The classic MTV cartoon series "Beavis and Butt-head" will likely be revived, reports New York Post. While the network has no official comment — created by Mike Judge, the iconic show ran from 1993 to 1997 — sources say that the characters will be exactly as they were in the original, except the duo's snarky zingers will be aimed at today's popular culture. Would the young slackers still be relevant in 2010? (Watch a clip from the original series)
Now here's a show worth revisiting: I couldn't be more "stoked" about the new episodes of "Beavis and Butt-head," says Hannah Lawrence at Hollywood.com. I'll get to savor the duo's amusing grossness — "sweat stains," "nose hairs," and all the rest — from an adult vantage point. It's a perfect timing to win over a new generation of fans.
