This pissed me off to no end

I've heard rumors that MTV and VH1 used to play these things called "music videos". Apparently, "musicians" and "pop stars" would produce this sound called "music". This "music" would then be played over a corresponding video. Supposedly, they were all the rage at one point in time.

Nah, I think Mythbusters disproved that once.

^^^What they said above. Guy probably just wants his girlfriends to be good in bed and light his cigarettes. Brains aren't required or even wanted.

On VH1 I caught an episode of Rock of Love Charm School or whatever it's called. The pink-haired girl, I forget her name, is such a conniving bitch but she's hot as hell, and the show's just one hour-long chickfight.

Brandi C? Yeah. I really dislike her. These girls are television representatives of women in America and they are just UGH! I'm so glad that my boyfriend doesn't expect me to act dumb and look super skinny. He likes me for being driven to get my doctorate and having some meat on my bones. He tells me in an Italian accent "Eat! Eat! You too skinny!"

Yep, some of us old farts remember those days. In fact, I even heard that MTV used to stand for "Music Television."

Imagine that!

VH1 still plays music videos.....at 3 am.

I think those shows are funny, and I watch most of them. They are what they are. But then again, I get judged and mocked by coworkers for watching those shows, even though I would never join a reality show Charm School or any of those trashy MTV dating shows.

if the music video killed the radio star, reality TV went texas chain saw massacre on the music video.

of course it's pretty dealing when my two favorite reality shows are "Drawn Together" and "Total Drama Island".

The only reality show I'd go on would be Survivor, just to laugh at all the people with no survival skills.

Whoo, I'm not the only nerd who hides in the dark and watches Total Drama Island when no one's looking *cough*

Technically, it is a cartoon...

Though if Chris were real I'd be all over that...

I remember that too. When I was younger, we didn't have cable, so when we stayed overnight at my Grandparents, we'd sleep in the living room, and watch 'videos' all night. There was also 'World Premiere Wednesday' when an musician would a new video out, they would show it every hour. I think the beginning of the end was when "The Real World" started.

I think it was before that even. When I saw them airing non-music stuff back in the late 80s, like Monty Python's Flying Circus, and those stupid game shows like "Remote Control", I thought to myself that was the beginning of the end.

Sadly, I was right, and it got much worse, with the introduction of those so-called reality shows.

Yeah, but it's so hard to find the right melody for that line...

When I was in college I babysat for a family near my house during the summers; the kids were about 7 and 4 when I started sitting for them. One day I had MTV on while I was waiting for them to get home from camp (they still played videos then). When they got home the older one said "this isn't VH1, is it? We're not allowed to watch VH1." I said, "No, of course not.."
