MTV

Just as Frank D said, i agree 100%. But doesn’t the M in Mtv stand for music? Granted shows like Jackass & Ridiculousness are a welcome relief with everyday stupidity people exhibit everyday, everywhere but what about playing some music ?
I know there are other channels Fuse, Mtv hits, Mtv urban, VH-​1 & more but shouldn’t the main channel show some music videos like the top ones from the other channels? Like after 11pm so it could be used as party background ?
Mtv changed how music was perceived and aided many artists & the channel (in my opinion) should look to it’s history to make it in the future.

MTV in the 80’s was the greatest thing since sliced bread. There was a time when I raced home to watch a world premier video or live concert for your entertainment. Those original VJ’s of Martha, Mark, Alan, Nina & JJ Jackson ruled tv airwaves and changed the face of music for good and bad and how I lived.
However other shows defined MTV. Shows like the Headbangers Ball, Yo MTV Raps and later on THE JERSEY SHORE which defined the channel for a new generation and made me laugh at what morons people can be (Fist Pump)…
However I love the simple days of watching countless hours of videos in my bean bag chair at mom & dads home. Hopefully music & video all reestablish itself again but I doubt it.
But I lived it and I WANT MY MTV damn it!

MTV is now nothing more than a joke! I remember back in the 80s when I couldn’t wait to sit down, turn my MTV on, and watch videos all afternoon when I got home from school. I remember begging and pleading with my parents in the very early 80s to please please, pretty please get cable just so I could have MTV. Thank you, wonderful parents, for giving me my MTV!
I use to be proud to say, «I want my MTV!» For those of you who are too young, it is from an 80s song by Dire Straights called Money For Nothing. Can I say that anymore? Hell no. The videos are just gone. Where the hell did they go?
I’m not sure what this crap is they are playing nowadays. Juvenile Reality TV is all I ever see on this channel.
Poor MTV… I feel so bad for what they did to you. I feel bad for this generation who will never know what it’s like to be able to sit down and watch music videos all day long.

Visited MTV to see a live Nikki and Sara taping. Studio is really nice. Overlooks Broadway, has really large windows so you get a great view from every seat. They also filmed TRL here back in the day, so it was cool to visit. Everything was super organized. Security dudes were really friendly and helpful, and kept the line moving. Staff was also very nice and welcoming. The show it self was really funny and the «hype» guy was giving out t-​shirts during breaks. He was hilarious!
Over all… had a great time… looking forward to visiting MTV again!

You guys rock. I did have a great time visiting. Thank you for the VIP treatment.
PS — I hardly watch your channel. I’d rather be out doing something than watching commercials.

The TRL crowds are annoying. Consider this an extension of my annoyance-​with-​Times-​Square review. I give it an extra star because my ex once ran right into Pauly Shore as he was walking in, knocked him over on live TV. He was on the phone with me, and my little bro had MTV on at the time, so it’s totally a credible story. It also gives MTV a second star. What can I say, I’m easily amused.
