MTV - classic or dud?

no nobody gives two fucks for kennedy.

i had the hugest crush on kennedy for real tho

I always hated her but now I think I am retroactively attracted to her.
Lol nostalgia is weird

find me one post

Well not bitching, but iirc the whole general tone of this recent revive is how much better MTV was in the 90s, right?

always hated her and yes she is a neocon harpy

hey let's not get into this argument because who cares

god i hated kennedy at the time

i mean i'm sure i'd hate her now, too, maybe even more, but she's not showing up on my tv six hours per day

In a 2000 interview she is quoted as saying that she is a registered Republican but an ideological libertarian.

In a 2010 interview on Fox Business's Freedom Watch she discussed her libertarian views with Judge Andrew Napolitano.

Well not bitching, but iirc the whole general tone of this recent revive is how much better MTV was in the 90s, right?

anyway, despite markers' + hoos' protests, i think objectively speaking jackass is the legacy of mtv for our gen of teenagers, and it's a pretty damn good one!

i like jersey shore as much as the next person, but jackass >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

kennedy was always the worst

i don't care if kennedy voted for the fuckin lizard people, she was on the top of my 95 smash list

I always hated her so much. She was always trying way too hard to be alt when you know that in her tiny blackened soul she secretly loved Nelson.

Oh wow, you got me there Whiney "YOU LOSE! I WIN!", "winning" an "argument" like a four year-old. I hate you so much sometimes.

Oh I remember that Ringwald thing! That was deep in the depths of my huge crush on her.

i used to spend a lot of my lunch time in, like, 7th(?) or 8th(?) (or both?) grade or talking about music videos w/ one of my best friends iirc -- good times

she is dressed like andie in pretty in pink

Like Whiney is the premiere example of an intelligent dude that should never post on a message board because he completely undercuts all the good crit-work he does by behaving like a complete fucking tool.

other mtv shows important 2 me: the ashlee simpson show, the assistant (andy dick's show)

guys can we get away from internet arguing and children posting about turn-of-the-millennium mtv and back to griping about alternative nation vjs

if it means stanning for the ashlee simpson show i am happy to be a withered old man with a boner for molly ringwald

We need some of Scott's Kari Wurher anecdotes

It was one thing to see all the clips from when I was a regular viewer, but there was this weird elastic disconnect of nostalgia happening on me last night while watching those post-90s clips, when I had finally outgrown MTV and wasn't paying attention to it anymore. Even though I never watched Jackass or Eminem on the Video Awards, I knew at the time who they were of course. To me, that much time hasn't gone by since they first aired, but yep, 10 years. It's like when the NFL Channel shows month-old games and they're all played on filmstock, slightly in slow motion.

Seeing "Hit Me Baby One More Time' on an episode of TRL reminded me of 9/11. Weird how things get crosswired.

Oh, and how I have been spoiled on HDTV. They may as well have been playing herky-jerky sepia movies from the Edison era when showing some of those in-studio clips.

carson daly settled so comfortably into his younger more boring nu-dick clark persona that it almost seems weird that he was on MTV at all now

yeah i have to admit that when carson was on trl i kinda thought he projected a subtly above-it-all attitude but i guess he was just waiting to become showbiz shill dude all along

one of my fave trl moments was when he tried to drop a joke about rush

tom green went on trl 2 retire the bum bum song iirc

i remember the horror as if it was yesterday.

Do you remember the video for you are not alone?

ARen't they naked in a bathtub together?

man i wish there was a better clip of pee-wee's post-bust vma's appearance. that made me so happy.

I think I still have a VHS copy of the MTV Awards with the MJ kiss somewhere. That was also the one where Sandra Bullock was presenting with someone (I want to say Adam Sandler) and she misread the cue on the teleprompter and asked Adam what it was like to kiss Keanu Reeves. He handlded it pretty well and riffed about how safe he felt in Keanu's arms.

never forget, kids
