Beavis and Butthead back on MTV (new episodes)

BEAVIS AND BUTT-HEAD Officially Returning to MTV This Year

Big, big news: there may actually be a reason to watch MTV after all. Last we heard, creator Mike Judge was busy outlining 30 new episodes of his classic TV show Beavis and Butt-Head. At the time, it was unknown when or even if those episodes would see the light of day, but Judge had faith. Well, it looks like all that early work paid off because MTV has officially confirmed that Beavis and Butt-Head will be returning to the network later this year! The show premiered in 1993 and maintained a wildly successful run through 1997, spawning numerous videos, DVDs, and one feature-length film. Behind all of this madness was creator/voice artist/genius Mike Judge (Office Space).

MTV’s report doesn’t give any information other than the fact that the show will air “this summer.” When we heard that Judge was working on 30 new episodes of the show, it was confirmed that they would maintain the show’s traditional “ghetto-tech” animation style. The two will also be featured doing what they do best, mocking contemporary music videos (ironic, considering the re-branding of MTV has all but exiled actual music videos on the channel).

The news of Beavis and Butt-Head’s return was announced at the upfronts for the network in New York City, and subsequently tweeted by (cringe) Justin Bieber. If you’re like Bieber, and are too young to actually remember the show, it centers on two high-school burnouts who spend their days mocking the television, being rude, and generally getting into multiple slap fights in each episode. So it’s time to start freshening up those Cornholio impressions, because Beavis and Butt-Head are back!

Wicked awesome!

What I'm wondering is how they will watch the music videos. Sine mosteveryone watches music videos on the Internet nowadays, because no one plays videos on tv anymore, will they still be sitting on the couch watching tv or sitting in front of a computer monitor on You Tube?

Do you really think Beavis and Butthead would know how to use a computer? if they do it would only be to look at porn, otherwise they would smash it with a bat, or try and stick crispy frogs in the disc drives lol. I can only imagine them watching a Rhianna video, haha. Those horny little dudes will go nuts for her S&M video.

I think 13 seasons was enough for any show, lol.

Can't wait to see new Beavis and Butthead episodes! Like others said, it'll give me a reason to watch the channel.

I liked it. I haven't watched much of Beavis and Butthead, but what I have seen I don't enjoy nearly as much as King of the Hill, which I thought was the best of the animated shows I've seen the past decade or so. Personal preference, I guess.

i've noticed and someone else on there said it that this isn't on the Beavis and Butt-Head collection. Even though the 3 volumes say all episodes I know this isn't on there. There are other episodes not in the collection.

[SixSpeedSamurai]

Oh man, I loved that show in high school/college. The DVD's never did it justice because the videos were the best part.

[stadanko]

Yeah hopefully with this coming back, judge will let the missing episodes see light. They can honestly do a fourth volume and call it the unreleased collection.

[Tom Hiddleston]

This is extremely good news, but MTV still sucks. I remember when it was awesome.

[Power2the1]

Great news, though it's the only reason to watch MTV

[Ite]

Meh, it will suck.
