The original run of Beavis and Butt-head brought us five different Christmas-themed “episodes,” but make no mistake – these episodes aren’t just for watching in December! Our conversation meanders from our appreciation for “It’s a Wonderful Life” to how we missed the “Max Headroom” craze to the worst-best Christmas joke ever told to… well, you’ll just have to listen to hear the rest. Links we promised in this episode?

Some of our favorites got zero attention in our first episode on our favorite side characters, so here we are, back again with some of our favorite people who fill out the Highland social scene. From characters who had whole episodes based around their shenanigans to characters whose names are never even mentioned in the series, our second look at our favorite recurring characters in the series also touches on Winger, juvenile-hall romance and prank calls gone wrong.

The media landscape is rapidly changing, seemingly day to day. What does that mean for the future of Beavis and Butt-head? Well… Hosts Charlynn and Patrick are fairly pessimistic about the continuation of the show, and it has NOTHING to do with how good the show is and EVERYTHING to do with forces beyond the control of the show’s creators and producers.

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.

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.
