How young were you when you first watched it?

I feel special because everything that I know from the early 90's/80's I was exposed to through my older brothers and sisters. I was born '92 but I remember so many old shows that no one my age can remember. I still remember the days when my brothers would wake me up to watch this when I was 2. I hope this continues to run because it was the only thing that I watched on MTV back in the day and when it went off for 14 years, I didn't watch a thing on MTV until this came back. Yeah, unlike my generational counterparts, I reject the shows like Jersey Shore and shows alike. For 19 years old I'm straight up old school but there's really no other way to roll these days.

12, I'm born in 1980 and got hooked on the show when it first came out in early 1993

I was pretty young, maybe 4 or so, my dad would let me watch it with him late at night, much to the chagrin of my mom

25 years young back in 93, but I thought it more an adult cartoon at the time (pre-South Park), edgier than any other cartoon at the time. Nothing better after a late Friday night coming home to watch this early hours of the morning. At the time the only people I knew who watched it were my age or older. So we used to laugh over it all the time at work. And yes, MTV was already total crap by that time, nothing like it was in 81, so B&B was the only reason to watch MTV. I got this new B&B set on BluRay.. refuse to even turn even turn on a channel thats even near MTV now.

27! I loved coming home from work, having a few and catching "Aeon Flux" and B&B. Those were some of the best years of my life.

God lykke!

I was 7 going on 8 when I first watch Beavis and Butthead back in 93.

meh...everybody talks about nostalgia and don't get me wrong, I love the 80's and 90's, but they were really not that great. I mean, I watch Beavis and Butthead because there really wasn't anything like it. Nowadays, shows like B and B are a dime a dozen and can be seen even on regular network channels like Fox.

I also reading allot of hate for the "new brand" of popular music and i think it's uncalled for. Remember, those music videos BandB were making fun of were popular for their time as well.

and don't kid yourself...MTV has ALWAYS catered to the "kids" or as we were known back then, the MTV generation....we grew up, let the new kids on the block have their time....in 20 years they will be on some platform talking about how cool it was back in 2013...wrap your head around that.

I was 30 - well, still 29 in March of that year, I turned 30 the following June.

I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness, starving hysterical naked.

I was 20 year olds, as I first watched it in late '93 or early '94.

Either 5 or 6. When I first watched it, I was thinking something like "YAY! Cartoons on MTV!" I'm surprised my mom let me watch it at that age.

One man's waste is another man's... soap.

I was probably 6 or 7...I remember my parents would have MTV just playing in the background a lot, as they actually played songs and actual music videos a lot in those days. And ol' B & B would come on and I found it quite funny.

I was 24 when I first started watching it in 1993 my friend and I never missed an episode it is a shame they only released a small amount of shows on DVD.
