i think MTV is trash for the mind... anyone with me? or what do you think about MTV?

I like CMT not MTV.

My thoughts on MTV are: if the station is supposed to be about music, then shouldn't they be airing music videos and music-related programs?

MTV - Music Television. They're supposed to play music vids so how come every time I turn over they've got f**king 'Road Rules', 'Jackarse', 'Wannabes', 'Real World', 'Becoming', 'Cribs'.......
Urgh! MTV sucks arse! Give me Kerrang! or P-Rock TV anyday!!

I like MTV2, They play the best music videos.

MTV is fine....but I watch muchmusic because I live in canada

Actually, I like MTV- they've made a few changes in the past year, including the addition of more video plays.
If you guys notice carefully, MTV airs video the entire night-time, daytime, TRL (4:00-5:00 p.m.,) Direct Effect (6:00- 8:00p.m., ?) PrimeTime Players, (8:00-9:00 p.m.)
The only reason why MTV airs other non-music shows is because they want to be diverse- a network that airs music 24/7 won't get a stable audience. MTV doesn't want to be a "only-music" channel, they want to be a source of entertainment, and real life shows for America's younger generation.
If you notice MTV only airs their non-music shows during 2:00-4:00, The 10-Spot, and weekends- which is the time most viewers are watching their programming.

Plus, I'm still a fan because I like watching, "The Real World," "Road Rules," "The Osbournes," "Big Urban Myth Show," "Cribs," and "Daria."

As far as music wise MTV sucks....MTV2 is ok sometimes but MTV just sucks.

I Hate MTV. Im not into Grundgey or Rappy stuff. Give me Tom Jones anyday!

Only thing i ever watch on MTV is WWE Heat. I Wish theyd bring back Beavis and Butthead though :(

I remember the late 80's when my brother used to watch it... nearly all music videos. I think that's what it should be. But since all the music videos are today is sex, naked pop queens, rap, and drugs... I just ignore MTV.

But the Urban Myth Show is kind of entertaining. I like the Osbournes as well. But that's it.

I stopped watching MTV when they cancelled "Beavis And Butthead."

MTV sucks at the moment. Hell, I take that back. It hasn't been a great station in a long time. They seriously need to bring back Beavis and Butthead.

I love the MTV shows like Real World and Battle of the Sexes. I think BET is better than MTV, if u just have regular cable, in videos..but I watch MTV2 and MTV Jams. :D

I always preferred VH1 over MTV. I also like CMT:)

i like mtv. They show good shows like road rules, real world, cribs, battle of the sexes. But some of it is Trash talk!

Any network that airs reality TV. :barf: And MTV seems to have more thatn it's fair share. Anyone watch Married by America last night? "Oh America, please help me in choosing a husband. I'm so desperate and can't go out and find a good enough man myself. Thanks!" :rolleyes: "Oh America, please let the parents pick me. I'm the right man to be a husband and I'll pay her lots of attention and feed her right. Thanks!" Damn, go out and get a pet, not married.

Off topic, but yea, MTV should be renamed Reality TV. It doesn't deserve the music title anymore.

MTV should stop being Prejudice. They say their all about music, Yet all they play is Heavy Metal, Rap and Pop. They need some Tom Jones and Barry Manilow!

BRING BACK HEADBANGER'S BALL!!!!!!!!:rock: :guitar: :guitar: :rock:

I like MTV shows sometimes, like The Osbournes and that new show Big Urban Myth, but I dont like stuff like TRL (cuz they only show 30 friggin seconds of the video!!) I like MTV2 alright, they show better videos in my opinion, but I usually watch MuchMusic USA. They have the best videos on television.

Yeah I agree. MTV is losing its real meaning of MUSIC TELEVISION. I mean I can watch the Real World and all that but like sometimes it just gets to be too much. Like if its a Real World marathon for the whooooooooole day. I only watch MTV for the videos anyway. I don't watch TRL anymore. I used to be obsessed with that show but now I can't even watch it. They don't even play the whole video and its not even like they don't have lots of time for it because they really, really do. But I do like MTV2.

yes MTV sucks

MTV? Excuse me while I.. :barf:

40 year old's don't watch MTV. If you want to see Barry, or Tom go ahead and order VH-1 Classic.

This is Trash Tv! Crap for the mind, there's one million names for it. I hate the way we (the young people today) are referred to as - the MTV Generation, or Generation X etc... by adults and other young people. On tv shows, every teen listens to mtv and gets piercings, is depressed and wears baggy clothes. I hate the whole uniform and their reasons for it- MTV labelled every young person as a lazy punk, and it's getting people to act much more crazy, nowadays you can see 50 year olds being hip, and MTV promotes all this liberalism, too much. I hope MTV goes off air, it's nothing but shows, cartoons, reality (although, Daria was humorous) but MTV created a cult-

I don't really watch MTV all that much anymore. They play too much rap and too many shows that I would not watch. I used to watch it though when they were playing Daria and The Tom Green Show. I'm not exactly into anything that they play now.

I don't really care... MTV is alright it would be nice if they didn't have all those crappy shows and more music videos and programs that actually had to do with music. It's alright though, I watch the videos late at night sometimes.

i think MTV is trash for the mind...Yes MTV is complete garbage since they became Greedy and wanted more money!!

They stayed good though thru the 80s!!

MTV is terrible now. We have a channel called MTV Classic though and I like watching the music videos on there.

MTV was worth watching when they offered something not everybody else had. Had a good thing going and they blew it
