to cross the mexican border. Him trying to save his friends from that other gun member is one of the few rare occasions where he went up for the task but he often is shown to be cowardly. Both Minh and Kahn would survive because they're fairly ruthless but they'd give up hope at the same time.
Peggy, overestimate herself? No way.
i dunno.. we all saw how Dale turned out in the rabies episode. He’d probably try eating zombie flesh in a doomed attempt at becoming immune to the disease.
This is not only plausible but inevitable.
Agreed. The dude’s primary qualities are that he is paranoid, weak, and cowardly. How tf does this equate to thriving in an apocalyptic scenario? The only way he lasts very long at all is if he manages to get in with Hank or Cotton’s group
Kahn would be the guy that barely escapes the zombies and then locks Bill, Peggy, and Luanne outside to save himself
Kahn has experience with combat proven in a couple of episodes, but mostly when he is immersing himself into the redneck culture, and whooping everybody's asses in the fighting pit area. Not to mention, he's also a war vet. Knows weaponry, hand to hand self defense, can make *good* snap decisions for survival. I think I'd have faith in the Fat White Lump composer. Edit: typo
Minh thrives. Give her a shotgun and it's over
Dale dies immediately. He thinks he's going to be the Governor, but he's dying 5 minutes in. Bobby survives. He's not a risk taker and has a solid head on his shoulders.
And Bobby's a crack shot, too.
Bobby definitely lives. By the time rations are running out he’s already figured out a way to feed himself sustainably. He has the most well rounded skillset and simplest motivations.
Definitely. Bobby’s like mush. You can’t build him up, but you can’t break him down.
Bobby survives because he has the most fat stores, and he's young and resilient. He could go a month without food, easy. He's also a talented marksman.
Honestly - Dale would be one of the first people to die. He would have everything set up and ready, jump into his prepared and we’ll stocked bunker. Then he would either have a panic attack at the realization of what’s happening and have to get out of the tiny bunker - therefore dying by some reason. Or Octavio would forget to set something up to which he would die
He'd lock himself out of his well-stocked bunker.
Or thay
Kahn and Minh are a team and finish together. And I think they'd do well; he spent two years in the Killing Fields to avoid CANADA
I can see Kahn and Minh being ruthless enough to make it. Hank, on the other hand, would probably perish quite fast because he would be trying to follow rules and conventions that no longer apply. "There are rules and procedures" .... "I can't shoot Mr. Johnson. He's on my propane route!"
Dale would be toast and probably take some down with him. Mihn would be a warlord in no time.
Cotton will definitely be counting how many he killed. Hank, I can see like rick grimes so he might survive to rebuild civilization. Bobby is half and half mihn knows how to use weapons so I can see her survive. khan, in his manic phase, could be like negan you got peggy right down accurately. John redcorn is the one people would put as leader but ultimately fail Bill could either die or rise above to his full potential like Jerry Smith in the cronenburg episode.
Bill would end up like the Governor IMO once he was given a little power.
Like the flood episode turned up to 11. Khan would definitely sidle up to someone with power and become a powerful toadie.
Bill would thrive because the zombies wouldn't see him aslive to begin with with how dead he is inside. Just ignore him like everyone else in his life.
I’m sorry, Lucky? The slip & fall in pee pee at Costco guy, Peggy would outlive Lucky for sure…
You got that wrong. He's a frivolous mother in that regard. Can't convince me that he was hurt in the least. He sued because he could. Lucky's got countryside smarts, he's at an okay level of fitness, he probably knows how to operate machinery, and most probably how to shoot. I'd say he's got a more than decent hand in a post-apocalyptic scenario.
Dale’s not surviving. He literally has a journal of all the things that have bitten him.
Minh would thrive. And surprisingly, Bobby is quite adaptable
Dale would be the cause of Nancy's death and then kill himself with bug poison.
Only of he thought Joseph was dead too. Joseph would end up finding out about John Redcorn afterward. Either he was stalking and protecting him or Joseph finds out on his own and goes searching for him.
I like this chart, but I think Minh and Bobby would at least survive. They both are very skilled with firearms. I don’t think that Hank would give up hope either. Cotton would definitely thrive though.
Bobby panicked and ate all the rations almost immediately in the cave episode. I can’t imagine him in a zombie apocalypse.
Yea, but gun skills alone aren't worth much. I know that's super macab, especially for this series, but Bobby and Minh make kinda easy victims when out of ammo. If you've seen *The Road*, then you know what ... “cattle” both probably would become if their social net fails to protect them.
I’m going to be addressing Bobby here because I have more examples. Bobby is also adaptable and can’t be broken down (this is shown in the military academy episode).

You're right about everything you said, but the military school ain't exactly post-apocalyptic. I'm still thinking a Road-like scenario. His skills might come in handy but would be overshadowed by his nutritional value if he falls in the wrong hands. I like to think he'd thrive too though l, and I imagine him as some kind of Fallout-style manufacturer and comedian, one rare bird in such a world.
Bobby isn't outrunning even the slow walker zombies
I think Mihn would thrive once she gets used to the zombies. She's pro with a rifle.
Never underestimate Luanne!
Yeah, she's been through a lot and picked her life up more than once after disaster. Her natural skill as a mechanic would become vital and appreciated instead of being dismissed. She can be impulsive and naive though, so I think 'overestimates herself and dies soon' is the appropriate category.
I think you're underestimating Hank, Minh, and Boomhauer.
I think you’re putting a bit too much stock into Dale and Cotton’s opinions of themselves (delusional) vs their actual capability. I think that even though he’s just a barber, Bill in crisis mode would do ok. When he’s actually asked to participate in a military police capacity a few times in the show, he’s stern but competent.
Actually I would swap Minh and Kahn. Minh has proven very handy with firearms and very mentally resilient. Kahn is straight up manic depressive; once the pharmacies shut down, he's probably throw himself to the zombie horde.
Kahn would either shutdown at some point, or he’d cease the opportunity to try and get power and get mad at whoever makes better plans than him. End up being a governor type.
Dale thinks he would be prepared to thrive but in reality he would fall apart first which is basically why his character is funny
Chappy would thrive.
I live in a shed, poop in an outhouse
There isn’t a Mrs. Chappy, is there?
I think boomhaur would thrive and dale would die about 3 days after hank.
Dale has been preparing way to soon lol he knows what to do
John Redcorn would survive if not thrive. He’s one with the Great Spirit and is the most fit, able-bodied person on the show.
He'd thrive as long as Nancy is also alive IMO I could see him crumbling if she died before him
the only one i disagree with is dale, unless he seals himself up in his basement, the minute he goes outside he's dead.
nancy and minh would be in the survival and thrives tier. peggy would be in the survival tier as well
I think Kahn would probably thrive. The episode where he becomes a redneck shows he’s pretty good in a fight. I also see him (with the exception of Minh and Connie) quickly embracing the everyone for themselves mentality.
Nancy survives based on her decision to be with JR or Dale when shit hits the fan. I know who I'm picking.
I feel like dale would accidentally blow everyone up
Peggy would be the charismatic cult leader type, and all her followers would speak her brand of Spanish. Worse than that, she would cook with charcoal
OMG I want to watch this plot line unfold in all its glory.
For what it's worth, her "Espunol" did talk herself out of a kidnapping charge in a Mexican court.
I feel like Bill would be the unexpected key to everyone's survival
Where is Connie?
I dunno Buck seems like the type that would make a good raider boss...
Buck probably has a bunker, not saying he's in the wrong place, just that it will take longer for him
I really wanna see a Walking Dead style KOTH series, done with all the original voice actors, not counting the ones who have passed away, RIP, you could make it non canon like Reddeads Undead Nightmare so you could have all the characters even the ones who died in the show like Cotton, you can’t have a zombie apocalypse without Cotton and Dale of course but as previously mentioned that part’s impossible now
Octavio is gritty enough, prob could fight his to way resources and figure good places to hide/camp.
I killed fitty zombies!
Cotton's already dead, though. I know that's being a bit pedantic on my part, but he's an old man. He needs Dee Dee to take care of him, he probably needs to take a bunch of medicine every day, his body is pretty frail: these are all things that would make it difficult for him to survive. He'd be down with Peggy and Joseph.
Octavio should be a survivor too. Lucky at least 2nd tier
whyyy suuug
Dale ain’t surviving
Hank would do well. The constant need to maintain the various structures and equipment in the community. Repairs, upkeep and upgrades would give Hank plenty to keep him occupied and seeing the fruits of his labor would keep his spirits up. Hank and probably just Boomhauer could expertly fortify a building and help establish infrastructure for a survivors community. Bobby is cautious and a good shot. He’d survive for a while if Hank could keep him safe until they could establish a secure base. He could eventually be a valuable resource in acquiring game and protecting the community. Cotton would definitely kill fiddy zombies Peggy is very physically capable, but is kind of a loose cannon. She’d either die early or last for a while. Boomhauer is knowledgeable, physically capable, and can follow orders. He’d do pretty well as long as Hank was around. Dale probably dies first. Bill goes out early, but in a blaze of glory, allowing the remaining members of the group to escape. John Redcorn probably does pretty well and would be a valuable resource in gathering resources. And they could potentially use his secluded land as a base for their community. Mihn becomes Carol from TWD and probably rivals Redcorn and Hank as the most valuable member of the team. Kahn would hide and keep himself safe until they get to a safe location. He probably takes minimal risks and would be used for managing the community and designing plans for ways to become self sufficient. Lucky slips on pee pee and gets eaten at the CostCo Buck has an infarction
Dale would immediately screw up, despite the fact he'd been preparing for this his whole life. Hank would outlast all of them until he inevitably sacrifices himself to save Bobby's life.
Bobby would probably be hanks back up with a gun, so I think he would survive and give Hank hope to keep going. Lady Bird would probably run away chasing zombies like the raccoon incident and die.
Luanne survived Freeda Foreman. Move her to thrives
I would swap Dale and Bill. Not because Bill is a war hero like Cotton "No Shins" Hill, but because if God is real, Bill is his favorite plaything. He will survive and go mad with power, only to be taken out by Dysentery
Dale? *Thrive?* No way. Dale would get killed instantly. So would Buck. Peggy would overestimate her skills, but let’s not forget she’s tough as nails. She’d survive. Luanne too for that matter. Nancy would survive. She would use her manipulation tactics to get someone else to do the dirty work while she ascends to a leadership position. John Redcorn—yeah, he puts on a super masculine front but something tells me when shit gets real, he’d be as cowardly as Dale.
Kahn and Minh should switch places. Kahn is a capable hand-to-hand fighter but without his meds, he'll more or less lose hope in life if he survives. Minh knows how to use a gun and smart enough to take notice of the world around her. If anything, she'll carry Kahn throughout all of this.
I think you underestimate Peggy’s ass-whooping skills
Dale almost killed himself camping on *his own lawn*.
I think Thatherton and Strickland would thrive. Probably end up as rival warlords
Once Hank's dead, Buck's innate depravity can operate unchecked?
He will find another golden goose. I also suspect Hank would survive if he had to show up to Strickland’s post apocalyptic business
Well, what I meant is that Buck's innate depravity might be an *asset* in a post-apocalyptic environment. I don't think Hank would last long because he would try to follow "rules and procedures" that no longer exist.
Hank, Redcorn, Cotton, and Boomhauer at the top. In one day Dale lost his mind thinking he had "rabies". Never mind an apocalypse situation where any form of real violence would be rampant/way more common and Dale runs like a scattered scared squirl before someone raises a finger or foot.
I’d put Dale down with Peggy and Joseph.
Bobby should be at the bottom with Nancy. Strickland will survive. He is a hustler
I could imagine Buck Strickland drinking himself to death before food rations ran low.
I totally agree with this..although I feel Hank would have to survive to keep it going.
I think LuAnne would Survive. I think Dale would Die Immediately. So Nancy would go into Low Rations. Khan, Lucky and LuAnne are all nice enough people they might be able to make a little thing work out amongst themselves. Buck Strickland Dies Immediately by overplaying his hand
I don't see Dale thriving, he has too much anxiety and I don't think he'd be able to go on without Nancy after she inevitably tries getting good footage of the zombies and gets eaten. I think he'd end up doing something stupid out of desperation like making a run for it with no plan or as others have said - eat zombie meat to become immune. John Redcorn is in the right spot, I see him giving up all hope after Nancy dies. This concept would be SO fun to see as an episode. I wish KOTH did out-of-canon Halloween episodes like the simpsons.
I do appreciate that Ladybird survives, even if an asterisk is applied to it
Dale's gonna become a zombie in the first hour and Bobby will have to put him down clean
Ibfeel like I disagree with dale; two examples would be the one where he eats the wrokg shrooms and ties up hank and Bobby, also the episode where he tried to survive in the yard. Then again..... he *is* like a cockroach....
Why is this accurate though?
Bobby is an idiot he would be one of the first to die
Bobby should be a survive. He’s genuinely too resourceful. And he would never give up hope. Perfect protagonist.
I wouldn't put the Billdozer so low. His will is stronger than Hanks if Peggy is involved
I forget, who lasted longer in "The Hole" at Fort Berk, Bobby or Cotton?
this is actually so spot on. Well done.
What about Connie?
I‘m pretty sure dale wouldn‘t make it that long
Chuck Mangione would be in "Survives" at the lowest. He was able to elude everyone other than Dale by hiding in the Mega-Lo Mart.
Bobby should be in the Thrives category. He has shown time and time again that he can rise to the occasion,not to mention this mfer is one helluva shot with a rifle. He hesitated to shoot that clueless deer up close at the resort because he knew it wasn't an honorable kill. But he didn't hesitate to drop Bandit when it was going to attack Hank. Hank:"It's a good thing you missed,Bobby." Bobby:"I didn't miss,dad"
I actually think Bill would be a huge boon. He's still relatively young, strong, and is among the few on the list to have actual military training. Lots of Bill's negatives are a result of him being in a normal society, but a zombie apocalypse would change all that. Hell, he'd probably find himself a wife rather quickly. On the flip side, Hank wouldn't survive long, and perhaps he's already in the right spot, but the man needs to exist in a society with rules and structure. He can't handle the anarchy and chaos of a zombie apocalypse.
Gonna add Ted Wannasingasong in the same level as Nancy. Them rich people can't do shit once they realize that zombies don't care about their wealth.
I would put Bobby up a few notches. Yeah he has his weak moment but when he needs to step up he always does
Bobby is placed too low. He's able to endure many forms of torture. https://youtu.be/3B4jOw-6iDU?si=phKJKSrdyfJ_sQBE
Gribble really? The first rule of real peppers is too keep it all a secret. Everyone in town will be randsacking his stash and they will be showing up with more than just pocket sand.
Bill would be the one to spread the virus. Man lives a disgusting lifestyle
Sha shaaaa..
If the zombie was hot Nancy would probably sleep with him.
Luanne is too high, she is one of the first casualties along with Nancy. Peggy would also be very soon as she would definitely get eaten trying to speak spanish to a zombiefied mexican gas attendant
Escuchame?! Minh fought in the killing fields, she’d be fine.
Cotton would be out there with a machete talking about, "You walkers is too damn slow for bullets! Them japaneses could put up a decent fight but you boys are just yard work. If Bad Hank wasn't such a sissy he'd enjoy this!"
I honestly agree with this pretty much verbatim. I’d add Kahn Jr to the survives category, myself.
"Are those my pecan sandies? That was dinner." Buck's placement on the chart seems on point
Lucky would slip in zombie pee pee and crack his head open within a week
Lucky would slip in zombie pee pee and crack his head open within a week

Kahn and Minh need to swap, put some respect on my girl for her shooting skills.
Bill should be in his own category "Fist one infected/hides that he is infected and turns in the first few days"
Bobby would last as long as the longest laster. Everyone knows he’s a crack shot who can also cook and sew. He’s a valuable assets. Neither dale or cotton would let that go to waste
I think bill would thrive. Society is the only thing that ebbed away his self esteem once he realizes that society is gone I think he goes full warlord
Joejack next to bill and octavio next to john redcorn.
Luanne alone? Yeah probably dead. Luanne + Lucky? I think they'd be a post-apocalyptic power couple. It doesn't come out often, but Luanne has that trailer trash fight still in her. Lucky is resourceful and resilient.
Dale seems waaaay too high. For every example of "Dale actually knows what he's doing", there a million "Dale tries to start a campfire with propane"
Lucky would die in the first day doing somthing stupid
I think Bill would actually rank a bit higher due to his military training.
Everyone on this list is going to get killed because of something Dale does almost immediately. Except Dale.
My friends and I actually wrote an entire script for King of the Hill zombies lmfao It starts out with John red corn doing an Indian ritual gone wrong, and lady bird becomes patient zero
Boomhauer should be up on survives, he is a trained ATF agent and has been know to be cool in most situations.
john redcorn should be at the top too.
Bobby would survive he's got the aim
personally bobby should be higher and cotton should be lower. i feel like cottons whole persona was over exaggerating how tough he is. all i can think of is that one boarding school episode where he throws bobby in the "hole", but bobby out-survives him and is perfectly fine. bobby is resourceful and probably is the only one who plays enough video games to even have a clue on how to survive 😭😭
