    Default Beavis & Butthead returning to MTV?

    Linky


    If true, I have to admit this would be awesome. I grew up with B&B, and fondly remember the show for its nihilistic/satirical outlook. Obviously appeals to a "low brow" audience as well, but it was the meta-humor that particularly appealed to me. Here's hoping it actually happens!

    Do you have TP for my bunghole?

    This would be great news if it's true. A lot of people missed the point of the show, but it was great stuff. The MST3K treatment they gave the videos was the best.

    If it's anything like Ren and Stimpy were when remade it'll be bad. Well, I can only hope for the best.

    Stage three, we say that maybe we should do something about it, but there's nothing we can do.
    Stage four, we say maybe there was something we could have done, but it's too late now.

    I think it wouldn't work anymore. And if they would remake it to make it 'contemporary', it wouldn't be Beavis and Butthead anymore. Nostalgia is best viewed as such.

    Beavis and Butthead were great, shame for those musical interruptions which ruined it, but their commentary made up for it.

    I was waaaaay too young to comprehend the show when it was on. Haven't seen it since, so I really don't have much of an opinion. The show MTV really needs to bring back is Clone High.

    This times one billion.

    I want to drop a Clone High quote but I can't pick which one I like most and no one will get them without having seen the show...
