more crude shorts!

continuing with the crude shorts that originated lasting series' theme, here's the first Beavis & Butthead short Mike Judge created that spawned and empire (and later King of the Hill). it was created for MTV's Liquid Television in 1992. the animation is very loose and alive:

Judge's thought on his early stuff: "For the most part, I feel pretty good about that stuff, even though I'm not a great animator. It looks funny in the way I want it to." this short, along with the next one, "Peace, Love, & Understanding," lead the way to the fulltime show on MTV. i think this one is a little bit more successful in the humor department than "Frog Baseball":



and, of course, we can't forget Seth MacFarlane...one of his very early shorts shows an early Brian and Peter. its a little long-winded:
