SAN DIEGO (AP) - Nearly two decades after their heyday, Beavis and Butthead are coming back.
Creator Mike Judge says the ever adolescent, trash-talking duo will return to MTV in the fall.
Judge came to Comic-Con to talk about the reboot of his beloved animated characters and offer a peek at the new season, which is set to premiere in October.
In their new incarnation, the two perennial teens - still wearing their AC/DC and Metallica shirts - riff on music videos, YouTube submissions and MTV shows such as "Jersey Shore" and "Teen Cribs."
"They're also watching UFC fights," Judge says.
The 48-year-old writer, who also voices many of his characters, says that besides Beavis and Butthead, he hopes to tackle live-action dramas in his creative future.
Comic-Con continues through Sunday.
