KotH is in the hands of Disney now, so best bet at anything like that happening would be if The Bob’s Burgers Movie really makes them happy this summer.I mean cool...but King of the Hill that is the movie or reboot we need
Paramount really is digging up literally everything they have that was popular at one point and time and rebooting it for Paramount+.
Paramount is running a very different business model now. They are digging for IPs anyway they can find them for Paramount+ to give the service content that people have a connection to beyond Star Trek.Almost everything, I know for a fact there won't be a Ren & Stimpy movie. Bob Camp proposed one a while back when Rocko's Modern Life and Hey Arnold! got their films greenlit. But it got shot down by Paramount, who citied the utter disaster of the "Adult Party Cartoon" that was helmed by John K as why.
Now that we have streaming services, I almost prefer when they treat a series like KotH and not like what's happened to the Simpsons or South Park or Family Guy. While KotH definitely felt like it ended too soon, the alternative is turning into a zombie series that exists on TV once a week just because maintaining the merchandising value by putting out terrible episodes must be more valuable than replacing the show with something else.I'll watch it-- the first movie was great, and Mike Judge usually produces funny stuff.
I've been watching KotH on FXX and it really holds up well.
