How to watch

Beavis and Butt-Head began as a crude animated short and turned into an MTV phenomenon, with two clueless teens mocking music videos and stumbling through misadventures in Highland, Texas. The franchise later produced the spin-off Daria, a feature film, a 2011 revival and a 2022 comeback that finally lets the duo grow up, sort of.

🕐 Release Order

Release order shows how the franchise evolved from a festival short to a cultural institution.

1. Frog Baseball (1992)
2. Beavis and Butt-Head (1993)
3. Beavis and Butt-Head Do America (1996)
4. Daria (1997)
5. Daria: Is It Fall Yet? (2000)
6. Daria: Is It College Yet? (2002)
7. Beavis and Butt-Head Season 8 (2011)
8. Beavis and Butt-Head Do the Universe (2022)
9. Mike Judge's Beavis and Butt-Head (2022)

The franchise mostly runs forward in time, though Daria is a separate spin-off that follows Beavis and Butt-Head's sarcastic classmate after she moves to Lawndale.

📖 Story Chronology

Do the Universe opens in 1998 and sends the duo through a black hole to 2022, which leads straight into the Paramount+ revival.

1. Frog Baseball (1992)
2. Beavis and Butt-Head (1993)
3. Beavis and Butt-Head Do America (1996)
4. Daria (1997)
5. Daria: Is It Fall Yet? (2000)
6. Daria: Is It College Yet? (2002)
7. Beavis and Butt-Head Season 8 (2011)
8. Beavis and Butt-Head Do the Universe (2022)
9. Mike Judge's Beavis and Butt-Head (2022)

Which Order Should You Choose?

Release order is the best way to go. You do not need to watch every original episode before the 1996 movie, but having a feel for the characters makes Do America much funnier. Daria can be enjoyed on its own whenever you like. Make sure you watch Do the Universe before the 2022 series, since it sets up the time-displaced duo.
