Just today, Fox had discussed the possibility of reviving "King of the Hill," one of their classic animated shows, with producers Mike Judge and Greg Daniels. Now, it's been confirmed that Seth MacFarlane of "Family Guy" will be the one in charge of the new adventures of the Hill family.

MacFarlane stated that the revival will be much darker and edgier than the original seasons, much like the darker tone of newer episodes of "Family Guy," and will also use cutaway gags. Some of the characters will be rewritten to suit the much more modern society. For example, Hank Hill will be rewritten as an alcoholic asshole who has no respect for his family, much like his father.

The remaining part of the quote is so bad it comes off as obvious bunk.

Imagine going from Mike Judge who does voice over mid segment skits for Alex Jones to Seth MacFarlane. The complete opposite of Alex Jones.

The last episode was nice, they don't need to bring it back. But if does, please don't let MacFarlane touch it.

What TC posted didn't come from any reliable source. But this looks more reliable:

http://variety.com/2017/tv/news/king-of-the-hill-fox-revival-talks-1202519401/

From “The X-Files” to “24: Legacy” to “Prison Break,” Fox has been in the business of reviving beloved series of late. The next series to make that list may just be “King of the Hill.”

“We have had preliminary conversations with Greg [Daniels] and Mike [Judge],” Dana Walden, Chairman and CEO of Fox Television Group, says. “I would like to explore that. We had a very preliminary conversation about that. Given what’s going on in the country, I think they had a point of view about how those characters would respond.”

Walden adds that Fox has only had one meeting earlier this summer with Daniels and Judge about the idea thus far, but she “would like to revisit it.”

“It was really just a first, exploratory, ‘Are you excited about this?’ They were both excited about it but they’re both very busy individually so it’s about finding time,” Walden says.

“King of the Hill” originally ran on Fox from 1997 to 2009 featuring the voice talent of Judge, Pamela Adlon, Kathy Najimy, Brittany Murphy, Johnny Hardwick, Stephen Root, Toby Huss, Chuck Mangione, and Tom Petty. The show’s original run featured 259 episodes, achieved global syndication, and became one of the network’s longest running series to date. It also briefly held the record for the second longest running animated sitcom in history and won two Emmy awards.


This sounds more promising. I'd be down with a random new season. Could take place a few years later, Bobby being a few years older, and they can easily write Luanne off by saying she moved somewhere.

I actually feel like King of the Hill was one of the few sitcoms that consistently got better even into the final season. I especially love the way the animation really came into its own in later seasons. It could totally deserve a revival.

When Mike Judge brought back Beavis & Butthead for another season, it was on point af.

I'm in full support of a new KotH, but it has to be Judge.

Unlikely scenario considering how busy he is with Silicon Valley though.

As long as Judge is in charge and it's not a crappy cash grab, this would be awesome. (the real news, not the fake news in the op)

Easily the best animated comedy of all time.

If the Beavis and Butthead new season can do okay they can do a new King Of The Hill. This is Mike Judge. He knows what he's doing.

The Goode Family wasn't his fault.

Goode Family was actually funny even if it was King of the Hill: Liberal Edition.

He's more nuanced then that. Remember the handshake episode with Bush?
