“with programs like “Jersey Shore” and “Teen Mom” on MTV, “SpongeBob SquarePants”
Yes, indeed quite a legacy.
Remember when MTV actually had music on it?
Good. MTV promotes filth. The garbage coming off that channel makes me ill. Although I used to watch Spongebo with my young daughter.
I wouldn’t want having created the likes of Snookie on MY resume, thank you. Not something she should be proud of.
These days MTV offers its viewers nothing but garbage.
She also eviscerated VH1. Now she can spread her swill to even more places on the dial. She’s like a deadly virus that keeps spreading. Btw Dennis Miller had a good line recently when he called Osama Bin Laden, SpongeBomb SquarePants.
I don’t believe for one second that McGrath ‘resigned.’ Nobody, but nobody, leaves these jobs except with pink slip in hand or in handcuffs or in an ambulance.
There’s more to this story.
“Skins” blowback?
She was the person responsible for getting rid of most music videos on the Music Television channel. She hated music videos. She hated music. She loved “reality” shows.
First thing, “It’s no longer ‘Music Television’, it’s just MTV.”
Though, in all fairness, the record labels were getting *way* too greedy at that point. They didn’t realize that Music Television was the biggest and best free advertisement they could possibly get, and wanted MTV and VH1 to pay them enormous royalties to air the record label ads.
But the record labels are masters at destroying opportunity because of greed to the point where they demand ALL money from everything.
As evidence of this, most people who lived through the ‘80’s can name off dozens of artists and performers from that time. The ‘90’s less so, because MTV decided to play less mainstream music, and almost none after 2000.
Especially after Judy McGrath became the boss. The day the music died.
Good riddance.
At least Spongebob Squarepants has his pants on. Likely the only show on MTV where that is the case.
