After going through a black hole, they re-emerge in our time, where they look for love, misuse iPhones, and are hunted by the Deep State. Their obsession with a docking simulator (huh huh) leads to a trip on the Space Shuttle, with predictably disastrous results. Van Driessen, who looks to have learned absolutely nothing, even after all these years, from the agonizing waves of casual torture these guys have inadvertently put him through. In 1998, Beavis and Butt-Head are sentenced to Space Camp by a creative' judge. Also keeping the old-school flame alive is hopelessly nurturing teacher Mr. Hey, at least they’ll never be caught dead rockin’ a Winger tee. As the boys’ unchanging attire suggests (do they ever wash those T-shirts?), AC/DC and Metallica remain evergreen signifiers of peak performance in their murky, unsupervised little minds. How will our skinny heroes navigate a world that’s changed a bit since they first dorked around their small-town Texas haunts? We don’t know, but time has thankfully stood still at least in the wardrobe department. Like a dim light bulb trapped in a Butt-Head thought bubble, the iconic animated series first flickered to life at MTV all the way back in 1993, winning fast acclaim as a stealthily satirical send-up of 1990s pop culture. Now going by the slightly-tweaked official name of Mike Judge’s Beavis and Butt-Head, the revived series marks the first time Butt-Head and the Great Cornholio have seen action in regular, bite-sized episodes since 2011, when a Season 8 revival picked up their suspended adventures at MTV.
