But yeah, Comedy Central is most likely paying extra to make sure they're the only ones that can air it.

That brings up a good point. How come MTV isn't doing anything? I know MTV isn't what it was but it feels weird seeing B&B have new episodes somewhere else.

But idk, like Leo said, it sounds like they care more about these weird spin-off shows that they can't do unless they bring B&B back. I guess it's like someone wanting to make a Batgirl show who only really like Batgirl and hates Batman, but being forced to 'make a Batman show first, then get your Batgirl spin-off'. I re-read that article and it does have that tone of 'we're only bringing B&B back because we absolutely have to so we can do what we want' vibe.

Don't be surprised if B&B lasts a season and the spin-offs go on for longer.

Cuz MTV suuuuuuuuucks. It does feel weird, though, but eh.

Even if B&B gets its full two seasons I can promise you the Daria spin-off will go longer because it has a female protagonist. Ratings and public response won't be a factor, it's just The Way Things Are Now. Even if the Daria spin-off isn't popular it'll run for about four seasons or so, I predict. I think Beavis and Butt-Head will get its full two seasons, honestly, but it won't get renewed I don't think. Just a gut prediction.

It sounds like you guys are just trying to convince yourselves something is up. There really is nothing that implies they only agreed to Beavis and Butthead for the spinoffs.

Its been at least 10 years between both B&B revivals. It was going to return eventually. Somewhere. I think Mike Judge mentioned MTV did NOT want to continue it in 2011. So they mean nothing apparently.

And saying they would keep the Daria spinoffs and not B&B regardless of ratings makes no sense. People keep saying studios only care about money. Well that totally contradicts that kind of prediction.

Nobody is going to cancel something just for the sake of a female character if its actually preforming well or better than the other. If it does matterthat much theyll probably keep both.

This is just choosing to being upset over PC/Woke stuff in advance by thinking up conspiracy theories.

I doubt that mate, most of the female-led stuff is very short-lived in Hollywood, you need only look at their box office poison to see that, none of them guarantee franchise.

I think 1996 was the last year they were even watchable. Once TRL got established instead of the regular "Top 20 countdown" that was the beginning of the end.

They always had a mix of videos and other stuff going back to the beginning, but once they flipped their entire programming demographic to being aimed solely at teenage girls, that was it. Nobody on the planet has worse taste than teenage girls. That whole channel was unwatchable by 1998. Real pity, from like 1991 through 1995 or so I used to watch it every day.

I would agree with that.

But I think they dropped even further down after they gotten rid of the "Music Television" display in the MTV logo.

97 was when Daria aired and when Beavis and Butthead ended! i did enjoyed BAB since i was 11 when it debuted and Daria when it debuted when i was turning 15 and let's not forget cool adult cartoons MTV had like Aeon Flux, The Head, Liquid TV, Celebrity Deathmatch and more.
