It's been over 15 years since we said goodbye to Hank Hill and his family, but now, the King of the Hill is coming home! The long-awaited 14th season of the animated series will have a huge time jump, wherein a now-retired Hank and Peggy return to Arden, Texas, from Saudi Arabia. Despite Dale, Boomhauer and Bill welcoming them home, the pair seems to be struggling with some of the changes in Arden since they left, including fancier beer, all-gender restrooms and rideshare apps. Bobby seems to be thriving in Dallas as a chef for a Japanese and German fusion restaurant. Mike Judge, Kathy Najimy, Stephen Root, Pamela Adlon, and Lauren Tom are all reprising their roles in the King of the Hill reboot. Original series co-creators Mike Judge and Greg Daniels both serve as executive producers on the show. All 10 episodes of the new King of the Hill season will drop on Hulu this Monday, August 4. Here's what else you need to know about the King of the Hill reboot.
