Shut up, Beavis!
Ryan Gosling joined “Jimmy Kimmel Live” on Wednesday and name-dropped Sacramento as the place where the Beavis and Butt-Head lookalike characters that debuted on “Saturday Night Live” are from.
Gosling and “SNL” cast member Mikey Day’s recent sketch “Beavis and Butt-Head” received positive reviews with The Daily Beast even calling it one of the best of all time.
As part of the bit, the pair play “Dean and Jeff,” who look and dress like the juvenile cartoon characters from MTV’s “Beavis and Butt-Head” show from the 1990s. During the sketch, Heidi Gardner, the host of a livestreamed town hall event, breaks character repeatedly at the sight of Day as Butt-Head.
Gosling and Day reprised the characters this week at a red carpet event for the Los Angeles premiere of “The Fall Guy.”
When Kimmel questioned him about it, Gosling explained that Dean and Jeff are “both from Sacramento.”
“But they never met until recently,” he said.
“Dean works at a Chips Ahoy! factory. But not on the floor. He just does sort of analytics,” Gosling said, adding that, “He never gets on the floor. He never gets any cookies. It’s a bummer.”
He said that Jeff works for the Safelight auto glass repair company.
“They’re having their moment,” he said.
For the record, Sacramento can’t claim Beavis and Butt-Head. Creator Mike Judge has explained that those characters are based in Texas.
Chips Ahoy! cookies are baked in Chicago.
