LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Mike Judge's 'Beavis and Butt-Head' is back for Season 2 on Paramount+. The upcoming adult animated series brings back the iconic 90s cartoon duo and they are dumber than ever as they set out on a quest to befuddle common sense and torment one another through a series of insane escapades.

Mike Judge created, wrote, voiced, and directs the animated series, which is executive produced by the creator along with Lew Morton, and Michael Rotenberg, as well as Chris Prynoski, Shannon Prynoski, Ben Kalina, and Antonio Canobbio for Titmouse. Last year, Judge revealed that 'Beavis And Butt-head' had been picked up for a two-season run, which was accompanied by the release of the film 'Beavis And Butt-head Do The Universe,' which made its debut on Paramount+ on June 23.

Season two of Mike Judge's 'Beavis and Butt-head' will follow the story of two cartoon teenagers; Beavis and Butt-head known for their nasal voice laughs and love of heavy metal.
