Disney has announced that all thirteen seasons of the classic adult animated series, “King Of The Hill”, will be coming to Disney+ in Australia and New Zealand on Wednesday, 5th October 2022.   The series had previously been announced for Wednesday, 14th September 2022, but it didn’t appear as advertised.

From deep in the heart of Texas comes the half-hour animated comedy “King Of The Hill”. The series received numerous accolades over its 13-year run, including an Emmy Award for Outstanding Animated Program. “King Of The Hill” has garnered several award nominations and was hailed as the Best Television Show of the Year after its debut by TV Guide, Entertainment Weekly and TIME Magazine.

“King Of The Hill” depicts the life and times of HANK HILL (Mike Judge), his family and their neighbors in the fictional suburb of Arlen, Texas. A hard-working, loyal family man and proud Texan, Hank is assistant manager of Strickland Propane. He’s a blue-collar man of all trades who sees himself as the voice of common sense and reason in a world of incompetent sales clerks, meddling bureaucrats and do-good liberals. Hank’s better half is his wife, PEGGY (Kathy Najimy). Peggy sees herself as a woman of many talents: realtor, substitute Spanish teacher, fast-pitch softball hurler, local Boggle champion and notary public. Hank and Peggy’s pride and joy is their 13-year-old son, BOBBY (Pamela Adlon). The family is completed by Hank’s 18-year-old niece, LUANNE (Brittany Murphy). Hank can often be found around a barbeque with his beer guzzling neighborhood buddies, DALE (Johnny Hardwick), BILL (Stephen Root) and BOOMHAUER (Mike Judge). Dale’s an exterminator who never met a conspiracy he didn’t like, Bill’s a lonely-hearted Army barber with low self-esteem, and Boomhauer is a cool, rockabilly, muscle-car-driving ladies’ man who speaks unintelligible English.

The series debuted in 1997 and ran for thirteen years, ending in 2010.  There are 259 episodes of the show, so this new addition will be a huge boost to Disney+.

Are you looking forward to watching “King Of The Hill” on Disney+?
