Beavis and Butt-Head are back, and below is a peek at what their first episode in about 14 years will look like. When creator Mike Judge was asked at Comic-Con why he's reviving the show, he said, “I felt like TV was getting too smart." The show will return in October, and the duo will even take on the Jersey Shore cast (Judge said he "didn't feel good after watching [Jersey Shore], but I kept watching it.").
If you want some old school Beavis and Butt-Head, VH1 Classic will be airing some episodes on July 30th for MTV's 30th birthday. For three days the network will run "memorable musical performances, hit series, specials, promos and news events that shaped the history of the network." This includes shows like Remote Control, YO! MTV Raps, The Real World, Club MTV, and more. Now, can we bring back Daria?
