    The animated duo have returned, as dumb--and hilarious--as ever. [31 Oct 2011, p.36]
  2. There's still something winning and relevant about their particular blend of cluelessness and surprisingly sharp commentary.

    Nevertheless, this is a kind of American classic that goes right against the grain of what cartoons are supposed to be.

    There is--beneath the stale crust of the new Beavis and Butt-head, baked in with the program's existential outlook--a special grimness.

    Beavis and butthead have been gone for a long time but after all these years they are just as funny as they were before. I am so glad beavis and butthead came back. I havent watched mtv in years and its nice to finally see something entertaing on this god forsaken channel. Expand
  2. Don't think we should review this until the season is over. I have had some good laughs, but wont know if this is a true come back until the end of the season. Collapse
  3. One of the worst and least funny shows in a long time. It wasn't funny back in the 90's either. The creator of this show is an idiot. There is no reason for anybody to be watching it. Expand
