It seems they're going to be watching today's media and commenting on it as before. Do you think they'd fit in with today's internet generation? Or are they set to make a second-coming? Personally, I feel their humor is timeless. Stupidity never grows old.

I hope it swings music video channels back to actually playing music videos.
 
I always liked how Beavis & Butthead loved Todd who would beat them up and steal their money-just because that was so cool.

This show was a masterpiece of stupidity. I hope it's Mike Judge that is main the director.
 
Haha, YES! I'm visiting my dad right now and told him that they were back on. He was like "What?" So I pulled my shirt over my head and made cornholio noises and he was like "OH GOD NO!".

I guess he still remembers why we had to get rid of cable when I was a kid.
