Your Friday Video Link: It's a Beavis & Butthead Renaissance

 


This image below has been making the rounds on social media following this past weekend's Saturday Night Live.


It's Mikey Day and Ryan Gosling as two weird dudes who look a lot like Beavis and Butthead. 

Although they personally do not get the reference.  


What brought this odd sketch into the zeitgeist this week was the reaction of one of the cast members to Mikey's appearance.

The sketch involves a new program holding a town hall on the subject of Artificial Intelligence.  Keenan Thompson plays a professor being interviewed by a journalist played by Heidi Gardner.  The professor is distracted by the strange looking men behind the journalist who is trying to keep the conversation serious and focused on the topic at hand. 

Until Gardner gets a look at Day and....

Your Friday Video Link is that sketch.   


In subsequent interviews, Heidi Gardner is not happy that she broke that way, saying she's trained herself over the years of doing comedy to not break.

But there was just something about Mikey's expression that made her lose it.

Somewhere on the internet is a photo of Mikey and Ryan's Beavis and Butthead photo shopped in the courtroom behind Donald Trump with a caption that reads "Nice to Don Jr. and Eric in court to support their father." 

I could not find it again for this post.

Here's a BONUS Your Friday Video Link.  From the movie Beavis & Butthead Do America, here's the Red Hot Chili Peppers with their cover of "Love Rollercoaster".
