Another revamp resulted in the production of a third season, now renamed seaQuest 2032. Roy Scheider had been vocal in his anger of the show's new direction.

The show centers on two socially inept rock/metal-loving teenage boys, Beavis and Butt-head (both voiced by Judge), who live in the town of Highland, Texas. They seem to have no adult supervision at home, are woefully undereducated, and seem quite dim-witted. Although they are teenagers, they are young enough that they are barely through puberty. They attend high school, where their teachers are often at a loss as to how to deal with them, although in many episodes the two skip school altogether.

All parts of the Traces series are great! Of course this is forparticular tastes, but those who like it, like it a lot!
