Fox’s middle-class animated comedy King of the Hill may be revived at Fox.
Speaking with reporters Tuesday following her time at the Television Critics Association’s summer press tour, Fox Television Group chairman and CEO Dana Walden said the network has had “preliminary conversations” with King of the Hill creators Greg Daniels and Mike Judge about bringing the Hill family back.
“I would like to explore that. We had a very preliminary conversation given what’s going on in the country; they had a point of view about how those characters would respond. But again, it was one meeting and I hope to revisit it,” Walden said. “The meeting was probably two and a half months ago. They’re both very busy and it was really just a first exploratory, ‘Are you excited about this? Is there potential in that future?’ And they were both excited about it, but they’re working on a lot of different things individually, so it’s about finding time.”
