Iconic duo Beavis and Butt-Head are gearing up to make a serious comeback to television. The creator of the series, Mike Judge, will return to head the project which will be on Comedy Central.
Details of the deal include a lock for two seasons for Comedy Central that was made with Mike Judge and 3 Arts Entertainment. Potential spin-off shows and specials are also included in the deal as well.
We are thrilled to be working with Mike Judge and the great team at 3 Arts again as we double down on Adult Animation at Comedy Central. Beavis and Butt-Head were a defining voice of a generation, and we can’t wait to watch as they navigate the treacherous waters of a world light-years from their own.
Chris McCarthy, president of Entertainment & Youth Group at ViacomCBS Domestic Media Networks
Beavis and Butt-Head on MTV were a staple on 90’s era television sets and pioneered cartoons geared more towards teens and adults. The show was both controversial and ground-breaking as they incorporated popular music as well as off-the-wall antics.
