WHAT:
Today, ATX TV Festival and Hulu have announced a “King of the Hill” Reunion and Sneak Peek at the series’ revival, on Friday, May 30 at 7PM, which will take place during the Festival’s 14th Season, happening May 29 – June 1, 2025 in Austin, TX.

Marking 15 years since the last original episode of “King of the Hill” aired, the show’s creators and cast will make their way to Texas to revisit the series and reflect on behind-the-scenes stories, their favorite moments from their time on the show, and more. The reunion will also feature a sneak peek at the series’ upcoming season 14 revival premiering this summer on Hulu.

For Camp Badgeholders and invited guests, the panel will be followed by a backyard barbecue-style shindig where folks will feel like they’ve stepped into the Hill Family’s backyard in Arlen for the first time since the show’s finale in 2009. The after-event will showcase food and drink from Texas favorites, local brands, exclusive “King of the Hill” themed photo opps and giveaways, backyard games, and great tunes.

ABOUT THE SHOW:
Set in the fictional Arlen, Texas, the original series followed the life of Hank Hill, an enthusiastic seller of propane and propane accessories; his wife, Peggy, local Boggle champ and substitute teacher; and their son, Bobby, who defied any expectation his father had for a son. Hank’s friends – conspiracy theorist Dale, military barber Bill and cool but inarticulate Boomhauer, along with Peggy’s friends Minh and Nancy, and Bobby’s friend Connie helped the Hills navigate a changing world. The Emmy®-winning series ran for 13 seasons on Fox and all seasons are available on Hulu.

The upcoming season 14 of “King of the Hill” will take place in fictional Arlen, Texas, in present-day USA.

“King of the Hill,” from 20th Television Animation, is executive produced by original co-creators Mike Judge and Greg Daniels, as well as incoming executive producer and showrunner Saladin Patterson. Additionally, 3 Arts’ Michael Rotenberg and Howard Klein, and Bandera Entertainment’s Dustin Davis serve as executive producers.
