King of the Hill’s Revival Has the Perfect Chance to Bring Back One of Hank & Peggy’s Best Stories

by

The iconic series King of the Hill has made a comeback on Hulu with a fresh revival, providing fans a long-awaited chance to delve back into one of the most cherished tales involving Hank and Peggy from the initial run. After a fifteen-year hiatus since the original Fox broadcast concluded, King of the Hill is once again gracing our screens with new episodes, astonishing both longtime enthusiasts and newly found fans with the significant transformations that have occurred in the lives of these characters since they last appeared. Nearly a decade has passed for Hank Hill and his companions, and their lives are vastly different now.

The popular TV show “King of the Hill” hasn’t confirmed if it will continue for another season on Hulu, but should it, there’s a fantastic chance for an exciting sequel. In earlier episodes, characters Hank and Peggy had dreamed about their retirement days, envisioning themselves traveling across America on motorcycles. Now that they’re actually retired within the show’s narrative, it seems like the ideal moment to join them on such a journey at least once.

What Happened to Hank and Peggy’s Motorcycle in King of the Hill?

In Season 7 of “King of the Hill,” during the episode titled “Queasy Rider,” Hank and Peggy found themselves facing some marital tension due to differing views. As a response to this, they sought help from a marriage counselor, who learned that their retirement dreams involved a shared adventure of motorcycle travel across America. The counselor advised them to seize the opportunity by purchasing one motorcycle together and embarking on their journey sooner rather than later with their savings.

Due to this incident, the tension between them escalated since Peggy desired to ride the motorbike more frequently, while Hank clung onto it. He felt his masculinity would be undermined when other drivers saw him on it. However, the bike was never mentioned again in subsequent episodes or even seen. Interestingly, this topic resurfaced in Season 14 of “King of the Hill,” where a picture of Peggy riding the motorbike at the end of Season 7’s episode was revealed as one of Bill’s fake wife photos. This reintroduction of the motorbike raises new questions about its whereabouts and usage.

It’s Time to Bring Back the Missing Motorcycle

In a playful reference during Season 14 of “King of the Hill,” it’s subtly hinted that Hank and Peggy owned a motorcycle at some point in their past. Now might be an ideal opportunity to delve back into this aspect of their history. The ongoing theme in recent episodes revolves around their struggle with finding purpose in life now that they no longer have consistent work to occupy them. It would be delightful if these characters got an episode where they embark on a road trip across the United States, exploring new places and perhaps finding fresh meaning along the way.

The revival of “The Hills” offers a continuation of the series that fans might have speculated about after its initial end. This new phase closely references key moments from the original show, potentially strengthening connections between events. Instead of being a fleeting, standalone idea, this continuation could help address Hank and Peggy’s retirement issues in a future season, providing some relief.
