About a year ago, MTV president Van Toffler was having trouble sleeping. "I was eating Fruit Loops and Cap'n Crunch out of the box and flipping through the dials when a Lady Gaga video came on," he says. That's when he had the idea: Bring back Beavis and Butt-Head. "I felt like there was a whole crop of new artists — and what the world sorely missed was the point of view that only Beavis and Butt-Head could bring." Source states that b&b are probably in their thirties but they will return to MTV as the same, old, mental teenagers they were born to be! "They'll be self-contained segments with the boys in different situations like they used to be," Toffler says. "But this time around, they'll watch Jersey Shore, UFC matches and user-generated videos from YouTube, in addition to music videos." All of the programming will be displayed on the duo's TV, even if it comes from YouTube — "like silly videos of cats playing music." An English substitute once told me, many years ago (two months ago) that our class reminded him of an old nineties show he used to watch. "Give us a hint!" I demanded in excitement. "well" he declared "It had two teenage boys in it." "but I'm not even one teenage boy" But then it hit me like a ton of bricks. BEA. VIS. BUTT. HEAD. O. MI. LUMP!!!! i was honored to even be compared to the great gods they call beave and butt.
