Beavis and Butt-head Do America is a 1996 animated comedy road film, based on the TV series, Beavis and Butt-head. It was produced by Paramount Pictures in association with Geffen Pictures and MTV Films, and co-written and directed by creator Mike Judge. The film grossed over $20 million in its opening weekend, and grossed a total of over $63 million in North America. This was MTV Films first film with Paramount and its last from Geffen Pictures. This was also MTV Productions' second film after Joe's Apartment. After a surreal Godzilla-esque dream, Beavis and Butt-head wake up to realize that... someone has stolen their television. The pair then embark on a quest to replace it. Then we see the opening credit sequence which is a take-off on the most popular 1970's cop movies and TV shows with Beavis and Butt-Head as hip ace sleuth Lothario detectives, sung by Issac Hayes. After several mishaps involving finding a television, they visit a low-quality motel that advertises "TVs in every room". There, they encounter Muddy Grimes, who is waiting for two hired hit men, the same guys who stole Beavis and Butt-head's television, to murder his wife, Dallas.
