MTV Rant

[00Accord]

I was scrolling through the TV guide earlier and I noticed that there is no longer ANY show or time block where MTV plays videos anymore! Instead, everything from now until the foreseeable future is reality shows. Nothing but reality shows. I know that people have bitched about this in the past, but they at least used to have TRL and played videos overnight. Now there is nothing but bs.

/end rant

I agree. I miss when they actually still played videos. Real World: Brooklyn is pretty good though.

MTV has been dead for years when it comes to playing videos. unless of course you like watching music videos at like 8 in the morning or whenever they used to play them.

[00Accord]

yeah they don't even do that anymore.

[D S ohM]

If they do its very random. When they do you should record it. haha

My dad used to tape Friday Night Videos and Night Tracks back in the day. I need to find a way to get them onto my computer so I can upload them onto the net.
Ah yes, music videos recorded on VHS tapes, two relics from a better, happier time.

Doesn't MTV2 play videos? I think thats supposed to be more like the original channel...ie they still play(ed) Beavis and Butthead, Daria...etc

[capitlj]

MTV 2 was the dedicated music video channel for about a week, then they started with shows like Jackass and Punk'd. WTF!?!?!?!!??

[Jim]

There is MTV Jams, MTV3, MTV2, and many other channels that play MV most of the time...

They need to bring back "Headbangers Ball". Thats the only way I'd watch MTV again.

Now now dave, just don't take your alzheimers medication and you'll "think" you just got done watching headbangers ball after every nap....

[thrash]

HB actually played that video once upon a time. Drumming like that was ground breaking back in the day.

Dawn Patrol was where it's at. That's where I got all my music from when I was in middle school.
