Hank and Peggy Hill return to Arlen, Texas, after spending time in Saudi Arabia due to Hank's job in propane. The revival of King of the Hill, set to premiere on August 4, captures the couple's adjustment to modern America, highlighting significant cultural shifts since the series ended during the Obama presidency. The show aims to explore Hank's reactions to new technology and social developments, with the show’s creators aiming to blend nostalgia with contemporary themes, making Hank's complaints relatable to today's audience.
"A lot has happened in the world since the original run of the show ended. There's just a lot more for Hank to complain about," says Mike Judge, King of the Hill's other co-creator.
"They had gone to Saudi Arabia and they were just coming back and had missed out on a lot of recent, uh, cultural changes," says show co-creator Greg Daniels.
