Our Take
It took forever but we are back with a new season of Mike Judge’s Beavis and Butt-Head and judging by the season premiere’s antics we are in for one hell of a season of dumbfuckery, hilarious commentary on videos, and multiple variations of the show’s titular characters that should please fans of all ages.
The core of the remains remains the simple, stupid dynamic between Beavis and Butt-Head as they navigate mundane situations in the most idiotic ways possible, often leading to hilariously destructive consequences. Somehow the writers find inventive new ways to showcase their idiocy without fundamentally changing their characters. Oh yeah, and we got a Lamb of God video which already makes this week’s episode one of the better video viewing episodes of the season thus far.
