VH1? I like that station better than MTV, anyway. Too many hormones on MTV.

What's the point?
They can't air 90% of the videos being produced these days anyhow.
They have to bleep out the dirty words, and they have to blur the naughty bits.
It just isn't worth the trouble.

MTV sucks big freaken donkey hooves anymore.
Theres nothing worth watching on there at all.. especially for people like me who like rock..
and the only "rock" that they "think" they play on there is Limp Bizkit..
Dont even get me started on how absolutely sucky Limp Bizkit is.... well Fred Durst anyway..
MTV2 is good stuff.. Its the only station I watch when I wanna actually see videos I might enjoy..
MTV SUCKS!!

i've caught MTV2 several times and can say that its pretty awesome but the absolute best i've seen to date is german MTV. it kicks so much ass. not only do they play viedos, they play videos that i like. there is not much of that teeny bopper crap and there are very few shows.
on occasion i've been known to pull out my old tapes of Nick Rocks if i'm feeling nostalgic but i mainly trade videos online with friends. that's the only way to see the type of videos i like.

From what i have seen off the satelite here in Canada, MTV has turned into a lifestyle station aimed at Teens.

MTV
does play videos at specified times. You have to look it up in the TV Guide though.. the slots dedicated to showing just videos are very small.
I get sucked into watching MTV if Road Rules or some other stupid show is on and then I hate myself for having wasted all that time watching such supremely stupid shows.
I have to admit to loving the bios on VH1 though. hehe
Just saw one on Rick Springfield the other day. Rick... ~sigh I remember wanting to be Jesse's girl.

Alright, now you got me started.
MTV went jackass a long time ago.
MTV was so cool when it first came on, the whole idea of watching bands for 24 hours a day had me hooked. I could sit all day watching this stuff. It was a big shot in the arm to the music biz cause it ushered in some new and different kinds of music you wouldn't have been exposed to if radio was your only source. The earliest videos were cheaply made and focused on the band itself, and slowly became the big budget, slicked up short films that are more about the director's vision than the groups themselves. Blame Michael Jackson. I lost interest in MTV years ago because it quit being about music.
Before MTV, the only way to see a band was to physically go SEE them. A lot of times you didn't even know what they looked like, and didn't know what to expect, so that mystery was there. I have a hard time imagining Limp Bizkit, or any of these other punks can go into an arena and kick total ass like Van Halen or Boston even. Maybe because of the lack of music on MTV, the mystery is back. I wouldn't know cause I'm old.
I like the "Behind the Music" thingies, but some of them should be called "Who Were They Anyway?" somebody is sitting on a huge vault of great old concert footage, and all we're getting is little snippets here and there. I'd love to see a whole concert all the way through without some talking head "expert" telling me why I'm supposed to like it, but that wouldn't keep the interest in today's short attention spans. I'm done whining now.
Thanks Siren.
