The Main MackDaddy Of OKC: 5 Reasons Alabaster Jones Is The Most Iconic King Of The Hill Minor Character (and Will He Return In The Revival?)

• minute read
Contents

Few minor characters in the history of animated television have left an impact as disproportionate to their screen time as Alabaster Jones from *King of the Hill*. This flamboyant, smooth-talking "Main MackDaddy of OKC" appeared in just one episode, yet he remains one of the most quotable, recognizable, and hilariously out-of-place figures in the conservative suburban landscape of Arlen, Texas. His enduring popularity is a testament to the show's brilliant writing and, crucially, the unforgettable celebrity voice actor who brought him to life: Snoop Dogg.

As of December 22, 2025, fan discussions are buzzing with anticipation about the upcoming *King of the Hill* revival. The question on everyone's mind is whether this legendary pimp will make a triumphant, or perhaps "legit," return to the small screen. His single appearance remains a cultural touchstone, perfectly encapsulating the comedic clash between Hank Hill’s rigid worldview and the chaotic, unexpected realities of the world outside Strickland Propane.

Alabaster Jones: Character Biography and Profile

Alabaster Jones is one of the most memorable one-off characters in *King of the Hill*, primarily known for his role in the Season 5 episode, "Ho, Yeah!" His profile is a fascinating blend of the ridiculous and the surprisingly grounded, a hallmark of Mike Judge's storytelling.

  • Full Name: Alabaster Jones
  • Nickname/Title: The Main MackDaddy of OKC (Oklahoma City)
  • First & Only Appearance: "Ho, Yeah!" (Season 5, Episode 13), aired February 18, 2001.
  • Voice Actor: Calvin Broadus Jr., better known as the legendary rapper, Snoop Dogg.
  • Occupation: Pimp/Mack (Professionally, he refers to himself as a "talent manager" or "businessman").
  • Key Relationship: Tammi Duvall (former "employee," voiced by Renée Zellweger).
  • Signature Look: Flamboyant, including a bright purple suit, large platform shoes (which Hank still towers over), and a distinctive hat.
  • Defining Conflict: He travels to Arlen, Texas, to retrieve Tammi from the Hills' house after she attempts to leave the profession, leading to the climactic confrontation with Hank Hill.
  • Catchphrase: "Allow me to introduce myself... Alabaster Jones... the Main MackDaddy of OKC."

The character’s name itself—Alabaster Jones—is a comedic juxtaposition, pairing a word for a pure, white mineral (Alabaster) with a common surname (Jones), setting the stage for the episode's central, hilarious misunderstanding.

The Episode That Launched a Legend: "Ho, Yeah!"

The episode "Ho, Yeah!" is widely regarded as one of the essential, funniest, and most awkward episodes in the entire *King of the Hill* run. The entire plot is a masterclass in situational comedy, revolving around Hank Hill’s complete and utter obliviousness to the world of prostitution.

The Accidental Pimp and the Cadillac

The chaos begins when Hank, in his typical well-meaning but naive fashion, attempts to help Tammi Duvall, a prostitute who is briefly staying with the Hill family. Hank is completely unaware of Tammi's true profession, believing her to be a struggling waitress or perhaps a "businesswoman." The situation is compounded when Hank is forced to drive a garishly pimped-out Cadillac, complete with a leopard-print interior, as a temporary work vehicle from Strickland Propane.

Hank’s combination of the flashy car, a new fedora-style hat, and his attempts to "manage" Tammi's schedule leads several people in Arlen to mistakenly believe that *Hank* is the new pimp in town—a "Ho Hank."

The Arrival of Alabaster Jones

The misunderstanding comes to a head with the dramatic arrival of Alabaster Jones. Jones, Tammi's actual pimp, drives from Oklahoma City to Arlen to reclaim his "property." The contrast between the two men is the comedic gold of the episode:

  • Hank Hill: The epitome of middle-class, conservative, propane-loving Texas life. He is horrified by the idea of being a pimp.
  • Alabaster Jones: The flamboyant, sharply-dressed, and confidently professional "MackDaddy," who views Hank as a rival encroaching on his territory.

The climax involves Hank, armed with a propane tank and his unwavering moral code, confronting Alabaster. The scene is hilarious because Alabaster, despite his intimidating demeanor, is genuinely confused by Hank's un-pimp-like behavior, while Hank is simply trying to defend his family and his home from a man he sees as a threat. The episode showcases Hank's surprising bravery when his home and moral principles are challenged.

The Enduring Legacy of Snoop Dogg's Voice Role

The primary reason Alabaster Jones achieved such iconic status is the casting of Snoop Dogg. At the time of the episode's airing in 2001, Snoop Dogg was already a cultural icon, and his smooth, instantly recognizable voice added a layer of surreal humor to the animated character.

A Surprising Choice

The character design for Alabaster Jones is deliberately ambiguous. While voiced by a prominent Black artist, the character is visually depicted as a light-skinned or white man, which was a source of discussion and surprise among fans. This unexpected casting and design choice further amplified the character's memorable nature, making him stand out even among the show's other celebrity guest voices, such as Matthew McConaughey and Johnny Depp.

A Masterpiece of Celebrity Cameo

Unlike many celebrity cameos that feel forced, Snoop Dogg's performance as Alabaster Jones is pitch-perfect. He delivers the character's lines with a professional, almost business-like air, which makes the absurdity of his profession and his confrontation with Hank Hill even funnier. The "Main MackDaddy of OKC" moniker and the character’s dialogue have become one of the most quoted parts of the entire series.

Will Alabaster Jones Return in the King of the Hill Revival?

The news of the *King of the Hill* revival has sparked intense debate among the fandom about which beloved minor characters should return. Alabaster Jones is consistently ranked high on the list of characters fans hope to see again.

Fan Speculation and Hopes

The latest discussions, as of late 2025, show a strong desire for Alabaster’s return, with some fans even suggesting creative new paths for the character. One popular fan theory is that Alabaster Jones will have "gone legit" in the years since his last appearance. Potential new storylines include:

  • The Businessman: Alabaster has moved on from his old life and now owns a legitimate, high-end business in Oklahoma City, perhaps even a rival propane company, which would bring him back into direct conflict with Hank Hill.
  • A Cameo with a Twist: A brief, surprising appearance where he runs into Hank at an unrelated event, perhaps at a professional convention or a family outing, and the two have an awkward, unspoken recognition.
  • A New Voice? Given the long gap and the nature of voice acting, there is some speculation about whether Snoop Dogg would reprise the role, though fans are adamant that the character himself should not be cut, regardless of the voice actor.

The inclusion of Alabaster Jones in the new series would not only be a nod to the show's golden age but also a fresh opportunity to explore how the world has changed around the Hills. His character, as a figure of chaos and the unexpected, is the perfect foil to the stable, predictable life of Hank Hill, and his return would undoubtedly create another classic, unforgettable episode.
