An official listing confirmed the King of the Hill reboot episode count, hinting at its eventual release date.

King of the Hill originally aired on Fox for 13 seasons from 1997 to 2010, maintaining steady ratings and critical acclaim throughout its run.

After being officially ordered by Hulu in 2023, production on the King of the Hill reboot wrapped in October 2024.

Hulu's revival will age up key characters, with Bobby Hill entering adulthood, while also navigating the challenge of replacing late voice actors like Johnny Hardwick.

King of the Hill Reboot Episode Count Confirmed

A new listing on the Writers Guild of America (WGA) website notes that the King of the Hill revival will have 10 episodes in its first season.

The listing details episode credits for Season 14, set to air sometime this year, with 10 episodes written by a mix of returning and new writers.

I heard Seth MacFarlane​ was producing it or writing it or something a while ago.

Sometimes it's best to just let stuff end.

But that would mean creating new IP! Not to mention you're dropping something without fully squeezing every last cent from the nostalgia crowd!
