The entire “Beavis and Butt-head” catalog is not available anywhere – well, legally at least. And that’s sad. In this episode, we discuss why we need the complete series, or at least as complete as can be made, to be available to buy. And we directly appeal to series creator Mike Judge for his influence to make it happen.

The Beavis and Butt-head music video reactions were a staple of the show, especially in its early run. However, the Highland duo didn’t have the chance to react to a ton of videos that are close to our hearts, especially videos from the 1998-2010 era. We explore which videos we would have loved to have seen Beavis and Butt-head react to, with a focus mostly on that era but with a couple nods to some missed opportunities, both in the 1990s and now.

The videos discussed in this episode:

Everything from “Sit your ass down, Lars!” to “Check out the nads on that pig!” has come from one area of Beavis and Butt-head – the music video reactions. We each compiled a list of our 10 favorites (and then kept them secret from each other until the recording of this episode) and try to figure out what makes a reaction timeless, memorable and quotable. Oh, and there’s some stuff about falling in love in this episode, too. Thanks, Pantera… now get out there and mow that lawn!

Many of us have milestones we hit in our early adulthood: career, stability, residence, love. Did Beavis or Butt-head achieve any of those? Your hosts Char and Patrick explore how the duo might have lived during the only span of time that the show has avoided. We will also spend more time than necessary trying to answer maybe the most important question we can ask: Did Beavis and Butt-head ever score?

Let’s be honest – most of the time, we’re laughing AT Beavis and Butt-head for the situations in which they find themselves. However, sometimes an episode brings out something in us (Empathy? Pity? Fear?) where we actually end up feeling bad for the boys. From failed love to painful situations to existential crises, Beavis and Butt-head have had their fair share of such experiences. We break down the ones that made us feel the worst – well, as bad as you can feel for two animated dumbasses.

Beavis isn’t always an idiot, and Butt-head isn’t always a sociopath. Sometimes, we get to catch them doing good things. Usually by accident, but occasionally on purpose, the dumbass duo has given us some memorable moments when they were actually contributing to humanity! We break down our favorite such moments, including Beavis and Butt-head showing care for animals, helping someone through their worst moments, creating moving works of art, and unironically saving the world.

It’s not opinion, it’s fact: The early episodes of Beavis and Butt-head are awful. We have the data to prove it… and the chance to dive deep and explore why the first three seasons of this show do not stand the test of time. From the expectations of animation (sadly, we bring up “My Pet Monster”) to the challenge of teaching a whole staff of writers and animators your vision (and, well, figuring out what that vision is), we try to explore why it took Beavis and Butt-head 60 episodes to find its footing.

When misfits Beavis and Butt-head were first introduced to the world – first via Frog Baseball as part of the “Extra Sick and Twisted” compilation, later by the show’s premier on “Liquid Television” and then the first bits of the standalone series – critics did NOT know what to make of them. Some got it right; some were way, way off. With 30-plus years of retrospect, we take a look at those early critiques, giving praise to those who could see the good things coming and giving hell to those who couldn’t.

Some people come into our lives forever; others are there for just a few minutes. This episode is a tribute to the latter – people who only appeared once in the world of Beavis and Butt-head. From Rabid Ron to Gus Baker to (several) characters who don’t even get a name, we dive into our favorite folks who brightened Beavis and Butt-head’s world for a moment and then disappeared forever.

The world of Beavis and Butt-head stretches well beyond the two eponymous main characters. Who else in Highland makes it the special place we know and love? This episode is dedicated to them – some of our favorite side characters in the show. Daria, Buzzcut, Tom Anderson… and more! We’ll start the list of people who round out Highland, and we’ll count on you to help us finish it! (And we’ll expose Char’s biggest unknown bit of Beavis and Butt-Head trivia.)
