Armenian Mom! is an Armenian TV series based on King of the Hill. It chronicles the adventures of Bobby Hill as an adult after he married an Armenian, who is the Armenian mom. It pokes fun both at the media's love for ethnic diversity and at animated sitcoms. It has a vast amount of characters. Sometimes Grampa Hank is also seen. It is very controversial due to the appearance of the Q word. Politics are a major standing, too, as all the characters are grouped as being either conservative of liberal, and topics such as war on terror, gay marriage, alcoholism, and substance abuse have been addressed.
Characters
Robeson G. Hill---The overweight dad who, despite the title, is by far the most important character. He is thoroughly disappointed by his three children. He is also likely gay, something which has been shown in both King of the Hill and several more recent episodes of the show, especially from the 7th season. He enjoys drinking beer, playing golf, using the internet to look up photos of male sex organs, swearing, making fun of his neighbor Mr. Goldman, and doing other things of that sort. In a recent episode he was revealed to be a bastard by Hank, who was in turn a bastard. Political Standing:Conservative
Yanghes Hill---The title character, she hates her Southern husband and feels that her extended family are her only escape from her low-class lifestyle. She neglects her children, other than David, whom she over-protects and patronizes to an extreme level, because of his Armenian features. The character may also be a closet lesbian, just like Bobby, but has only shown this once. Political Standing:Socialist
David Hill age 15---A butt-ugly dumb teenager who is one of their three children. He says 'dude' a lot, and has amazingly gigantic genitalia, which is his only good point. He is considered "special" according to some tests made. Overly patronized by Yanghes. He is also quite homophobic, but unaware that his father may be a homosexual. Political Standing:Conservative
Sandra Hill age 13---An ugly telepathic mutant and daughter of Bobby and Yanghes. She tries to control her powers but it often does not work. She hangs with her friends Ashley and Ben, in something of a "loser croud". Extremely leftist and in support of world peace and Action Against Hunger (AAH), which Bobby thinks stands for "abusive Aussie husband". Parody of teenage superheros. Political Standing:Liberal
Tyler Hill age 10---A creepy weird dork. He always seems so mysterious, but the reason is because he is a serial killer. He is often viewed as being the smartest character, despite his age. He is school nerd and therefore he has suffered significantly, most of which he takes out on his innocent victims. None of his friends or family know he is an evil genius, but he thinks "They're all dumbos anyway!". Political Standing:Unknown
George the Butler---A thickly British-accented butler who seemingly disappeared after 2001. He seems to behave like Jeeves, and solves problems Bobby is too dumb to see the answer to. It is unknown how they can afford him. Political Standing:Conservative
Spot the Frog---Their talking pet frog, Spot is a creepy girly-man. He was hit by a truck in 2003. Previously a fan favorite. He normally wears pink, and, although he claims to be straight, his sexuality is often ambiguous. As a family pet, he is surprsingly loud, profane, and buffoonish. Seems to be sympathetic with most leftist causes. Political Standing:Liberal
Aplla'polusa---A freaky weird wimpy TROQ seeking shelter from Sir Robert McAlpine in the Hills' house. He is not a deported Tamaranian, and therefore he is often the brunt of "troq jokes". Portrayed as being possibly the wimpiest, most decadent character in the entire show, though he claims he is mild for a troq. Political Standing:Liberal
Hob Goblin---An alcoholic Scotsman who likes to chug down Scotch whisky with his buds Bobby and Scrotum-Head. He is a highlander, and is bigoted against lowland Scotsmen, as he revealed during the Highland Games. Political Standing:Conservative
Willy 'Scrotum-Head' Jackson---A sullen old geezer who finds his only enjoyment by drinking lots of good intoxicants. He claims to be 92, and was born in Auckland, though he has not inherited any Aucklandish traits. Slightly mentally ill. Political Standing:Unkown
Ben Hunt---A friend of Sandra who loves his Southern heritage and frequently sells moonshine to the Hills. He represents the 'bootlegging hick' who loves beer, girls, and barfights. About 37 years old, and a teacher at the school Sandra goes to. Seems to be based on Phil Cunio. Political Standing:Conservative
Ashley Nutsplumsballsboystestes---A typical shallow 'mall-girl' who is concerned merely with shopping and dates. Supposed friend of Sandra, though she is really only in it for the publicity of being friend of a "radioactive freak". Modeled after Barbara McStacey from JATTK. Political Standing:Liberal
Grampa Hank---Bobby's father who was main character of King of the Hill. Prone to ranting, having flashbacks, drinking beer, homophobia, and racism. Bobby seems not to like him too much, because of his senility and tendency to get in the way of his life. Political Standing:Conservative
Dale Gribble---Hank's last best friend after his wife died and Bill and Boomhauer left for something better. He's has not gotten past his former craziness, and suffers from chronic swearing, most of which goes uncensored (particularly in Litecoverian broadcast. Political Standing:Conservative
Captain Morgan---A pirate and a childrens' TV personality who advertises for his own drinks. He frequently says the Dreaded Q Word. Represents stereotypical American children's programming, much of which is beginning to have prfanity uncensored. Political Standing:Unknown
Sideshow Nick---An unhealthily short Guatemalan who is Morgan's sidekick. He usually ends up being thrown back into Guatemala by the end of the episode because he is in the US illegally. Has two sons, no wife to speak of, and indulges in liquor. Quit in 2001, but reappeared in the "future episode" as a police officer. Political Standing:Liberal
Dave n' Dan Habagedejos---Nicholas' possibly gay and troublemaking twin sons. They often assist Tyler in his evil quests. Seem to represent creator Mike Judge's possibly racist view of Hispanic children. They both have cyber-boyfriends from Litecoveria. Political Standing:Unknown
Larry France---Tyler's best friend, a dorky geek who is beaten up by bullies but, due to his incredible technology, he can freeze the bullies and violently abuse them. His surname, according to Judge, refers to his wimpiness. Despite all this, he is probably a Republican. Political Standing:Conservative

Rehes Tak'hanobhi---Yanghes' gehnguy father who plans to obliterate all Americans from the face of the earth. He stays Armenianized, and thinks Bobby is a load of crap. Yanghes always looks forward to him coming over so they can have a "Bobby Hill Roast". Political Standing:Socialist
Deh'ann Rahs---Rehes' cousin who is possibly the most stuck-up snobby character in the show. He died in 2004. He really stays Armenianized. Based on Rovoam from Bevin Bay. Political Standing:Socialist
I'hnedha Tenchel---Yanghes' poor, obese sister who is nearly all Americanized, much to the chagrin of Rehes. Her name is 'I Need to Tinkle' stuck together. Political Standing:Liberal
