Instead of reviving the brainless cast of The Hills for another disappointing season, MTV has decided to go highbrow… by resurrecting Beavis and Butt-head. As obnoxious as the 90s duo was (and will no doubt continue to be), I think we can all agree that the network’s programming decision is a positive one. Because let’s face it: Comparing Beavis and Butt-head to The Hills is like comparing Masterpiece Theatre to…The Hills. The New York Post confirmed the story that was first reported by REVIEWniverse last week:
The new series would keep Beavis and Butt-head in their perpetual high-school state, but it would be updated so that the pals — who obsessively watch music videos on a battered TV set — could lob their snarky comments at more current targets like Lady Gaga.
I'm pleased.
