Huh-huh-huh, they said comeback: Beavis and Butt-Head return

Beavis and Butt-Head, the two teen idiots who sparked controversy with their trademark guttural snickers and potty mouths in the 1990s, return to MTV Thursday in “Mike Judge’s Beavis and Butt-Head.” The original animated series aired from 1993-97, essentially sparking Congress’ deliberations to codify the TV parental guidelines that went into effect in 1997. From the clips I’ve seen of the updated series, the boys haven’t grown up at all, and they aim their snark at some awesome targets like “Jersey Shore” and “16 and Pregnant.”

“Mike Judge’s Beavis and Butt-Head” debuts at 9 p.m. Thursday on MTV.
