[adrotate banner=”1″]Supersize Me
The boys discover Morgan Spurlock and his documentary Supersize Me, largely because he has a hot babe with him at a premiere. So they decide to eat nothing but Burger World food for 30 days. They gain more and more weight, while Mr. Van Driessen gets them a documentary crew following them, and various corporate CEOs run tricks to not get blamed for the epic obesity.

Riffs:
Teen Cribs – WTF? never heard of this show. Rich bratty kids show off their place, the boys confused and think it’s Teen Mom.
Jersey Shore – Snooki’s dating preferences lead to much mockery, and their own lists

Bathroom Break
Butthead discovers that he got paid to poop when he was in the restroom, so the boys spend all their time at work in the restroom, as the Burger World slowly devolves into chaos.

Riffs:
Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros – Kisses over Babylon – The discussion turns to Jesus, and the audience pefering to get shot than to listen to the song

[adrotate banner=”1″]Drones

On a class field trip to a military base, Beavis and Butthead find the empty control room to drones operating in Afghanistan and on base. Although they cause problems, the story seems somewhat rambling like it wasn’t enough material to fill 20+ minutes and it just sort of ends. Mr. Van Driessen gets more and more disheartened as the military base commander talks of all the violent things the military does. This probably should have stayed a shorter episode. The most notable part is the confirmation that Daria moved away during one of the video riffings (after Beavis is correct from his statement that she killed herself!)

Riffs:
Deadmaus – Ghosts n Stuff – The discussion turns to grief counseling, along with a story that shows Beavis was drugged and raped
MGMT – It’s Working – Beavis’s mom tried to lose him in Ikea as a kid, but she got lost and kept bumping into him
Jersey Shore – The terms used on the show are confusing and causes discussion between the boys. Beavis cracks the code, but isn’t smart enough to remember what he said.
Benny Benassi – Satisfaction – sexy girls doing construction gets the full attention of the pair.

[adrotate banner=”1″]Holy Cornholio

One of two longer episodes that aired the same night in an hour block, featuring the return of the Great Cornholio! This was the episode that got sneak peeked all over the net.

Beavis gets a toy soldier drilled into his hands and goes to the hospital. There, he’s given painkillers that he takes too many of and becomes the Great Cornholio. Running rampant, he is mistaken for the returning soul of a cult’s deceased leader. The boys are taken back to the compound, where the cultists try to decipher the meaning of Cornholio’s desire for TP.

Eventually, Beavis returns to normal, and Beavis and Butthead grow bored of the encampment and demand to go home. The next day, when the females of the camp are prepared to have the two share their sacred essence (have sex with them), the two are annoyed and misunderstand, sending Stewart in their place, as Stewart cheers.

Riffs
Jersey Shore – One of the girls brings back a waiter to the home in Italy to have sex with, and gets mocked by the men. Bleh.
T-Baby – It’s so cold in the D – The boys question if this is the Real Housewives of Detroit, then dance to the music because it rules
Cage the Elephant – No Rest for the Wicked – They spend much of the video knowingly talking about what “cage the elephant” really means.
Teen Mom – Some horrible teen mom gets a boob job and ignores her kid. She talks through her nose and is rightfully trashed by the pair.

[adrotate banner=”1″]And now let’s hit up the Second Episode of the revised Beavis and Butt-Head series!

Daughter’s Hand
Ignoring everything else, Daughter’s Hand features the return of Tom Anderson! It’s also hilarious! Watching an old time movie where a character asks for someone’s daughter’s hand leads to a perverted misunderstanding by the duo. The eventual conclusion features fisticuffs and the realization that the answer was right in front of them the whole time.

Riffs
16 and Pregnant – The boys riff on a show packed to the gills with people stupider than them (and they know it!) Also some good commentary about if one girl is a bad actor or a bad person.
True Life – I Have a Paranormal Ability – Even Beavis and Butthead are aware that this woman is a fraud.

Tech Support
The pair head to the abandoned drive-in, only to find it is now an office park. Confused, they wander inside and are put to work running the tech support for the computer company. Hilarity ensues. Beavis and Butthead are not particularly good at the job, and begin turning coworker Hameed into one of them after the boss mistakes their quickness on the phone for being good at the job. This ends in disaster as a massive power outage causes looting just as Beavis and Butthead figure out how to get porn on their work computer. I also enjoy the cat picture on the cubical wall by Beavis.

Riffs
Katy Perry – Firework – Beavis kind of likes the song, and as Butthead can’t let Beavis have any joy, he spends the rest of the song trashing him until Beavis kicks him in the crotch

[adrotate banner=”1″]The return of Beavis and Butt-Head is an event that will change America. Not really. But as someone who grew up with Beavis and Butt-Head and remembers all the controversy over the show, the return of the show is a blast of nostalgia and a time to reflect on how America has changed since the show left. What was once considered controversial will probably now be largely ignored as the show airs, with Southpark and other shows taking up the mantle of targets by busybodies with nothing better to do. Heck, there isn’t even an opening warning any more! MTV has graduated to not playing music videos, causing Beavis and Butt-Head to target both videos and the array of reality shows for their commentaries. This has the added bonus of letting us see actual real life people who are far stupider and reprehensible than Beavis and Butthead could ever be. It is a testament to Mike Judge’s vision…no, actually, it’s the same of a nation that people like that are given outlets and money and fame instead of mocked like they deserve. Will Beavis and Butthead save America by destroying the Jersey Shore? If we ever needed a hero, we need one now.

And now that the ridiculous introduction is out of the way, let’s get on with the show!

Werewolves of Highland
Beavis and Butthead watch a Twilight film and realize how much women love the romantic cheesy lines from the film. The Twilight even spills over into school, with Mr. Van Driessen mentioning how the Twilight vampires and werewolves are true antiheroes who are irresistible to women. So Beavis and Butthead get get the idea to become vampires and werewolves themselves! They spots a homeless dude at the mall and have him bite them. But instead of becoming werewolves, they become infected with a score of diseases.

Riffs:
MGMT – Kids – An awesome trashing of the bad parenting shown in the video. And yes, that’s Florida.
Jersey Shore – The boys give us a good slamming of JWOWW and her stories of her grandkids, along with the general terribleness of Jersey Shore cast
Skrillex – First of the Year (Equinox) – Beavis knows what a child molester looks like very accurately. The pair discuss what would actually be spoken on the call to 911 about this video.

Crying
A stray onion causes Beavis to tear up, leading to nonstop mocking by Butt-Head over his crying that continues for the rest of their lives. Sometimes simple episodes like this showcase how awesome the show is.

Riffs:
True Life – I’m Addicted to Porn – “porn porn porn porn porn porn porn porn porn porn porn porn porn porn porn porn porn porn porn porn porn”
LMFAO – Champagne Showers – The pair trashes them for spraying around expensive champagne while the economy sucks. Yes, Beavis and Butthead are the 99%. They also deal in philosophy with the statement by Beavis “Why were we born as us?” Makes you think.

All in all, a killer opening show, and a sign the series hasn’t changed a bit, but is still hilarious.

NOTE: For these reviews I will be using Butt-Head and Butthead interchangeably, because barely anyone types “Butt-Head” when talking about the show.
