I wouldn’t say “unwatchable” but one thing I really didn’t like about the King of the Hill revival was aging everyone up. Mainly because it made Bobby a relatively normal, not very funny adult which eliminated like half the comedy from the show.
I haven’t tried the new one yet, but I was binging the original as prep for it and hit episodes like Peggy drugging Hank with random doses of oral testosterone without his consent, and it was too much. I felt like the show was very thoughtful about issues like bigotry and child care in the beginning, but it eventually devolved into whatever is funny at the moment without thinking anything through.

Aww man, I thought Bobby was great in the reboot.
