Legend has it that the M in MTV once stood for music

[Her]

So, I'm curious. Does anyone here still watch MTV? At all?

 

[droomph]

Nope, it's just too boring.

But then again, I never watch TV.

 

[Cello]

Only thing I ever watch on there is Fantasy Factory. Other than that, nope.
They only show music very early in the morning now apparently.

I used to watch it back when they had TRL and all the other shows like The Osbournes, Jackass, Punk'd, and Pimp My Ride.

It aired some Boy Meets World episodes earlier today. I was watching some of that, but usually I forget that it exists. It's gone to the dump.

The only time I actually watch MTV is the Video Music Awards. It's the only night MTV actually cared about music.

Though I will admit I do watch Teen Mom and 16 and Pregnant at times. Don't ask me why. I just do. lol

This.

All shows on MTV now are crap and arent entertaining in the slightest.

 

[Ephemeral Euphoria]

I saw it very rarely last year when I occasionally watched a random episode of Jersey Shore with my dad when nothing better was on at the time but now I don't even bother to watch much tv at all to begin with.

 

[Wings Don't Cry]

I use to watch it back when Pimp my ride was still on but now I don't even bother checking to see if anything good is on. I know everyone at my school watches it though since everyone seems to be obsessed with Jersey Shore.

Ya know, I think the M in MTV DID used to stand for music~ It did used to be all music a long time ago... Now they've screwed it up to get other viewers -_-

 

[Madam Cheezy]

Dude....

When I was 13-ish, I would watch it. I'd come home, wait for TRL to end, and then spend an hour or two recording VHSs of my favorite videos. I'd get so excited when one of the awesome videos would come on. Like having a small piece of christmas come to visit for the afternoon. Aah....

Now? Please.
They should change the name entirely. When was the last time they played anything having to do with music? At least VH1 had 'Behind the Music' and the like for a while. (Even though a chunk of that was lame, but, hey, they were trying, right?)

 

[Sydian]

No, I don't like watching underage girls get paid to ruin their lives.

 

[Mr Cat Dog]

I don't care about the debate that MTV should change its name. I don't believe it's even officially called Music Television anymore, so if you just think of it as a collection of letters, it becomes a lot less egregious.

That being said, I haven't watched the channel in years. Years and years and years, in fact.

 

[Livewire_]

In the rare event that I can watch music videos and such, then yeah. Otherwise, I'd kill MTV with fire.

 

[Captain Fabio]

MTV is, what I think, is one of the problems with music today. It is just constant trash being shown.​

​

 

[Guy]

Except for Teen Wolf and the Video Music Awards, I sometimes forget that MTV still exists today. I remember when MTV used to be such a popular channel, and now instead of being known for the music, it's known for the likes of Jersey Shore or 16 & Pregnant. Sigh.

 

[Nick]

I watch MTV 2 for Boy Meets World re-runs from time-to-time. Does that count?

 

[Atomic Pirate]

The last MTV I watched was the newest Beavis and Butt-Head season. But now that it's not coming back for a new season, I find the channel useless. Hell, I find most of what's on TV these days to be complete rubbish.

 

[Mario The World Champion]

The only time I even cared about MTV is when Beavis and Butthead came back. But if somebody here said that they aren't coming back, just kill off MTV for good. They are morons for getting rid of something that people really want to watch!

But we know they won't because people want their fill of Snooki and the rest of those tanned, dim-witted morons.
