Their run on television was short, sharp and shocking, but they are often forgotten, mired in controversy and parts of the program have not aged particularly well.īy today’s standards, Mike Judge’s two characters are entirely unacceptable, sitting on a sofa in a typical American town full of dissatisfaction, with little better to do than judge music videos and spout misogynistic and offensive bile. Originally found sniggering through short half-hour shows on MTV, they were the first animated shock cartoon of a generation, and their influence can be traced to many of today’s popular shows. Anybody who experienced their teenage years between 19 will recognize the names of Beavis and Butthead, and a new movie featuring the slacker duo will be welcome news.
