I've never watched MTV. I am surprised at your statement that they don't show music videos any more. I'm like you. What do they do now?

I remember the exact date I stopped watching MTV. It was August 1, 1981. I was at a party at a friends house and the intro to “You better run” from Pat Benatar started playing. Friend says you missed the first song.

After the video ended we all looked at each other and tossed Zeppelin 4 on the record player.

Same here.

That much human stupidity on display was too much for even me to take. I could see one or two "music scene" type shows to let fans know who was cutting a new album or planning a new tour, but Big Brother? Jack Ass? Re-runs of That 70's Show?

Big ol' WTF there... Go back to playing artsy-fartsy POlice videos and weird hard rock hair bands.

Reality sleeze TV

Making stars out of The Situation and Snooki.

Which I would gladly watch over Obama any day.
