Creator Mike Judge has reportedly outlined 30 new episodes for a possible primetime return to MTV.

It has been over 12-years since Beavis and Butt-Head were airing new episodes on MTV, but most people can still instantly recognize the unique “huh huh, huh huh” laugh of Butt-Head, or the “fire, fire!” cries from Beavis. The show produced 200 episodes over seven seasons, a feature movie, and now it seems that the trash talking duo are about to make their TV comeback on the network that made them- and creator Mike Judge- famous.

Since the end of the series, Judge has been a busy guy. He wrote and directed several movies including the cult classics Office Space and Idiocracy, he created King of the Hill and has leant his voice to several animated shows. The guy has been busy. Now, according to Reviewniverse, Judge is hard at work to bring back Beavis and Butt-Head for a slot on MTV’s new primetime lineup.

Recently MTV has begun to limit their once rampant slew of reality shows like the recently cancelled The Hills, in favor of scripted programming like The Hard Times of RJ Berger.

According to the report, Judge will keep the original show’s low budget look, and the format will remain true to the original episodes, where Beavis and Butt-Head comment on music videos. The show will feature current music videos, but the format will be the same.

No word yet on when the show might air. Below is a clip of Beavis and Butt-Head discussing Judge’s last movie, 2009’s Extract. Enjoy!

  3. Daz at 4:57am 30th September 2010 I'm a massive beavis and butthead fan and am happy to hear of its return but i'd quite like it if they had both aged rather than stay the same age. Just think it would be alot funnier and more unique. I'm going to watch regardless but just wanted to express a view
