'King of the Hill' is returning with a new series from original creators Greg Daniels and Mike Judge's new animation company, Bandera Entertainment.

It looks like fans of the long-running animated series King of the Hill have reason to celebrate, as it has just been announced that the series will be revived twelve years after its final episode aired, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Original series creators Greg Daniels and Mike Judge will return to oversee the series through their new animation company, Bandera Entertainment.

There are more than a dozen projects in the works under the newly formed animation company, but perhaps the most notable is the King of the Hill revival. The series originally aired from 1997 until 2010 and followed the banal yet entertaining exploits of the humble citizens of Arlen, Texas. Upon its premiere in 1997, the show was an almost immediate success, and offered a unique insight into the middle-America mindse, led by the moral compass of propane and propane accessory salesman Hank Hill.

COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY No details were given about plot or production details for the revival. The news comes along with news of several other projects from the new animation company, including the upcoming Netflix series Bad Crimes. This also follows news of the revival of Judge's series, Beavis and Butt-Head, which was announced before the formation of Bandera.

No details regarding the plot for the King of the Hill revival have been released, but as Daniels said of his work for Bandera Entertainment, “[w]e were very excited to go into different tones and different styles and try to expand the animation art form." Maybe, then, there are some exciting changes in store for our favorite Arlenites. .'King of the Hill' Writer Teases Possible Revival of the Mike Judge/Greg Daniels Show A key plot detail has been revealed, too.
