Mike Judge's "Beavis and Butt-Head"

In 1993, Mike Judge, creator of "Beavis and Butt-Head," and MTV knocked their heads together and launched a cartoon series starring a couple of lunkheads and unwittingly started an animated pop culture revolution. Now, "Beavis and Butt-Head" are coming back to MTV on Thursday, October 27 at 10:00 p.m. ET/PT to unleash upon "Jersey Shore," viral videos and more! See footage from the new episodes, and join Mike Judge as he discusses the duo's return to MTV! Fans who attend the panel will receive some sweet "Beavis and Butt-Head" swag.

Good Vibes

This half-hour coming-of-age comedy follows transplanted Jersey boy Mondo (voiced by Josh Gad) and his best bud Woodie (voiced by Adam Brody) as they surf the biggest waves, hit the wildest parties and chase the prettiest girls in Play Del Toro - a colorful California beach community. The all-star ensemble cast also features voice appearances by Debi Mazar as 'Babs' Mondo's mom; Alan Tudyk as 'Lonnie,' a burnt-out but wise beach bum; Danny McBride as 'Ms. Teets,' a massively overweight and inappropriate human sexuality teacher; Olivia Thirlby as 'Jeena,' the beautiful girl of Mondo's dreams; Jake Busey as 'Turk,' an obnoxious local surfer and bully; and Tony Hale as 'Wadska,' a charmingly nerdy and delusional friend.

The series was created by David Gordon Green ("Pineapple Express," "Your Highness") and is animated by Six Point Harness. Executive producers include Green, as well as Tom Brady ("The Simpsons"), Tom Werner ("Roseanne," "That 70's Show"), Mike Clements ("Life and Times of Tim," "Are You There Vodka, It's Me Chelsea") and Brad Ableson ("The Simpsons"). Clay Spencer serves as the executive in charge of production for MTV. "Good Vibes" premieres on MTV on Thursday, October 27 at 10:30 p.m. ET/PT.

"DEATH VALLEY"

MTV's horror-comedy "Death Valley" is a scripted series that follows the 'Undead Task Force' (UTF), a newly formed division of the LAPD, documentary-style, as they capture the monsters that roam the streets of California's San Fernando Valley. In a world where vampires, werewolves and zombies live freely, "Death Valley" is a fun, comedic non-stop thrill ride featuring chases, hardcore kills and bizarre encounters. The series airs Monday nights at 10:30 p.m. ET/PT on MTV.

"Death Valley" stars Tania Raymonde ("Lost"), Bryan Callen ("The Hangover"), Caity Lotz ("Mad Men"), Bryce Johnson ('Sleeping Dogs Lie"), Texas Battle ("Final Destination 3," "Dragonball," "Coach Carter") and Charlie Sanders (Funny or Die's "The Big Dog").

"Death Valley" is executive produced by Eric Weinberg ("Californication," "Scrubs"), Austin Reading ("Spike TV's Scream Awards," "FEARnet"), Julie Kellman Reading and Tim Healy. Spider One is co-executive producer. Tony DiBari is executive producer for MTV, and Matthew Parillo is the MTV executive in charge of production
