1993: "Beavis and Butt-head" premieres on MTV as a series. The show, originating from a 1992 short film by creator Mike Judge titled "Frog Baseball," would become a hit, running for 200 episodes over five seasons and spawning a feature film before ending in 1997. It would make a comeback with new episodes for one season in 2011.
