The nice thing about a revival like this is that, if it sucks, you can ignore it more easily because the original run is already a complete piece.

And, if it manages to be good, that’s all gravy.

I thought they would just pick up where they left off. Pull a Simpsons where everyone stays the same age forever. I don’t really care for a new dynamic. Our current timeline sucks 😂 Plus that means cottons probably dead.

Plus that means cottons probably dead.

Mild SpoilerCotton died in the original run. There was a whole episode about it.

Though I do hope Buck Strickland is still kicking lol. The man was a hot mess, but he had some hilarious moments.

Nooo Ladybird is dead then. 😭

[-] NatakuNox@lemmy.world 13 points 2 weeks ago

You shut your mouth! She's at a farm

[-] sploosh@lemmy.world 34 points 2 weeks ago

Cotton dies in the last season of the original run. Dude's been dead for years.

[-] WhyIAughta@lemm.ee 4 points 2 weeks ago

To be fair I may not have made it till the last season. 2009 was a rough year 😂

[-] Zahille7@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Dale blows up Hank's shed as tribute for Cotton iirc

[-] alaphic@lemmy.world 21 points 2 weeks ago

Really? I mean, I liked KotH as much as the next guy but I honestly can't think of much the original series left unsaid that we desperately need to hear at this point... Right?

(Unless they've managed to somehow resurrect Brittany Murphy... In which case Mike Judge can literally closed-fist punch my mother in the face as frequently as he wants, idegaf.)

My biggest hope is that since brittany Murphey and Tom petty have passed, they will tragically kill off luanne and lucky in a truck accident so that Peggy and hank will be raising Lasagna Grace. I really want dee dee to have abandoned GH too, since cotton died, so since Peggy and hank never had more kids, they just adopted GH and Gracie. That's what I want this show to be about. I've been hoping this since it was first announced.

I'm surprised by how excited I am for this show to come out!

[-] TORFdot0@lemmy.world 7 points 2 weeks ago

It’s going to be a cash grab. I will be skipping. Maybe I’ll watch it later after the Hulu run finishes and reviews of it in its entirety are available

[-] Stern@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

The newer Beavis and Butthead's were alright but not amazing. Of course it was also decades since I watched the originals, so maybe I changed too. To that end I don't expect new KotH to blow my socks off.

[-] slaneesh_is_right@lemmy.org 3 points 2 weeks ago

I was excited for Beavis and Butthead, i watched one or two episodes and it wasn't bad per se, but i just kind of didn't care.

[-] magnetosphere@fedia.io 9 points 2 weeks ago

Hmm. The article is definitely PR, but if it turns out that these people are genuinely as excited as they sound, we might end up with something worth watching.

[-] Maeve@kbin.earth 6 points 2 weeks ago

I haven't watched TV in a very long time. I would probably watch this, though. I loved that show.

[-] jawa22 5 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

They could also show us Beavis and Butthead as adults. I'd be interested to see the take on that.

Edit: typo

[-] Stern@lemmy.world 12 points 2 weeks ago

Beavis and Butthead had flash forwards in their recent series where they were adults and also ones where they were elderly.

[-] Mycatiskai@lemmy.ca 7 points 2 weeks ago

Beavis gets his hands on too much sugar, transforms into Cornholio then cracks open a box of powdered fentanyl Todd hid in their house, killing both him and Butthead.

[-] modus@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Have you seen the two new seasons? They did that. And it's awesome.
