Briefly

King of the Hill returns for its 14th season after a 15-year hiatus, featuring Hank and Peggy Hill back in Arlen, Texas, following years in Saudi Arabia. The original cast members are thrilled to reprise their roles, expressing that the show holds a special place in their hearts. The revival showcases characters aged up, particularly Bobby, who is now a chef in Dallas. The showrunner emphasized maintaining character growth that aligns with past developments, ensuring the new season serves as a love letter to the series' legacy.
Kathy Najimy, the voice of Peggy, stated, "It's one of the best jobs most of us have had. I'm old, so I've had a lot of jobs, but I love this job so much."
Showrunner Saladin K. Patterson explained, "We get to see them aged up, which is something animated shows don't do that often."
Stephen Root, the voice of Bill, remarked, "The show always offered comfort, and I think it can offer comfort to new viewers as well as old."
Patterson ensured the creative team "really went out of our way to make sure that any growth that happened is the growth that should have happened to these characters."
