10 TV Shows You Didn't Know Were Being Revived

6. Beavis And Butt-Head

Much like The Ren & Stimpy Show, Beavis and Butt-Head is another adult-driven animated series soon to return to our screens.

Of course, this isn't the first time that these two socially-awkward, music-obsessed figures have been revived, for 2011 saw an eighth season of the series arrive after the show's initial seven-season run originally came to an end back in 1997.

Last July saw Comedy Central announce its plans to bring back Beavis and Butt-Head, with a two-season order announced at that point in time. The early word on this return is that the titular twosome will find themselves in a Gen Z world that will offer up themes relatable to fans both old and new.

Creator, writer, director and the voice of the title characters, Mike Judge will return in those roles for this revival. After all, it would be pretty impossible to bring Beavis and Butt-Head back to life with Judge's involvement.

Not just are we getting at least two more seasons of Beavis and Butt-Head - which will start to air in the second half of this year - but last month also saw the news that a new Beavis and Butt-Head movie is also being developed for the Paramount+ streaming service.
