Mike Judge's Beavis and Butt-Head
Scored from 34 calibrated IMDb reviewers, each re-centered on their own rating baseline before the title is ranked. Cohort: TV Series · 2020s (3,070 peers).
Summary
Beavis and Butt-Head are two barely verbal, hard-rock-obsessed teenagers in Highland, Texas, drifting between Highland High, the Burger World fryer and Tom Anderson's yard, snickering at anything that sounds rude and pursuing a vague ambition to score. Mike Judge's Paramount+ revival puts them back on the couch to riff at the television, and adds segments dropping middle-aged versions of the pair into the present day, no smarter than they were as kids. Judge voices both leads, as he has since the MTV original, and the animation keeps the flat, cheap look of the 1990s series.
Released in 2022, Mike Judge's Beavis and Butt-Head is an animation, comedy and music television series. Episodes run about 22m. Its country of origin is listed as the United States. Its certificate is TV-MA.
Only 34 of its IMDb reviewers rate with enough spread for a personal baseline to be measured, so the calibrated figure rests on a thin sample; a broader pool of 37 reviewers with at least two reviews feeds the raw-average track. 3,069 other television series from the 2020s form the cohort it is ranked inside.
How the score was built
We compare the reviewers of this title against every other title those same people reviewed. Each review is scored relative to the reviewer's own baseline — a 7/10 from a hard grader sits well above their average, while a 7/10 from a generous grader sits below theirs. Every reviewer then counts the same, so the result is a calibrated consensus rather than a raw average.
- Global percentile
- Where Mike Judge's Beavis and Butt-Head lands against every title we rank.
- In-cohort percentile
- The same comparison narrowed to its cohort — titles of the same format released in the same decade. A 1970s film is judged against 1970s films, not against last year's streaming series. Ranked against TV Series · 2020s (3,070 titles).
- AI-adjusted percentile
- The same reviewer-normalized score, corrected for how much confidence the sample supports: thin samples are pulled toward the corpus average. Each title keeps the share n / (n + 53) of its measured distance from the average, where n is its calibrated-reviewer count, and the result is ranked on the same scale as the global percentile.53 is the median sample size across everything we rank. Here n is 34.
