I don't watch MTV too much, but it seems like every single time I turn to it, they are never showing any music videos. I happen to catch TRL every once in a while, but usually, they are just showin "Yo mama" "Room raiders" "Date my mom" or somethin like that. How many hours a day do they show music videos now?

They show a couple of hours of music videos in the morning.

I dunno wtf happened to MTV over the last 10-15 years...They should just rename it to "The Pop Channel" or some shit like that.

It's sad. They only show music videos on that TRL crap. If you wanna see a video, you gotta stay up til 3am.
MTV2, which was suppose to be strictly music, has the same schedule now.

I read that they are formatting MTV targeting girls, and MTV2 for guys. MTV is fucking horrible - can't even remember the last time i've watched it. And they should change it to PTV like NIK said. Shit's horrible.

That makes sense. I can see how MTV is targeted for girls with all that Laguna Beach My Sweet 16 bullshit.
I pretty much never watch MTV unless I'm doin cardio at the gym. VH1 is on some supreme bullshit too.

Ive noticed over the past month that VH1 is starting to get back into the music, not like they used to be but i see music a little more on vh1. But with the way the music industry is now, do you really want to see music videos anymore. Its all trash.

Ya'll don't get MTV Jams?

dont be hatin on super sweet 16 homie
me and the homie hempside kick back and watch that shit

Well most of their programs are cool imo so I don't mind.I mean, it's not like we're missing anything, the music they play sucks anyways.
-
I don't really have a problem with the shows they show, but I was just wonderin when I was watching the other day.
One reason I assume they don't show videos as much is because viewers can watch whatever music videos they want to on the internet, so the net probably changed the whole game up. They probably get lower ratings on the shows that show just videos, and I am sure that the other shows generate more talk and revenue for them.
One thing I can give props to them for is that they ALWAYS play west coast songs in the backgrounds of their shows...I've heard several songs on there that I rarely heard outside of L.A., such as #2 off Bad Azz Personal Business and "How we get down", Sly Boogy "That's my name", and some other tracks.

I've noticed that too. But since the only other "music" channel I watch is BET (which does nothing but rides the south's dick) I thought it was somewhat normal.

that's funny man, i was thinking the same thing the other day. i've also heard a few of knoc's songs in the backround of misc. shows. every now and then i get kinda surprised. it's kinda sad that our "westcoast hits" get thrown into the backround of cribs episodes :-\ i bet 95% of people think it's just some random beat.

I've heard "Mass Appeal" in the backround of some of their shows...they've still got a couple heads running around.

The sad thing is it's a cheap way for them to not acknowledge the people behind the music.

Does MTV still show music videos??
hm...that's a good question
-
my friend was actually talkin about this a couple days ago. it's shitass that they've gone completely mainstream pop on the public. but like it was said b4, only time u can watch videos is from like 3 am - 10 am.
-
i don't really blame mtv for not showing music videos anymore
-most music that's out sucks dick anyway
1. no one is making any good videos, it's all the same, how many cars and women u can get
2. all the artists that make good videos are usually so underground or werid for most people
3. it's not profitable to just show music videos
-you can sell pop culture better than you can sell pop records
1. mtv just showing music videos made ARTISITS rich
2. mtv showing only shows , makes THEM rich, they can sell dvds merchandise, movie rights , endorsements, ect.
3. they can cater to advertisers better because they are more in control over what is being broadcasts
- don't lie, ALOT of those MTV shows are pretty cool
1. jack ass
2. viva la bam
3. andy milinakus
4. wild boys
5. beavis and butthead
6. tom green
7. wonder showzen
8. pimp my ride
9. punk'd (the first time around is pretty cool
10. cribs
11. the osbournes
ect.
i can't lie the first channel (maybe it's just out of habbit) i've put on everyday since i can remember has been MTV
-
yea mtv has changed alot over the past years...
-
over here "MTV Hits" is now the MTV channel that plays music videos non stop..
-
I understand what a lot of you people are saying about why MTV doesn't play much music videos. But the fact remains that MTV stands for Music Television. I'm not saying they need to show music videos all day like they use to, but they should still have a suffiecent amount of music progams. I'd even say shows like the osburnes and pimp my ride are music shows because they feature musicans. If they want to show all non-music shows then they should change there names and stop frontin'.

Since when has MTV cared about quality of a music video?
-

Yes. They have a MTV, MTV2, MTV Jams, & a MTV Hits.
And remember when VH1 used to be on MTV? ;D They got VH1 Classics, VH1 Country and VH1 Soul.
Then of course BET.
All I watch is Music Videos. TV sucks now at days.

MTV has been like this for almost a decade. This is nothing new.
