Look up “ABC rage”
Retrofuturism
When Beavis and Butthead originally aired, the duo skewered the music videos on MTV. Parents groups hated the show, it was the stupidest thing on television.
When the show rebooted in the 2010s, there weren’t enough music videos so they started skewering other MTV content: teen mom, jersey shore, etc.
It was amazing, because Beavis and Butthead were exactly the same, but as a viewer you realized that Beavis and Butthead were now the SMARTEST thing on MTV.
Don’t forget what they took from you.
I don’t know what happened in the rest of the world, but MTV Germany started showing the kind of Anime that didn’t fit the children’s afternoon program of other stations in the early 2000s. That’s how I got to know things like Ghost in the Shell.
