Very funny!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Simon_J_Rodgers21 August 2012
This is one of the few VERY good episodes.

If I were to go into too much detail, I would really be spoiling things. But let's just say that it involves Beavis, Butthead, a telephone book and a man with an unusual name. As a result of his unusual name, he gets a load of prank calls from Beavis and Butthead and he eventually gets annoyed.

He then sets out for revenge and when he finally traces their number what does he do? As I said, I don't want to go into too much detail, but I can tell you that the end result is quite funny.

It is one of the greatest mysteries of all time why other people's misfortunes can be so funny but not when it is happening to you.

What am I talking about? Watch this episode and see. You won't be disappointed.

Warning: Spoilers
This classic episode begins one night when Beavis and Butt-head get a new phone book delivered to their house. They decide it might be fun to call some people, so while skimming through the names, they come across a man named Harry Sachz. After laughing uproariously about his name, the boys call up Mr. Sachz from the bathroom and flush the toilet when he answers. Harry immediately hangs up, so the boys decide to call him back, and this time Beavis tells him he sucks before flushing the toilet at him again. This goes on and on for the next two weeks, and by now, Harry Sachz is pretty annoyed. After a month of these non-stop calls, he finally wises up and gets Caller ID. So now after another of the boys' prank calls, he gets their number and calls them up for a change. He tells them they've won a free pizza and offers to deliver it, so he asks for their address, which of course they don't know, so Harry tells them to read the address off any mail they have lying around. Beavis picks up a letter he stole from Stewart's mail box and reads him the address. So, filled with a murderous rage, Harry heads out for Stewart's house.

Harry bursts in and accosts Stewart, until he sees his dad on the phone and quickly assumes he's the culprit. Harry tackles him and drags him feet first up the stairs where he holds him over the toilet numerous times, before finally taking his cordless phone and putting it somewhere where he's going to have a really hard time dialing it...where the sun don't shine. Now, I love how Mr. Stevenson told Harry that it was between him and Stewart and to deal with him. What a great father, eh? So, an ambulance is called and the beleaguered Mr. Stevenson is taken away, as his ass starts to ring. Beavis and Butt-head look on, but all they can think of is what was taking their pizza so long.

This one is pretty funny, Mr. Stevenson getting a phone shoved up his ass. I'm surprised that it wasn't so tight that the thing would fit. Fans of the series should definitely check this one out. As for Harry Sachz, you'd think he would have changed his number or had the police tap his phone, or even unplug the damn thing if he were getting non-stop prank calls for two weeks. Well, at least he finally got Caller ID, after a month.
