Mike Judge and Greg Daniels founded King of the Hill, which ran from 1997 to 2009. It was most renowned for its distinctive fusion of small-town American life, humor, and family values. The program featured propane salesman Hank Hill, his strange family, and his peculiar neighbors in the made-up town of Arlen, Texas.
Premiere Date
The King of the Hill revival will debut on the Disney-owned streaming service on August 4, just over two and a half years after Hulu made the announcement.
