'King of the Hill' Becomes Disney's Most-Viewed Adult Animation Premiere in 5 Years With 4.4 Million Views
Still just as good as the old show, pleasantly surprised.
Yeah some of the voices bother me (primarily Dale but I understand why), but the comedy is on point.
The nerd in me wonders if this is due to being animated as the Futurama revival is also great while I can't think of a single example of a live-action revival going well (X-Files, Dexter, Full House, Rosanne, Fraser, etc).
Give me more Venture Bros ffs
The new season of Dexter is not quite peak Dexter, but still pretty good.
Time will tell for Dexter. The one season "New Blood" revival did well enough to give us a one season, "Original Sin" prequel season, which ultimately gave us a currently airing "Resurrection" season, already renewed for a second and third season.
I'd argue that's going well.
Fuller House also ran for five seasons, which is also arguably going well.
The Conners went for seven seasons.
I think i've only seen 5 episodes, but so far i've found it a bit bland. Hank is still great as Hank, but like any straight man in comedy he needs big characters to foil against, and that's what i've found lacking so far. Bobby is older and has transitioned from comic relief to another straight man. Peggy hasn't had much plot devoted to her yet. Dale and Bill have been pretty scarce. Less frequent characters like Kahn, Cotton, Luanne, and Mr Strickland haven't been present at all.
It feels like a smaller more subdued show, and the Arlen community is less vibrant than it used to be. Maybe they had scheduling challenges with all the voice actors.
edit: watched the rest of the season and it is definitely better in letting some of the other characters shine. although i still feel like the show is suffering from bobby being older.
with the death of 2 of the Og Va, it will be hard to replace them.
