What is your favorite film and/or show created by Mike Judge (Office Space, Beavis & Butt-head, etc.)? For me, as much as I admire Beavis and Butt-Head, my favorite by him has to be his film Idiocracy.

So, let's hear them. What do you think his best bit of work is?

Office Space, definitely, although I do like a lot of his stuff.

For movie it's a tie between Office Space and Idiocracy. For TV show it's going to be King of the Hill.

Beavis and Butthead is a good show and movie. I went to see the movie in the theater when it was playing.

King of the Hill. It's the best animated sitcom ever (IMO at least).

I actually like Futurama and The Venture Bros better, but it's pretty damn close.

He also presents a rad showcase called The Animation Show I believe. Beavis and Butthead is Timeless.

I was raised on Beavis and Butt-Head so there is only one choice for me.

Beavis and Butthead, even though idiots, were damn-good music critics.

They would mock and make fun of almost everything. They were showing it recently on MTV2 with the music video scenes deleted where they are on the couch. That made it much better in my opinion.

My favorite episode is the one where they have dreams. They have a dream about being on the Enterprise bridge from "Star Trek: The Next Generation."

I think Mike Judge is great. I really liked Beavis and Butthead, King of the Hill and Office Space. I haven't seen Idiocracy yet. I've heard some criticism that it's something of a one-joke movie, but I think it's interesting someone fairly high profile went and made a movie about dysgenics!

King of the Hill never made me laugh out loud as much as the early Simpsons cartoons did, but I thought King of the Hill usually had better storylines.

One scene from King of the Hill that did crack me up was from an episode where Hank's showing some prospective clients around his offices, and he introduces them to his latest recruit, a slobbering drug addict. I wish I could find it on YouTube.

I never thought all that much of that old aspie favourite, Daria. She was good in Beavis & Butthead, but giving her her own show was a bit much. Perhaps she doesn't really count as a Mike Judge creation.

Definitely Beavis and Butt-Head, I saw King of The Hill and was never that impressed. B&B was by far the best Mike Judge production.

I like King of the Hill, Office Space, Idiocracy, and Beavis and Butthead do America.

I have never seen the Beavis and Butthead TV series.

You really should! It's hysterical! I have the entire Mike Judge Collection and I always watch it when I'm sick, because it cheers me up. :)
