Beavis and butthead virtual stupidity tvropes how to#
(My personal favorite storyline involved the two forgetting how to urinate.) Both characters were absolutely moronic and functionally illiterate, and plots were usually based around the two, through their stupidity, creating or entering into some sort of situation that they were then completely unprepared to deal with. Heavy sugar or stimulant consumption would bring out his alter ego, "The Great Cornholio", a madman of vaguely latin background constantly in search of " TP for bunghole". Radically unstable, he would veer from complete randomness to bursts of genius and back again.


Beavis, a blond in a Metallica shirt with a heavy overbite and a high-pitched laugh, was the "inspiration" of the pair. Butthead, with dark hair, braces, and an AC/DC shirt, was what passed for the leader and calm head of the group, though that's not saying much. The boys went to school at Highland High, worked at Burger World, sat on Butthead's couch and watched TV, and otherwise attempted to entertain themselves, or claim and assert a "coolness" they never had a chance at. The focus of the show were the eponymous characters of Beavis and Butthead, two stupid friends living in the town of Highland, which appeared to be somewhere along the rural-suburban border of a Great Plains state.

The first episode aired in March of 1993, and the show lasted 7 ambiguous "seasons", to the final episode in late November of 1997, tossing off a movie ( Beavis & Butthead Do America), a spin-off show ( Daria), a collaboration with Cher ( I Got You Babe), several video games, tons of merchandising, and a host of pop-culture references along the way. Their popularity led the "music" network to offer Judge a show which he, starving artist indeed, took them up on. Beavis and Butthead began as a pair of animated shorts by then-unknown cartoonist Mike Judge, first aired on MTV's mixed animation show, Liquid Television.
