Why?!? It's adolescent crudeness, badly drawn, stupid storylines, and completely and utterly unfunny. :-\

Looks like 'King of the Hill' is set to be
the latest show to get the revival treatment
--------------------------------------------
King of the Hill co-creators Mike Judge and Greg Daniels are
apparently in "hot negotiations" for a revival of the '00s
animated sitcom. 

Although the show may have achieved relatively moderate
success compared to some of its counterparts, it seems the
demand for a reboot is high.

During a recent Reddit AMA, former Kill of the Hill writer
Brent Forrester revealed the renewed interest when he
answered a question about reviving the series.

"Have you heard any updates as to the possible King of the
Hill revival? Aging the cast of characters would be a stroke
of genius and practically reinvent the show (in an awesome
way!)" a Reddit user wrote.

"I am sure Greg Daniels and Mike Judge will murder me for
sharing this but... HELL YES," Forrester replied.

"They are in hot negotiations to bring back King of the Hill.
The Trump administration made it suddenly very relevant
again. The characters have all aged 15 years. The project is
sooooo good. Okay I've said too much," he concluded.

Well, it's not clear how happy Daniels and Judge may be about
Forrester spilling the beans, but there you have it.

If the revival does indeed go down the road of setting the
show 15 years later, it will certainly stand out amongst the
majority of animated series' that present characters as
seemingly ageless.

However, questions have already been raised as to how the
series, which originally ran from 1997 to 2009, would
translate in 2021.

Considering the show is centred around a conservative Texas
family, it is unclear if and how politics will play a part.

As reported by Consequence of Sound, the show's original run
covered hot button topics including gun ownership, conspiracy
theories and racism.
