6	''WesternAnimation/BeavisAndButtHead'' has some moments that are cool.

9	----
10	* Cornholio. Full stop.
11	* Their [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Tw5vVaBBws collaboration]] with Music/{{Cher}} was the stuff of legends.
12	* The episode "Mr. Anderson's Balls", in which the boys go around a golf course, sneaking around and stealing golf balls (mainly Mr. Anderson's), and later selling them to the golf players (including Anderson himself), and they actually pull it off without a hitch. Normally, Beavis and Butt-Head are a pair of dim-witted morons with a two digit IQ, so to see one of their money-making schemes actually work to perfection was quite stunning.
13	** And they sell them cheaper than the ones in the sports shop, effectively stealing the shop's customers and making some good money.
14	* In one episode, Beavis and Butt-Head are given a dollar by a girl on the condition that they leave her alone. They attempt to buy a gallon of gas with it, only to be told by the [[NiceGuy surprisingly patient and helpful gas station clerk]] that they could use their dollar to buy a lottery ticket. They end up winning $500... and use it to buy a lawnmower and gas for said lawnmower. Then they take it for a joyride, ram it through the wall of their school, and use it to mow the anarchy symbol into the school lawn.
15	* Tom Anderson gets one of his own after his neighbor threatens to sue him when Anderson's steamroller damaged his hedges, thanks to Beavis and Butt-Head, in "[[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Steamroller]]".
16	-->'''Bill:''' You're gonna pay for this, Anderson!\
17	'''Tom Anderson:''' Like hell I am. You're the one who told me to rent from Morgan's. Now get the hell out of my property you son of a bitch! ''[punches his neighbor, who falls to the ground]'' And if I ever see that damn dog of yours peeing on my yard again, I'm gonna shoot both of you!
18	** Not to mention the scene where the duo [[KarmaHoudiniWarranty rams a steamroller into Coach Buzzcut]] through a wall in the same episode. One of the rare times Buzzcut is a victim of their antics.
19	** Anderson gets another one in the epsiode "Daughter's Hand" when he sticks up for the duo when [[PapaWolf Victoria's father]] attacks them. However, he gets his ass kicked.
20	* In the episode "The Trial," Beavis and Butt-Head are on trial for egging Mr. Anderson's house, and defend themselves about as well as you'd expect...until Butt-Head is inspired by a thought-bubble of a celebrity he saw on TV, advising him to "Use the Force." Under the influence of this outside inspiration, Butt-Head promptly has x seconds of badassery, with authoritative take-charge voice included:
21	-->'''Butt-Head:''' "Sir, so for all you know, it could have been--" ''[Points at Stewart, in the audience]'' "--HIM who threw rotten eggs at your window!"
22	-->'''Tom Anderson:''' "Well, all you kids DO look a lot alike..." ''[Adjusts his eyeglasses]''
23	-->'''Butt-Head:''' "If that's your opinion, sir; then your testimony as an eyewitness is hardly credible!" ''[Points at Anderson]'' "It is incompetent, irrelevant, and immaterial!" ''[Promptly returns to normal, and sits down]'' "...Uh, or something. Uh huh huh. Uh huh huh huh huh. [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments I rest on this guy's face....uhh, I mean I rest my case.]]"
24	** Granted, the mention of ''rotten'' eggs exposes that he and Beavis WERE the guilty party [[INeverSaidItWasPoison (since there were no other references towards the eggs being rotten)]], but that doesn't detract from the sheer moment of awesome.
25	* Beavis finally reaching his breaking point and telling Butt-Head to shut up, followed by kicking him in the nads. Over a Music/BonJovi video, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qDVlqddaiXM of all things.]]
26	** Especially awesome if you've ever dealt with a FanHater.
27	** He does [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xcURAXOi3Cg the same thing]] when they watch the video for "Firework" by Music/KatyPerry.
28	** Similarly, there's "The Miracle That is Beavis" where, despite his misguided approach, Beavis manages to awesomely assert himself against Buzzcut, [=McVicker=], and Butt-Head. Sadly, it doesn't last.
29	** The ''ultimate'' was when they were watching a Music/{{Rancid}} video, and [[https://youtu.be/HwCds59TmZY Beavis just gets completely, awesomely fed up with Butt-head's crap.]]
30	* Stewart's ThrowTheDogABone moment at the end of "Holy Cornholio". After putting up with Beavis and Butt-Head's jokes, one of the series' {{Butt Monkey}}s is going to bang the women that Beavis and Butt-head pass up (due to being completely ignorant of what "conception" means).
31	* Mr. Buzzcut, with just five simple words; [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RzCnrpfUaAk "Kick me in the jimmy!"]]
32	** Mr. Buzzcut beating the ''crap'' out of Mr. Candy at the end of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZJxRe_BEQ4 "Candy Sale"]].
33	* [=McVicker=] at the Town Hall Meeting in "Dumb Design". He may be a stuttering convulsing mess, but when he tells the arguing crowd to shut up, ''everyone shuts up''.
34	* The duo actually ''succeeding'' in getting in Todd's good graces at the end of "A Great Day".
35	-->'''Todd:''' Hey man. Thanks.\
36	'''Butt-Head:''' Cool. Todd owes us.
37	** And then they see him beat the crap out of somebody.
38	* Even though it's AllJustADream, Beavis's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=waUk4jkMSsQ fantasy]] of being in UsefulNotes/TheAmericanRevolution in "Our Founding Losers" is [[SugarWiki/SoCoolItsAwesome as awesome]] as it is [[AnachronismStew anachronistic]].
39	* They got to meet [[UsefulNotes/BillClinton President Clinton]] in "Citizen Butt-Head." And then ''again'' in [[WesternAnimation/BeavisAndButtHeadDoAmerica the movie!]]
40	* Even though it was in an alternate timeline where [[WesternAnimation/BeavisAndButtHeadDoTheUniverse the boys never got sucked into a wormhole to 2022 from 1998]], the Burger World manager finally firing them (or at least Beavis) back in 1999 as revealed in "Home Aide" can be seen as a moment of awesome for him, considering all the trouble they had given him and his franchise; it was well overdue.
41	* In the episode "Nice Butt-Head", though it was inadvertently due to Beavis [[WeWantOurJerkBack wanting the old Butt-Head back,]] he basically saved Butt-Head's life by forcing him to vomit those pills. Yes Butt-Head was a kinder and more well-adjusted person from them, but he also took them like he was eating candy and was clearly overdosed on them.
42	* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5e5wCl6ucW0 Reacting to Ghosted: Love Gone Missing]]. Beavis's bewilderment (about a man ghosting his ex-girlfriend because he saw her as a sex addict) slowly turns to genuine rage, and he belts out a rant not seen since his tirade in 'Do America', and it is glorious. He actually ''smashes the TV'' because of it, with Butt-Head egging him on and agreeing with him for once instead of telling him to settle down. Pure bliss.
43	* The episode "Bone Hunters" in general is a moment of awesome for the duo, as, even if it was their misunderstanding of paleontology, they actually construct a dinosaur sculpture twice their size from the meat bones they found, and people are genuinely interested in it. Talk about HiddenDepths. Sure, the boys destroy it at the end while fighting, but it's still worth mentioning.
44	* The boys' brawl in their reaction to "Purity Sounds Bath." Normally, the two engage in a very amateurish WimpFight whenever their arguments get physical, but this time, it's evident they're packing a ''lot'' of power and skill into their punches, starting with Butt-Head mercilessly head-butting Beavis in the forehead. Beavis doesn't back down however, and gives as good as he gets, even going so far as to throw Butt-Head onto the coffee table and ''breaking it'' when the latter starts to [[YourMom insult his mom]], and then [[WrestlerInAllOfUs executes a perfect DDT drop on him]]!
45	* In "Sleepover", the duo are invited over to Cody's house to play a video game, not realizing Cody really invited them to ''watch'' him play, although they are determined to stay until they can play. After enduring a night of sappy activities from Cody's overbearing parents, Beavis is given a sugary special breakfast, which causes him to turn into Cornholio. While Cody and his parents are distracted, Butt-Head steals the video game, and the console, and drags it back to the house.
