Yes!

Bring back Daria while they’re at it.

 

[UncleMeat]

Yes!

 

[GymWolf]

A reimagining during these woke times is always a scary news.

 

[Cravis]

Excited but very apprehensive based on current times.

Still wished we had gotten Beavis and Butthead Do the World.

 

[quickwhips]

Beavis is going to be black and butthead will be a transgender asian woman. Can’t wait for it to be a hot mess and say i told you so.

 

[Forsythia]

Yeah baby! Lets hope they won't neuter it.

 

[Ornlu]

Beavis & Butthead on 2020 Comedy Central?!?!?!? HELL NO

That shit is going to be neutered all to hell.

 

[Rock And Roll]

Beavis your balls are filthy

 

[Xaero Gravity]

Please don't be neutered. Please don't be neutered. Please don't be neutered.

 

[kunonabi]

This is not going to work at all.

 

[Jooxed]

Please don't be neutered. Please don't be neutered. Please don't be neutered.

Are we doing this again

 

[Xaero Gravity]

Are we doing this again

I'm undecided

 

[Tranquil]

I'll give it a watch, I'm expecting to be disappointed.

Just saw it. Great news.

And like I said in another thread, I hope they find a way to do music videos again and not shit like Jersey Shore (the 2009 reboot sucked ass).

As for the ones who are worried don't forget South Park still exists in the same network and they bow to no one.

Dude didn't they JUST have a reboot a few years ago?

Yes!

Bring back Daria while they’re at it.

They are, but they're replacing Jane with Jodie.

I thought Jodie was chill, don't get me wrong. But she was already a bit like Daria herself. The cool thing in Daria and Jane's relationship was that they were pretty opposite in their viewpoints and how they expressed them. Jodie was in a lot of ways a black Daria but a bit more muted and focused on a bit less range of topics.

Can they make it work? I hope so. But I've got my doubts especially depending on who the writers are.

 

[Nymphae]

Judge on board so it won't be embarrassingly woke, but honestly I don't care I'm not going to watch it.

 

[nush]

10 years ago, or almost.

Yeah, I don't really think Judge will let them bastardize his characters too much. but who knows in this day and age.

[Space Runaway]

Well the later episodes and 2011 show were already heavily watered down so I expect it to just be more of that. I doubt the show will have any kind of impact these days but it might still be fun. Also Mike Judge was really struggling to recapture the Beavis voice in 2011 and I wonder how it will sound now. =P

They had their moment's. There was one I wish i could find or remember when Beavis drilled or nailed a hole into his hand. But I can't find the clip

 

[Old Retro]

There's no way it would work today. It was made for the grimey GenXers of the time.

 

[BlackOlivesMatter]

They could announce a cure for Covid today and it still would pale in comparison to the return of Beavis and Butthead.

The 2011 season was just as funny as the original 7 seasons.

 

[J-Roderton]

No freaking way it could be good.

 

[BlackOlivesMatter]

No freaking way it could be good.

 

[Jooxed]

Haha it was this from the new season.. sorry for the terrible quality it was the only video I could find.

[Ceallach]

Nice, I've been revisting the series recently, I had a thread about it!

I just got to the episode where they went to mexico, lol.

Anyways, CC is probably the best place for this. Parker/Stone always talk about how they really don't get any notes or pushback from them. After losing Chappelle back in the day they don't get involved in people'e shit too much.

But again, I hope they have music videos and don't try to shoe horn in them heckling standup or something

 

[petran79]

Without music clip commentary it is not worth it. In today's climate most music clip producers and singers would be furious at the slightest hint of parody and satire

 

[JimiNutz]

It was awesome the last time they brought it back and I'm sure it'll be awesome again if Mike Judge is still in charge.

 

[Grinchy]

I thought the new season 10 years ago was pretty good, but I wasn't completely sold on the reality show riffing. It just felt like some studio executive pitching the "synergy" of using their own properties to save money and promote the properties at the same time.

I'm so down for this, though. I don't know what they'll be riffing, but I'll take what I can get.

 

[haxan7]

I'm pretty sure I owned the reboot season on DVD before I purged most possessions during a move... but I don't remember watching it

 

[Birdo]

Can you mosh to hip-hop?

 

[Smiles and Cries]

Ren and Stimpy next please

Music videos or bust.

I hated the part where they commented the shitty MTV programming from that time. It felt totally anachronistic.

I think the MTV reboot a few years ago was one of the their top rated shows but it was the wrong age demographic (too many "old" people watching) so I expect this to be successful.

 

[DESTROYA]

Expecting it to suck but I hope I’m wrong

Whoa, those research interests.

It's, like, my dream woman right now. I'm not even kidding. I love reading about that stuff.

It's gonna be PC baby garbage like the Cranky Yankers reboot.

She is like Daria come to life.

South Park is still going. I have some faith in it. Why didn't the Beavis and Buthead reboot from a few years back take off? Low ratings?

 

[lock2k]

It's gonna be PC baby garbage like the Cranky Yankers reboot.

If it ends up this way it will be really bad but we can ignore its existence.
