    Quoted from LyonsRonnie1:

    They're going to water this down so much for our modern PC culture, there's no way in hell this show is going to work or be funny like it was. I hope I'm wrong.

    People saying this must not remember the show or the characters. They’re delightful, simple, innocent morons. They never did or said anything offensive. Their worst controversy was some moron kid who lit himself on fire & his mom blamed the show. They had a PG-13 movie. This is going to be on the same network as South Park. I wish the people offended at the offended could offer one bit of Beavis humor that anyone would blink at today.

    Mike Judge would not revisit these characters if they had to change. The reboot from a few years back was great & exactly how it was....it “failed” because MTV viewers don’t care about animation.

    Let’s come back here in a year or so when it airs, you’ll see I’m right. I bet the first episode is about how everyone at school is offended by them & they are oblivious.

    Quoted from toyotaboy:

    My brother worked for viacom while they were making this game. There were 3 hidden easter egg videos on the cd-rom:

    Who’s your brother? I worked at Viacom as a tester - that’s the first game I worked on.

    Quoted from LyonsRonnie1:

    Maybe you haven't been watching t.v. lately, or been on the internets.
    Here's a guy way back in 1994 saying they're racist because they talk when the rap videos are playing.
    https://lists.h-net.org/cgi-bin/logbrowse.pl?trx=vx&list=h-pcaaca&month=9407&week=b&msg=EdkhNCB8ChkTbmKfYCwqeA&user=&pw=
    They frequently were accused of making racist asian jokes, but that might be politically correct by now.
    Here's a newstory from the last time they were on the air, where people were blaming them for inspiring racists to target a rapper:
    https://www.tmz.com/2011/12/03/beavis-and-butt-head-so-cold-in-the-d-threats/
    so I'm sure plenty of people will find plenty of things to accuse them of, the show was way too funny and every good joke basically breaks down to "I can't believe you said that". Hopefully I'm wrong and everybody will be cool with it.

    You’re always going to have someone pissed at something. That’s not the point. We still live in a world where R rated comedy exists. Adult cartoons still exist that are far more edgy and button-pushing than B&B ever were. We don’t remember B&B’s rumor due to these occasional minor bits that might not play today. Culture and humor change and evolved every decade, but their stupidity and antics are relatively timeless...that’s why they’re coming back.

    I just find it really funny that people are instantly assuming B&B in 2021 won’t be good cuz of “the offended”...it’s going to be ok the same net as South Park. Mike Judge does not NEED to do this...he’s got other shit going on. He’d only do it if it was funny.
