Beavis and Butt-head possibily returning to the airwaves
 
http://www.tvsquad.com/2010/07/07/mi...-head-revival/

I thought Mike Judge was through with animation though. Anyway, this is actually one of the few revivals I find I could easily welcome just fine. Also, as sad as this may sound, this is like the only thing that could make me pay attention to MTV again. Of course, that's provided MTV does accept this. If not, then MTV can continue to stay dead.

Oh god no i hate that show. I hope it stays dead.

I'll die of happiness if this happens. I'll drop dead and die.

No one would be forcing you to watch it.

Doc_ock_4mugen 07-07-2010 07:54 PM

Ahh! I've been wishing for the return of B&B for a while (at least their thoughts regarding current music videos).

Samhain 07-07-2010 09:18 PM

I can only watch this show if im really in the mood for that kind of humor. But this is good news I guess.

XERO 07-07-2010 09:32 PM

I'm just waitin' for them to watch a Soulja Boy video. I'm WAITIN'.

ToTheNines 07-07-2010 10:26 PM

There's really such thing as people who don't like Beavis and Butt-head? I'd heard of them, but didn't think they were real.

Koi 07-07-2010 10:41 PM

I always figured Beavis and Butthead were like Ed, Edd, and Eddy, but for adults.

I have never watched it. If it does comes back on, I'll give it a shot.

Andrew NDB 07-08-2010 12:14 AM

B&B wasn't for everyone, but I'd love to see it return. Lampooning the mid-late 90s and early 2000s music videos seems to be a thing that would write itself.

I wonder if they'd make B&B older now, for a twist? Clerks II style... they're 10 years older but still squatting around, not doing sh*t.

Also, I have no idea... but I think I read that B&B died in their last episode. Was this true?

GK Punk 07-08-2010 12:19 AM

No, they didn't die. The last episode was called "Beavis and Butt-Head are dead" and it was about them calling in "dead" to school. (IE: "They can't go to school today, they're dead")

A grown up B&B might be absolutely hilarious though.

Series Finale, Extended episode. Beavis tells the school secretary that he and Butt-head are dead, causing Princpal McVicker to celebrate and Mr Van Driessen to mourn their passing while B&B are at home watching old tv shows from earlier episodes and eating nachos.
I seem to remember them getting shot or something in a park but it's been so long.

I wonder if they'd even still do music videos since MTV doesn't seem to really play them anymore. I'm sure it would still be funny if they did though.

It started when I was 13, and I was in the eighth grade. Though when I was 14 and a high school freshman, my mother caught me watching it and forbade me to watch it. I'd still watch when she wasn't in the same room though.

I remember when they used to have moron-a-thons from time to time, with all these Beavis and Butt-head episodes back to back. What sucked is that every time they'd have them, I'd be out of the house for a long time, or my mother was home with me. So I never got to enjoy those fully without the risk of my mother breathing down my neck.

I don't know about Beavis and Butt-head as adults. The fact that they were teenagers was part of their charm, especially with their antics.

You might be thinking of these promos where they have Mike Judge dressed up as a hillbilly and talking like one, talking about killing Beavis and Butt-head. Then they'd show a close-up shot of the two screaming a long "nooooooooooooo!", and then cutting to another shot of them falling backwards on their back with the sound of a gunshot. Those two scenes were actually from two different episodes spliced together with a gunshot sound effect added in to make it look like they'd get killed.

BubblyShell22 07-08-2010 08:22 AM

Wow. My friend Dennis would love it if they returned. My brother used to watch the show, but I never did. Still, if they did come back, I'd check it out just like I did with Futurama when it came onto Comedy Central.

azrael 07-08-2010 09:01 AM

I would love this update the animation a little. This would dominate.

YES! I love Beavis and Butthead. I have their 2 jumbo plush dolls sitting right behind me as a matter of fact.

Them insulting and making fun of modern treads would be awesome. It better happen or Im gonna be ticked off.

Raph's Girl 07-09-2010 06:04 PM

Somewhere out there Sir Patrick Stewart is jumping for joy at the possible return of his fave show. :lol:

ThirdMarioBro 07-09-2010 06:41 PM

I might actually have to turn it to MTV for this. Crazy.

Walkabout 07-09-2010 07:15 PM

Ive got the old stuff on DVD- I may be a moron (ok, I am a moron) but I love Beavis and Butthead and welcome their return in any form.

BubblyShell22 07-10-2010 08:35 AM

Well, we better hope it'll be on MTV again. If not, we'll just have to watch some other network if they pick it up. I'd say if MTV doesn't pick them up, either put them on Comedy Central or Adult Swim.

Brodie 07-10-2010 12:44 PM

I'm really curious how they'll handle it in regards to the music video segments, seeing as how MTV doesn't show music videos on a regular basis anymore.

If that's where it goes, yeah.

I've actually got all of their DVDs too. The movie, the Time Life DVDs (some episodes are actually edited on those), the Mike Judge Collection sets, and even the History of Beavis and Butt-head DVD that got canned before it even made it to the store shelves.

They might not even do music videos anymore. In fact, I remember seeing the show on MTV2 either some time last year or earlier this year, and they showed episodes without even having music videos at the end. For all we know, this new version of Beavis and Butt-head could even offer 30 minute episodes instead of the 10-15 minute shorts from way back.

BubblyShell22 07-11-2010 08:38 AM

Yeah, they used to show Beavis and Butt-head on MTV2 quite a bit. I wish they would still do that so I can see the eps. Most of the time, I'd forget about them before I could watch them. I just hope MTV does pick it up again. So, is this comeback due to the fans, or does Mike Judge just want to come back to it himself?

XERO 07-11-2010 12:06 PM

Maybe they'll watch reality shows instead.

A little bit of both?

I like that picture, too. I'm sure Patrick Stewart and many others are jumping for joy at this news.

Saiya-jin 07-15-2010 10:41 AM

Haha, oh wow. I just hope it lives up to the original...although with Judge still at the helm, I'm sure it will.

Although, if this video is any indication...he might have to work with his Beavis voice a bit more. It's missing a certain..."umpf".

The New York Post is quoting anonymous sources at MTV to confirm the rumored return of Beavis and Butt-head. They write, "The new series would keep Beavis and Butt-head in their perpetual high-school state, but it would be updated so that the pals -- who obsessively watch music videos on a battered TV set -- could lob their snarky comments at more current targets like Lady Gaga."

Eh, it's not so bad. Though I'm just glad that we've got more confirmation.

The new series probably won't capture the magic of the episodes from the 90s, but I'm still up for giving this one a shot. And what do you know? It's going to be on MT-funking-V. A big "thank you" is in order for giving me a reason to acknowledge that they exist.

BubblyShell22 07-16-2010 10:17 AM

Well, this is good news. They may not be making fun of music videos anymore, but they're still going to make fun of pop culture. I can't wait to see them make fun of Jersey Shore. And MTV does play music videos but only in the morning now. They call it AMTV.

Leo656 07-20-2010 01:11 AM

So wonderful. Maybe a new wave of popularity could convince Judge to release all the episodes of the show that he didn't put on the Mike Judge Collection DVDs. I was super-pissed that the DVDs weren't the complete episode collection. Too much early stuff was completely left out. Unforgivable.

Maybe now there's hope! :evilgrin:

BubblyShell22 07-20-2010 08:29 AM

Yes, there could be hope for that. They should release a DVD of Beavis and Butt-head Do America as well.

Leo656 07-21-2010 12:58 AM

I'm pretty sure there has been, seeing as how I own it. :lol:
