Ever wonder what those numbskulls Beavis and Butthead would think of Jersey Shore? Well, ponder no more. MTV is reviving Mike Judge's animated series about the hapless, teenaged metal heads -- and in a newly released clip, they're providing their typically juvenile commentary while watching Snooki and J-Woww discuss their sexual exploits.
Why bring back Beavis and Butthead after 14 years? “I felt like TV was getting too smart,” Judge told a Comic-Con panel, where he screened a lengthy preview of the new season, tentatively scheduled to premiere in October. The footage also included the boys watching 16 & Pregnant, Teen Mom and parts of the Twilight films.
Incorporating Jersey Shore was, of course, a no-brainer. "It felt like pay-dirt to me," said Judge. "I hadn’t seen it. I started watching the DVDs. I don’t feel good after watching it, but I kept watching it."
Obviously, new kids are watching MTV these days. (Theoretically, 14 years later, Beavis and Butthead fans have moved on to more mature fare.) So will the dopey duo be able to captivate a whole new generation?
"I like to feel like they’re kinda timeless," says Judge.
Really? What a bunghole. (Heh heh.)
