The revival series of “King of Hill” on Hulu is revealing more details before its release, and luckily, it has dispelled one of the concerning theories about the upcoming episodes. After a fifteen-year hiatus since the original series ended, and nearly a decade from the events in the previous show, each character has significantly aged and undergone changes. Some have faced tougher times than others during this period.
In the unveiling of the fresh opening theme for the rebooted series of “King of the Hill“, there was a scene where Bill Dauterive coughed and left the group during the COVID-19 outbreak, causing concern among viewers who speculated if he had tragically succumbed to the illness. However, the complete trailer for Season 14 of “King of the Hill” confirmed that Bill is still alive, although clearly struggling more than we remembered from his last appearance.

What Happened to Bill?
Fans of “King of the Hill” have expressed concern about the character Bill’s future in the upcoming season, as he hasn’t appeared in any footage or clips released so far. Despite a new, older design for all characters in the alley, Bill has been noticeably absent. It turns out that this is because Hank and Peggy left for Saudi Arabia for several years due to a propane venture, leaving Bill homebound and appearing more downtrodden than ever before.
It’s not yet clear how the new King of the Hill series will affect Bill, as while animation allows for a certain level of creative freedom, the show is known for its grounded approach. Fans appreciate this realistic aspect, and the aging of characters adds depth to their stories, since they’ve made decisions with long-term consequences that are hard to reverse, especially in Bill’s current situation.
What Does This Mean for Bill’s Future?
In the latest episodes of “King of the Hill,” things aren’t entirely bleak for Bill, as the creators have given him a new appearance. It wouldn’t make sense for “King of the Hill” to create an older version of Bill only to discard it in the main series and keep him confined to his room. Instead, the reappearance of Hank and Peggy in Arlen is what will likely bring Bill back to life, potentially leading to a happy resolution for him in the end.
As an ardent fan, I must confess that when it comes to Bill from “King of the Hill,” there never seemed to be a definitive ending planned. Each moment he managed to stay afloat and avoid being consumed by his inner turmoil was a triumph. However, since the original series wrapped up, Bill appears to have sunk deeper than ever before. Yet, I’m relieved to see that he’s still here, fighting on. It’s safe to assume that he will reappear in the show’s upcoming season, taking time to tidy up himself first. We’ll find out for sure when “King of the Hill” Season 14 debuts on Hulu, August 4th.
