King of the Hill Season 14 is easily one of the few times I have been craving a revival. As a Texan myself, the Mike Judge-created series is one of the best and funniest representations of the state I call home. And now, the new season will see the beloved Hill family navigating a changed Arlen, with original cast members
In addition to the returning members of the cast, King of the Hill Season 14 is also adding Emmy-winning comedian and actor Ronny Chieng, who will join the cast as the returning character, Kahn Souphanousinphone.
