I'm sorry but i really need to post on this. The last time I remember seeing any actual music on this station was back in 96 - back when they played a bit of decent material like Tool and Soundgarden. Now it's all reality TV and shows with teen idols who will be forgotten in two or three years. Who else shares my desire to go and rain sulphur on the simpletons who run this miserable excuse for a music station? |
||||||||

It has all gone a bit wank these days. Less and less music and more and more crap shows. The only TV station I watch now is some low budget effort that appears to be playing a lot of British hip hop and garage (so bad that you can sit and just piss yourself laughing) |
||||||||

|

Yeah MTV is shitty now.....not what it used to be. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
See? That's just not right. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I blame it on Viacom partly. |
||||||||
|

|
|
Did you ever get Partyzone with Simone Angel over in the states? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I don't remember ever hearing about such a show - and since rave-oriented events are being illegalized in several areas, i wouldn't be surprised if this recent war on ecstasy had to do with its failure to arrive here. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
Nah it was from way back when....at least 10 years ago...I still have the section where they recommend new releases and I Care Because You do was followed by one of the Terrordrome releases...it was a really diverse program. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh 10 years ago? no then, because i could actually stand MTV then, and I don't remember seeing such a show, which is too bad, because I would have welcomed it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Anyone remember the X-Mix shows? Some of them where quite good. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I remember when MTV2 first came on, it was the bastard child of MTV. Nothing but music, and some of it VERY good. It was a refreshing alternative to MTV's usual bullshit. Now MTV has ruined it too. The only station I can stand watching now for more than 5 minutes is MuchMusic, but I can't stand %75 of the music they play. Go figure. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah it was MTV Europe back then - With Simone and (decent) Party Zone and things... Those X-Mix videos were awesome - I saw a site you could order them from the other day... MTV these days makes me physically aggressive! Hearing those same crap pop songs all the time affects me in a similar way to watching documentaries on animal cruelty/fox hunting etc... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes, MTV give me homicidal urges as well. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
is that station still around? loathe do I |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i hate tv in general. however, i am an AVID movie fan :] |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
But without Mtv where would we go to learn what is kool and hip? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I was watching mtv 2 a moment ago and they played plaid - eyen and manitoba - juggernutted. Not bad going then they followed it with crap, oh well. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes not a big tv fan either theres not much i watch on it, videos mainly. television is chewing gum for the eyes. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
TV is fucking painful. It's amazing how bad it is. I can't express it. Jesus, people are so fucking retarded. They have no shame. FUCK. It's even worse when you're stoned, or shrooming. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, i barely watch TV anymore except for comedy central. |

My TV is never on except during hockey season, Conan O'Brien, and video gaming. And sometimes Big Brother. Oh lord, I'm so ashamed to admit that. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
BIG BROTHER?! *punches Ophecks in the stomach* ;D |
||||||||
|

nothing is as good as it once was. flowers used to smell nicer, cakes used to taste nicer, and you can't get those iced biscuits with different sports on them anymore |
||||||||

Remember Ray Cokes? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

"MTV symbolizes the decay of modern society" Haha....well, shit. |

I like music videos, and I used to like MTV. But now it's nothing but the Real World and stupid retrospective shows containing people talking endlessly about othe non-music related shows that have aired in the past on MTV. I find it annoying that I now have to pay extra on my cable subscription to get MTV2 so that I can see what should be shown on MTV1. Gah! |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
Hey xlr...don't see you round here much no mo'. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
WHAT THE FUCK IT THIS!? there's a show on here now called MTV Bash - is this a show about MTV presentors!? JESUS! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
MTV Bash? I don't know this show MTV New is a nice program. |

The 'golden age' of MTV here in the UK ended when MTV UK was separated from MTV Europe. MTV is shit these days, I think MTV itself pretty much gave up showing music a few years ago and hived it off to various sub-channels. MTV2 (or M2 as it was) started out great, then replaced 90% of what was good with nu-metal, so I kinda gave up there. The others aren't really worth mentioning. Anyway, there is hope for music from an unlikely quarter - Sky. They launched 3 music channels of their own last year. Now, Scuzz and Flaunt are shit, but someone clearly showed savvy when they created The Amp on channel 469. They, unlike MTV, realised that nu-metal is *not* alternative music so The Amp is blessedly shit-free. They may or may not play music you like, but at least it's music you can respect. Worth checking out. |

i guess i should praise myself lucky to not know the majority of those |

I like the Beyonce and Christina tracks. This reminds me. Total Request Live (TRL). It's supposed to be MTV's daily chart, their flagship show and even there they can't play more than 90 seconds of a video. Wankers. |

what about smash hits, kiss tv, or the box? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ah yes - the usual MTV brand of grade-A crap. Hence my point. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
You mean THE BOX, the all-request station? That's STILL AROUND?! I haven't seen it in years. They played some good stuff on that station, like Primus and Nine Inch Nails... |

TRL makes me want to inflict massive chemical genocide on a yard of schoolchildren. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah we have that station as well....I used to request brekadance videos for a report I did in high school on breakdancing. nowadays it's just the usual commercial poppy/hip-hoppy shit though |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that's too bad - so they're ruined too, eh? even radio sucks where I'm at - half of the stations in Dallas/Fort Worth are controlled by ultra-terrible Clear Channel - so of course lots of commercials and even worse music. We don't have any electronic station out here. Just an hour of a piss-poor selection of dance music by a shit DJ on some local independent station. |
