If you are racking your brain on what to buy your sweetheart for Valentine’s Day (and who isn’t?), mark your calendar for Tuesday Feb. 14, when “Beavis and Butt-Head: The Complete Collection” arrives on DVD. Creator Mike Judge’s beloved animated slackers are back for hours of juvenile fun in this definitive 12-disc set. When Beavis and Butt-Head first appeared on MTV a quarter century ago, critics dismissed them as brainless couch potatoes who did nothing but watch TV and make lewd jokes about bodily functions. Today we know they were ahead of their time. Beavis and Butt-Head’s unique idiocy profoundly changed television, movies, pop culture and the world.
America’s favorite culture critics are back in this comprehensive new collection to tell us all exactly what sucks. Housing everything in one set for the first time ever, “Beavis and Butt-Head: The Complete Collection” includes all four volumes of the acclaimed TV series—including the adolescent boys’ triumphant return in 2011—as well as the Special Collector’s Edition of the fan-favorite movie “Beavis and Butt-Head Do America.” In addition, the 12-DVD set boasts a wealth of bonus material including “Taint of Greatness: The Journey of Beavis and Butt-Head” Parts 1-3, VMA appearances, a Thanksgiving Special with former MTV veejay Kurt Loder, the 1994-1996 Butt-Bowls, MTV 20th Anniversary Special, the original, un-cut “Frog Baseball,” a 2011 Comic-Con panel featuring Judge and moderator Johnny Knoxville, promos, montages, and more. The DVD boxed set has a suggested retail price of $46.99.
