** When the pilots of ''Beavis and Butt-Head'' first aired in 1992, the school leaving age in Texas (where Highland is located) was 17 years: that increased to 18 in 1997, and now it's 19 years. I imagine that [=McVicker=] would have a lot of things to consider if he really wanted Beavis and Butt-Head out for good, such as alternative schooling arrangements and getting approval from the school board.

It could be possible that the school board overturned the expulsions of Beavis and Butt-Head, especially if Highland High is (to date) the only high school in town.

* During the tug-of-war over the collection money during the original finale, it's all well and good that McVicker has a big Vietnam flashback to past instances where the boys have caused chaos, but nearly all of the moments shown didn't involve him at all, nor was he there to witness them so how is he seeing them? The school-related moments (the pencil-related injuries in class, Mr. Van Driessen sent flying through a windshield and over the side of a cliff, Butthead getting run down by a school bus) do make a modicum of sense as news of those incidents would make their way to him, but how was he able to witness them rocking out in their own house, Butthead almost drowning Beavis at Burger World, and Beavis starting the infamous fire in the comedy club?

** The episodes with Anderson in them are probably from the timeline where Beavis and Butthead eventually aged up. Notice how there aren't any major indicators of which year they're set in.

* The show is inconsistent about whether B&B can read, or count. Often when they try to count, they'll say something like "1, 2, uh, 7?" Yet, when they sing the "Beat Your Meat" song, they can at least count to 12. Whether or not they can read, likewise, seems to depend on whether it's a dirty word (or something that can be mistaken for a dirty word).

* In the 2022 revival, Beavis and Butt-head have time traveled from 1998 to 2022, and are back in Van Driessen's class like nothing ever happened. Van Driessen appears to be the same age as he was in 1998. I realize it's kind of silly to apply serious analysis to Beavis and Butt-head, but the movie went to the trouble of having the time-travel plot to account for the time skip, but didn't account for this. Tom Anderson is also the same age (he would be in his 90s at the youngest if he's still alive).
