'''KING OF TOWN:''' Phew!  

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ... but, they ''were'' eaten!  

'''KING OF TOWN:''' Oh, no!  What could have done such a thing? 
 
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Why don't you ask yourself, King?  ''{pokes King's belly with pointer}''

'''KING OF TOWN:''' ...Oh, yeah.  They were delicious!  ''{blushes and burps}'' 

''{Everyone laughs as we pan out of the castle onto a sheep grazing in the field.}''

'''KING OF TOWN:''' ''{cries}'' My sheep are missing!  My sheep are missing! ''[cries]''

== Commentary Transcript ==

'''Strong Bad does the commentary while the cartoon plays.'''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh, hello and welcome to The King of Town special edition DVD.  I am your host, America's number one son and sweetheart to all the ladies, Strong Bad.  You're probably wondering what I'm doing the commentary on this cartoon for, and it's because they didn't put me in the freakin' cartoon, so, the least they could do is let me make fun of it.  So, let's uh, let's begin.  

{Cartoon starts}

Okay, now, this guy does not belong in cartoons.  From what I understand, he's everybody's least favorite character, and I don't understand how he got his own freakin' cartoon, and I haven't even got... ''my'' own cartoon yet.  


Oh, and the special effects here; look at that piece of crap!  I mean, I really think that was a piece of crap tied to some strings... that they just... pulled up behind the mountains, you know...


And here comes mister prancy-time himself, Homestar Runner, to save the day.  Personally, I don't know what he's doing not wearing his hat, because, he looks kinda creepy whe—when he doesn't wear his baseball hat.  Or whatever that hat is, you got the propeller on it... I mean, I hate everything about that guy.


Oh, now this guy had some class.  The Blacksmith, that guy was a good guy.  I hung out with him after the cartoon; we had some good times.  Yeah, we—oh, and ''this'' freakin' guy, man, he STANK SO BAD! I mean...you know,  I would say that he smelled like crap, but that wouldn't go far enough enough.  Imagine the worst thing you ever smelled, and pretend that took a crap.  ''That's'' what he smelled like.  And this little guy, he gave me the creeps... I don't trust that guy any farther than I could throw him.  


Oh, and Homestar wearing the graduate cap... I'll tell you what, I mean, Homestar never graduated from anything in his life.  And, uh, that little X he just made... To tell you the truth, I don't think that he would ever be able to tell you that it was an X because I'm pretty sure he doesn't know the alphabet and I'm almost positive that he can't read, so.  Oh yeah, everyone has a good laugh...


And that place, the King of Town does not live in that castle! I can tell you that right now. I mean, like, he lives in like some two bedroom job next door to me.  It's kinda run down and creepy, actually.  Yeah, you don't want to go over there, man.

== Easter Eggs ==

*After the commentary, you can click the button on the King's answering machine.  At first, it says: "You have no new messages. Ever."  Click on the arrow and it says: "Nobody likes you."  Click again and it says: "You still have zero messages."  Click again and it says: "You have no friends."  Click again and it starts over.

*At the end of the olde version, you can click on the sheep to make it fly off behind the mountains.

*On the main DVD page, click on the mustache on the shield. After it moves aside, click on the brick that was under it to see the [[King of Town Intro]] and [[King Of Town Main Page|Main Page]] that was used for April 1, 2003.

== Fun Facts ==

=== Trivia ===
*The colors of the King of Town's crown are reversed compared to his crown's color scheme in all of his subsequent appearances.
=== Remarks ===
*In the commentary, Strong Bad saying that Homestar probably can't read is incorrect, for Homestar shows his reading and writing skills in the emails [[credit card]] and [[anything]]. Homestar's literacy is also tested in [[Arcade Game]].
*In the Olde version, we actually see the King of Town's mouth under the moustache when he belches.

=== Inside References ===
*[[The Hornblower]] plays the [[Theme Song Video|Homestar Runner Theme Song]] on the horn to call Homestar.
*The King of Town's [[Answering Machine|answering machine]] is the same type that [[Marzipan]] uses in the first eight installments of [[Marzipan's Answering Machine]].

=== Real-World References ===
*The DVD menu theme is reminiscent of the theme from the [[Wikipedia:King's Quest|King's Quest]] games.
