It's a two-season pickup for the animated comedy.
October 30, 2025
Hulu announced today that King of the Hill has been renewed for Seasons 16 and 17. The streamer has ordered 20 new episodes that will be split across the two seasons. The news comes ahead of the animated comedy's 15th season, which is slated for sometime in 2026.
The show debuted in 1997, airing a total of 259 episodes across 13 seasons. During that time it received critical acclaim and accolades, including an Emmy Award in 1999 for Outstanding Animated Program. It was also named as one of Time Magazine's greatest TV shows of all time.
Set in the fictional town of Arlen, Texas, King of the Hill follows the life of Hank Hill, a propane gas salesman; his wife Peggy, local Boggle champ and substitute teacher; and their 13-year-old son, Bobby, who defies any expectation his father had for a son. Hank's friends, along with Peggy's friends, help the Hills navigate a changing world.
The Season 14 revival picked up several years after we last saw the Hill family - Hank and Peggy are now retired and return to a changed Arlen after years of working in Saudi Arabia; and Bobby is 21 and living his best life while navigating adulthood as a chef in Dallas.

I'm still hoping the reboot gets as good as the original. Or at least the later seasons. Hank selling out to Saudi Arabia of all things was almost a deal breaker. Its just not something he would do.
