The Film 

Those crazy kids Beavis & Butt-head are back to cause pain, damage, and destruction to anyone who even dares to get in their way in their latest DVD called: Beavis & Butt-head: Mike Judge’s Most Wanted.  This is yet another compilation, but not just any ordinary compilation of the television show.  This DVD features 20 of Mike Judge’s favorite episodes and also features a five minute preview of the new show from MTV.  Yes, the boys are back in town after a 14 year absence!

That’s what’s on the surface of this new DVD, but the real gist of it is that it’s another compilation of previously released material in a much smaller package.  The real reason why the DVD is attractive to begin with would have to be for the preview of the new Beavis and Butt-head season along with the uncut version of Frog Baseball and the one hour long featurette.  Yes, if you’re new to the world of Beavis and Butt-Head, this would also be a good DVD to get; a sampler of sorts.

Please be advised that the episodes are presented by themselves and they do not include any of the music videos from their broadcast showings.

Special Features 

Beavis & Butthead: Mike Judge’s Most Wanted contains the original UNCUT episode of Frog Baseball, which up until now, I had never ever seen.  It’s so weird, but it was the episode Mike Judge used to get his deal over at MTV.  It was animated in 1992.  There’s a preview of the upcoming new season, which is hysterical, and a really cool hour long featurette loaded with new interviews by Mike Judge and company.

• Scenes from the New Beavis and Butt-Head Season
• The Original Uncut “Frog Baseball”
• “Taint of Greatness: The Journey of Beavis and Butt-Head” Featurette

Final Thoughts 

I do not want to go so far as to say that Beavis & Butt-Head: Mike Judge’s Most Wanted is another cash grab, because that’s not entirely true.  The special features, I believe, are brand new to this DVD.  Yes, I will contend that the 20 episodes have already been released in the various volume sets that released several years ago.  If you’re a B & B newbie then this DVD will fit the bill nicely.
