King of the Hill is officially back, and fans are binging like never before. The beloved animated series has returned after more than a decade with Season 14, now streaming in full on Hulu. The revival has already broken records and brought viewers back to Arlen, Texas, proving that Hank Hill’s love of propane (and good storytelling) never goes out of style.
King of the Hill Season 14 Premiere Success
According to Deadline, the season premiere crossed 1 billion hours streamed globally across Hulu and Disney+. It has also earned the title of most-watched adult animation season premiere in five years. On top of that, critics are raving — with The Guardian praising the revival’s ability to blend nostalgia with sharp new writing.
The near-perfect Rotten Tomatoes score doesn’t hurt either. As Hank would say: “Ho, yeah!”
What’s New in King of the Hill Season 14?
The new season picks up after Hank and Peggy spent years abroad, with Hank working a propane job in Saudi Arabia to secure their retirement. Now back in Arlen, Texas, they find a hometown that’s changed while they were gone. Old friends Dale, Boomhauer, and Bill are still around, while Bobby is pursuing his dream life in Dallas as a young chef. He reconnects with familiar faces like Connie, Joseph, and Chane — adding fresh energy to the story. (Variety)
