It's just a little bit overrated

i hate mtv, first of all because all they play is rap, this wouldnt bother just the fact that rap seems to have taken over, and people wont just let like what you like. also it has the shows of spoiled girls having a birthday... for one thing i dont want to see that but if other people do than let it be

do not get me started on MTV they have no souls for music
someone explain how Made, Punked, Tila Tequila, etc. has to do with Music Television and i am ashamed that i know this because i don't even watch MTV

Becuase maybe its like rap and some americans or other people don't like it , or their parents don;t let them because the songs usally curse.

It makes everything mainstream including Job For A Cowboy

MTV seems to show a lot of rap and hip hop. I'm not very fond of rap, but hip hop is fine. Some of the shows are somewhat entertaining, but it doesn't really promote anything good. They make dating look like picking fruit from a grocery store. It may be today's teen culture, but some people just don't like it.

Well, what I don't hate MTV except unlike MYX when a song is playing they put lyrics, and it's a good idea, but MTV has a good quality! Anyway, I like MTV because of the show, Punk'd, I Bet You Will and Pimp My Ride! Oh, and also Boiling Point! Man those show are awesome! Not just a place for music videos, but some awesome shows! Sigh, well, I don't really know why do some people hate MTV, maybe it's the humor? Hmmm, I don't know.

MTV is just another channel that dumbs down our society for our impending enslavement.

Grimlok--well said.



MTV is full of dime a dozen wannabe rock stars, and skanks. Wannabe gangsters, and everything else that's wrong with this society. The standardization of poor judgement and even poorer Role Models has brought this society one step closer to the grave.

MTV & VH1 are beginning to put nothing but crap out.

I hardly watch them now at all ..

I can put up with MTV2 && that's about it.

because its not really music television anymore it's a whole bunch of shows about rich people but jackass is still like there best show

well all it is now a days is reality shows....its not even mtv and when they do put on music its over played i guess

I don't hate MTV at all it just gets old if you have been watching it for 3 years straight its pretty good though. Even though there are way more funnier shows it rocks

whatmtv is mad it's got some music and a lot of funny junk, i like ntv's scarred, the show where people stack there bikes and brake there bones and stufff.

mtv has gotten really bad. the real world is the msot fake peace of crap ive ever seen and wild'n out is pretty cool though.

if they were to stop airing all the reallity (bull shit) shows and spread out the type of music they played.

i mean i dont got nothing against rap and all but thats all they ever play. i mean i can still look foward to headbangers ball on saturdays, but still

they need to stop playing all the rap and play alittle more genre's then i will start to watch it again. fuse is actually starting to turn into mtv too
