They're coming back
Introducing a whole new generation to the word "bunghole", it's the announcement of the return of the off-the-wall heavy-metal-loving best friends.
Launching during what seems like a much more simpler time in our lives (excluding the early 2010's revival), the '90s cartoon following two loud-mouthed teenagers is on the return to Comedy Central. And no, the new 'Beavis and Butt-Head' reboot isn't going back to the '90s, but instead will place them in a whole new world of wonder as children of Generation Z.
Original creator Mike Judge is back on board the project, which has been greenlit for two seasons over on the comedy channel. Making the swap over from MTV to Comedy Central, Judge promises that the troublesome little sh*ts teenagers will be offering up a mix of fan service for older fans of the original, as well as introducing the characters to new viewers in the modern era (Generation Zs are were born between 1995 and 2005 fyi).
"In this iteration, Beavis and Butt-Head are entering a whole new Gen Z world," Comedy Central said in a press release. The series will contain "meta-themes relatable to both new and old fans - Gen X parents and their Gen Z kids."
Creator Judge, who is known for animation comedy 'King of the Hill' and the stellar 'Silicon Valley' said: "It seemed like the time was right to get stupid again."

Let's hope there's plenty more one-liners on the way whenever the new 'Beavis and Butt-Head' reboot hits in the future.
