Ugh. Don't we have enough "comically offensive" cartoons these days?

Beavis and Butthead is good for a really stupid laugh now and then, but does it really need a revival?

When the final episode ended, it left you wanting more. There was no way that they would leave an open ending open.

The new show will be slightly different from the original. Thus, it'll be canceled quickly.

I do know that one of the episodes will have Beavis and butthead trying to pick up chicks after watching Twilight. I cant help but feel that this is going to be a great Take That! to those awful books.

Also, even though I'm not fan of Beavis and Butthead I will check this out now and then since its a show that DOESN'T have Seth's name on it. Speaking of that, any chance of a Brothers Grunt revival?

[up][up][up] The Brothers Grunt will NEVER be revived. The show was such a critical and viewership disaster for MTV (the show even had "cancel The Brothers Grunt" campaigns...before the Internet!) that MTV prefers not to acknowledge its existence.

Also, the creator has moved on to other things (he created Ed, Edd and Eddy and did some Converse ads with Lupo the Butcher after its cancellation).

Maybe they should also riff on an awful cartoon like Fanboy and Chum Chum or Paddy the Pelican. [lol] I hear they're going to riff on bad viral videos BTW.

Okay, I have to admit, that really made me laugh. waii

Is it just me, or does Beavis's voice sound less rough now?

[up] It's not you. Mike Judge voiced Beavis back during the original show & movie. He's gotten older since then. It's like Mel Blanc's last years where all of his Looney Tunes voices just sounded like Heathcliff. The voices change.

Yeah, as much as I hate The Amazing Fatass Atheist / Distressed Watcher (and I do! Very, very much), he did bring up a good point when he discussed his opinion on the (then) rumours of the show's revival: B&B were responses to the 90's and that making the show set in modern times could make the show drastically different than it used to be and that if it was set in Comic-Book Time during the 90's, there wouldn't be enough context for the audience to truly understand just what the jokes are.

But the trailer gave me hope. The other things I have heard also sound great.

The only thing that weirded me out was Stuart's Winger shirt. They've gone from the epitome of lameness to total obscurity since B&B were last on the air.

I'm still trying to figure out what happened to the original concept of Beavis and Butt-head being in their thirties. When I was watching the video, I was actually disappointed to see that wasn't the case.

Buscemi: I don't think Judge has the rights to use Daria anymore. He believe he sold the rights after deciding to stay out of that series (I don't think he even got a "Based on a character created by" credit on the show).

boobustuber: Yeah, I was wondering if she was sold. That sounds kind of "wrong", doesn't it?

Sorry if I'm a little late to the party, but Daria was not sold. Glenn Eichler created the character for B&BH and then asked Judge if it was okay if he took her back and made the spin-off. If anything it was more like the birth parent adopting a child back from it's adopted parents. Which might be just as disturbing depending on the specifics, but whatever.

And yes, I'm very excited about the great return. But in a way I kind of hope Daria doesn't come back. She evolved way past the show, having her return would seem like a step back.

The whole point of B&BH was to mock youth culture. It hasn't gotten much smarter, so I'm sure the show will do just fine.

Maybe you'd be less disappointed if you stopped expecting things to be Carmen Sandiego movies.
