Could King of the Hill be coming back? Deadline reports FOX is interested in reviving the cancelled TV show.
From Mike Judge and Greg Daniels, the animated comedy follows the day-to-day lives of a Texas family that includes propane gas salesman Hank Hill (Mike Judge) lives with his substitute Spanish teacher wife, Peggy (Kathy Najimy); their awkward and non-sports enthusiast 13-year-old son, Bobby (Pamela Adlon); niece and wannabe beautician Luann Platter Kleinschmidt (Brittany Murphy); and Ladybird Hill, Hank’s beloved bloodhound. The show was cancelled in 2009 after 13 seasons.
During this summer’s TCA press conference, FOX chairman Dana Walden revealed the network is in preliminary talks to bring King of the Hill back:
We had a very preliminary conversation. Given what’s going on in the country, (Judge and Daniels) had a point of view about how these characters would respond.”
Walden added that both Daniels and Judge are on board to revive the series; they just need to find time.
What do you think? Are you a fan of King of the Hill? Would you watch a revival?

Revive the classic TV show
Revive the TV show and bring the classic back to life
King of the hill was the best, when itvand my name is earl was on air itvwas the good ol days, yep, its still worth millions to make, the same fans of family guy, rick and moty, bobs burgers, American dad, Cleveland show and south park are also fans of king of the hill, there is still big market for king of the hill, it still airs in a good spot and highly loved, the type of fans fox would bring would be far reaching past the influential zone the already are, meaning more sales more money
Please revive this! It was one of the best cartoon shows ever! Plus it followed the American family perfectly! Everyone had family and friends that could relate to all these characters. It’s a shame Cotton (grandpa Hill) died in the final season! But remember who Hanks Hills cousin was… ZZ Top’s Dusty Hill! lol. And I think he had a ball being a part of it! Who else would have ever put some of this together! Not to mention Dale, America’s favorite paranoid neighbor and friend! We need this show back! PLEASE!!!!
If Fox is considering about reviving King of the Hill, I want Fox to consider about reviving other shows. Like Futurama, Take Me Out, The Rich List and
The X Factor.
Oh, and America’s Most Wanted, too.
Brittany Murphy is dead! Who would replace her for her character?
I think they would make her character be dead too, out of respect for the late actress.
Without Tom Petty and Brittany Murphy, they Kleinshmidts just move off to West Durndel to raise their child. It won’t be entirely the same, but they were side characters anyway and life is never the same. This leaves room for new characters to show up, or to build on older characters.
In my opinion LuAnne would be dead.. she was perfect for the role and it would be a shame to recast her.
To me this was the best animated series on TV! The characters were whole and complete, very well developed with interesting and funny points of view. I have thoroughly loved every season and wholeheartedly look forward to it’s return!!! Good going FOX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
