The Return of Beavis and Butthead?
 

Fans who fondly remember "Frog Baseball" and still pull their shirts over their heads to break out a rendition of "The Great Cornholio" may have reason to rejoice. It seems that news is circulating that MTV plans to revive one of its most popular franchises in Beavis and Butt-Head. According to Examiner's REVIEWniverse, an anonymous source has revealed that creator Mike Judge has 30 new episodes in the works which will be set for a return on its native MTV. While the deal is not yet set in stone and reports also indicate that the return of the animated icons has yet to be greenlit, Judge's efforts may be an indicator that things will likely move forward.
According to the report, the updated series would apparently hold true to the original in that Judge plans to maintain the scraggly, "ghetto-tech aesthetic" of the original series. Additionally, the format of giving music videos the old "Mystery Science Theater 3000" treatment of voice-over commentary would also remain, except with up-to-date videos, obviously. (Beavis and Butt-Head commentating on Lady Gaga videos? That's got to be worth something.)

Spun-off from the 1991 animation showcase/anthology series Liquid Television, Beavis and Butt-Head would air from 1993-1997. At the height of its popularity, it even spawned the theatrically-released film Beavis and Butt-Head Do America, which topped the box-office in its debut weekend, going on to gross over $63 million in 1996. The animated duo represented for many, the embodiment of society's imminent intellectual downfall, and for others, a guilty pleasure that contained nuggets of clever commentary on culture and Americana. For MTV, the show's success was an important landmark in its complete transition from the network that played music videos into the broader, youth-catered programming full of teen dramas and scripted "reality" shows it would eventually become.

It's been a long time since the 90's iconic bumbling duo have shined in the spotlight and it's difficult to tell if they would show their age if revived in today's setting. How would Beavis and Butthead's rural, mundane, but trouble-filled lives hold up in a much faster culture filled with a dominant Internet, smart phones, and social networks?

Would fans welcome the return of Beavis and Butt-Head? Or would a revival be perceived as milking a franchise well past its age?

I am all for this as long as Mike Judge is at the helm. The potential to make fun of so many things that the world has evolved into with social media and cell/texting. lol

Uhh. Hey baby. Ya wanna wrestle?

Hells Yea!

**** YEAH!!!!!!!!!!

Do you have any Oleo?

That cartoon was pretty disturbing for the time, now we have shows like the boondocks haha

I have a season on DVD. I guess they couldn't get the rights to all the music, so it's just the cartoon... no videos. It kinda sucks. The videos (and their commentary) made the show.

Yup. Videos were my favorite part by far. Sadly MTV getting the show would be the only way it would work in order to have videos.

I haven't watched MTV in like a decade.....

**** YES

Ummm like this and stuff

I love how the writer asks whether or not this format would hold up in this more "fast paced" age. What a bunch of dopey tripe. It's Beavis and Butthead, for chrissakes. You think the people who liked Beavis and Butthead before have all grown up? It appeals to the forever immature set - which counts nearly every man I know.

There is a torrent out there called the "King Turd" collection, or something like that, that has all the episodes, with music videos.

Oh, and please, for the love of everything holy, be true.

VH-1 could do it.

Favorite line
"Damn, if I could move my hand that fast I would never leave my house."

Tool video in the background.

hehehehehe....cool

Will they bring back "Fire, Fire Fire!" ???

I'm assuming they would. Family Guy and South Park are way more "offensive" than Beavis and Butthead were. Not really many lines they could cross on prime time television anymore.

U2 video with a buffalo running across the screen:

"That's a big dog!"
"That's a buffalo you dumbass"
"Oh"
"They should shoot it"
"yeah, hehehehe"

I remember the day they actually played VIDEOS!!!

This is my all time favorite episode, when they decided they needed beards to pick up chicks. They cut their hair and glued it to their face. I still occasionally pull out a "Caution...words, words, words" from when Butthead was reading the warning label. My wife just rolls her eyes.

NACHOS!!!!!

Shut up, fartknocker!



Uh huh huh huh, uh huh huh. She said "ism".

"Damn, we're smooth"...

heh, this sucks, change it...

These guys suck, and it looks like they are not even trying. The Jesus Lizard sucks, but they kick ass!

(girl dragging garden implement behind her in music video)

Beavis: What's that?
Butthead: That's a hoe.
Beavis: Yeah, yeah, I know. But what is she dragging behind her?

He has a point unless they are going to change with the times.. There are hardly any good metal videos out there unless B&B are going to be making fun of lady Gaga..

Uhhhhh show us your thingies!!!!! Yeah yeah your thingies!

And who can forget the incarnation of Hank Hill (Tom Anderson)........."Your the boys who've been whackin' off in my toolshed!"

Classic...I'd love to see it come back, but only with Mike Judge as someone said.

There are plenty of videos, it's just that no one shows them, unless you watch MTV2.

And I would hope they would show Poker Face by Lady Gaga, that has huge potential with B&B riffing on it (and probably humping the couch).

This might be the only problem. What made that show so popular was largely how offensive it was. It will be hard to push that envelope much further than it has been pushed.

I think it would be funny to incorporate some of the King of the Hill characters in there as well.

No, not at all.

Wrong.

Putting Beavis and Dale together would be epic.

Meh, I thought it was funny when I was 16, not so much anymore. If they're going to do it, it needs to go on Adult Swim.

I would love for that to be true.. But my brain is just saying it will fail hard..

Would be better if they showed the live video, had them humping the couch and then her wenis pop out and then they could do their wtf faces..

They are returning again. This time to Comedy Central

Awesome. And it'll be better on Comedy Central.

the last reboot was awesome, always thought it was a shame that it didn't last long on that waste of space that is now MTV. CC will definitely be a better fit for it.

finally!

Hehe.."spinoffs"...hehe.

The only reason it isn't on MTV is because it wasn't named Beavis and Rob Dyrdek.

hehe you said "deer dick"

awesome. really wish they still had the ability / ok to make fun of music videos in it; that was one of the best parts back in the day.

Man I liked this show so much back in the day....I wasn't a fan of the dvds that got released because they cut stuff and picked the episodes so it wasn't complete...

I compiled every single season of Beavis and Butthead complete and then made a 3 disc set I burned and made labels for myself. The set is still on my PC so I can play it digitally or through disc...

:rockon: YES :rockon:

Good.

Question...so I guess there won't be clips in between of them trashing on music videos?

When's the last time anyone's seen a music video and are they still being made at all?

Bands still make videos, you can find a lot on Youtube.

Heh Heh...he said "coming".....heh heh....

**** yes, the last reboot was so hilarious because it made fun of all the shows on MTV.

Instead of the music videos, they were watching 16 And Pregnant and shit.. and Beavis & Butthead were smarter than the people on the shows lol

I still have so many one liners that I remember that crack me up.

there was one Pantera video they were watching, and commenting how the lead singer was angry etc; and probably had a really bad father. Then they starting imitating what they though his father was like, and Butt Head was like "...yeah, his Dad is probably like...'Damnit Pantera'"
as if the singer's name is Pantera LMAO

and the video of "Take On Me" by A-Ha; Butt Head goes "Hey Beavis...this bands name is "Uh Huh (in a Butt Head voice)"....uh huh huhuhu uh huhuh "

lol

portagal the man came out to this last year. I lost my shit.

Oddly, for all the Mike Judge stuff I love, I never got into B&B. I thought the movie was great, but I just wasn't in a place to 'veg out' with their show laughing at dumb stuff at the time it was on. I probably just missed out on the zeitgeist because from King of the Hill on, anything with Mike Judge attached usually sparks my interest [even watched every episode of The Goode Family, oh and I was a staunch supporter of his Showtime series on 'Tales from the Tourbus'], . . . though I guess I never did see that movie where Michael Bluth runs a soda bottling plant, . . . Extract was it? Maybe put that on my queue.

Hahaha. Just a brilliantly made show. Simple and juvenile yes. But so great.

All during the hoarding I always thought of Beavis and Butthead: "TP for my bunghole"

ARE YOU THREATENING ME!!!????

Outside of the love scene in "team america".....the first Cornholio episode made me the laugh the hardest I may have ever laughed.

Yes. Extract is great.

Me and my buddies in our 30s and 40s went around for a good year or two constantly saying: ME Don Cornholio, need TP for My bunghole.

What a bunch of immature goofballs we were! :p

Damn it, Pantera - you need to go upstairs and clean your room!

LMAO Both those parts just had me rolling...

Did they ever bring back “fire, fire, fire”? Or maybe that’s gone forever?
