I’m 45 and i remember growing up in the 80’s and 90’s MTV was the coolest channel I had ever seen..It sucked when it started to change from music to reality TV..Now all I see on there is Ridiculousness and Catfish..Can’t believe that something that started off so cool is so horrible now
Mtv was the fastest way for me to look up new music that time but now everyone could easily watch it through youtube. Technology brings big impact but i miss the old moments. So nostalgic
I too lived through 80s MTV in my childhood and 90s MTV in my formative years. Don't know that i agree with some of this info... yeah, the Real World created the downward spiral that became "reality TV", but I don't know that people were wanting more of it in the way they got it in the years to come. The decision to go full reality TV was more of an executive push than a necessity in viewership. Also, early MTV days were pretty fruitful... people didn't think it was boring prior to Thriller (81-83ish)? It was pretty much a success that they built upon from its inception.
If you really wanna travel back in time, I remember getting these Fox Kids textbook protectors from a teacher. They were these poster-like sheets you folded around your textbook. I got one from the Spy Dogs cartoon, I forgot what the other one was though.
It kind of figures that someone who shows a map of Georgia (the country in Europe) when talking about Georgia (US State) would get so much history wrong. Although I do love Buc-ees.
I think Nickelodeon started slipping off the moment they decided it was OK for their executives to sexually assault the child actors. I can’t know about that but still pretend it was such a great show. And I think it’s a little weird that even after this shit as well no we still make it seem like this is a great kids network that support kids. Instead of a bunch of adults who paid on his kids financially sexually and otherwise. It’s like we’re endorsing the rape by pretending like it didn’t happen despite the fact that it’s well known. And the fact that it was sent to people who are kids at the time just makes it extra creepy. That’s why child rapist get away with raping kids. Because it’s so unpleasant that we rather pretend like it doesn’t happen in order to allow it to continue. So that way we can keep going on with her pleasant memories. I think that makes us rapists too.
We have traveled south from Ohio and are very impressed with Buc-ee’s. Excellent customer service, ALWAYS CLEAN RESTROOMS and very competitive gas prices. Can’t wait for the Buc-ee’s in Huber Heights, Ohio to open next year! Buc-ee’s Welcome to Ohio!
Animated shows were the only good nickelodeon contribution, the live action shows were all trash and nothing but a platform for creeps to molest the actors.
I worked in Sears HQ between 98 and 03. This video gets so many things wrong. The downfall started under Lacy with the sale of Sears Credit to Citigroup. The credit division printed money for the company. Sears then used the cash to buy a bunch of prime K-mart locations. Then K-mart bought/merged with Sears. Lambert then sucked both companies dry of their assets and let them die a slow death.
As a millennial born in 1992, i was glued to MTV for about 2000-2005. People always say it was way after its golden era and i believe them, but it's not like there was no music being played. I watched HOURS of music videos every day, usually waiting for that one RHCP, Foo Fighters, Linkin Park, Green Day, etc. video to come on, whatever was popping at the moment. Sitting through countless pop, rnb and rap videos from artists i didn't care for to the point that i recognized almost every name in the game. It also became interesting just for the videos themselves, i didn't necessarily need to care about the music. Sure there were lots and lots of reality shows too, most of i couldn't give two craps about but i did enjoy watching Cribs, Pimp My Ride and Punk'd for example. Still, it felt like it was maybe 50-50 between music and shows.
I was there from DAY ONE. And 10 year old me was over the moon. If you had told a 9 year old me one day bored out of my mind at school, that coming this summer I would be sitting in a bean bag watching music all day I woulda crapped my pants. But sure nuff there I was doing just that. Alas…times change, things change, nothing good truly lasts. It’s ironic though that MTV were the first ones to broadcast a reality Tv show. Road Rules. I bet they had no idea they were signing their own death warrant.
I was there when MTV Started. 10 years old and just over the mon obsessed with it from day ONE. IF you HAD TOLD 9 year old me in school one day that coming this summer you can sit in the bean bad and watch music all day I would’ve crapped my pants. Sure nuff. There ya go. But it changed, times change, everything changes. The ironic part is MTV STARTED reality Tv shows with The Real World. Crazy to thing they were signing their own death warrant.
In all seriousness tho music and music culture has went downhill since the 2000s. So it makes sense mtv would ease up on music . It because the music sucks. There are many reasons for this . If rock and roll ever comes back from the dead perhaps mtv will too
MTV early on was very helpful for a young pre-teen like me just getting into rock, as it educated me, never having been to a rock concert in my life, and now all the bands I'd only ever heard on the radio, I could finally see what they looked like. And the information at the bottom of the screen before and after the video was very helpful in knowing the name of the artist and what album the song was from so I would know what to buy the next time I went to the record store. In fact, all the first albums I started buying (or had my parents buy) were from ones I'd seen on MTV in 1981, I could also see what instruments or what kind of guitars the bands were playing so that I could know what kind of guitars sounded best.
MTV in 1981-82 was kinda like watching Sesame Street. The studio scenes would get interrupted by music videos. But you always looked forward to the interruptions! And sometimes the videos would be the same ones played over and over again, but occasionally a new one would pop up. I looked forward to seeing a new one! Early Gen X kids like me had a longer attention span than later generations.
With RU-vid and the ability for people to make playlists of all their favorite music videos, there really isn't the same need for MTV or a channel like it as there was.
