Born in Birmingham in 1957, Hunter went on to graduate in 1979 from Millsaps College in Jackson, Mississippi. He pursued acting for a while, earning a role in the video for David Bowie's "Fashion" before being tapped to join the fledgling MTV network.

but for me, it hasn't always been shit. I grew up in small town USA, and aside from my parents CSNY-laden vinyl, there wasn't much else influencing my early musical taste. MTV was a good source then..
I think they have unarguably declined though, with their current special being over-priveledged white girls. Come to think about it, it was always about over-priveledged white girls...MTV just used to be better at the shell game. Anyway..it still introduced me to The Smiths. What else would have brought that to the rural northwest?

I remember when MTV2 europe started, that was actually pretty great. You could access the website and see a full database of all their videos and put together your own playlist of 13 songs (I think it was 13). They'd choose ones and play them. Saw some random old alternative videos on that. MTV people were on CNN today talking about this new thing they have that's meant to challenge MySpace/Youtube. I'm ignorant of this thing.
xpost UGH... but someone needs to do more photoshopping of mullets on to people....

The best way to get your content on the telly is to promote it as much as possible on the site. However, first you must make something that is a little bit cool (no nudity though, this is a family show). Once our video upload tool is available you’ll be able to stick it on your page and share it around with all your friends. The more views you get the more chance you have of getting on the big screen.
This sounds horrible, forget it, I'm not touching this thing. I find those video blogs where 15 year olds bitch about things on youtube totally weird and a little scary. Gimme VJs anyday.
in fact I sort of miss the hot MTV Europe VJs.
I used to be one of "the kids"..

The REAL question is, when did VH1 turn to shit? I remember the days when they had this uber-clever commercial that had kitchen-themed visual representations of all the music they refused to play ("No heavy metal!", cue pots & pans & whatnot; "No rap!", cue Saran-wrap; "No grunge!", cue dishes covered in grime). Then I remember when they played a Puff Daddy video or something and I was like "Aw shit, VH1, you mothafuckas SOLD OUT!"

For about a year, I'd come home at 2 or 3 in the morning, and watch an episode or two of Undressed and Dido's "Thank You" would be on VH1 at least twice an hour.

They eventually bled all possibility for boredom from the show by casting fuck-ups and sociopaths and bimbos and himbos, and gave them lots of shit to do like starting businesses and what not, and as a consequence, the show became extremely boring.

But it's great to look back at the early careers of rising actors who did Undressed and laugh at them for doing what was some sort of hybrid of softcore pornography and a soap opera.
