Brittany Murphy's voice as Luanne Platter on King of the Hill is the work I recognize her thru the most. To me, Luanne was the best character on the show. Luanne had so much genuine personality, and unlike the other characters, was not locked into a static time period. She evolved from an awkward beauty student to a hair stylist with a husband and daughter. It's a shame that her character got so little screen time during King of the Hill's latter run, and that Brittany's role as Luanne was not acknowledged upon her passing. (It was her longest-lasting role, at 13 years.) She played the role so well that if they ever made a live-action King of the Hill movie, she could've played Luanne like a glove on a hand. The series ended right before she died. Four leftover episodes that fell into syndication did not feature Luanne, and were actually made before the official series finale. The timing couldn't have been more perfect, because I cannot imagine the show continuing without Luanne. Attachments:

Welcome to the board, Luanne fan. My dad worked on King of the Hill, in the animation dept. He doesnt remember ever meeting Brittany or any of the voice artists, even though sometimes he does run into them. Not on this show tho. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, and again welcome.
