These days it seems like its only a matter of time before a show that we remember fondly gets a sequel or a continuation many years after it last aired. We saw that with shows like “Frasier”, “Night Court” and even “Mad About You” but its not as common with the animated series’ – until now. Yesterday, Hulu dropped the Official Trailer for the returning “King Of The Hill” and you can check that out down below along with the voice cast and some premise about the full series. Enjoy.
The Premise: King of the Hill depicts an “average” family and their lives in a typical American town. It documents the Hills’ day-to-day-lives in the small Texas town of Arlen, exploring themes such as parent-child relationships, friendship, loyalty, and justice.

Piercing Ken Thoughts: I really enjoyed the “King Of The Hill” series but I tell you what (in my best Hank Hill), I lost pace with it at some point and never managed to see it through its then final 13th Season back in 2010. At this point I don’t even remember when I dropped off and it was not for lack of interest and more from getting tied up and forgetting to program it on the VCR and all that. There were limited streaming options back then and shows like this had not yet made it over to the places we had. This trailer looks like the relaunch will be a hoot but I think I won’t be rushing to watch and instead will map out a plan to revisit from the beginning. Let’s see what happens. Now what do you all think about this? Chime in down below and let me know if you think you’ll be watching it or also starting over like I pointed out. See you again soon.
