“Mike Judge’s Beavis and Butt-Head”’— new series premieres August 4, 2022 on Paramount+.

Looking forward to them trashing everyone... this is a movie though... not a series

 

No, Beavis and Butt-Head Do the Universe, released a few weeks ago, was a movie. This is a series.

 

Sorry.. my bad

 

I laughed watching the movie. I imagine I'll laugh watching some of these.

 

The movie was really funny so I'm looking forward to this new series. Unfortunately, the fast editing in the trailer doesn't really work for a fairly slow paced show like Beavis & Butthead. The announcement for their movie worked much better.

 

Not to be confused with
John Carpenter's Beavis and Butthead

 

‘Mike Judge’s Beavis And Butt-head’ Clip: New Series Is A Real Dumpster Fire – Deadline

 

Where they are making fun of the prison guy in that video may be the funniest thing I've seen in years.

 

From episode 2:

 

I can’t decide which I like better: this or Beavis twerking to BTS.

 

Still funny.

 

I loved that BTS one, too.

So far, this is a solid return.

 

I don't remember Beavis being such a doormat in the old series. Buttthead is just ordering him around constantly. I do like their interactions with Tik Tok and other modern video clips now - I think there's a lot of room for fun in those.

 

In ep 4, which I believe is last week's episode, we see Beavis finding someone who treats him like an actual friend (even if the guy is a little socially clueless). With that story as well as the way Beavis responds to Butthead's attitude while they watch the "how to twerk" video, I wonder if he's actually becoming progressively more aware of how Butthead treats him?

Probably not, but it's an interesting thought.

I have to admit that Butthead's series of Thanksgiving jokes about Beavis's mom's sexual activities was pretty funny, and I like the way Beavis interprets it.

 

Episodes have been pretty good but still don't know why they don't have smart phones, unless the timeframe is still too early, but I see the tv is updated.

 

One of the stories in episode five directly deals with the conflict between Butthead’s abusive behavior and Beavis as victim. So it does appear to be a thing that Mike Judge is exploring. However, I did not expect it to go the direction it went at the end.

The joke in the second part wore thin after a matter of moments. I liked the framing story for it, though.

Good to see

Spoiler

Smart Beavis and Smart Butthead again, from the Universe movie.

 

Although I’ve been enjoying the new episodes of Beavis & Butt-Head, I would like to see a bit more variety with the choice of music videos. They haven’t commentated on a single rock or metal video so far (This was also an issue with the 2011 revival). I get that guitar based music is mostly absent from the mainstream music scene today as has been discussed elsewhere on this forum many times but the classic show often featured videos from lesser known rock and metal acts and the duo are still wearing their AC/DC and Metallica shirts so is it really too much to ask for them to comment on a least a couple of rock videos?

 

Nice, glad it's coming back. I thought the first season of the reboot was a lot better than the season that came out maybe 10 years ago.

 

Never needed the first time around..
Though one good came out of it Daria........

 

Not sure there is enough there to sustain a whole new series, but there is at least a generation who are adults now and have never seen it. It will be interesting to see how it is received.

 

much better
