MTV started to lose my interest when grunge became the next 'big' thing. Gone were the 80's clothes, hairstyles, music, and party attitudes. The novelty wore off quick when a gaggle of morose, flannel-clad pseudo-hippies from the Northwest dominated every minute of airtime and TV and terrestrial radio. By the time Beavis and Butthead was cancelled, I was already over the horizon.

David Lee Roth, summed up the 80s the best, "The music smiled, the hair smiled, and everyone smiled".

It doesn’t take long to tire of some whiny punk talk about how much life sucks while they’re raking in cash.
