Time to crack open a cold one and swap out the propane tanks, because King of the Hill is back. Season 15 arrives this summer with a 10-episode drop set for July.

When we last saw Hank (Mike Judge) and Peggy (Kathy Najimy), they were settling back into life in Arlen, Texas, after spending years in Saudi Arabia. Bobby is now a full-grown man running his own restaurant, while their neighbors are, as ever, just trying to get by. As the couple looks to fill their time, they find themselves navigating a world that has changed dramatically around them, from grappling with modern technology to adjusting to shifting social norms, all while holding on to the values that have long defined them.

So, what does Season 15 have in store for fan? Here is a look at what’s to come.

The Emmy-winning series ran for 13 seasons with over 250 episodes on Fox and all seasons now stream on Hulu.

Hank often hangs with his buddies, which include conspiracy theorist Dale (Johnny Hardwick, who recorded part of the season before his passing in 2023), barber Bill (Stephen Root), the mumbling Boomhauer (also Judge), and the easily agitated Kahn (originally played by Toby Huss, now played by Ronny Chieng in the revival) while Peggy confides in her close friends Minh (Lauren Tom) and meteorologist Nancy (Ashley Gardner).
