MTV's 20th Birthday

[opiate]

Did anyone watch it? I thought it rocked! Kid Rock's president song was the best...

MTV is the most positive real life network out of all of them. I cannot stand watching NBC, CBS, ABC....they all suck a$$.

Wha'd you like about it?

dude, mtv bites. It used to be the best. it started going downhill in the early 90's

a little after that, VH1 became the channel to watch. it plays the best music

Wow that's wierd. I thought those channels were bringing you the news... you know REAL LIFE. As for me I don't watch much tv. I started hating MTV in the early 90's and stopped watching it. Now the only things I watch are the news, movies, and animal planet. Hey, quit your laughing I like animals. Anyhow, don't mean to feed a flame war and hope this post doesn't turn into one but IMO MTV sucks.... bad.

Im a guy that loved the "80's" style rock so dont get me started on how MTV killed the style. Needless to say I dont watch it much

poetry. they dont sing.MTV is a little to young

Well, the only thing I can say is... If you don't watch it then how do you know it sucks so bad?

The cable system I had in 81 was one of the first to pick up MTV. I remember the launch. For several years through the 80's I liked it. I still remember Van Halen - Jump and Hot for Teacher , Bruce Springsteen - Dancing in the Dark and Glory Days, Robert Palmer - Addicted to Love and Peter Gabriel - Sledgehammer (awesome for it's time). There are more 2 numerous to mention. Then those morphed into VH1 and now I find myself watching MTV very rarely now.

MTV??? you mean RTV...Rapp Television that's about what it is!!
Hey I remember when MTV first aired and in it's present form it SUCKS!!!
And don't tell me I haven't tried to watch it cause I have.
I don't see how you can compare news channels to music channels anyway...that doesn't even make sense.

Let me clarify my statement above for the Windriver forum critics.

What I meant was that if I'm watching TV I would rather watch MTV because the NBC, CBS and ABC channels feed you bloated, political, over rated news.

Yes, MTV does play allot of today's more trendy music. I'm not really a trendy person but I do like Hip-Hop, RAP, R&B and mostly ROCK especially being a guitar player for 11 years. If rock is the only music you listen to then I would suggest expanding your mind. Hey, maybe next time your post will be more positive and I won't have to slam you...


Gee wiz, these forums really do suck now. Lighten the F**K up people!

I'm out...

[Budster64]

Hey Opiate...it seems that whenever anyone disagrees with you the forum s*cks. Well my friend life is full of disagreements deal with it!.
I have been disagreed with many times but I don't sit here telling people to "lighten up" I agree to disagree and let it go at that. You need a bit of maturity I would say. I mean that as contructive criticism not as a flame. But alas I just don't think you will see it this way.

I watch MTV occassionally, and I watch MTV2 quite a bit. There is a big difference between the two. MTV2 actually plays videos!!!! It's great. MTV has become quite pompous. Eventually you too will become bored with their style and move on to other sources of entertainment.
