As a longtime fan of King of the Hill, I couldn’t be more excited about the upcoming revival series on Hulu! Nine years have passed since we last saw Bobby Hill, and it’s fascinating to see how he’s grown up to become a chef in Dallas. It seems like every character is aging along with him, which means a new status quo for all of our favorite Arlen residents.


The classic animated show “King of the Hill” is currently being developed for a fresh revival on Hulu, and the initial glimpse of grown-up Bobby Hill offers some insights into the upcoming sequel series. “King of the Hill” joins the list of recent resurrections of yesteryear’s animated favorites. Co-creator Mike Judge has previously achieved success with the reboot of Beavis and Butt-Head, and now King of the Hill is getting its turn to return with a new series as well. With this new revival, fans are curious about the direction it will take.

Previously, “Futurama” resumed on Hulu with a fresh series that picked up where it left off, and “Beavis and Butt-Head” combined these concepts by featuring tales from their younger selves as well as their adult counterparts. On the other hand, “King of the Hill” is already indicating it will take an entirely unique path compared to its peers with the upcoming series, hinting at a full sequel rather than a revival. By advancing the timeline, the show has propelled the characters into a future phase, with Bobby Hill being the first to experience noticeable changes.

Bobby’s Now 21 Years Old, It’s Been 9 Years Since First Series

In an earlier interview with Movieweb, voice actor Pamela Adlon revealed that her character Bobby Hill is now 21 years old and has taken up a career as a chef in Dallas. This was subsequently corroborated by an online leak showcasing Bobby’s adult design, suggesting he truly has become a chef. Since we last saw him at the age of 12 during the series, it has been nine years, and during this time, Bobby has already gained recognition as a skilled chef through cooking competitions like “King of the Grill.

Since Bobby has grown nine years older since the initial series, it’s only logical that all other characters will age approximately a decade too. In the upcoming reboot of “King of the Hill”, we’ll see an evolved Rainey Street and a fresh equilibrium for every character. As Bobby is now an adult and living independently, the stories will unfold in new settings, featuring new characters, and introducing even more innovative concepts to anticipate in the revival series.

How Has Hank Changed?

The central theme in the original King of the Hill series revolved around Bobby’s bond with his father, Hank Hill. Occasionally, Bobby engaged in activities that left Hank puzzled, yet their affection for each other was evident as Hank endeavored to find common ground. As Bobby exhibited a colorful and inquisitive personality, he dabbled in various interests and personas, but it turned out that they both cherished food, cooking, and sharing meals with others.

The decision to make Bobby a chef indicates that the creators of the new “King of the Hill” revival are committed to maintaining character authenticity. Although they might have altered the timeline for all characters, the choice of Bobby’s career aligns perfectly with his established traits. Despite significant character changes, it appears that they’ve preserved most of their original selves. Thus, we can expect Hank’s fundamental personality to remain consistent as well.

Although Bobby appears to align with Hank’s expectations, there’s a good chance something will disrupt that. Additionally, new characters may appear on Rainey Street over the past decade, and an older Hank might grow weary of any foolishness in his surroundings. However, despite these changes, it seems that the core elements of King of the Hill will endure.
