King of the Hill Revival Trailer Released: The Return of Arlen’s Favorite Family

Four animated men hold drinks, standing casually in a grassy yard with a wooden fence and trees. They're dressed in casual attire, creating a relaxed vibe.

Get ready, folks. The much loved King of the Hill is back with a bang and Hulu has just dropped the official trailer for its long awaited revival. After more than a decade and a half of radio silence, fans are finally getting a fresh look at the Hill family and their neighbors navigating the oddities of modern life in Arlen, Texas. Whether you grew up quoting Hank Hill’s propane wisdom or just stumbled on the show recently, this revival promises to deliver the same deadpan humor mixed with a dash of new age absurdity. Let’s break down what the trailer reveals, why this comeback matters, and what to expect from the new season.


It is no secret that King of the Hill was a cultural staple of late 90s and early 2000s television. The show captured the quirks of suburban Texas life through the eyes of Hank Hill, his wife Peggy, and their son Bobby. It was dry, witty, and never tried too hard to be funny, which ironically made it hilarious and endlessly quotable.



Now, with the world vastly changed and the original series ending in 2010, the King of the Hill revival trailer is the first glimpse at how the creators plan to update the show without losing its core charm. Fans are eager to see how the Hill family fits into the 2020s, especially with issues like technology overload, social changes, and the ever-mysterious gig economy.


The trailer is a perfect mix of nostalgia and modern twists. Here are the key takeaways that had fans buzzing:

Hank and Peggy Hill Adjusting to RetirementHank Hill, the propane and propane accessories man, is finally retired after a long career — including some work overseas in Saudi Arabia. The trailer shows him struggling hilariously with newfangled tech like video calls and “all gender” bathrooms. Peggy is her usual no nonsense self but also faces her own challenges adapting to a quieter life. Their dynamic remains intact, full of subtle humor and the odd eye roll.


Bobby Hill Grown Up and Making Moves Bobby, who was once the lovable awkward kid, is now 21 and pursuing a passion for cooking. The trailer reveals Bobby working as a chef in a trendy Japanese restaurant in Dallas. He tries to broaden Hank’s palette, with predictably funny results. This grown up Bobby adds a fresh angle to the family while staying true to his quirky spirit.


Familiar Faces and New Voices Boomhauer, Bill, and Dale are back, which means all the oddball neighborhood shenanigans are returning as well. Fans will notice a change with Dale Gribble’s voice actor—Toby Huss now takes the mic after Johnny Hardwick’s passing. The revival also welcomes Ronny Chieng as the voice of Kahn Souphanousinphone, adding a new flavor to the mix.


The World of Arlen in 2025 The show has cleverly woven modern issues like the gig economy, changing social norms, and technology’s intrusion on daily life into its signature humor. It is a relatable snapshot of how people — even in a small Texas town — are trying to keep up without losing their sanity.



The King of the Hill revival trailer doesn’t just rely on nostalgia for cheap laughs. It shows that the creators respect the original tone while bravely updating it for today’s audience. This means you get the same dry wit and heartfelt moments but with fresh commentary on real issues.


Also, it is worth noting that the animation style and voice work have stayed true to form. For fans who remember the original series fondly, this is a comforting sign that the revival won’t stray into the realm of sellout or overhype.


Mark your calendars for August 4, 2025. The new season drops exclusively on Hulu and Disney Plus. Binge watching King of the Hill revival will soon be as essential as quoting “I tell you what” or “Dang it, Bobby.”


The release of the King of the Hill revival trailer is a big deal for animation lovers and TV fans who enjoy humor that respects intelligence and dry sarcasm. It cleverly updates the Hill family and their neighbors for a modern audience while keeping the soul of the original series intact.
