Beavis and Butthead was funnier when I was 14 but it's still good.

I have been watching the new season of "Beavis and Butthead" and enjoying it for a number of reasons. I'm amazed that Mike Judge has maintained the exact format as when it originally aired from '93-'97. A few things have changed about the world since 1997 but not Beavis and Butthead, they are still virgins, they are still morons, and they are still in high school. I had a feeling that the show would hold up when I heard that it was being brought back and I was correct.

The biggest hurdle that they've handled very well is the significant decline in music videos that are played on MTV. Mike Judge overted this obstacle with grace when he decided to have the boys poke fun at reality television programs aired on MTV. I assume mocking shows on the same network makes getting all the rights a breeze, so that's another great move on Judge's part. Hearing Beavis and Butthead tear apart the cast of "The Jeresey Shore" is simply magnificent especially since they have strung that show on for far too long and it's no longer even ironic and funny to me anymore it's just annoying and sad. I will tackle those assholes in a future post, although I feel unoriginal even thinking about them.

If you have yet to tune back in to "Beavis and Butthead" it airs on Thursday nights on MTV at 10/9c and it's certainly worth checking out especially if you were a fan in the 5th grade like I was.
