MTV doesn’t love you like it used to.


You know I’m telling you the truth. MTV hasn’t cared about you since Carson Daly left for a real job at NBC. Want proof? The Hills. Need more? Bromance. Nail in the Coffin? Jersey GODDAMN Shore. How many times have you been with a group on friends, filled to MTV, and hit the old man preface, “I remember when..” and finished with “MTV used to show videos…” What the hell happened? Did I wake up and become an old hater one day, or did they decide we were getting enough free music on the internet? Whatever the case may be, the shift in programming, and aside from the family Simmons the general lack of originality and quality seemed to spit in the face on the people that made MTV huge. What’s worse, I cant log onto Facebook without someone referencing the bad programming as if it had any type on redeeming value. “You won’t believe what the situation did tonight..” WHAT? Get outta here. The reason MTV continues to produce bad television is that we (aka ya’ll) continue to support it. Take a stand! Turn off the reality whoring that is Viacom programming and, shit I dunno, but switch that shit up… you are doing us all a disservice.
