Fixed. You forgot to add American Dad. (as much as I like the show, the new stuff isn't really working for me. And yes, The Simpsons has been absolute dreck after season 12-13)
ohnestly imo the new king of the hills were waaaay better than american dad, and family guy is just trying to hard to be obscene and out there its not even funny just disturbing most of the time. its like SNL, they have Jesus jokes, and Republican jokes, thats it, WE GET IT ALREADY YOU DONT LIKE THEM>>>>>BE FUNNY!!!
Wait...what? No offense to Adult Swim fans, but isn't some of the material on KotH a bit too subtle for Cartoon Network/Adult Swim audiences?
Not to mention right-of-center? When was the last time we had a program like THAT on Adult Swim? Oh, that's right... never.
A revival of the show is currently being discussed 'King of the Hill' in the Middle of "Hot Negotiations" for a Series Revival, Which Would Be Set 15 Years After the Original Finale
I’d be down with that. Love to see how they do Dale now. People in the news mow make him look sane. I see now in charge of Strickland. Peggy doing zoom substituting.
Ugh. I can’t believe I said that over twelve years ago. 19-year-old me had issues. Been watching King of the Hill in reruns sometimes since then and I personally think it’s great.
Most of King of the Hill's style of humour doesn't really find purchase without a more adult worldview, I find. I've never super enjoyed the show, having grown up in Canada and never really identifying with its Texas-isms, but watching it now, I still certainly catch a lot more of its brand of satire than I ever did in my teen years. Back then, all I could do was take it at face value, about the mildly humorous escapades of a blue-collar American family. Now, being far more worldly, I can appreciate the more biting commentary at play in most of those scenarios.
If they choose to bring it back, a time jump like they're suggesting might be the best way. It'd be very interesting to see an adult millennial Bobby and an upper-middle age Hank in today's world.
I love King of the Hill but wasn't huge on the last few seasons. Hopefully this can reach the same heights as seasons 1-7.
