>They changed the title card and logo
>They changed the fricking theme song
The episode itself with Beavis talking to the sentient dumpster fire was funny as was the segment of them watching that moron making prison tattoo ink, but sometimes it really is the little things that make you go "Frick this".

What release should I be looking for if I want to watch the original show?
Paramount+ are slowly but surely releasing the original series with all the music videos restored alongside the 2011 revival and the upcoming batch of new episodes.
As far as I know right now it's just episodes from seasons 4, 7 and 8 that are up but they're releasing them all in batches every few weeks.
Sweet.
Is it completely uncensored? Otherwise the King Turd Collection is the way to go.
Nothing has been censored thus far and as far as quality goes, see pic related for a direct comparison.
Van Driessen is still there but if you look closely he has more lines under his eyes and around his neck so he's aged a little. Mike did confirm during the Comic-Con panel that we would get to see elderly Tom Anderson too so it's sounding like 2022 is for sure their new home.
Wasn't Anderson already elderly? Doesn't he blather about having fought in the Korean War?
He'd be in his late 80s or early 90s. Don't forget that him and his wife are probably still in prison because of what happened in Beavis and Butt-Head Do America.
They're not in prison and likely never made it that far. Anderson was present in the courtroom scene of Do The Universe and he was in a few episodes of the 2011 season as well.
Frick, chronologically speaking, Season 7 is after Do America as well so yeah at most they just hauled Tom and Marcy off only for a more competent agent or judge to let them go when it would become clear that Muddy and Dallas have no knowledge of them or vice versa.
Marcy was kinda bad ngl
>kinda bad ngl
Get out you double Black person
I wonder if it's easy for Judge to go back to doing Anderson after having developed the vocalization into Hank Hill.
He had no problems back in 2011.
>the first revival was more than a decade ago
Time fricking flies
You still need the King Turd collection for the early season episodes since the masters were cut and the changed bits destroyed.
These are the approved broadcast versions of the whole "uncut" thing refers entirely to the restoration of the music videos, not the lost material from S1-3 that got excised due to the moral panic
>the masters were cut and the changed bits destroyed.
Could be worse. The master tapes for the two Daria films are full on lost and can't be rescored, meaning that the only version that can be commercially released are the butchered rescored 00s releases, which are missing about 3-5 minutes of material each.
Where can I read about the lost masters for the Daria movies?
I've heard for years that the masters for Beavis and Butt-Head are edited and I've never seen proof of it.
VHS recordings hosted on kimcartoon and dailymotion
If you want the most unedited, then the King Turd Collection. If you want better quality, the Paramount releases slowly coming out actually look decent. I'm sure once they finish releasing everything, someone will make another collection.
Theres also that one on Twitch which streams it with the 90s commercials in tact. tvch34
This feels a little too stretched out but was decent, the theme song and title card aren't even remotely worth complaining about but this is how we do threads nowadays so whatever.
>Beavis and Butt-Head now watch tik tok videos instead of music ones
They're still gonna watch music videos like always. The TikTok and YouTube stuff is just replacing the reality show stuff they watched in 2011.
It's not in that promo clip but they supposedly showed them watching a BTS music video at Comic-Con as well where Butt-Head starts making fun of Beavis for knowing all the band members names.
>tiktok
>bts
please kill me
why is this any different from them watching mtv musuc vids and jersey shore
That's the funny thing; it isn't. Anyone taking issue with those updates is just making up half-baked excuses to try and trash on what looks to be a decent revival for a surprisingly timeless franchise that still shows plenty of comedic potential.
Hey if they shit on those YouTube Gamers that'll be great.
Music videos are barely worth commenting on these days, as long as they're still relentlessly mocking stupidity it's in line with what they've always done.
Phew, I thought you meant changed entirely. It's an arrangement, but luckily still the original tune
pretty good
>8 minute exclusive clip
pretty based honestly
>They finally replaced their old TV and all the converter boxes with a flatscreen
>>They changed the fricking theme song
But, it's like a cover. It's still blues guitar and piano.
The clip seems like a victory lap over the eventual defeat of the "fire" ban. Based.
So, this new series takes place after the movie wherein the titular duo time travel to the year 2022 right? Are they gonna acknowledge this in the series? It would be weird if they had the same teachers as before.
Previews show Van Driessen's still around as a teacher, so they could go either way
He should be in his 60s or 70s now. Hank and the principal should be dead, Stuart in his 30s (probably left highland for Silicon Valley).
The movie was okay.
This was excruciating to watch. 2/10
It was a clever joke about the infamous "bad influence" the show supposedly was in the '90s At worst you could accuse it of being backwards-looking, but one ~10min episodes spent on that isn't a big deal.
Yeah I know the FIRE, FIRE, FIRE stuff and it's cool Beavis can say it again but we don't need 10 minutes of him actually talking to fire. And the tik tok "what i learned in prison???" Clickbait video review was gay
It's a twist on it where it goes all the way in one direction of Beavis apparently being insane and taking orders from voices in his head to the gag of the voices ordering him to do uncontroversial and even responsible things. It's a sarcastic jab at the idea that the cartoon was ever a bad influence.
I thought "did you steal my saltine box again?" was pretty funny.
Heh, Toddler Beavis and Butt-Head are cute
I was expecting Mike Stoklasa's voice to come out of the burger employee.
Do the creators of the internet videos they're going to have on the show get royalties? The videos are going to be part of the show forever, but a lot of internet videos don't last forever. I feel Viacom or whatever it's called now pulled some israeli tricks so the videos would be really cheap or free.
Pretty sure they pay. One of the reasons a lot of music videos werent on the judge collection was because they only payed to use them for a limited time. Nowadays shows get perpetual licenses.
To be more precise, MTV had a master license deal with the major labels in the 80s and 90s that said that if a music video played on MTV, MTV could use the videos and songs royalty free in ALL of their original programming.
It wasn't until 2002-2003, when MTV officially stopped playing videos save for the early morning hours and DVD became a thing, that MTV let that master license deal lapse permanently and made their shows use unknown bands who they could pay peanuts to in order to get their music rights for broadcast AND DVD release.
Also, Judge was able to get several videos cleared for the '11 revival from acts who were fans of the show (MGMT, Skillrex, Katey Perry) but got stonewalled by a lot of acts in part because of the fact that MTV had to get EVERYONE involved in the making of a song to sign off on it's video being used on the show PLUS secure indefinite home video rights to it. MTV ultimately got tired of it when Judge spent several months trying to get the rights to a Kanye West video but while Kanye was OK with it, one of his collaborators point blank REFUSED to allow the song/video in question be used and that caused MTV, who was on a scheduling deadline to get the show on the air, finally broke and barred Judge from trying to clear any additional videos save the ones he already secured and ordered him to make fun of MTV reality TV show stuff since MTV owned the shows.
>Kanye was OK with it, one of his collaborators point blank REFUSED to allow the song/video in question be used
What a wuss.
I remember seeing Crowbar live over ten years ago and asking Kirk Winstein about Beavis and Butt-Head playing their videos, and he laughed and said they actually sent one in. Then again, I doubt Crowbar had to deal with a lot of major label bullshit, but from what I understand a lot of the actual artists found being on Beavis and Butt-Head funny.
Mike Judge had a really funny story about the band Grim Reaper
3:05 in. The tl;dr if you don’t want to watch is he’s usually not being too serious in his music criticism, but he really disliked this one band’s music videos and really went in on them.
Later he met a band member, and he apologized, and his response was “I love the show, I’d lose all respect for it if they said that video was cool. We’ve got another that’s even worse, we’ll send it to you”
Yeah I watched that interview. Honestly, it makes the Grim Reaper dude sound based as hell. I also enjoy a couple of their songs. I feel like laughter was the response from a lot of metal bands anyway.
reaction to being on B&B was a double edged sword. Bands like Pantera and White Zombie were MADE as far as becoming popular due to their videos airing on B&B and introducing fans to their music and boosting their sales. Meanwhile you had stuff like the songs "Scatman" and "Stars"; forgotten one hit wonders that got revived interest when they aired on B&B. Or even Zappa, who had a banned video (You Are What You Is) snuck onto the show and Zappa interceding to wave royalties when MTV found out what Judge did.
Then you had stuff like Kip Winger, where B&B basically killed his career dead mocking his videos.
Didn't Metallica get pissed at Beavis and Butthead/Mike Judge because Judge snuck onto the show the straight forward performance version of "One" that Metallica only sent MTV as an alternative in the event MTV banned the Johnny Got His Gun remix version, that ended up in heavy rotation and that the band preferred?
IIRC the band was pissed and vetoed allowing the band's name to be used on the shirts worn by Beavis for merch, which in turn mean Butthead had to have another generic shirt for merch even though AC/DC was ok with it?
The funnier thing is that Mike Judge liked an awful lot of the bands that B&B would savage and usually the more he liked a band, the more he'd challenge himself to make B&B more brutal towards them. Most bands took it as a badge of honor to get roasted and some even would play the video before their gigs of B&B talking shit over their music video as their intro. It was just when people like Kip Winger got pissy about it and threatening MTV. Judge would go in harder. The copyright situation on new videos sucks though since they can't just roast on whatever the crew likes or dislikes any more.
There was a huge moral panic about one of the episodes back in 1993 regarding Beavis' obsession with fire that MTV told the crew to tone back Beavis significantly. Beavis and Fire is still a fricking hilarious gag though
The ones where Beavis gets hypnotized are always funny.
The best one of the "Beavis freaks out" vids is the one they did where Beavis gets himself dizzy and suddenly turns into an incredibly lucid music critic on a Korn video. Judge just goes all fricking in on the brutal criticism including an all timer line from the series "This video speaks less to the heart, and more to the sphincter"
That's one of my favorites too. Are they really not allowed to criticize newer videos? I'll have to go back and watch the ones from the reboot. I did laugh like hell when they watched Its So Cold in the D.
they can but MTV no longer has the sweetheart deal mentioned by another poster that let them make fun of any video they wanted to. they now have to explicitly get full permission of the band and anyone involved in making the song plus additional rights (home video and streaming) which cost extra money.
they got several videos cleared for the '11 series before MTV stopped them, because it was taking too long to secure the rights plus one of MTV's lawyers realized that if you are going to rip off MST3K, why not mock MTV's own reality TV shows since MTV owned those shows outright plus the fact that you could get just as many fans tuning in to watch B&B mock Jersey Shore.
Honestly the reality TV mocking was some of the best Judge has done. TV had gotten so stupid that Beavis and Butt-Head seemed smart.
What stupid tv shows does mtv have now that they could mock?
I'll be honest, I have no idea. The only MTV I care about these days is MTV Classic.
>"And coming up next on Jersey Shore... will Snooki poop? Huhuhuh."
>"And if so, where?"
>Honestly the reality TV mocking was some of the best Judge has done
Not really. The MV segments actually gve insight into B&B taste in music and how articulate they can be with their criticisms.
?t=35
Meanwhile just seeing them make fun of people who are bigger losers than them just isn't as funny
That was a one-off inversion joke.
this one gets me a lot
>Katy Perry
I'm not too surprised
Good stuff. Any concerns I had about the new series have been put to rest.
He never tells Beavis to burn anything, though. That's the gag.
>Makes Beavis better himself
My takeaway was more Beavis is so anti-authority that even a 'cool' authority figure like a literal fire would just be absolutely fricking lame to him, it's fricking hilarious.
That was funny and wholesome, I like that Fire still cares for Beavis well being and that hesitation in Beavis to extinguish Fire.
>"Heh... Smokey the Bear sucks!"
>"To be fair, I did kill his parents. He's just lashing out because he can't ever fill the void in his soul."
This should have tipped how wholesome Fire was going to be.
>reacting to tiktok
this makes me sick, why is this not the "grr im angry" topic of the thread
them mocking tiktokers doesn't matter when i still have to see and hear shitty fricking tiktokers
>Beavis and Butthead reacting to TikTok
>No shitty Cal arts bs
>It's actually funny
We're back boys, no more shitty beanmouth shit NO MORE.
>9/11
B&B would've thought it was cool.
They were oblivious, not malicious. When Beavis thought Butthead was cracking a joke about Kurt Cobain he shut it down. You're just a flip of the coin from 90s pearl clutchers who thought BnB was teaching their kids to talk back and set fire to shit moron
>They were oblivious, not malicious.
That mostly applies to Beavis really. Butt-Head is more self-aware of his evil antics.
>"This show RULES! And look, every channel has it right now"
How could 9/11 be used to justify so much in the US? I would assume everyone outside of New York would be happy that a couple hundred New Yorkers died.
First major mass casualty terror event in US history committed by a foreign terrorist group/power in that scale and scope, since Pearl Harbor and against civilians as well.
Was done in NYC, in a building known for being one of the centers of American and global commerce and banking.
And it was the first time America truly felt vulnerable as a bunch of goat frickers managed to kill about 10 times as many people as Timothy McVeigh with our own frick commercial airliners.
The fire demon segment wasn't funny and way too long, all around Beavis' catchphrase? Cringe. And way too much dialogue for this show.
The video commentary was good anyway.
I hope we get some cute girls in the new series
Is this the first good thing to come from Paramount+?
Besides the South Park specials?
Pretty much. MIke Judge cares about what he puts out and it shows.
woa
Oh damn, look at those fancy frames. Nice to see my boys Beavis and Butt-Head treated like the absolute kings they are.
beavis and butthead? kino
I get what they were going for with the fire thing but it was pretty dry. The tiktok segment took me by surprise but I suppose you could've guessed they were going to do that. It was funny, though. I hope they have a variety of tiktoks and not just "clean" ones on the show. I'm still looking forward to it, after the movie was surprisingly funny. It'll never be exactly the same as the original, I predict a lot more of hit and misses in humor, but we'll see.
I really enjoyed the Universe movie, honestly. That was fantastic. Laughed my ass off.
This errr.. I dunno, not quite as much. the episode was a long drawn out joke about fire which was clever in it's own way but not laugh out loud funny.
Commenting on Tiktok videos is the right step to make, but didn't find it super hilarious either.
The move from Rough Draft to another animation studio - could deal with it in Universe, but you can still tell there's a huge difference in style. Which is a shame. Even the 2011 revival series used Rough Draft which still made it feel like B&B.
Either way there's a definite B&B goes Adult Swim style now,.
Overall it's still great to see B&B back, just hope to see more episodes of them both being dumbfricks and causing mayhem and so on.
>Beavis is a psychotic pyromaniac who hallucinates that fire talks to him and gives him orders.
I dunno, I liked B&B better when they were just stupid, not mentally ill. Don't make me want to sympathize with these fools.
Sounds like you need to rewatch some of the original. There's a turning point with Beavis, probably around the episode "Most Wanted" where it becomes clear he's a dangerously unhinged kid with schizophrenia and that's without even taking the fire stuff into account since that specific aspect was infamously toned down.
It's just a gag, doofus.
I laughed my ass off at the whole thing, especially when he kept repeating “Fire” as he ran.
It's been 20 years and all I want to see their mothers
Look for the nearest gas station in Seattle, I'm sure you'll find them.
Hi, this is bait. Please respond.
So when BnB makes fun of a tiktoker, are fans gonna raid their profiles?
Is there something wrong with me? That wasn't funny at all, I didn't even laugh once. I love old B&B, and Do America is fricking hilarious. What happened?
It feels much too slow for the ADHD zoomer generation too
is this just made for nostalgic gen Xers?
I'm 27 and I thought it was funny. I wasn't even mad about the tiktok, it was a pretty good roast. The thing is, clearly the fire was beavis's subconscious self that wanted to do good. We already know that Beavis would actually be a normal, good person if it weren't for Butthead's bad influence. Like yeah, the build up was a bit slow, but having Beavis get the fire put out then saying "That fire sucked..." was pretty funny.
The fire spirit thing is hit or miss for me. Like as I am watching it I switch from liking it to hating it. I ultimately kind of like it cause I see what they are doing here. Like you think a fire spirit would be focused on getting Beavis to commit arson but instead, he gets Beavis to do mundane yet healthy tasks. At first, you think that it's a miss direct like these tasks are somehow going to lead up to something nefarious. But the fire spirit is just trying to help Beavis build healthy habits. It's a layered miss direct joke plus seeing Beavis suffer and ultimately betray his spirit guide is pretty funny.
it's not a funny joke when you have to explain it
Errrrmmmmmmmmmmmmm
It didn't have to explain it.
Not everyone is going to get the fire spirit joke. It's the kind of joke I feel like you only get if you're a nerd that recognizes tropes. It plays with your expectations.
This genuinely sucks.
The duality of dumbasses
This genuinely rocks!
