King of the Hill, Chief of War Score Big

Hulu has revived the animated series King of the Hill for a 14th season, 15 years after its original conclusion, and the new season has debuted with a perfect 100% Rotten Tomatoes score from critics. A 15th season has already been greenlit. Meanwhile, Jason Momoa’s Apple TV+ historical drama Chief of War premiered with an 88-89% Rotten Tomatoes score, marking his highest-rated TV project in over a decade. The series, co-created by Momoa and Thomas Pa’a Sibbett, explores the unification of the Hawaiian Islands with a nearly all-Polynesian cast and has been praised for authenticity and cultural significance. Both series exemplify a trend among streaming platforms to revive beloved franchises and invest in ambitious, diverse original content. The positive critical response to Chief of War may lead to additional seasons beyond its initial limited series plan.
