Cartoon: Native American "John Redcorn"

The Best of John Redcorn
What is real US history?
King of the Hill by Mike Judge of Beavis & Butt-Head fame, had a Native American character. He was smooth and charming but, sadly, engaged sexual misconduct with Hank's clueless neighbor's wife.

Their son is being raised by the wrong dad, and the mother-cheater is pulling the wool of her husband's eyes, which happens in about 10% of childbirths in America. To think of all the readers who do not know they raised someone else's child. But here we laugh at it and call "John Redcorn" a ladies' man.
Hypersexual stereotype?

Tall dark handsome objects of white male fear?
Hank is the "king of the hill," and his best friend is Dale Gribble (voiced by Johnny Hardwick), a Caucasian chain-smoking, balding, conspiracy-theorist neighbor.

As a result of his paranoia, Dale does not trust the government or the system but is blind to what's happening right in front of him. He kills for work at his own pest control business, Dale's Dead Bug, and is a licensed bounty hunter and president of the Arlen Gun Club. He is married to Nancy Hicks-Gribble (voiced by Ashley Gardner), a weather reporter and later an anchorwoman for Channel 84 News.

Joseph went from normal to creep (reddit.com)
Dale and Nancy's only child, Native American Joseph (voiced by Brittany Murphy and later by Breckin Meyer), is best friends with Hank's son, Bobby Hill. He becomes somewhat girl-crazy as he grows up.

Joseph is the result of Nancy's 14-year-long sexual affair with John Redcorn (voiced by Victor Aaron and later by Jonathan Joss), a Native American healer who has given Nancy "therapeutic" massages for her "headaches."
