MTV bringing back 'Beavis and Butt-Head'

If "Dallas" and "Charlie's Angels" can make a comeback on TV, why can't "Beavis & Butt-Head" return, too?

On Wednesday, MTV said its popular animated show about channel-surfing, metalhead high school losers would return.

The half-hour comedy ran from 1993 to 1997 and was highly controversial for its time. Early episodes showed the boys' obsession with fire, which was quickly toned down by the censors. The show also is known for offering running commentary on music videos between animated shorts.

The series, created by "Office Space" director Mike Judge (who voiced both animated idiots), spawned the 1996 film "Beavis and Butt-Head Do America," which featured the voices of Bruce Willis, David Letterman and Demi Moore, and it spawned a spin-off called "Daria."

MTV execs said the new "Beavis and Butt-Head" episodes would begin airing this summer.
