Beavis and Butt-Head

It's hard to believe that Beavis and Butt-Head will actually be returning. You don't see a lot of shows returning after a 14-year (!) hiatus. Also, judging from the footage presented here, it's pretty good. Apparently the whole concept has aged well and the new stuff seems to be a nice blend of old and new.
In case you didn't know, Beavis and Butt-Head were pop icons back in the 90-s. The main stars of this MTV show (people used to watch MTV back then) were two sociopathic teenage boys, who only cared about scoring (which they never did), heavy music and nachos. In addition to spending their time on playing with dead animals and the like, Beavis and Butt-Head reviewed music videos. Usually their evaluations fell into two categories - "this rocks!" or "this sucks!". Mainly the latter.
It was fucking awesome and I can't wait for the new stuff. The creator of the show - Mike Judge - has been busy with "King of the Hill", "Office Space" and "Idiocracy" in the meantime so here's hoping that his wit is as sharp as ever. The new episodes premiere on October 27th.
