The "radio and censorship" thread got me thinking....How many of you think that MTV has passed its prime?...whenever i get a chance to watch it there is no "Music Television"...Its always the damn Real World/Road Rules/Inferno....The only show i like is 8th and Ocean because Britt is smokin hawt. That is all

Cliffs: Has MTV passed its prime?

 

MTV has passed it's prime for showing music videos. They cater to a different audience now.

Personally I think they've always sucked regardless.

 

i couldnt tell you the last time i actually sat down and consciously turned on MTV...

 

Well i remember when i was like 12 or 13 and would visit my grandparents house...MTV would always play music videos back to back...and it was a good lineup...Now its always Road Rules or Realworld non stop.....The same shit happens every damn season everyone gets in a fight and its actually very uneventful....Then they come out with Inferno...Its totally stupid.

 

i love watchin the real world and the gauntlet and shit. find it very entertaining. yeh, they dont play music videos anymore, but thats why we have mtv2

 

have you guys seen that show "parental control?" omg that show pisses me off...I don't see how people can go off and do shit like that....they SAY some of them have been together for 1-2+ years and some of them go off and just forget it all after 1 date with another person....yes MTV is fucked up

 

^ i dont believe that show one bit. its gotta be fake

 

x2

 

MTV2 was created for viewers who wanted nonstop music videos..... pretty soon mtv2 was showing non-video shit

then they created MTV Hits... which is currently still showing only music videos

 

Which doesn't even come in for the majority of people - I only get MTv & MTV2 on my 160+ channel Dish Network setup. I watch Viva La Bam, Wildboyz, & Jackass reruns on MTV... and Fuse or Vh1 if I actually want to watch music videos.

I think MTV passed it's prime in like 1995.
